40 CFR Part 52

[EPA-R05-OAR-2009-0369; FRL-9125-4]

 
Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans; 
Minnesota

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve a site-specific revision to the 
Minnesota State Implementation Plan (SIP) for particulate matter less 
than 10 microns (PM10) for Aggregate Industries Yard A 
Facility in Saint Paul, Ramsey County, Minnesota. On May 19, 2009, the 
Minnesota Pollution Control Agency requested that EPA approve certain 
portions of a joint Title I/Title V document into the Minnesota 
PM10 SIP for this facility. The State is also requesting in 
this submittal that EPA rescind the Administrative Order issued to J.L. 
Shiely Company which is currently included in Minnesota's SIP for 
PM10. The emissions units previously owned by J.L. Shiely 
Company are now owned by Aggregate Industries. Because the 
PM10 emission limits are being reduced, the air quality of 
Ramsey County will be protected.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the Rules section of this Federal 
Register, EPA is approving the State's SIP submittal as a direct final 
rule without prior proposal because EPA views this as a 
noncontroversial submittal 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 rule, no 
further activity is contemplated. 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direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments received 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. Any parties 
interested in commenting on this action should do so at this time. 
Please note that if EPA receives adverse comment on an amendment, 
paragraph, or section of this rule and if that provision may be severed 
from the remainder of the rule, EPA may adopt as final those provisions 
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: February 25, 2010.
