Dear Mr. Paylor:

On September 29, 2010, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
received a revision to the Virginia State Implementation Plan (SIP) from
the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality pertaining to the
revised definition of “Volatile organic compound” listed in Section
5-10-20 of 9VAC5, Chapter 10.  EPA has determined that the submittal is
administratively and technically complete, and is reviewing it to
prepare a Direct Final Rulemaking Notice action. 

If members of your staff have any questions, they may direct them to Mr.
Harold A. Frankford at (215) 814-2108.  He is the principal contact for
this rulemaking.    

	Sincerely, 

						/s/
