[MO 114-1114; FRL-6885-7]


Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans; State of
Missouri; Designation of Areas for Air Quality Planning Purposes; Dent
Township

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA proposes to approve a State Implementation Plan (SIP)
revision submitted by the state of Missouri and Missouri's request to
redesignate the lead nonattainment area in western Iron County,
Missouri, to attainment of the National Ambient Air Quality Standards
(NAAQS). EPA proposes to approve the maintenance plan for this area
including a consent order which was submitted with the redesignation
request, and also proposes to approve the revision to Missouri's
Restriction of Emissions of Lead From Specific Lead Smelter-Refinery
Installations rule which ensures the permanent and enforceable emission
reductions by clarifying the emissions limits for the Doe Run Resource
Recycling Facility, and removes the text which could have allowed this
facility to resume operation as a primary smelter.
    In the final rules section of today's Federal Register, EPA is
approving the state's SIP revision and redesignation request as a
direct final rule without prior proposal because the Agency views this
as a noncontroversial action 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adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all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.

DATES: Comments on this proposed action must be received in writing by
November 17, 2000.

ADDRESSES: Comments may be mailed to Kim Johnson, Environmental
Protection Agency, Air Planning and Development Branch, 901 North 5th
Street, Kansas City, Kansas 66101.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Kim Johnson at (913) 551-7975.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: See the information provided in the direct
final rule which is located in the rules section of today's Federal
Register.

    Dated: September 27, 2000.

Regional Administrator, Region 7.
