ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Part 52

TX-95-1-7379b; FRL-6104-3Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plan; Texas; Removal of Perchloroethylene Dry Cleaning Systems Rules

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

SUMMARY: This action proposes to approve a revision to Texas Natural Resource Conservation Commission Regulation V (30 TAC Chapter 115) which removes regulations concerning Perchloroethylene Dry Cleaning Systems from the Texas State Implementation Plan (SIP) submitted by the Governor of Texas on November 12, 1997. In the Rules and Regulations section of this Federal Register, EPA is approving the State's SIP revision as a direct final rule without prior proposal because the Agency views this as a noncontroversial revision and anticipates no adverse comments. The 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 rule. If EPA receives adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments received during the 30-day comment period set forth below will be addressed in a subsequent final rule based on this proposed rule. Any parties interested in commenting on this action should do so at this time.

DATES: Comments on this proposed rule must be received in writing by July 6, 1998.

ADDRESSES: Written comments on this action should be addressed to Mr. Thomas H. Diggs, Chief, Air Planning Section, at the EPA Region 6 office listed below. Copies of documents relevant to this action are available for public inspection during normal business hours at the following locations. Anyone wanting to examine these documents should make an appointment with the appropriate office at least two working days in advance.
