40 CFR Part 52

[LA-10-1-5937b; FRL-5172-3]


Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plan: Louisiana 1990 
Base Year Ozone Emissions Inventories

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: The EPA is proposing to approve the 1990 base year ozone 
emission inventories submitted by Louisiana for the purpose of bringing 
about the attainment of the national ambient air quality standard 
(NAAQS) for ozone. The inventories were submitted by the State to 
satisfy certain Federal requirements for an approvable nonattainment 
area (NAA) ozone State Implementation Plan (SIP) for the Baton Rouge 
and Calcasieu Parish areas of Louisiana.
    In the final rules section of this Federal Register, the EPA is 
approving the State's SIP revision as a direct final rule without prior 
proposal because the Agency views this as a noncontroversial amendment 
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 rule. If the 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comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn, and all public 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. The 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 on this proposed rule must be received in writing by 
April 14, 1995.

ADDRESSES: Written comments on this action should be addressed to Mr. 
Guy Donaldson, Acting Chief, Planning Section, at the EPA Regional 
Office listed below. Copies of the documents relevant to this action 
are available for public inspection during normal business hours at the 
following locations. The interested persons wanting to examine these 
documents should make an appointment with the appropriate office at
