ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Parts 52 and 70
[EPA-R07-OAR-2010-0176; FRL-9248-5]
Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans and Operating
Permits Program; State of Missouri
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve a revision to Missouri's State
Implementation Plan (SIP) and Operating Permits Program. EPA is
proposing to approve the rescission of initial compliance dates in the
Missouri SIP. These requirements were established more than thirty
years ago and are obsolete. EPA is also proposing to approve revisions
to the Operating Permits Program to change the reporting threshold for
small sources and remove references to the requirement to annually set
the emission fee. Approval of these revisions will ensure consistency
between the State and the Federally-approved rules.
DATES: Comments on this proposed action must be received in writing by
February 23, 2011.
ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, identified by Docket ID No. EPA-R07-
OAR-2010-0176, by mail to Chrissy Wolfersberger, Environmental
Protection Agency, Air Planning and Development Branch, 901 North 5th
Street, Kansas City, Kansas 66101. Comments may also be submitted
electronically or through hand delivery/courier by following the
detailed instructions in the ADDRESSES section of the direct final rule
located in the rules section of this Federal Register.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Chrissy Wolfersberger at (913) 551-
7864 or by e-mail at [email protected].
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the final rules section of the Federal
Register, EPA is approving the State's SIP and Operating Permits
Program 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withdrawn and all public comments received will be addressed in a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 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: December 27, 2010.
