40 CFR Part 52

[EPA-R07-OAR-2013-0446; FRL 9900-38-Region 7]


Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans; State of Iowa

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve revisions to the State 
Implementation Plan (SIP) for the state of Iowa. The purpose of these 
revisions is to update the Polk County Board of Health Rules and 
Regulations. These proposed revisions reflect updates to the Iowa 
statewide rules previously approved by EPA and will ensure consistency 
between the applicable local agency rules and Federally-approved rules.

DATES: Comments on this proposed action must be received in writing by 
September 26, 2013.

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, identified by Docket ID No. EPA-R07-
OAR-2013-0446 by mail to: Michael Jay, Environmental Protection Agency, 
Air Planning and Development Branch, 11201 Renner Boulevard, Lenexa, 
Kansas 66219. 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: Michael Jay at (913) 551-7460, or by 
email at jay.michael@epa.gov

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the final rules section of the Federal 
Register, EPA is approving the state's SIP revision as a direct final 
rule without prior proposal because the Agency views this as a 
noncontroversial revision amendment and anticipates no relevant adverse 
comments to this action. 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 in relation to this action. 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adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all 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 action. EPA will not institute a second comment 
period on this action. Any parties interested in commenting on this 
action should do so at this time. Please note that if EPA receives 
adverse comment on part of this rule and if that part can be severed 
from the remainder of the rule, EPA may adopt as final those parts 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: August 1, 2013.

Acting Regional Administrator, Region 7.
