Determination of Attainment of Ozone Standard by Grand Rapids and

Muskegon, MI; Determination Regarding Applicability of Certain

Reasonable Further Progress and Attainment Demonstration Requirements

AGENCY: United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: The USEPA proposes to determine that the Grand Rapids (Kent

and Ottawa Counties) and Muskegon (Muskegon County) ozone nonattainment

areas have attained the National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS)

for ozone and that certain reasonable further progress and attainment

demonstration requirements, along with certain related requirements, of

part D of title I of the Clean Air Act are not applicable for so long

as the area continues to attain the ozone standard. In the final rules

section of this Federal Register, USEPA is making these determinations

without prior proposal. A detailed rationale for the action 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 USEPA receives adverse comments,

USEPA will withdraw the direct final rule and address the comments in a

subsequent final rule based on this proposed rule. USEPA 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 action must be received by July 3, 1995.

ADDRESSES: Written comments should be mailed to: Carlton T. Nash,

Chief, Regulation Development Section, Air Toxics and Radiation branch
