40 CFR Parts 52 and 70

[EPA-R07-OAR-2008-0614; FRL-8713-9]


Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans and Operating 
Permits Program; State of Missouri

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA proposes to approve a revision to the Missouri State 
Implementation Plan (SIP) and Operating Permits Program. EPA proposes 
to approve a revision to the Missouri rule entitled ``Submission of 
Emission Data, Emission Fees, and Process Information.'' These 
revisions will establish emission fees for the Missouri facilities as 
required annually, align state rule reporting requirements with the 
Federal Consolidated Emission Reporting Rule, and decrease the required 
Emissions Inventory Questionnaire reporting frequency for affected 
installations.

DATES: Comments on this proposed action must be received in writing by 
October 15, 2008.

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, identified by Docket ID No. EPA-R07-
OAR-2008-0614, by mail to Amy Algoe-Eakin, Environmental Protection 
Agency, Air Planning and Development Branch, 901 North 5th Street, 
Kansas City, Kansas 66101. Comments may also be submitted 
electronically or through hand delivery/courier by following the 
detailed instructions in the ADDRESSES section of the direct final rule 
located in the rules section of this Federal Register.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Amy Algoe-Eakin at (913) 551-7942, or 
by e-mail at [email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the final rules section of the Federal 
Register, EPA is approving the state's SIP revision and Title V 
revision as a direct final rule without prior proposal because the 
Agency views this as a noncontroversial revision amendment and 
anticipates no relevant adverse comments to this action. A detailed 
rationale for the approval is set forth in the direct final rule. If no 
relevant adverse comments are received in response to this action, no 
further activity is contemplated in relation to this action. If EPA 
receives relevant 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withdrawn and all public comments received will be addressed in a 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 action. EPA will not 
institute a second comment period on this action. Any parties 
interested in commenting on this action should do so at this time. 
Please note that if EPA receives adverse comment on part of this rule 
and if that part can be severed from the remainder of the rule, EPA may 
adopt as final those parts of the rule that are not the subject of an 
adverse comment. For additional information, see the direct final rule 
which is located in the rules section of this Federal Register.

    Dated: September 4, 2008.

Regional Administrator, Region 7.
