ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Part 52

[R04-0AR-2003-FL-0001-200414(b); FRL-7643-2]


Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans: Florida; 
Broward County Aviation Department Variance

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 a 
department order granting a variance from Rule 62-252.400 to the 
Broward County Aviation Department. EPA believes that this proposed 
revision to the SIP is approvable based on the June 23, 1993, EPA 
policy memorandum entitled, Impact of the Recent Onboard Decision on 
Stage II Requirements in Moderate Nonattainment Areas which indicates 
that a Stage II program is not a mandatory requirement for areas 
classified ``moderate'' or below, upon EPA's promulgation for On-board 
Refueling Vapor Recovery systems.
    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the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments 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 May 6, 2004.

ADDRESSES: Comments may be submitted by mail to: Sean Lakeman, 
Regulatory Development Section, Air Planning Branch, Air, Pesticides 
and Toxics Management Division, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency,

may also be submitted electronically, or through hand delivery/courier.
