ACTION: Proposed rule.

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing approval of revisions to the Alabama State
Implementation Plan (SIP), submitted by the Alabama Department of
Environmental Management (ADEM) on November 18, 2005. The revisions
include modifications to Alabama's Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs)
rules found at Alabama Administrative Code (AAC) Chapter 335-3-1. ADEM
is taking an action that was similarly approved by EPA on November 29,
2004 (69 FR 69298). The revision adds several compounds to the list of
compounds excluded from the definition of VOC on the basis that they
make a negligible contribution to ozone formation. This proposed action
is being taken pursuant to section 110 of the Clean Air Act (CAA).

2006.
