Finishing Inc. and a Revision to Regulation No. 7 for Lexmark 
International Inc.

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing approval of the revisions to the Colorado 
State Implementation Plan (SIP) to Regulation No. 3, ``Air Contaminant 
Emissions Notices,'' and Regulation No. 7, ``Regulation To Control 
Emissions of Volatile Organic Compounds.'' The revisions to Regulations 
Nos. 3 and 7 for Pioneer Metal Finishing Inc. (PMF) consist of a source 
specific SIP revision to allow PMF to purchase banked Volatile Organic 
Compound (VOC) emission reduction credits (ERC) from Coors Brewing 
Company (Coors), to enable PMF to come into compliance with the VOC 
Reasonable Available Control Technology (RACT) requirements of 
Regulation No. 7 (Reg. 7). The revision to Reg. 7 for Lexmark 
International Inc. (Lexmark) consists of a source-specific SIP revision 
to allow Lexmark to utilize the provisions of Reg.

7 to perform crossline averaging for the purposes of meeting the VOC 
RACT requirements of Reg. 7. In the Final Rules Section of this Federal 
Register, EPA is approving the State's State Implementation Plan (SIP) 
revision as a direct final rule without prior proposal because the 
Agency views this as a noncontroversial revision amendment and 
anticipates no adverse comments. A detailed rationale for the approval 
is set forth in the direct final rule. If no adverse comments are 
received in response to this proposed rule, no further activity is 
contemplated in relation to this rule. 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comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public 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 on 
this action. Any parties interested in commenting on this action should 
do so at this time.

DATES: Comments on this proposed rule must be received in writing by 
March 3, 1997.
