SUMMARY: Pursuant to section 112(l) of the 1990 Clean Air Act, EPA
granted delegation of specific national emission standards for
hazardous air pollutants (NESHAP) to the Arizona Department of
Environmental Quality on June 4, 2008, and to the Pima County
Department of Environmental Quality on June 16, 2008. EPA is proposing
to revise the Code of Federal Regulations to reflect the current
delegation status of NESHAP in Arizona.
DATES: Any comments on this proposal must arrive by September 15, 2008.
ADDRESSES: Submit comments, identified by docket number EPA-R09-OAR-

able to consider your comment.

in the docket are listed in the index, some information may be publicly
available only at the hard copy location (e.g., copyrighted material),

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This document concerns the delegation of
unchanged NESHAP to the Arizona Department of Environmental Quality and
the Pima County Department of Environmental Quality. In the Rules and
Regulations section of this Federal Register, EPA is amending
regulations to reflect the current delegation status of NESHAP in
Arizona. EPA is taking direct final action without prior proposal
because the Agency believes this action is not controversial. If we
receive adverse comments, however, we will publish a timely withdrawal
of the direct final rule and address the comments in subsequent action
based on this proposed rule. 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, we may adopt
as final those provisions of the rule that are not the subject of an
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.
Authority: This action is issued under the authority of Section
112 of the Clean Air Act, as amended, 42 U.S.C. 7412.
Dated: July 25, 2008.
Amy Zimpfer,
Acting Director, Air Division, Region IX.
