Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans;

Pennsylvania: Control of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) From Surface

Coating, Pneumatic Rubber Tire Manufacturing, Graphic Arts and

Synthetic Organic Chemical Manufacturing Industry (SOCMI) Equipment

Leaks

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA proposes to approve the State Implementation Plan (SIP)

revision submitted by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania for the purpose

of correcting deficiencies and adding requirements for the control of

volatile organic compounds from surface coating, pneumatic rubber tire

manufacturing, graphic arts, and synthetic organic chemical

manufacturing industry equipment leaks. In the final rules section of

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

direct final rule without prior proposal because the Agency views this

as a noncontroversial SIP revision 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 this proposed

rule, no further activity is contemplated in relation to this 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EPA receives adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn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. 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 must be received in writing by January 23, 1995.

ADDRESSES: Written comments on this action should be addressed to
