ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Part 52

[FL-064-1-7179b; FRL-5305-8]

Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans: Florida

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

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

revision submitted by the State of Florida for the purpose of

establishing a Federally enforceable state operating permit (FESOP)

program. In order to extend the Federal enforceability of Florida's

FESOP to hazardous air pollutants (HAP), EPA is also proposing approval

of Florida's FESOP regulations pursuant to section 112 of the Clean Air

Act as amended in 1990 (CAA). 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 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final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be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. 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 March 4, 1996.

ADDRESSES: Written comments should be addressed to: Gracy R. Danois,

Air Programs Branch, Air, Pesticides & Toxics Management Division,
