ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Part 52

[MN68-01b; FRL-6991-8]


Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans; Minnesota

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: We are proposing to approve a State Implementation Plan (SIP) 
revision for Dakota County, Minnesota, for the control of emissions of 
sulfur dioxide (SO2) in the Pine Bend Area of Rosemount. The 
site-specific SIP revision for Koch Petroleum Group, LP (Koch) was 
submitted by the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency on December 20, 
2000, and is approvable because it satisfies the requirements of the 
Clean Air Act. Specifically, EPA is proposing to approve into the 
SO2 SIP Amendment No. 4 to the Administrative Order for 
Koch. In the final rules section of this Federal Register, we are 
approving the SIP revision as a direct final rule without prior 
proposal, because we view this as a noncontroversial revision amendment 
and anticipate 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 proposed rule, no further activity is 
contemplated in relation to this proposed rule. If we receive 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comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public 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. We will not 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 July 12, 2001.

ADDRESSES: Written comments should be sent to: Canton T. Nash, Chief, 
Regulation Development Section, Air Programs Branch (AR-18J), EPA 
Region 5, 77 West Jackson Boulevard, Chicago, Illinois 60604-3590.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Christos Panos, Regulation Development 
Section, Air Programs Branch (AR-18J), EPA Region 5, 77 West Jackson 
Boulevard, Chicago, Illinois 60604, (312) 353-8328.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: For additional information, see the Direct 
Final rule document which is located in the Rules section of this 
Federal Register. Copies of the request and the EPA's analysis are
