SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Throughout this document, ‘‘we,’’ ‘‘us’’ 

and ‘‘our’’ refer to the EPA. In the Rules 

and Regulations section of this Federal 

Register, we are approving the 

EDCAQMD Ozone Emergency Episode 

Plan in a direct final action without 

prior proposal because we believe this 

SIP revision is not controversial. If we 

receive adverse comments, however, we 

will publish a timely withdrawal of the 

direct final rule and address the 

comments in a subsequent action based 

on this proposed rule. 

We do not plan to open a second 

comment period, so anyone interested 

in commenting should do so at this 

time. If we do not receive adverse 

comments, no further activity is 

planned. For further information, please 

see the direct final action.
