ACTION: Proposed rule.

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve the July 6, 2000, Ohio site-
specific State Implementation Plan (SIP) revision revising Volatile 
Organic Compound (VOC) Reasonably Available Control Technology (RACT) 
requirements for Morgan Adhesives Company in Stow, Ohio. The SIP 
revision establishes an alternative control strategy for limiting VOC 
emissions from coating lines at its pressure sensitive tape and label 
manufacturing plant in Stow.
    In the final rules section of this Federal Register, the EPA is 
approving the State's request as a direct final rule without prior 
proposal because EPA views this action as noncontroversial and 
anticipates no adverse comments. A

detailed rationale for approving the State's request is set forth in 
the direct final rule. The direct final rule will become effective 
without further notice unless the Agency receives relevant adverse 
written comment on this action. Should the Agency receive such comment, 
it will publish a final rule informing the public that the direct final 
rule will not take effect and such public comment received will be 
addressed in a subsequent final rule based on this proposed rule. If no 
adverse written comments are received, the direct final rule will take 
effect on the date stated in that document and no further activity will 
be taken on this proposed rule. EPA does not plan to institute a second 
comment period on this action. Any parties interested in commenting on 
this action should do so at this time.

DATES: Written comments must be received on or before May 17, 2001.
