Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans Alabama:

Revisions to the Alabama Department of Environmental Management

Administrative Code for the Air Pollution Control Program

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: The EPA proposes to approve the State implementation plan

(SIP) revision submitted by the State of Alabama through the Department

of Environmental Management on August 14, 1995, the State of Alabama

through the Department of Environmental Management (ADEM) submitted a

State Implementation Plan (SIP) submittal to revise the ADEM

Administrative Code for the Air Pollution Control Program. These

revisions involve changes to Chapter 335-3-14--Air Permits, and were

made to comply with the requirements of the Clean Air Act (CAA). In the

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

State of Alabama'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receives adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and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. The 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 13, 1996.

ADDRESSES: Written comments on this action should be addressed to

Kimberly Bingham, at the EPA Regional Office listed below. Copies of

the documents relative to this action are available for public

inspection during normal business hours at the following locations. The

interested persons wanting to examine these documents should make an

appointment with the appropriate office at least 24 hours before the
