SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

This document concerns the delegation of unchanged NESHAPs to the Nevada Division of Environmental Protection—Bureau of Air Pollution Control. In the Rules and Regulations section of this

Federal Register

, EPA is amending regulations to reflect the current delegation status of NESHAPs in Nevada. EPA is taking direct final action without prior proposal because the Agency views this as a noncontroversial action and anticipates no adverse comments. A detailed rationale for this approval is set forth in the direct final rule. If no adverse comments are received, no further activity is planned. If EPA receives adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be addressed in a subsequent final rule based on this proposed rule. The EPA will not institute a second comment period. Any parties interested in commenting should do so at this time. For further information, please see the direct final action.

This action is issued under the authority of section 112 of the Clean Air Act, as amended, 42 U.S.C. 7412.

Dated: May 18, 2004.
