40 CFR Part 52

[PA 201-4202b; FRL-7473-1]


Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans; 
Pennsylvania; NOX RACT Determinations for General Electric 
Transportation Systems

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA proposes to approve the State Implementation Plan (SIP) 
revision submitted by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania for the purpose 
of establishing reasonably available control technology (RACT) 
determinations for General Electric Transportation Systems (GETS). GETS 
is a major source of nitrogen oxides (NOX) located in Erie 
County, Pennsylvania. In the Final Rules section of this Federal 
Register, EPA is approving the State's SIP submittal 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the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments 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. EPA will not institute a second comment period.
