Dear Mr. Paylor:

On August 4, 2008, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
received a revision to the Virginia State Implementation Plan (SIP) from
the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality (VADEQ).  This SIP
revision consists of moving Richmond 8-hour Ozone Nonattainment Area
(counties of Charles City, Chesterfield, Hanover, Henrico, and Prince
George; cities of Colonial Heights, Hopewell, Petersburg, and Richmond)
and the Hampton Roads 8-hour Ozone Nonattainment Area (counties of
Gloucester, Isle of Wight, James City and York; cities of Chesapeake,
Hampton, Newport News, Portsmouth, Poquson, Norfolk, Suffolk, Virginia
Beach and Williamsburg) from the list of nonattainment to the list of
maintenance areas.    EPA has determined that the submittals are
administratively and technically complete, and is reviewing them to
prepare a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking.  

If members of your staff have any questions, they may direct them to
Patrick Egan at (215) 814-3167.  She is the principal contact for this
rulemaking.    

	Sincerely, 

	

                                                                        
 /s/

         Judith M. Katz, Director
