40 CFR Part 52

[EPA-R08-OAR-2014-0187; FRL-9931-36-Region 8]

Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans; Wyoming; 
Revisions to SO2 Ambient Standards

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency.

ACTION: Proposed rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to 
approve changes to Wyoming's State Implementation Plan (SIP) that 
update its ambient air quality standards with regard to the 1-hour 
sulfur dioxide (SO2) and the secondary SO2 
National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS). On February 7, 2014, 
the Wyoming Department of Environmental Quality (WDEQ) submitted to EPA 
revisions to the Wyoming SIP. Specifically, the State revised Wyoming 
Air Quality Standards and Regulations (WAQSR) Chapter 2, Section 4, 
``Ambient standards for sulfur oxides.'' In this action, EPA is 
proposing to approve some of the revisions provided in the February 
2014 SIP submission. This action is being taken in accordance with 
section 110 of the Clean Air Act (CAA).

DATES: Written comments must be received on or before August 31, 2015.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the ``Rules and Regulations'' section of 
this Federal Register, EPA is approving the State's SIP revision as a 
Direct Final Rule without prior proposal because the Agency views this 
as a noncontroversial SIP revision and anticipates no adverse comments. 
A detailed rationale for the approval is set forth in the preamble to 
the Direct Final Rule.
    If EPA receives no adverse comments, EPA will take no further 
action on this proposed rule. If EPA receives adverse comments, EPA 
will withdraw the Direct Final Rule and it will not take effect. EPA 
will address all public comments in a subsequent final rule based on 
this proposed rule.
    EPA will not institute a second comment period on this action. Any 
parties interested in commenting must do so at this time. For further 
information, please see the ADDRESSES section of this notice.
    Please note that if EPA receives an adverse comment on a distinct 
provision of this rule and if that provision may be severed from the 
remainder of the rule, EPA may adopt as final those provisions of the 
rule that are not the subject of an adverse comment. See the 
information provided in the Direct Final action of the same title which 
is located in the Rules and Regulations Section of this Federal 
Register.

    Authority:  42 U.S.C. 7401 et seq.

    Dated: July 1, 2015.
