40 CFR Parts 52 and 70

[MO 166-1166; FRL-7411-9]


Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans and Operating 
Permits Program; State of Missouri

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA proposes to approve a revision to the Missouri State 
Implementation Plan (SIP) and Operating Permits Program. EPA is 
approving a revision to Missouri rule ``Submission of Emission Data, 
Emission Fees, and Process Information.'' This revision will ensure 
consistency between the state and Federally-approved rules, and ensure 
Federal enforceability of the state's air program rule revision.
    In the final rules section of this Federal Register issue, EPA is 
approving the state's submittal as a direct final rule without prior 
proposal because the Agency views this as a noncontroversial revision 
amendment and anticipates no relevant adverse comments to this action. 
A detailed rationale for the approval is set forth in the direct final 
rule. If no relevant adverse comments are received in response to this 
action, no further activity is contemplated in relation to this action. 
If 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be withdrawn and all public comments received will be addressed in a 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 action. EPA 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: Comments on this proposed action must be received in writing by 
December 23, 2002.

ADDRESSES: Comments may be mailed to Wayne Kaiser, Environmental 
Protection Agency, Air Planning and Development Branch, 901 North 5th 
Street, Kansas City, Kansas 66101.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Wayne Kaiser at (913) 551-7603.

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

    Dated: November 12, 2002.

Regional Administrator, Region 7.
