Metropolitan Statistical Area

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: We, the EPA, are proposing to take direct final action to 
approve a revision to the Louisiana SIP for Beauregard, St. Mary, 
Lafayette, and Grant Parishes and the New Orleans Consolidated 
Metropolitan Statistical Area (CMSA) ozone maintenance areas. The 
revision involves changes to the approved contingency plans.

DATES: Written comments must be received by May 21, 2003.

ADDRESSES: Written comments should be addressed to Mr. Thomas H. Diggs, 
Chief, Air Planning Section (6PD-L), at the EPA Region 6 Office listed 
below. Copies of documents relevant to this action are available for 
public inspection during normal business hours at the following 
locations. Anyone wanting to examine these documents should make an 
appointment with the appropriate office at least two working days in 
advance.
    Environmental Protection Agency, Region 6, Air Planning Section 
(6PD-L), 1445 Ross Avenue, Suite 700, Dallas, Texas 75202-2733.
    Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality, Air Quality

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Joe Kordzi of the EPA Region 6 Air 
Planning Section, at (214) 665-7186 and at the Region 6 address above.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the ``Rules and Regulations'' section of 
this Federal Register, EPA is approving the State's SIP revision as a 
direct final rule without prior proposal because EPA views this as a 
noncontroversial revision and anticipates no adverse comment. The EPA 
has explained its reasons for this approval in the preamble to the 
direct final rule. If EPA receives no relevant adverse comment, EPA 
will not take further action on this proposed rule. If EPA receives 
relevant adverse comment, EPA will withdraw the direct final rule and 
it will not take effect. The EPA will address all public comments in a 
subsequent final rule based on this proposed rule. The EPA will not 
institute a second comment period on this action. Any parties 
interested in commenting must do so at this time.
    For additional information, see the direct final rule located in 
the ``Rules and Regulations'' section of this Federal Register.

    Authority: 42 U.S.C. 7401 et seq.

    Dated: April 10, 2003.
Richard E. Greene,
Regional Administrator, Region 6.
