Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans;
Pennsylvania; 

Carbon Monoxide Maintenance Plan Update; Limited Maintenance Plan 

in Philadelphia County 

AGENCY:  Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION:  Proposed rule.

SUMMARY:  EPA proposes to approve the State Implementation Plan (SIP)
revision submitted by the State of Pennsylvania for the purpose of
establishing a limited maintenance plan for carbon monoxide in
Philadelphia County for the maintenance period of 2007-2017.  In the
Final Rules section of this Federal Register, EPA is approving the
State's SIP submittal as a direct final rule without prior proposal
because the Agency views this as a noncontroversial submittal and
anticipates no adverse comments.  A detailed rationale for the approval
is set forth in the direct final rule.  If no adverse comments are
received in response to this action, no further activity is
contemplated.  If EPA receives adverse comments, the direct final rule
will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be addressed in
a subsequent final rule based on this proposed rule.  EPA will not
institute a second comment period.  Any parties interested in commenting
on this action should do so at this time. 

DATES:  Comments must be received in writing by [insert date 30 days
from date of publication].
