### Dear Ms.

### Deaville:
L 

### The Louisiana Environmental ActionYs~rk 

## ("LEAK") is a non-profit organizationwhose primary 

### goal is to prorecr public heaIth and 

### the environment. LEAY 

### members live, 

### work, and L 

### recreate throughout

### the stateofLouisiana. We 

### are aware

### that the

### DepartmentofEnvironmental Quality ("DEQ") 

## is intending to amendthe Air 

### Quality Division Regulations 

### ("Regulations"), Log fr-AQl

## 64:and belicve the

## DEQ should not amendthe Regulationsto reduce the availability I 

### of informationto the 

### public. The Clean 

## Air Act ("CAA"), 

### at40 

## C.F.R.$5

### 1.102(d)(2),rzquires the 

### "[a]vailability ofeach I 

### proposed plan or

### revisionfor pubIic inspection in 

### atleast oncIocation

### in each region 

### to which it 

### will 

### appIy, and

### the availability of

# - 166(a)(5),

### any state action 

### on a PSD sourceor modification "shall be 

### subject to the 

### opportunity for public hearing 

### in accordmce with procedures equivalentto 

### those 

### established in 

### $51.102." Because the 

### CAA

### requires copiesofthe proposed plan orrevision, prc-construction or 

# - modificationbe 

### available for inspection

## in afFected 

### region the 

### DEQ cannot Iimit theprcconstruction ormodification information to the headquartersof

### the Department ofEnvironmental
I 

### Quality,

### in Baton Rouge,

### Louisiana. 

## DEQ also at~empts to

### intent 

### specified

### in the
I 

### Notice 

### oTIntent. The 

### Norice indicates "statement that

### copies will be

### the regional departmental offices." IIowever, the

### proposed amendmentsto 

### LAC 33:III.Q.5 

### and LAC 

## 33:III.Q.6 indicate the DEQ 

### will only make available such copiesofthe 

### comments and 

### ofthe I 

### final 

### mle at the 

## DEQ headquarters

# ..

## FAX 

# NO. 504 862 8721

Finally, 

## LEAK suggeststhat limiting theplacement ofthe commentsand 

### ofthe 

## final determination tothe DEQheadquarters

## will severely restrict the goal of

## making the information availableto the 

### public for inspection. It is 

### unreasonable forthe DEQ 

### to force citizensto 

## travel, in 

### some cases, 

### hundreds ofmiles 10

### DEQ

### headquaners simply to 

## find out aboutpublic comments and 

### notification. We 

### donot believe that

## making documents accessible to the 

### public 

## is "rcdundan~."

## Rather, it iscritical to rhe 

### public's right to know and 

### tobe fuIly informed of

## the 

## DEQ 

## and its decision-making process. 

## For the 

## reasons setforth above, 

## LEA?requests that the 

## DEQ not amend the Regulations

## to rcducc thc availability

### ofpublic documentsin the 

### DEQ's regional offices. Please notify me assoon as the

### 2: General. The regulations should not be amended toreduce the availability ofinformationtothe public. Consequently,limitingthe placement of the comments and the final determinationto the headquarters ofthe Department ofEnvironmental Quality (DEQ) restricts the goal of making the information availableto the public. RESPONSE 

### 2: All permit information, past, present and future will continueto be located at both, the main office located in Baton Rouge and the Regional O5ce providing enforcement and inspection for the parish in which the permit or permit modification is being sought. Public participationis not diminished. 40 CFR 51.1 02(dX2) addresses the issue ofpublic hearings for State Implementation Plans (SIPs), not a state's permittingprogram. LAC 33:III.509.Qprovides extensivepublic recourse. 

