ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 52
[AK-20-1708b; FRL-5975-1]
Approval and Promulgation of State Implementation Plans: Alaska
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 Alaska on October 31, 1997.
This revision consists of amendments to Fuel Requirements for Motor
Vehicles, title 18, chapter 53 of the Alaska Administrative Code (18
AAC 53) regarding the use of oxygenated fuels. 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comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public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
April 10, 1998.
ADDRESSES: Written comments should be addressed to: Montel Livingston,
SIP Manager, Office of Air Quality (OAQ-107), EPA, 1200 Sixth Avenue,
Seattle, Washington 98101. Documents which are incorporated by
reference are available for public inspection at the Air and Radiation
Docket and Information Center, Environmental Protection Agency, 401 M
Street, SW, Washington, DC 20460. Copies of material submitted to EPA
may be examined during normal business hours at the following

(OAQ-107), Seattle, Washington 98101, and the Alaska Department of
