ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Part 52

[Region VII Docket No. 056-1056b; FRL-6205-9]


Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans; State of 
Missouri

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: The EPA proposes to approve the State Implementation Plan 
(SIP) revision submitted by the state of Missouri except Section (9). 
This revision makes minor corrections to the ``Construction Permits 
Required'' rule to increase readability, correct typographical and 
punctuation errors, and maintain consistency with the Federal 
regulations.
    In the final rules section of the Federal Register the EPA is 
approving the state's SIP revision as a direct final rule without prior 
proposal because the Agency views this as a noncontroversial revision 
amendment and anticipates no relevant 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 the direct final 
rule, no further activity is contemplated. If the EPA receives relevant 
adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn, and all 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 21, 1999.

ADDRESSES: Comments may be mailed to Kim Johnson, Environmental 
Protection Agency, Air Planning and Development Branch, 726 Minnesota 
Avenue, Kansas City, Kansas 66101.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Kim Johnson at (913) 551-7975.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: See the information provided in the direct 
final rule which is located in the rules section of the Federal 
Register.

    Dated: December 9, 1998.

Regional Administrator, Region VII.
