ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Part 52

[EPA-R10-OAR-2010-1071; FRL-9919-37-Region 10]


Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans; State of 
Washington; Regional Haze State Implementation Plan; Federal 
Implementation Plan for Best Available Retrofit Technology for Alcoa 
Intalco Operations, Tesoro Refining and Marketing, and Alcoa Wenatchee

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: On June 11, 2014, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) 
published a final rule in the Federal Register concerning, in part, 
promulgation of a Federal Implementation Plan (FIP) provision for 
regional haze in the State of Washington. This action identifies and 
corrects an error in that action by adding the factor to convert from 
tons of sulfur dioxide (SO2) to pounds of SO2 
that was inadvertently left out of the amendatory instructions for the 
FIP for the Alcoa Wenatchee Works.

DATES: Comments must be received on or before December 24, 2014.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: For further information, please see the 
direct final action, of the same title, which is located in the Rules 
section of this Federal Register. The EPA is correcting an error made 
in a final rule (79 FR 33438, June 11, 2014) by adding the conversion 
factor from tons to pounds of SO2 to 40 CFR 
52.2502(b)(1)(i). The EPA is making this correction without prior 
proposal because the EPA views this as a noncontroversial revision and 
anticipates no adverse comments. A detailed rationale for the action is 
set forth in the preamble to the direct final rule. If the EPA receives 
no adverse comments, the EPA will not take further action on this 
proposed rule.
    If the EPA receives adverse comments, the EPA will withdraw the 
direct final rule and it will not take effect. The EPA will address all 
public comments in a subsequent final rule based on this proposed rule. 
The 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 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, the EPA may adopt as final those 
provisions of the rule that are not the subject of an adverse comment.

    Dated: October 27, 2014.
Michelle Pirzadeh,
Acting Regional Administrator, Region 10.
