ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION 

AGENCY 

40 CFR Part 52 

[EPA–R07–OAR–2017–0268; FRL 9969–09– 

Region 7] 

Approval of Missouri Air Quality 

Implementation Plans; Infrastructure 

SIP Requirements for the 2010 

Nitrogen Oxide National Ambient Air 

Quality Standard 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Proposed rule. 

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA) is proposing to approve 

elements of a State Implementation Plan 

(SIP) revision from the State of Missouri 

for the 2010 Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2) 

National Ambient Air Quality Standard 

(NAAQS). Section 110 of the CAA 

requires that each state adopt and 

submit a SIP for the implementation, 

maintenance, and enforcement of each 

new or revised NAAQS promulgated by 

EPA. These SIPs are commonly referred 

to as ‘‘infrastructure’’ SIPs. The 

infrastructure requirements are designed 

to ensure that the structural components 

of each state’s air quality management 

program are adequate to meet the state’s 

responsibilities under the CAA. In the 

‘‘Rules and Regulations’’ section of this 

issue of the Federal Register, we are 

approving the state’s SIP revisions as a 

direct final rule without a prior 

proposed rule. If we receive no adverse 

comment, we will not take further 

action on this proposed rule. 

DATES: Comments must be received by 

November 13, 2017. 

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, 

identified by Docket ID No. EPA–R07– 

OAR–2017–0268, to https://

www.regulations.gov. Follow the online 

instructions for submitting comments. 

Once submitted, comments cannot be 

edited or removed from Regulations.gov. 

The EPA may publish any comment 

received to its public docket. Do not 

submit electronically any information 

you consider to be Confidential 

Business Information (CBI) or other 

information whose disclosure is 

restricted by statute. Multimedia 

submissions (audio, video, etc.) must be 

accompanied by a written comment. 

The written comment is considered the 

official comment and should include 

discussion of all points you wish to 

make. The EPA will generally not 

consider comments or comment 

contents located outside of the primary 

submission (i.e. on the web, cloud, or 

other file sharing system). For 

additional submission methods, the full 

EPA public comment policy,

submissions, and general guidance on

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This 

document proposes to take action on the 

State of Missouri Infrastructure SIP 

revision for the 2010 NO2 NAAQS. We 

have published a direct final rule 

approving the State’s SIP revision(s) in 

the ‘‘Rules and Regulations’’ section of 

this issue of the Federal Register,

noncontroversial action and anticipate 

no relevant adverse comment. We have 

explained our reasons for this action in 

the preamble to the direct final rule. If 

we receive no adverse comment, we will 

not take further action on this proposed 

rule. If we receive adverse comment, we 

will withdraw the direct final rule and 

it will not take effect. We would address 

all public comments in any subsequent 

final rule based on this proposed rule. 

We do not intend to institute a second 

comment period on this action. Any 

parties interested in commenting must 

do so at this time. For further
