[EPA–R03–OAR–2007–1001; FRL–8709–6] 

Approval and Promulgation of Air 

Quality Implementation Plans; 

Maryland; NOX and SO2 Emissions 

Limitations for Fifteen Coal-Fired 

Electric Generating Units 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Partial withdrawal of proposed 

rule. 

SUMMARY: EPA is withdrawing a portion 

of a proposed rule pertaining to a State 

of Maryland State Implementation Plan 

(SIP) revision that establishes tonnage 

caps for emissions of nitrogen oxides 

(NOX) and sulfur dioxide (SO2) from 15 

coal-fired electric generating units. The 

proposed rule was published on January 

10, 2008 (73 FR 1851). EPA is 

withdrawing a provision of the rule that 

Maryland requested we take no further 

action on. EPA has determined that the 

provision has no impact on the 

remainder of the rule, which is being 

finalized by separate document. This 

SIP action is being taken under the 

Clean Air Act (CAA). 

DATES: The proposed rule for COMAR 

26.11.27.03B(7)(a)(iii) is withdrawn as 

of September 4, 2008.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: See the 

information provided in the proposed 

rule entitled, ‘‘Approval and 

Promulgation of Air Quality 

Implementation Plans; Maryland; NOX

and SO2 Emissions Limitations for 

Fifteen Coal-Fired Electric Generating 

Units,’’ located in the Proposed Rules 

section of the January 10, 2008 Federal 

Register (73 FR 1851). On June 23, 2008, 

the Maryland Department of the 

Environment (MDE) submitted a letter 

withdrawing a portion of their July 12, 

2007 submittal. The withdrawal only 

affects COMAR 26.11.27.03B(7)(a)(iii). 

This provision requires a unit that 

exceeds its ozone season NOX emissions 

limit to surrender ozone season NOX

allowances equivalent to the number of 

tons of NOX emitted in excess of the 

limit. The June 23, 2008 letter requested 

that EPA finalize its rulemaking with 

respect to the rest of the SIP Revision 

that is not withdrawn. EPA determined 

that withdrawal of COMAR 

26.11.27.03B(7)(a)(iii) does not impact 

the other requirements in COMAR 

26.11.27 and is severable. The other 

portions of the January 10, 2008 

proposed rule are not affected, and are 

being finalized in a separate notice.

Approval and Promulgation of 

Implementation Plans; Georgia; 

Prevention of Significant Deterioration 

and Nonattainment New Source 

Review Rules 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Proposed rule. 

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to partially 

approve and disapprove portions of 

revisions to the Georgia State 

Implementation Plan (SIP) submitted by 

the State of Georgia in three submittals 

dated October 31, 2006, March 5, 2007, 

and August 22, 2007. The proposed 

revisions modify Georgia’s Prevention of 

Significant Deterioration (PSD) and 

Nonattainment New Source Review 

(NNSR) permitting rules in the SIP to 

address changes to the federal New 

Source Review (NSR) regulations, which 

were promulgated by EPA on December 

31, 2002, and reconsidered with minor 

changes on November 7, 2003 

(collectively, these two final actions are 

referred to as the ‘‘2002 NSR Reform 

Rules’’). The proposed revisions include 

provisions for baseline emissions 

calculations, an actual-to-projectedactual methodology for calculating 

emissions changes, options for 

plantwide applicability limits, and 

recordkeeping and reporting 

requirements. EPA is proposing to 

approve Georgia’s NSR rule revisions, 

with the exception of one NNSR 

provision. EPA is proposing to 

disapprove the State’s incorporation of 

‘‘baseline emissions calculations’’ into 

the Georgia NNSR provisions for the 

generation of Emissions Reductions’

Credits to be used as offsets.
