ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 52
[IN140-1b; FRL-7433-6]
 
Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans; Indiana

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

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

SUMMARY: The EPA is proposing to conditionally approve rules submitted 
by the State of Indiana as revisions to its State Implementation 
Plan(SIP) for prevention of significant deterioration (PSD) provisions 
for attainment areas for the Indiana Department of Environmental 
Management.
    In the ``Rules and Regulations'' section of this Federal Register, 
EPA is approving the State's request as a direct final rule without 
prior proposal because EPA views this action as noncontroversial and 
anticipates no adverse comments. The rationale for approval is set 
forth in the direct final rule. If EPA receives no written adverse 
comments, EPA will take no further action on this proposed rule. If EPA 
receives written adverse comment, we will publish a timely withdrawal 
of the direct final rule in the Federal Register and inform the public 
that the rule will not take effect. In that event, EPA will address all 
relevant public comments in a subsequent final rule based on this 
proposed rule. In either event, EPA will not institute a second comment 
period on this action. Any parties interested in commenting must do so 
at this time.

DATES: Comments on this action must be received by February 14, 2003.

ADDRESSES: Written comments should be sent to: Pamela Blakley, Chief, 
Permits and Grants Section (IL/IN/OH), Air Programs Branch (AR-18J), 
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region 5, 77 West Jackson 
Boulevard, Chicago, Illinois 60604.
    A copy of the State's request is available for inspection at the 
above address.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Julie Capasso, Environmental 
Scientist, Permits and Grants Section (IL/IN/OH), Air Programs Branch, 
(AR-18J), U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region 5, 77 West 
Jackson Boulevard, Chicago, Illinois 60604, telephone (312) 886-1426.
