ACTION: Proposed rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: EPA proposes to approve the State Implementation Plan (SIP)
revision submitted by the state of Missouri pertaining to an update to
a St. Louis city SIP-approved ordinance, and permit. The effect of this
action is to ensure that the SIP is current and consistent with the
revised St. Louis city ordinance and permit and are thus Federally
enforceable.

January 8, 2004.
ADDRESSES: Comments may be submitted either by mail or electronically.
Written comments should be mailed to Wayne Kaiser, Environmental
Protection Agency, Air Planning and Development Branch, 901 North 5th

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the final rules section of the Federal
Register, EPA is approving the state's SIP 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adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all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
[[Page 68580]]
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: November 18, 2003.
