Clean Air Act Approval and Promulgation of Lead Implementation

Plan for a Portion of Collin County, TX

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: The EPA today is proposing to approve the State Implementation

Plan (SIP) submitted by the State of Texas for the purpose of bringing

about the attainment of the national ambient air quality standard for

lead. The SIP was submitted by the State to satisfy certain Federal

requirements, found in the Federal Clean Air Act, for an approvable

nonattainment area lead SIP for Collin County, Texas.

In the final rules section of this Federal Register, the EPA is

approving this SIP revision as a direct final rulemaking without prior

proposal because the EPA views this action as noncontroversial 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 or this proposed rule,

no further activity is contemplated in relation to this proposed rule.

If the 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withdrawn, and all public comments received will be addressed in a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 action. Any parties

interested in commenting on this action should do so at this time.

DATES: Comments on this proposed rule must be received in writing by

December 29, 1994.

ADDRESSES: Comments should be mailed to Thomas H. Diggs, Chief, Air

Planning Section (6T-AP), US EPA Region 6, 1445 Ross Avenue, Dallas,

Texas 75202-2733. Copies of the State's petition and other information
