Approval and Promulgation of Sulfur Dioxide State Implementation

Plan, North Carolina: Approval of Texasgulf, Incorporated, Air Permit

No. 2331R10

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: The EPA proposes to approve the state implementation plan

(SIP) revision submitted by the State of North Carolina for the purpose

of establishing the issuance of air permit number 2331R10 to Texasgulf,

Incorporated, located in Aurora, Beaufort County, North Carolina. This

permit set the sulfur dioxide emission limit at 2.3 pounds per million

British Thermal Units. In the final rules section of this Federal

Register, the EPA is approving the State's SIP revision as a direct

final rule without prior proposal because the EPA views this as a

noncontroversial revision amendment and anticipates no adverse

comments. A detailed rationale for the approval is set forth in the

direct final rule. If no adverse comments are received in response to

that direct final rule, no further activity is contemplated in relation

to this proposed rule. 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final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be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 on this document. Any

parties interested in commenting on this document should do so at this

time.

DATES: To be considered, comments must be received by November 17,

1994.

ADDRESSES: Written comments on this action should be addressed to Mr.

Randy Terry at the EPA Regional Office listed.
