40 CFR Part 52

[TN-195-9947(b), TN-188-9959(b); FRL-6519-5]


Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans; 
Tennessee; Revision to Rule Governing Monitoring Of Source Emissions

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: On February 24, 1997, and May 8, 1997, the Tennessee 
Department of Environment and Conservation submitted to EPA revisions 
to the Tennessee State Implementation Plan (SIP). These revisions 
consisted of amendments to Rules 1200-3-12-.04 Monitoring Required for 
Determining Compliance of Certain Large Sources and 1200-3-10-.02 
Monitoring of Source Emissions, Recording, and Reporting of the Same 
are Required. Tennessee submitted these revisions to clarify the 
reporting requirements. In the final rules section of this Federal 
Register, the EPA is approving the 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 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EPA receives adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn 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 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 
should do so at this time.

DATES: Comments must be received by February 7, 2000.

ADDRESSES: Written comments on this action should be addressed to Randy 
Terry at the Environmental Protection Agency, Region 4 Air Planning 
Branch, 61 Forsyth Street, SW, Atlanta, Georgia 30303.
