concerning transportation conformity rules for Bernalillo County, New
Mexico. The plan revision is intended to ensure consistency with
amendments to the federal Transportation Conformity Rule. These plan
revisions meet statutory and regulatory requirements, and are
consistent with EPA's guidance.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This document proposes to take action on SIP
revisions submitted by the Governor of New Mexico on behalf of the
Albuquerque Environmental Health Department. We have published a direct
final rule approving the State's SIP revisions in the ``Rules and
Regulations'' section of this Federal Register because we view this as
a noncontroversial action and anticipate no adverse comment. We have
explained our reasons for this action in the preamble to the direct
final rule.
If we receive no adverse comment, we will not take further action
on this proposed rule. If we receive adverse comment, we will withdraw
the direct final rule and it will not take effect. We would address all
public comments in any subsequent final rule based upon this proposed
rule.
We do not intend to institute a second comment period on this
action. Any parties interested in commenting must do so at this time.
For further information, please see the information provided in the
ADDRESSES section of this document.
Dated: April 9, 2010.
