Dear Mr. Paylor:

On September 29, 2010, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
received a revision to the Virginia State Implementation Plan (SIP) from
the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality.  This revision
consists of a regulation (9VAC5 Chapter 30) that contains the ambient
air quality standards set out in 40 CFR Part 50.  The submittal added a
lead standard of 1.5 μg/m3 and related reference conditions, as well as
updated the list of appendices to 40 CFR Part 51 for documents
incorporated by reference, 9VAC5-20-21.  EPA has determined that the
submittal is administratively and technically complete, and is reviewing
it to prepare a Direct Final Rulemaking Notice.

If members of your staff have any questions, they may direct them to Ms.
Irene Shandruk, Office of Air Program Planning, at 215- 814-2166.  She
is the principal contact for this rulemaking. 

		Sincerely, 

						/s/

   		Diana Esher, Director
