Approval and Promulgation of

Implementation Plans; State of

Missouri

AGENCY: Environmental Protection

Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

SUMMARY: EPA proposes to approve the

Eagle-Picher Technologies’ LLC Consent

Agreement as a revision to the Missouri

State Implementation Plan (SIP). This

Consent Agreement ensures that the

operation of the newly installed

emissions controls at the Chemicals

Divisions in Joplin, Missouri, are

permanent, enforceable, and

measurable.

In the final rules section of the

Federal Register, EPA is approving the

state’s SIP revision as a direct final rule

without prior proposal because the

Agency views this as a noncontroversial

revision amendment and anticipates no

relevant adverse comments to this

action. A detailed rationale for the

approval is set forth in the direct final

rule. If no relevant adverse comments

are received in response to this action,

no further activity is contemplated in

relation to this action. If EPA receives

relevant 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final rule will be withdrawn and all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 action. EPA will

not institute a second comment period

on this action. Any parties interested in

commenting on this action should do so

at this time.

DATES: Comments must be received on

or before May 24, 2000.

ADDRESSES: Written comments should

be mailed to Kim Johnson, Air Planning

and Development Branch, 901 North 5th

Street, Kansas City, Kansas 66101.

Copies of the state submittal(s) are

available at the following address for
