Revisions to the Arizona State 

Implementation Plan 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Proposed rule. 

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA) is proposing under the 

Clean Air Act to approve a revision to 

the Arizona Statutes portion of the 

Arizona State Implementation Plan 

(SIP). This revision concerns particulate 

matter (PM) emissions from dust 

generating operations that do not 

already have a permit within the 

Phoenix Planning area. We are 

proposing to approve a state statute that 

requires the Arizona Department of 

Environmental Quality to develop and 

adopt a general permit that specifies 

episodic best management practices that 

are to be implemented by certain dustgenerating activities. 

DATES: Any comments on this proposal 

must arrive by April 30, 2014.

proposal addresses the following state 

statute: A.R.S. section 49–457.05 (only

applicability; definitions’’). In the Rules 

and Regulations section of this Federal 

Register, we are approving this state

Quality Implementation Plans; 

Pennsylvania; Update of the Motor 

Vehicle Emissions Budgets for the 

Reading 1997 Eight-Hour Ozone 

National Ambient Air Quality Standard 

Maintenance Area 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Proposed rule. 

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA) is proposing to approve 

revisions to the Commonwealth of 

Pennsylvania’s (Pennsylvania) State 

Implementation Plan (SIP). The 

revisions consist of an update to the SIP 

approved Motor Vehicle Emissions 

Budgets (MVEBs) for nitrogen oxides 

(NOX) for the 1997 Eight-Hour Ozone 

National Ambient Air Quality Standard 

(NAAQS) SIP for Berks County (also 

referred to as the ‘‘Reading Maintenance 

Area’’). Also as a part of this SIP 

revision is an update to the area and 

point source inventories for NOX. In the 

Final Rules section of this Federal 

Register, EPA is approving the State’s 

SIP submittal as a direct final rule 

without prior proposal because the 

Agency 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 action, no
