Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans Georgia: State

Implementation Plan Revision

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve the State Implementation Plan

(SIP) revision submitted by the Georgia Department of Natural

Resources, through the Georgia Environmental Protection Division, on

June 25, 2008. The revisions include modifications to Georgia's Air

Quality Rules found at Chapters 391-3-1-.01, and 391-3-1-.02, pertaining to ``Definitions,'' and ``Emission Limitations and

Standards,'' respectively. This action is being taken pursuant to section 110 of the Clean Air Act.

In the Final Rules 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 submittal 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 rule, no further activity is contemplated. If EPA receives adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be addressed in a subsequent final rule based on this proposed rule.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 document. Any parties interested in commenting on this document should do so at this time.

DATES: Written comments must be received on or before July 13, 2009.

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, identified by Docket ID No. EPA-R04-

OAR-2008-0831, by one of the following methods: 1. www.regulations.gov: Follow the on-line instructions for submitting comments. 2. E-mail: harder.stacy@epa.gov. 3. Fax: 404-562-9019. 4. Mail: ``EPA-R04-OAR-2008-0831,'' Regulatory Development Section,
