# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

                    In the Final Rules section of this                     **Federal Register**                    , the EPA is approving the State's SIP submittal as a direct final rule without prior proposal because the Agency views this as a noncontroversial submittal and anticipates no adverse comments. If no adverse comments are received in response to this action, no further activity is contemplated.                 

If the EPA receives adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be addressed in a subsequent final rule based on this proposed rule. The EPA will not institute a second comment period. Any parties interested in commenting on this action should do so at this time. 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. 

                    For additional information, see the Direct Final rule which is located in the Rules section of this                     **Federal Register**                    .                 

Dated: October 26, 2004. 

Julie M. Hagensen, 

Acting Regional Administrator, Region 10.
