40 CFR Parts 52 and 60
[EPA-R08-OAR-2005-UT-0007; FRL-8275-3]
Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans;
State of Utah; Administrative Procedures
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve a State Implementation Plan (SIP)
revision submitted by the Governor of Utah on August 15, 2001. This SIP
submittal deletes Utah's rules R307-102-3, ``Administrative Procedures
and Hearings,'' and R307-414-3, ``Request for Review.'' EPA is
proposing to remove Utah's rules R307-102-3 and R307-414-3 from Utah's
federally approved SIP, because these rules are not required to be in
Utah's SIP. This action is being taken under section 110 of the Clean
Air Act.
Furthermore, on August 25, 2006, the Governor of Utah submitted
revisions to the New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) rules in
Utah's Air Conservation Regulations. We are proposing to approve
updates to the NSPS ``Delegation Status of New Source Performance
Standards'' table to indicate the State has been delegated the
authority to implement and enforce NSPS and to add entries for newly
delegated NSPS.
In the ``Rules and Regulations'' section of this 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 SIP revision and anticipates no adverse comments. A
detailed rationale for the approval is set forth in the preamble to the
direct final rule. If EPA receives no adverse comments, EPA will not
take further action on this proposed rule. If EPA receives adverse
comments, EPA will withdraw the direct final rule and it will not take
effect. EPA will address all public comments in a subsequent final rule
based on this proposed rule. EPA will not institute a second comment
period on this action. Any parties interested in commenting must 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.
