Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans South Carolina: 
Definitions and General Requirements

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: The EPA is proposing to approve the State Implementation Plan 
(SIP) revisions submitted by the South Carolina Department of Health 
and Environmental Control (SC DHEC) on November 14, 2003, for the 
purpose of clarifying current regulations and ensuring consistency 
between State and Federal regulations. The proposed revisions consist 
of those published in the South Carolina State Register on August 28, 
1998 and June 25, 1999, revising Regulation 61-62.1 Definitions and 
General Requirements. 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receives adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and 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 February 25, 
2005.

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.

rule, ADDRESSES section which is published in the Rules section of this 
Federal Register.
