Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans Tennessee: 
Approval of Revisions to Tennessee Implementation Plan

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: The EPA proposes to approve the State implementation plan 
(SIP) revisions submitted by the State of Tennessee for the purpose of 
revising the regulations for construction and operating permits, 
general provisions and applicability, and conflict of interest in the 
Tennessee SIP. In the Final Rules section of this 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 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the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments 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. The EPA will not institute a second comment period on 
this document. Any parties interested in commenting on this document 
should do so at this time.

DATES: Written comments must be received on or before September 30, 
2002.

ADDRESSES: All comments should be addressed to Steven M. Scofield at 
the EPA, Region 4 Air Planning Branch, 61 Forsyth Street, SW., Atlanta, 
Georgia 30303-8960.
