Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans and Operating 
Permits Program; State of Missouri

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA proposes to approve the State Implementation Plan (SIP) 
and Operating Permits Program to amend the definitions provisions of 
the rules by adding definitions for stage I/II vapor recovery systems 
and outstate area, updating the lists of volatile organic compounds and 
hazardous air pollutants for consistency with the Environmental 
Protection Agency (EPA) lists, removing unnecessary definitions, and 
making typographical corrections and clarifications. This revision will 
ensure consistency between the State and the Federally-approved rules.

DATES: Comments on this proposed action must be received in writing by 
May 14, 2009.

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, identified by Docket ID No. EPA-R07-
OAR-2008-0793, by mail to Amy Bhesania, Environmental Protection 
Agency, Air Planning and Development Branch, 901 North 5th Street,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the final rules section of the Federal 
Register, EPA is approving the State's revision as a direct final rule 
without prior proposal because the Agency views this is 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adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all 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.
