ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Part 52

[DC 13-1-6552b; FRL-5177-8]

Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans;
District of Columbia; Disapproval of New Source Review Regulations

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA proposes to disapprove a State Implementation Plan (SIP)
revision submitted by the District of Columbia pertaining to the
regulation of major new and major modified sources locating in the
District of Columbia. The intended effect of this action is to
disapprove the District of Columbia regulations because they do not
meet the requirements of the Clean Air Act. This action is being taken
under section 110 of the Clean Air Act. In the Final Rules section of
this Federal Register, EPA is disapproving the State's SIP revision as
a direct final rule without prior proposal because the Agency has
determined that the rationale to disapprove this SIP revision strongly
supports that decision and anticipates no adverse comments. A detailed
rationale for the disapproval is set forth in the direct final rule and
in the accompanying technical support document. 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comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public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 April 24, 1995.

ADDRESSES: Written comments on this action should be addressed to
Marcia L. Spink, Associate Director, Air Programs (3AT00), U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency, Region III, 841 Chestnut Building,
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19107. Copies of the documents relevant to
this action are available for public inspection during normal business
hours at the Air, Radiation, and Toxics Division, U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency, Region III, 841 Chestnut Building, Philadelphia,
Pennsylvania 19107 and the District of Columbia Department of Consumer
