[NC72-1-6953b; FRL-5258-5]


Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans and Designation 
of Areas for Air Quality Planning Purposes; State of North Carolina

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 North Carolina for the purpose 
of redesignating the areas of Charlotte and Raleigh/Durham to 
attainment for carbon monoxide (CO). 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 

[[Page 39299]]
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adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all 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 September 1, 
1995.

ADDRESSES: Written comments should be sent to Ben Franco, EPA Region 4, 
Air Programs Branch, 345 Courtland Street NE, Atlanta, Georgia, 30365.

submittals are available for public review during normal business hours 
at the addresses listed below. EPA's technical support document (TSD)
