Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 92 / Thursday, May 13, 2010 / Proposed Rules 26891 

Section 106, describes the authority of 

the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII, 

Aviation Programs, describes in more 

detail the scope of the Agency’s 

authority. 

We are issuing this rulemaking under 

the authority described in Subtitle VII, 

Part A, Subpart III, Section 44701, 

‘‘General requirements.’’ Under that 

section, Congress charges the FAA with 

promoting safe flight of civil aircraft in 

air commerce by prescribing regulations 

for practices, methods, and procedures 

the Administrator finds necessary for 

safety in air commerce. This regulation 

is within the scope of that authority 

because it addresses an unsafe condition 

that is likely to exist or develop on 

products identified in this rulemaking 

action.

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION 

AGENCY 

40 CFR Part 52 

[EPA–R06–OAR–2006–0132; FRL–9151–2] 

Approval and Promulgation of 

Implementation Plans; Texas; Excess 

Emissions During Startup, Shutdown, 

Maintenance, and Malfunction 

Activities 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Proposed rule. 

SUMMARY: The EPA is proposing to 

partially approve and partially 

disapprove a revision to the Texas State 

Implementation Plan (SIP) submitted by 

the Texas Commission on 

Environmental Quality (TCEQ) in a 

letter dated January 23, 2006 (the 

January 23, 2006 SIP submittal). This 

SIP submittal concerns revisions to 30 

Texas Administrative Code (TAC) 

Chapter 101, General Air Quality Rules, 

Subchapter A General Rules; and 

Subchapter F Emissions Events and 

Scheduled Maintenance, Startup, and 

Shutdown Activities. This action 

proposes approval of those portions of 

the rule that are consistent with the 

Clean Air Act (the Act), and disapproval 

of those portions of the rule that are 

inconsistent with the Act. We are 

proposing disapproval of provisions that 

provide for an affirmative defense 

against civil penalties for excess 

emissions during planned maintenance, 

startup, or shutdown activities. A 

disapproval of these provisions means 

that an affirmative defense is not 

available in the federally approved SIP 

for violations due to excess emissions 

during planned maintenance, startup, or 

shutdown activities. This action is in 

accordance with section 110 of the Act. 

DATES: Comments must be received on 

or before June 14, 2010.

statute. Do not submit information 

through www.regulations.gov or e-mail 

that you consider to be CBI or otherwise

to EPA without going through 

www.regulations.gov, your e-mail 

address will be automatically captured

submit an electronic comment, EPA 

recommends that you include your 

name and other contact information in 

the body of your comment and with any 

disk or CD–ROM you submit. If EPA 

cannot read your comment due to 

technical difficulties and cannot contact 

you for clarification, EPA may not be 

able to consider your comment. 

Electronic files should avoid the use of 

special characters, any form of 

encryption, and be free of any defects or 

viruses. 

Docket: All documents in the docket 

are listed in the www.regulations.gov 

index. Although listed in the index, 

some information is not publicly 

available, e.g., CBI or other information 

whose disclosure is restricted by statute. 

Certain other material, such as 

copyrighted material, will be publicly 

available only in hard copy. Publicly 

available docket materials are available
