Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans; State of
Tennessee and Memphis-Shelby County, Tennessee

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA proposes to approve the State Implementation Plan (SIP)
revision submitted by the State of Tennessee and by Memphis-Shelby
County for the purpose of establishing a federally enforceable state
operating permit (FESOP) program and a federally enforceable local
operating permit (FELOP) program. In order to extend the Federal
enforceability of Tennessee's FESOP and Memphis-Shelby County's FELOP
to hazardous air pollutants (HAP), EPA is also proposing approval of
the State's FESOP and County's FELOP 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 Tennessee's and
Memphis-Shelby County's SIP revisions as a direct final rule without
prior proposal because the Agency views this as noncontroversial
revision amendments and anticipates no adverse comments. A detailed
rationale for the approvals 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withdrawn and all public comments received will be addressed in a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 approval action. Any parties
interested in commenting on this action should do so at this time.

DATES: To be considered, comments must be received by March 17, 1997.
