ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Part 52

[EPA-R07-OAR-2007-0095; FRL-8309-4]


Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans; State of 
Missouri

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA proposes to approve an amendment to the Missouri State 
Implementation Plan (SIP). This action approves an amendment to the 
SIP-approved Doe Run Herculaneum Consent Judgment to remove language 
specifying the exact bag technology to be used in the baghouses. 
Related performance standard requirements will remain unchanged. This 
action is independent and does not affect the revision to the Missouri 
SIP due in April 2007, in response to the SIP Call issued April 14, 
2006, to bring the area of Herculaneum into compliance with the lead 
National Ambient Air Quality Standard.

DATES: Comments on this proposed action must be received in writing by 
June 4, 2007.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 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. The revisions will not increase emissions and 
do not affect the stringency of the control requirement. Additionally, 
the revisions have gone through the Missouri approval process, 
including a public hearing and opportunity for public comment. EPA was 
the only party to provide comments during Missouri's comment period. 
Therefore, we do not anticipate any adverse comments. 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withdrawn and all public comments received will be addressed in a 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. 
Please note that if EPA receives adverse comment on part of this rule 
and if that part can be severed from the remainder of the rule, EPA may 
adopt as final those parts 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.

    Dated: April 26, 2007.
John B. Askew,
Regional Administrator, Region 7.
