ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Part 52

[PA 091-4050b ; FRL-5918-3]


Air Quality Implementation Plans; Approval and Promulgation: 
Pennsylvania

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: This action proposes to correct an interim final rule, which 
was published on January 28, 1997, regarding EPA conditional approval 
of Pennsylvania's enhanced inspection and maintenance (I/M) program. 
This action pertains to the consequences in the event that the 
Pennsylvania enhanced I/M program failed to commence per the deadlines 
set forth in EPA's interim final rule. EPA is taking this action for 
the purposes of consistency with rulemaking actions EPA has since taken 
on other states' inspection and maintenance programs. In the Final 
Rules section of this Federal Register, EPA is making this correction 
to the Commonwealth's January 28, 1996 conditional SIP approval by 
issuing a direct final rule without prior proposal because the Agency 
views this correction as a noncontroversial SIP revision. Thus, EPA 
anticipates no adverse comments. A detailed explanation of this 
correction 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adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all 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 must be received in writing by December 8, 1997.

ADDRESSES: Written comments on this action should be addressed to David 
L. Arnold, Chief, Ozone/CO and Mobile Sources Section (Mailcode 3AT21), 
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region III, 841 Chestnut 
Building, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19107. Copies of the documents 
relevant to this action are available for public inspection during
