Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans Tennessee:

Approval of Revisions to the Tennessee State Implementation Plan

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve revisions to the Tennessee State

Implementation Plan (SIP) submitted on June 21, 1993, and June 22,

1993, by the State of Tennessee, through the Tennessee Department of

Environment and Conservation (DEC), submitted revisions to the

Tennessee State Implementation Plan (SIP). The submittal of June 21,

1993 revises Chapter 1200-3-14 Control of Sulfur Dioxide Emissions and

the submittal of June 22, 1993 revises Chapter 1200-3-10 Required

Sampling, Recording and Reporting. On December 17, 1993, the Memphis

Shelby County Health Department, through the Tennessee DEC, submitted

revisions to Section 16-85 of the Memphis Shelby County Portion of the

Tennessee SIP which adopt by reference revisions to Chapter 1200-3-10

of the Tennessee SIP. The intended effect of this revision is to

clarify certain provisions and ensure consistency with the Clean Air

Act.

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

approving the State's SIP revision as a direct final rule without prior

proposal because the EPA 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 this proposed 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receives adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and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 April 18, 1996.

ADDRESSES: Written comments on this action should be addressed to Mr.

Scott M. Martin 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
