Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans; 
Pennsylvania; Revisions to Requirements for Major Sources Locating in 
or Impacting a Nonattainment Area in Allegheny County

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA is taking direct final action to approve a revision to the 
Pennsylvania State Implementation Plan (SIP) which was submitted on 
November 16, 2006 by the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental 
Protection (PADEP). This change to Allegheny County's Air Pollution 
Control Rules and Regulations amends the existing requirements for 
sources locating in or impacting a nonattainment area in Allegheny 
County by incorporating

Federal modeling requirements. 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 EPA 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 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final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be 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.

DATES: Comments must be received in writing by July 11, 2011.

    Instructions: Direct your comments to Docket ID No. EPA-R03-OAR-

provided, unless the comment includes information claimed to be 
Confidential Business Information (CBI) or other information whose 
disclosure is restricted by statute. Do not submit information that you 
consider to be CBI or otherwise protected through http://www.regulations.gov or e-mail. The http://www.regulations.gov Web site 
is an ``anonymous access'' system, which means EPA will not know your 
identity or contact information unless you provide it in the body of 
your comment. If you send an e-mail comment directly to EPA without

automatically captured and included as part of the comment that is

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 electronic docket are listed in the 
http://www.regulations.gov index. Although listed in the index, some 
information is not publicly available, i.e., CBI or other information 
whose disclosure is restricted by statute. Certain other material, such 
as copyrighted material, is not placed on the Internet and will be 
publicly available only in hard copy form. Publicly available docket
