SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The EPA issued ``Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans;
Alaska; Interstate Transport of Pollution'' as a direct final rule on
October 15, 2008, 73 FR 60955. This direct final rule approved the
State of Alaska's demonstration that its emissions do not significantly
contribute to nonattainment or interfere with maintenance of the NAAQS
in another state, or interfere with measures required to be included in
the SIP for any other State to prevent significant deterioration of air
quality or to protect visibility. For more information about this
action, please see the proposed and final rulemaking actions which are
available at www.regulations.gov and also in the Federal Register at 73
FR 60955 and 73 FR 60996.
Need for Correction
As published, the regulatory text in the direct final regulation
contains a minor error that, if not corrected, prevents publication of
the regulatory amendment in the Code of Federal Regulations. EPA finds
that there is good cause to make this correction without providing for
notice and comment because neither notice nor comment is necessary and
would not be in the public interest due to the nature of the correction
which is minor, technical and does not change the obligations already
existing in the rule. EPA finds that the corrections are merely
correcting the numbering in the amendatory language so that the
provision may be published in the Code of Federal Regulations.
Corrections of Publication
In the regulatory text to the direct final rule for ``Approval and
Promulgation of Implementation Plans; Alaska; Interstate Transport of
Pollution,'' October 15, 2008, 73 FR 60955, EPA is correcting an
inadvertent minor error in instruction number 2. Instruction number 2
reads ``Section 52.97 is added to read as follows:'', but in the actual
text just below that statement the added section is designated
inadvertently as ``Section 52.70.'' EPA is correcting this inadvertent
minor error so that the amendatory instruction number 2 continues to
read ``Section 52.97 is added to read as follows:'', but the actual
text just below that statement ``Sec. 52.70'' is changed to read
``Sec. 52.97.''
Sec. 52.97 [Corrected]
In FR Doc. E8-24279 published October 15, 2008 (73 FR 60955), make
the following correction. On page 60957, in the center column, the
section heading following amendatory instruction 2 is corrected to read
as follows:
Sec. 52.97 Interstate Transport for the 1997 8-hour ozone and PM2.5
NAAQS.
