SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On April

30, 1996, the State of Tennessee

submitted formal revisions to the

Tennessee SIP. EPA found the submittal

to be complete on July 8, 1996. These

revisions to the SIP consisted of the

entire Chapter 1200–3–19 ‘‘Emission

Standards and Monitoring Requirements

for Additional Control Areas.’’ This

chapter establishes specific emission

standards for existing air contaminant

sources located in nonattainment areas

within the State. EPA is approving the

revised Chapter 19 as described in the

paragraphs below.

1. The phrase ‘‘a nonattainment area’’

has been changed to ‘‘an additional

control area’’ throughout this chapter.

The State has changed this description

so that it now refers to areas which are

in nonattainment and areas which were

formerly nonattainment but have been

redesignated to attainment. These

redesignated areas are under additional

controls as required by their

maintenance plans, as well as any

contingency measures that they may be

implementing.

2. Chapter 1200–3–19.05(4) Operating

Permits and Emissions Limiting

Conditions—This subparagraph has

been revised to require that a source,

which is subject to enforceable limits on

a RACT permit, must also apply for a

construction permit. Once the source

has received a construction permit, the

RACT permit will be deleted from the

SIP.

3. The phrase ‘‘asphalt concrete

plant’’ has been changed to ‘‘hot mix

asphalt plant’’ throughout this chapter.

The requirements for these plants have

not been revised.

Final Action

The EPA is approving the

aforementioned revisions contained in

the State’s April 30, 1996, submittal.

The EPA is publishing this action

without prior proposal because the

Agency views this as a noncontroversial

amendment and anticipates no adverse

comments. However, in a separate

document in this Federal Register

publication, the EPA is proposing to

approve the SIP revision should adverse

or critical comments be filed. This

action will be effective September 29,

1997 unless, by August 29, 1997,

adverse or critical comments are

received.

If the EPA receives such comments,

this action will be withdrawn before the

effective date by publishing a

subsequent document that will

withdraw the final action. All public

comments received will be addressed in

a subsequent final rule based on this

action serving as a proposed rule. The

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. If no

such comments are received, the public

is advised that this action will be

effective September 29, 1997.

Nothing in this action should be

construed as permitting or allowing or

establishing a precedent for any future

request for revision to any state

implementation plan. Each request for

revision to the state implementation

plan shall be considered separately in

light of specific technical, economic,

and environmental factors and in

relation to relevant statutory and

regulatory requirements.

(OMB) has exempted this regulatory
