AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

SUMMARY: Pursuant to section 112(l) of the 1990 Clean Air Act, EPA 
granted delegation of specific national emission standards for 
hazardous air pollutants (NESHAP) to the Arizona Department of 
Environmental Quality on March 16, 2007, and to the Nevada Division of 
Environmental Protection on January 12, 2007. EPA is proposing to 
revise the Code of Federal Regulations to reflect the current 
delegation status of NESHAP in Arizona and Nevada.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This document concerns the delegation of 
unchanged NESHAP to the Arizona Department of Environmental Quality and 
the Nevada Division of Environmental Protection. In the Rules and 
Regulations section of this Federal Register, EPA is amending 
regulations to reflect the current delegation status of NESHAP in 
Arizona and Nevada. EPA is taking direct final action without prior 
proposal because the Agency believes these actions 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. Please note that if 
we receive adverse comment on an

[[Page 26070]]

amendment, paragraph, or section of this rule and if that provision may 
be severed from the remainder of the rule, we may adopt as final those 
provisions of the rule that are not the subject of an adverse comment.
    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.

    Authority: This action is issued under the authority of Section 
112 of the Clean Air Act, as amended, 42 U.S.C. 7412.

    Date Signed: April 19, 2007.

Director, Air Division, Region IX.
