ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 52
[Region II Docket No. NY60-257b; FRL-7519-9]
 
Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans; Reasonably 
Available Control Technology for Oxides of Nitrogen for Specific 
Sources in the State of New York

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

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

SUMMARY: The EPA is proposing to approve a revision to the State 
Implementation Plan (SIP) for ozone submitted by the State of New York. 
This revision consists of source-specific reasonably available control 
technology (RACT) determinations for controlling oxides of nitrogen 
(NOX) emissions from eighteen units at three facilities 
owned by Tenneco Gas Corporation in New York. This rule proposes to 
approve the source-specific RACT determinations that were made by New 
York in accordance with provisions of its regulation. In the ``Rules 
and Regulations'' section of this Federal Register, EPA is approving 
the State's SIP submittal, as a direct final rule without prior 
proposal because the Agency views it as a noncontroversial submittal 
and anticipates no adverse comments.
    A detailed rationale for the approval is set forth in the direct 
final rule. If EPA receives no adverse comments, EPA will not take 
further action on this proposed rule. If EPA receives adverse comments, 
the Agency will withdraw the direct final rule and it will not take 
effect. 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 on 
this action should do so at this time.

DATES: Written comments must be received on or before August 20, 2003.

ADDRESSES: Comments may be submitted either by mail or electronically. 
Written comments should be mailed to Raymond Werner, Chief, Air 
Programs Branch, Environmental Protection Agency, Region II Office, 290
