SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This document concerns the delegation of 
unchanged NESHAP to the Nevada Division of Environmental Protection. In 
the Rules and Regulations section of this Federal Register, EPA is 
amending regulations to reflect the current delegation status of NESHAP 
in Nevada. EPA is taking direct final action without prior proposal 
because the Agency believes this action is not controversial. If we 
receive adverse comments, however, we will publish a timely withdrawal 
of the direct final rule and address the comments in a subsequent 
action based on this proposed rule. Please note that if we receive 
adverse comment on an amendment, paragraph, or section of this rule and 
if that provision may be severed from the remainder of the rule, we may 
adopt as final those provisions of the rule that are not the subject of 
an adverse comment.
    We do not plan to open a second comment period, so anyone 
interested in commenting should do so at this time. If we do not 
receive adverse comments, no further activity is planned. For further 
information, please see the direct final action.

    Dated: February 13, 2012.
Deborah Jordan,
Director, Air Division, Region IX.
