Federal Register / Vol. 60, No. 56 / Thursday, March 23, 1995 / Proposed Rules 15271

SUMMARY: The USEPA proposes to

approve the State Implementation Plan

(SIP) revision request submitted by the

State of Ohio for the purpose of

satisfying Clean Air Act requirements.

In the final rules section of this Federal

Register, the USEPA is approving the

State’s SIP revision request as a direct

final rule without prior proposal,

detailed rationale for the action is set

forth in the direct final rule. If no

adverse comments are received in

response to that direct final rule, no

further activity is contemplated in

relation to this proposed rule. If the

USEPA 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direct final rule will be withdrawn, and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

USEPA will not institute a second

comment period on this notice. Any

parties interested in commenting on this

notice should do so at this time.

St. Louis (Metro-East) ozone

nonattainment area which includes

Madison, Monroe, and St. Clair

Approval and Promulgation of

Implementation Plans; California State

Implementation Plan Revision; South

Coast Air Quality Management District

AGENCY: Environmental Protection

Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking

(NPRM).

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing a limited

approval and limited disapproval of

revisions to the California State

Implementation Plan (SIP) for ozone.

These revisions concern the control of

oxides of nitrogen (NOX) from stationary

gas turbines. The intended effect of

proposing limited approval and limited

disapproval of this rule is to regulate

emissions of NOX in accordance with

the requirements of the Clean Air Act,

as amended in 1990 (CAA or the Act).

EPA’s final action on this notice of

proposed rulemaking will incorporate

this rule into the Federally approved

SIP. EPA has evaluated this rule and is

proposing a simultaneous limited

approval and limited disapproval under

provisions of the CAA regarding EPA

actions on SIP submittals and general

rulemaking authority because these

revisions, while strengthening the SIP,

also do not fully meet the CAA

provisions regarding plan submissions

and requirements for nonattainment

areas.

DATES: Comments on this proposed

action must be received in writing on or

before April 24, 1995.

ADDRESSES: Comments may be mailed

to: Daniel A. Meer, Rulemaking Section

(A–5–3), Air and Toxics Division, U.S.

Environmental Protection Agency,

Region IX, 75 Hawthorne Street, San

Francisco, CA 94105.

Copies of the rule and EPA’s

evaluation report of the rule are

available for public inspection at EPA’s

Region IX office during normal business

hours. Copies of the submitted rule are

also available for inspection at the

following locations:
