ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Part 52

[Region VII Docket No. MO-057-1057b; FRL-6196-9]


Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans; State of 
Missouri

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The EPA proposes to approve new Missouri rule 10 CSR 10-6.330 
entitled ``Restriction of Emissions from Batch-Type Charcoal Kilns'' as 
a revision to the Missouri SIP. This rule requires batch-type charcoal 
kilns to substantially reduce emissions of particulate matter, volatile 
organic compounds, and carbon monoxide. In the Final Rules section of 
this Federal Register, the EPA is approving the state's SIP submittal 
as a direct final rule without prior proposal because the Agency views 
this as a noncontroversial submittal and anticipates no adverse 
comments. A detailed rationale for the approval is set forth in the 
direct final rule. If no adverse comments are received in response to 
this action, no further activity is contemplated. If the EPA receives 
adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all 
public comments received will be addressed in a subsequent final rule 
based on this proposed rule. The EPA will not institute a second 
comment period. Any parties interested in commenting on this action 
should do so at this time.

DATES: Written comments must be received on or before January 7, 1999.

ADDRESSES: All comments should be addressed to: Joshua A. Tapp, 
Environmental Protection Agency, Air Branch, 726 Minnesota Avenue, 
Kansas City, Kansas 66101.
    Copies of the state submittal(s) are available at the following 
addresses for inspection during normal business hours: Environmental 
Protection Agency, Air Planning and Development Branch, 726 Minnesota 
Avenue, Kansas City, Kansas 66101.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Joshua A. Tapp at (913) 551-7606.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: For additional information see the direct 
final rule which is located in the Rules section of this Federal 
Register.
