Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans; State of Iowa
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: EPA proposes to approve the State Implementation Plan (SIP)
revision submitted by the state of Iowa for the purpose of approving
the 2001 and 2004 updates to the Linn County Air Quality Ordinance,
Chapter 10, Air Quality. These revisions will help to ensure
consistency between the applicable local agency rules and Federally-
approved rules, and ensure Federal enforceability of the applicable
parts of the local agency air programs.
DATES: Comments on this proposed action must be received in writing by
September 15, 2005.
ADDRESSES: Comments may be mailed to Heather Hamilton, Environmental
Protection Agency, Air Planning and Development Branch, 901 North 5th
Street, Kansas City, Kansas 66101. Comments may also be submitted
electronically or through hand delivery/courier; please follow the
detailed instructions in the Addresses section of the direct final rule
which is located in the rules section of this Federal Register.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Heather Hamilton at (913) 551-7039, or
by e-mail at [email protected].
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adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all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 3, 2005.
