[EPA-R07-OAR-2016-0529; FRL-9953-33-Region 7]

Approval of Missouri's Air Quality Implementation Plans and 
Operating Permits Program; Greenhouse Gas Tailoring Rule and Non-
Substantive Definition and Language Changes

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to approve 
revisions to the Missouri State Implementation Plan (SIP) and the 40 
CFR part 70 operating permits program. EPA is proposing to approve 
revisions to two Missouri rule(s) entitled, ``Construction Permits 
Required,'' and ``Operating Permits.'' This proposed action is 
consistent with the July 12, 2013, U.S. Court of Appeals for the 
District of Columbia and the June 23, 2014, U.S. Supreme Court actions 
regarding Greenhouse Gas Prevention of Significant Deterioration and 
Title V Permitting. This action makes non-substantive changes to 
definitions, and language clarifications.

DATES: Comments must be received by November 2, 2016.

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, identified by Docket ID No. EPA-R07-
OAR-2016-0529, http://www.regulations.gov. Follow the online

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This document proposes to take action to 
approve revisions to the Missouri Title V Operating Permits Program and 
the Missouri SIP. We have published a direct final rule approving the 
State's SIP revision(s) in the ``Rules and Regulations'' section of 
this Federal Register, because we view this as a noncontroversial 
action and anticipate no relevant adverse comment. We have explained 
our reasons for this action in the preamble to the direct final rule. 
If we receive no adverse comment, we will not take further action on 
this proposed rule. If we receive adverse comment, we will withdraw the 
direct final rule and it will not take effect. We would address all 
public comments in any subsequent final rule based on this proposed 
rule. We do not intend to institute a second comment period on this 
action. Any parties interested in commenting must do so at this time. 
For further information, please see the information provided in the 
ADDRESSES section of this document.
