Air Plan Approval; Texas; Emission Statements

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: Pursuant to the Federal Clean Air Act (CAA or the Act), the 
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to approve a portion 
of a State Implementation Plan (SIP) revision submitted by the State of 
Texas for the 2008 8-hour ozone national ambient air quality standards 
(NAAQS). The portion of the SIP revision being approved pertains to CAA 
2008 ozone NAAQS requirement for emission statements in the Dallas/Fort 
Worth ozone nonattainment area (DFW area).

DATES: Written comments should be received on or before January 3, 
2019.

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, identified by EPA-R06-OAR-2018-0676, 
at https://www.regulations.gov or via email to [email protected]. For additional information on how to submit 
comments see 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: Ms. Karolina Ruan Lei, 214-665-7346, 
[email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the final rules section of this Federal 
Register, the EPA is approving the State's SIP submittal as a direct 
rule without prior proposal because the Agency views this as 
noncontroversial submittal and anticipates no adverse comments. 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. If the 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relevant adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and 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 rule. The EPA will not institute a second 
comment period. Any parties interested in commenting on this action 
should do so at this time.
    For additional information, see the direct final rule which is 
located in the rules section of this Federal Register.

    Dated: November 26, 2018.
