ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Part 52

[R04-OAR-2005-TN-0004-200526(b); FRL-8014-5]

 
Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans; Tennessee and 
Nashville-Davidson County; Approval of Revisions to the State 
Implementation Plan

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The EPA is proposing to approve non-regulatory revisions to 
the Tennessee State Implementation Plan (SIP) and regulatory revisions 
to the Nashville-Davidson portion of the Tennessee SIP, submitted by 
the State of Tennessee through the Tennessee Department of Environment 
and Conservation (TDEC) on January 26, 1999, October 11, 2001, and 
April 15, 2005. The revisions amend the Vehicle Inspection and 
Maintenance program in Nashville-Davidson County and the Nashville 
(Middle Tennessee) Ozone Maintenance Area Plan. In the Rules Section of 
this Federal Register, the EPA is approving the SIP revisions 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 significant, material, and adverse comments are received in 
response to this rule, 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receives adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and 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. The EPA will not institute a second 
comment period on this document. Any parties interested in commenting 
on this document should do so at this time.

DATES: Written comments must be received on or before February 2, 2006.

ADDRESSES: Comments may be submitted by mail to: Anne Marie Hoffman, 
Regulatory Development Section, Air Planning Branch, Air, Pesticides 
and Toxics Management Division, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, 
Region 4, 61 Forsyth Street, SW., Atlanta, Georgia 30303-8960. Comments 
may also be submitted electronically, or through hand delivery/courier. 
Please follow the detailed instructions described in the direct final 
rule, ADDRESSES section which is published in the Rules Section of this 
Federal Register.
