40 CFR Part 52

[FL-078-200335 (b); FRL-7542-1]


Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plan: Revisions to 
Florida State Implementation Plan: Transportation Conformity Rule

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: The EPA is proposing to approve the State Implementation Plan 
(SIP) revision submitted by the State of Florida for the purpose of 
establishing transportation conformity rules. 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 significant, material, and adverse 
comments are received in response to this rule, 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will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be addressed in 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 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 10, 
2003.

ADDRESSES: Comments may be submitted by mail to: Matt Laurita, Air 
Quality Modeling and Transportation Section, Air Planning Branch, Air, 
Pesticides and Toxics Management Division, U.S. Environmental 
Protection Agency Region 4, 61 Forsyth Street,
