40 CFR Part 52

[FL-69-1-9940b; FRL-7443-2]


Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans; Florida: 
Approval of Revisions to the Florida State Implementation Plan

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing approval of revision to the Florida State 
Implementation Plan (SIP) submitted on September 7, 1999, by the State 
of Florida through the Florida Department of Environmental Protection 
(FDEP). The purpose of the revisions to rule 62-212.400 is to correct 
discrepancies between State and Federal rule language on exemptions 
from Prevention of Significant Deterioration and to include additional 
provisions.
    In the Final Rules Section of this Federal Register, the EPA is 
approving Florida'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will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be addressed in 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 February 26, 
2003.

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