ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR PART 52
[TX-155-1-7591b; FRL-7564-6]
 
Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans; Texas; 
Revisions to Regulations for Control of Air Pollution by Permits for 
New Sources and Modifications

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

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

SUMMARY: The EPA proposes to approve revisions to the Texas State 
Implementation Plan (SIP). This includes revisions that the Texas 
Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) submitted to EPA on January 
3, 2003, to require that equipment associated with a new or relocated 
concrete crushing facility be located or operated at least 440 yards 
from any building used as a single or multi-family residence, school, 
or place of worship. This action is being taken under section 110 of 
the Federal Clean Air Act, as amended (the Act, or CAA).
    In the ``Rules and Regulations'' section of the Federal Register, 
EPA is approving the State's SIP revision as a direct final rule 
without prior proposal because the Agency considers this as a 
noncontroversial revision 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direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments received 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 upon this proposed 
action. 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. Please note that if EPA receives adverse comment on 
part of this rule and if that part can be severed from the remainder of 
the rule, we may adopt as final those parts of the rule that are not 
subject of an adverse comment.

DATES: Written comments must be received on or before October 30, 2003.

ADDRESSES: Comments may be submitted to Mr. Guy Donaldson, Chief, Air 
Permits Section (6PD-R), Environmental Protection Agency, 1445 Ross 
Avenue, Dallas, Texas 75202-2733. Comments may also be submitted 
electronically, or through hand delivery/courier. Please follow the 
detailed instructions (Part (I)(B)(1)(i) through (iii) of the 
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section) described in the direct final rule 
which is located in the ``Rules and Regulations'' section of this 
Federal Register.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Stanley M. Spruiell of the Air Permits 
Section at (214) 665-7212, or spruiell.stanley@epa.gov.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: For further information, please see the 
information provided in the direct final action, with the same title, 
that is located in the ``Rules and Regulations'' section of this 
Federal Register.

    Dated: September 15, 2003.
Lawrence E. Starfield,
Deputy Regional Administrator, Region 6.
