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

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve a request submitted by the Ohio 
Environmental Protection Agency (Ohio EPA) on March 17, 2009, to revise 
the Ohio State Implementation Plan (SIP) under the Clean Air Act (CAA). 
The State has submitted revisions to rules for approval under Chapter 
3745-15, ``General Provisions,'' of the Ohio Administrative Code (OAC). 
The State's revisions to OAC 3745-15-01 include adoption of the Federal 
definition and citation of the CAA, and the revisions to OAC 3745-15-05 
include clarifications for exemptions and new requirements for sources 
regulated under Title V.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the Rules section of this Federal 
Register, EPA is approving the State's SIP submittal as a direct final 
rule without prior proposal because EPA 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 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direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments received 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. EPA will not institute a second comment period; therefore, any 
parties interested in commenting on this action should do so at this 
time. Please note that if EPA receives adverse comment on an amendment, 
paragraph, or section of this rule and if that provision may be severed 
from the remainder of the rule, EPA may adopt as final those provisions 
of the rule that are not the subject of an adverse comment. For 
additional information, see the direct final rule which is located in 
the Rules section of this Federal Register.

    Dated: April 19, 2010.

Acting Regional Administrator, Region 5.
