Dear Mr. Conroy:

I’ve enclosed Maine’s recently-adopted Section 110(a)(2)(D)(i) plan
for your approval and inclusion into Maine’s State Implementation
Plan.  The Section 110(a)(2)(D)(i) plan was posted to a 30-day public
comment period with an opportunity to request a public hearing.  Public
notice of the proposal and comment period was published in the Kennebec
Journal on January 4, 2008.  The Department did not receive any comments
or requests for a public hearing on this proposal.  On April 3, 2008,
the Board of Environmental Protection adopted these amendments to the
Maine State Implementation Plan.  The Department is confident that the
enclosed submission will satisfy all EPA requirements.

Attachment

1	Memorandum to the Board of Environmental Protection dated November 14,
2007 requesting a 30-day public comment period and opportunity to
request a public hearing;

	

2	Copy of legal notice for 30-day public comment period and opportunity
to request a public hearing;

3	Section 110(a)(2)(D)(i) plan demonstrating that that emissions from
Maine do not contribute significantly to other state’s nonattainment
or interfere with maintenance of the 8-hour ozone or PM2.5 NAAQS, or
otherwise interfere with visibility protection or other state’s
efforts to prevent significant deterioration of air quality.

4	Memorandum to the Board of Environmental Protection dated March 6,
2008, requesting adoption of the proposed SIP submittals; and 

5	Certification by the Attorney General that the State followed all
relevant 	requirements of the Maine Administrative Procedures Act in
conducting

	the public hearing and completing the submittal process.

If you should have any questions, please contact Jeff Crawford at
207-287-2437.

Sincerely,

James P. Brooks, Director

Bureau of Air Quality