### FOR 2: No change 

### in the language keeps the ambiguity ofthe currentregulation. AGAINST2: The proposed rule defines that the official records for permits 

### in a specific parish will be housed in the regional office in which enforcement and inspection activities are originated for that parish. Public participation is not diminished. 40 CFR

Under the authority of the Environmental Quality Act, R.S. 30:2001 et seq., and in accordance with the provisions of the Administrative Procedure Act, R.S. 49:950 et seq., the secretary gives notice that rulemaking procedures have been initiated to amend the Air Quality Division Regulations, LAC 33:III.Chapters 5, 15,21,23,25, and 30 (AQ17I0). This proposed rule is identical to a federal regulation found 

### in 40CFR Part 60,July I, 1997,which is applicable in Louisiana. For more information regarding the federal requirement, contact the Investigations and Regulation Development Division at the address or phone number given below. No fiscal or economic impact will result from the proposed rule; therefore, the rule will be promulgated in accordance with R.S. 49:953(F)(3) and (4). Thisproposed rule updates the reference to the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) contained in LAC 33:III.Chapter 30 to those regulations published in 40 CFR part 60 in July 1997. This revision clarifies that all 40 CFR part 60references that appear 

### in LAC 33:III.Chapters 5, 15, 2 1, 23, 25, and 30are as incorporated by reference in LAC 33:III.Chapter 30. Areas of state and federal authority are more clearly defined with this proposed rule. The basis and rationale for this proposed rule are to update the CFR reference and clarify the department's authority related to 40CFR part 60and proper reporting procedures. This proposed rule meets the exceptions listed in R.S. 30:2019(D)(3) and R.S. 49:953(G)(3); therefore, no report regarding environmentaVhealth benefits and sociaVeconomic costs is required.

RULE Department of Environmental Quality Office of Air Quality and Radiation Protection Air Quality Division Emission Reduction Credits Banking (LAC 33:111.603)(AQ176) Under the authority ofthe Environmental Quality Act, R.S. 30:2001 et seq., and in accordance with the provisions ofthe Administrative Procedure Act, R.S. 49:950 et seq., the secretary has amended the Air Quality Division regulations, LAC 33:III.603 (AQ176).

This revision allows emissions banking for all parishes in the state. The change in the Ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) makes predicting which parishes may participate in the previousrule adifficult task. While the requirements are mandatory for ozone nonattainment areas, the revision lifts the restriction so that other parishes may participatein a voluntary manner. The basis and rationale for this mle are to promote emissions banking in all parts of the state.

This mle meets the exceptions listed in R.S. 30:2019(D)(3) and R.S. 49:953(G)(3); therefore, no report regarding environmentalhealth benefits and sociaVeconomiccosts is required. Title 33 ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY

The comment period for these amendments began on August 20, 1998, when the notice of intent was published in the Louisiana Register. The comment period will close at 4:30 p.m., today, September 24, 1998, for the Air ~uality potpourri, PX2.5 Monitor siting Plan; at 4:30 p.m., October 1, 1998, for the

### Ms. Patsy Deaville Investigations and Regulations Development Division Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality Post Office Box 82282 Baton Rouge, Louisiana 70884-2282 Re: Proposed Chapter 6 Emission Banking Regulations Dear Ms. Deaville: 8 

### The Louisiana Mid-Continent Oil and Gas Association appreciates the opportunity to submit comments on the proposed amendments to the Chapter 6 Emission Banking Regulations (Log #AQ-176) cited in the August 20, 1998 Louisiana Register. MidContinent is 

### an industry organization which represents individuals and companies that produce, transport, refine and market approximately 90% of the oil and natural gas in Louisiana. Mid-Continent supports opening the Chapter 6 Emission Banking Regulations to all areas of the state. This 

### is a prudent step in lieu of the new ozone ambient air quality standard. Mid-Continent would like the Department to clarify the following issues that arise in the rule as a result ofthis change. 1) 

### In Subsection 613.D, an application for banking Emission Reduction Credits (ERCs) is due six months after promulgation of the rule. This applied to those sources in the nonattainment areas at that time. Now that the rule is being opened statewide, is there a mandatory timeframe for sources in attainment areas to submit their ERC applications? A similar concern exists with the language in Subsection 615.A. 

### 2) In Subsection 615.C., Mid-Continent recommends that the Department list by name the "nonattainment areas" subject to this subsection. This will help clarify that a facility in a current parish that is in attainment for the existing ozone standard but nonattainment for the new standard, does not automatically lose any credit due to the imposition ofthe new standard.
