know your identity or contact information unless you provide it in the 
body of your comment. If you send e-mail directly to EPA, your e-mail

public comment. If EPA cannot read your comment due to technical 
difficulties and cannot contact you for clarification, EPA may not be

or viruses.

documents in the docket are listed in the index, some information may 
be publicly available only at the hard copy location (e.g., copyrighted 
material), and some may not be publicly available in either location 
(e.g., CBI). To inspect the hard copy materials, please schedule an 
appointment during normal business hours with the contact listed in the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This proposal updates the delegation tables 
in 40 CFR parts 60 and 61, to allow easier access by the public to the 
status of local jurisdictions. In the Rules and Regulations section of 
this Federal Register, we are updating these delegation tables in a 
direct final action without prior proposal because we believe these 
delegations are not controversial. If we receive adverse comments, 
however, we will publish a timely withdrawal of the direct final rule 
and address the comments in subsequent action based on this proposed 
rule.
    We do not plan to open a second comment period, so anyone 
interested in commenting should do so at this time. If we do not 
receive adverse comments, no further activity is planned. For further 
information, please see the direct final action.

    Dated: April 17, 2009.
Allyn Stern,
Acting Director, Air Division, Region IX.
