Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans; New Mexico;
Albuquerque/Bernalillo County
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve a revision to the New Mexico
Albuquerque/Bernalillo County State Implementation Plan (SIP). This
revision replaces Regulation 8, Airborne Particulate Matter, with NMAC
20.11.20, Fugitive Dust Control. This rulemaking action is being taken
under section 110 of the Clean Air Act (CAA).
DATES: Written comments must be received on or before May 1, 2009.
ADDRESSES: Comments may be mailed to Mr. Guy Donaldson, Chief, Air
Planning Section (6PD-L), 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.

700, Dallas, Texas 75202-2733, telephone (214) 665-7186; fax number
214-665-7263; e-mail address [email protected].
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 adverse comments are received in response to this action
rule, no further activity is contemplated. If EPA receives 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comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public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.
Dated: March 16, 2009.
Lawrence E. Starfield,
Acting Regional Administrator, Region 6.
