40 CFR Part 52

[VA20-1-5996b; FRL-5179-1]


Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans for 
the Commonwealth of Virginia--Emission Statement Program

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA proposes to approve the State Implementation Plan (SIP) 
revision submitted by the Commonwealth of Virginia for the purpose of 
establishing an emission statement program for stationary sources of 
volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and/or nitrogen oxides (NO<INF>X). In 
the Final Rules section of this Federal Register, EPA is approving the 
State's SIP revision as a direct final rule without prior proposal 
because the Agency views this as a noncontroversial SIP revision 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 proposed rule, no further activity is 
contemplated in relation to this proposed 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comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public 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 June 1, 1995.

ADDRESSES: Written comments on this action should be addressed to 
Thomas J. Maslany, Director, Air, Radiation, and Toxics Division 
(3AT00), 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 
normal business hours at the Air, Radiation, and Toxics Division, U.S.
