ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 70
[EPA-R09-OAR-2007-0090; FRL-8303-4]
Clean Air Act Proposed Full Approval of Revisions to the State of
Hawaii Operating Permit Program
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve revisions to the State of Hawaii's
(``Hawaii'' or ``State'') operating permit program that amend Hawaii's
regulations for insignificant emissions units (IEUs). In an April 1,
2002 Notice of Deficiency published in the Federal Register, EPA
notified Hawaii of EPA's finding that Hawaii's provisions for IEUs did
not meet minimum Federal requirements. Hawaii has revised its program
to correct the deficiency identified in the Notice of Deficiency and
this action proposes full approval of those revisions.
DATES: Written comments must be received by May 21, 2007.
ADDRESSES: Submit comments, identified by docket number EPA-R09-OAR-
2007-0090, by one of the following methods:

Instructions: All comments will be included in the public docket
without change and may be made available online at http://www.regulations.gov,
including any personal information provided, unless the comment
includes Confidential Business Information (CBI) or other information
whose disclosure is restricted by statute. Information that you
consider CBI or otherwise protected should be clearly identified as
such and should not be submitted through http://www.regulations.gov or e-mail.
http://www.regulations.gov is an ``anonymous access'' system, and EPA will not

body of your comment. If you send e-mail directly to EPA, your e-mail
address will be automatically captured and included as part of the
public comment. If EPA cannot read your comment due to technical
difficulties and cannot contact you for clarification, EPA may not be
able to consider your comment.
Docket: The index to the docket for this action is available
electronically at http://www.regulations.gov and in hard copy at EPA Region
IX, 75 Hawthorne Street, San Francisco, California. While all documents
in the docket are listed in the index, some information may be publicly
available only at the hard copy location (e.g., copyrighted material),
and some may not be publicly available in either location (e.g., CBI).

during normal business hours with the contact listed in the FOR FURTHER
INFORMATION CONTACT section.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Robert Baker, EPA Region IX, at (415)

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This proposal addresses revisions to the
following local rule, 11-60.1-82(e), in State of Hawaii operating
permits program. In the Rules and Regulations section of this Federal
Register, we are approving the revision in direct final action without
prior proposal because we believe the revisions made to the program to
resolve the Notice of Deficiency are 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, we may adopt as
final those provisions of the revision that are not the subject of the
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: April 4, 2007.
Jane Diamond,
Acting Regional Administrator, Region IX.
