[EPA-R04-OAR-2006-0650-200705(b); FRL-8464-1]
Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans Kentucky:
Volatile Organic Compound Definition Updates
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve a revision to the Kentucky State
Implementation Plan (SIP) submitted by the Kentucky Environmental and
Public Protection Cabinet on December 14, 2006. The revision includes
changes to the definitions section of Kentucky's Air Quality
Regulations regarding the definition of ``volatile organic compounds,''
which was updated to be consistent with the federal definition. In the
Final Rules Section of this Federal Register, the EPA is approving
Kentucky's SIP revision as a direct final rule without prior proposal
because the Agency views this as a noncontroversial submittal and
anticipates no adverse comments. A detailed rationale for the approval
is set forth in the direct final rule. If adverse comments are received
in response to this rule, no further activity is contemplated. If EPA
receives adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and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 on this document. Any parties interested in commenting
on this document should do so at this time.
DATES: Written comments must be received on or before October 15, 2007.
ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, identified by Docket ID No. ``EPA-R04-
OAR-2006-0650,'' by one of the following methods:
