The Honorable Randy C. Huffman					

Secretary, West Virginia Department of Environmental Protection

Division of Air Quality

Charleston, WV 25304-2943

Dear Secretary Huffman:

On March 13, 2012, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
received a revision to the West Virginia State Implementation Plan (SIP)
from the Department of Environmental Protection.  This revision requests
redesignation of the West Virginia portion of the Wheeling, WV-OH 1997
PM2.5 nonattainment area to attainment and approval of the Area’s
maintenance plan.  EPA has determined that the submittal is
administratively and technically complete, and is reviewing it to
prepare a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPR).  

If members of your staff have any questions, they may direct them to
Rose Quinto, Air Quality Planning Branch, at (215) 814-2182.  She is the
principal contact for this rulemaking.    

	     Sincerely, 

 

        /s/

Diana Esher, Director

                          			            Air Protection Division
