Approval and Promulgation of Air 

Quality Implementation Plans; Illinois; 

Royal Fiberglass Pools, Inc. Adjusted 

Standard 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Proposed rule. 

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve 

into the Illinois State Implementation 

Plan (SIP) an adjusted standard for 

Royal Fiberglass Pools (‘‘Royal’’) at its 

Dix, Illinois facility. On November 8, 

2010, the Illinois Environmental 

Protection Agency (IEPA) submitted to 

EPA for approval an adjustment to the 

general rule, Use of Organic Material 

Rule, commonly known as the eight 

pound per hour (8 lb/hr) rule, as it 

applies to emissions of volatile organic 

matter (VOM) from Royal’s pool 

manufacturing facility. The adjusted 

standard relieves Royal from being 

subject to the general rule for VOM 

emissions from its Dix facility. EPA is 

approving this SIP revision because it 

will not interfere with attainment or 

maintenance of the ozone National 

Ambient Air Quality Standard 

(NAAQS).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the 

Final Rules section of this Federal 

Register, 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. A detailed rationale for the 

approval is set forth in the direct final 

rule. If no adverse comments are 

received in response to this rule, no 

further activity is contemplated. If 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final rule will be withdrawn and all 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. 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 EPA receives adverse 

comment on an amendment, paragraph, 

or section 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. For additional information, 

see the direct final rule which is located 

in the Rules section of this Federal 

Register.

Mandatory Reporting of Greenhouse

Systems: Revisions to Best Available 

Monitoring Method Provisions 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Proposed rule. 

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to amend 

certain provisions related to best 

available monitoring methods in 

regulations for Petroleum and Natural 

Gas Systems of the Greenhouse Gas 

Reporting Rule. Specifically, EPA is 

proposing to extend the time period 

during which owners and operators of 

covered facilities would be permitted to 

use best available monitoring methods 

during 2011 without submitting a 

request to the Administrator for 

approval. In addition, EPA is proposing 

to expand the list of types of emissions 

sources for which owners and operators 

would not be required to submit a 

request to the Administrator to use best 

available monitoring methods for 2011 

and extend the deadline by which 

owners and operators of covered 

facilities would request use of best
