ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY 40 CFR Part 52 [OR47-11-7052b; FRL-5504-9] Approval and Promulgation of State Implementation Plans: Oregon AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). ACTION: Proposed rule.
SUMMARY: The EPA proposes to approve the State Implementation Plan (SIP) revision submitted by the State of Oregon for the establishment of transportation conformity rules to ensure that Federal actions conform to the appropriate SIP. The SIP revision was submitted by the State to satisfy certain Federal Clean Air Act requirements. In the Final Rules Section of this Federal Register, the EPA is approving the State's SIP revision as a direct final rule without prior proposal because the Agency views this as a noncontroversial revision amendment 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 proposed rule, no further activity is contemplated in relation to this rule. If the EPA receives adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be addressed in a subsequent final rule based on this proposed rule. The EPA will not institute a second comment period on this action. DATES: Comments on this proposed rule must be received in writing by June 17, 1996. ADDRESSES: Written comments should be addressed to Montel Livingston, Environmental Protection Specialist (OAQ-107), Office of Air Quality, at the EPA Regional Office listed below. Copies of the documents relevant to this proposed rule are available for public inspection during normal business hours at the following locations. The interested persons wanting to examine these documents should make an appointment with the appropriate office at least 24 hours before the visiting day. The addresses are: EPA, Region 10, Office of Air Quality (OAQ-107), 1200 Sixth Avenue, Seattle, WA 98101; State of Oregon, Department of Environmental Quality, 811 S.W. 6th Avenue, Portland, OR 97204. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Wayne Elson, EPA, Region 10, Office of Air Quality (OAQ-107), 1200 Sixth Avenue, Seattle, WA 98101, (206) 553- 1463.
