ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 52
[EPA-R05-OAR-2010-0450; FRL-9182-3]
Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans;
Minnesota
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve Minnesota's request to amend its
State Implementation Plan (SIP) for sulfur dioxide (SO2).
The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency submitted the SIP revision
request to EPA on May 7, 2010. The proposed approval revises the
Minnesota SIP by updating information regarding the heat and steam
distributor facility located in Fridley, Minnesota. The source,
formerly operated as United Defense, LP, Inc. was sold and is now
operating as ELT Minneapolis, LLC. The revision replaces the joint
Title I/Title V document currently approved in the SIP for the facility
to reflect the change in ownership. These revisions do not change any
of the SO2 control requirements and will not result in an
increase in SO2 emissions at the facility because no
emission limits were increased.
DATES: Comments must be received on or before September 2, 2010.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the Rules section of this Federal
Register, EPA is approving the State's SIP submittal as a direct final
rule without prior proposal because EPA 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 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direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments received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: July 19, 2010.

Regional Administrator, Region 5.
