ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Part 52

[EPA-R06-OAR-2010-0620; FRL-9199-7]

 
Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans; 
Texas; Revisions to the New Source Review (NSR) State Implementation 
Plan (SIP); Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD)

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve revisions to the Texas PSD State 
Implementation Plan (SIP). EPA proposes to approve a SIP revision 
submitted February 1, 2006, as amended by a SIP revision submitted July 
16, 2010. This action makes no significant changes to the Texas PSD 
SIP; it merely approves reorganization and renumbering of the Texas PSD 
SIP rules. Further, the July 16, 2010 submission corrects certain 
deficiencies identified in EPA's September 23, 2009 proposed 
disapproval. The EPA proposes to approve these revisions pursuant to 
section 110 and part C of the Federal Clean Air Act (Act or CAA).

DATES: Written comments must be received on or before October 15, 2010.

ADDRESSES: Comments may be mailed to Mr. Stanley M. Spruiell, Air 
Permits Section (6PD-R), Environmental Protection Agency, 1445 Ross 
Avenue, Suite 1200, Dallas, Texas 75202-2733. Comments may also be 
submitted electronically or through hand delivery/courier by following 
the detailed instructions in the Addresses section of the direct final 
rule located in the rules section of this Federal Register.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Stanley M. Spruiell, Air Permits 
Section (6PD-R), Environmental Protection Agency, Region 6, 1445 Ross 
Avenue, Suite 700, Dallas, Texas 75202-2733, telephone (214) 665-7212; 
fax number 214-665-7263; e-mail address Spruiell.stanley@epa.gov.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the final rules section of this Federal 
Register, EPA is approving the State's SIP submittal 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 relevant adverse comments are received in response to this 
action, no further activity is contemplated. If EPA receives relevant 
adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all 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. 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.
