ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Part 52

[WV045-6012b; FRL-6730-2]


Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans; 
West Virginia; Revision to the State Implementation Plan (SIP) 
Addressing Sulfur Dioxide in Marshall County

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA proposes to approve the State Implementation Plan (SIP) 
revision submitted by the State of West Virginia for the purpose of 
establishing federally enforceable sulfur dioxide emission limits at 
three facilities in Marshall County. In the Final Rules section of this 
Federal Register, 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 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the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments 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. EPA will not institute a second comment period. Any 
parties interested in commenting on this action should do so at this 
time.

DATES: Comments must be received in writing by September 1, 2000.

ADDRESSES: Written comments should be addressed to Ms. Makeba Morris, 
Chief, Technical Assessment Branch, Mailcode 3AP22, U.S. Environmental 
Protection Agency, Region III, 1650 Arch Street, Philadelphia, 
Pennsylvania 19103. Copies of the documents relevant to this action are 
available for public inspection during normal business hours at the Air 
Protection Division, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region III, 
1650 Arch Street, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19103; and the West 
Virginia Department of Environmental Protection, Office of Air Quality, 
1558 Washington Street, East, Charleston, West Virginia, 25311.
