Air Plan Approval; TN; Knox County Emissions Statements

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to 
approve changes to the Tennessee state implementation plan (SIP) 
submitted by the State of Tennessee, through the Tennessee Department 
of Environment and Conservation on behalf of the Knox County Department 
of Air Quality Management (County Department), on March 14, 2014, and 
May 14, 2015, that require certain sources in Knox County, Tennessee, 
to report actual emissions of volatile organic compounds and oxides of 
nitrogen to the County Department annually. These changes amend the 
Knox County Air Quality Management Regulations in the Knox County 
portion of the Tennessee SIP to reflect the State of Tennessee's SIP-

proposed action is being taken pursuant to the Clean Air Act and its 
implementing regulations.
