ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Part 52

[PA203-4207b; FRL-7494-3]


Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans; 
Pennsylvania; NOX RACT Determinations for Lafayette College

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 to establish and 
require reasonably available control technology (RACT) requirements for 
Lafayette College, Easton Campus. Lafayette College, Easton Campus, is 
a major source of nitrogen oxides (NOX) located in 
Northampton County, Pennsylvania. In the Final Rules section of this 
Federal Register, EPA is approving the Commonwealth'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the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments 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. EPA will not institute a second comment period. Any 
parties interested in commenting on this action should do so at this 
time.

DATES: Comments must be received in writing by June 19, 2003.

ADDRESSES: Written comments should be addressed to Makeba Morris, 
Acting Branch Chief, Air Quality Planning and Information Services 
Branch, Mailcode 3AP21, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region 
III, 1650 Arch Street, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19103. Copies of the 
documents relevant to this action are available for public inspection 
during normal business hours at the Air Protection Division, U.S. 
Environmental Protection Agency, Region III, 1650 Arch Street, 
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19103; and the Pennsylvania Department of 
Environmental Resources, Bureau of Air Quality Control, PO Box 8468, 
400 Market Street, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania 17105.
