Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans and Operating

Permits Program; State of Missouri

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

SUMMARY: EPA proposes to approve a revision to the Missouri State

Implementation Plan (SIP) and Operating Permits Program. EPA proposes to approve a revision to the Missouri rule entitled ``Submission of

Emission Data, Emission Fees, and Process Information.'' These revisions will establish emission fees for the Missouri facilities as required annually, align state rule reporting requirements with the

Federal Consolidated Emission Reporting Rule, and decrease the required

Emissions Inventory Questionnaire reporting frequency for affected installations.

DATES: Comments on this proposed action must be received in writing by

October 15, 2008.

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, identified by Docket ID No. EPA-R07-

OAR-2008-0614, by mail to Amy Algoe-Eakin, Environmental Protection

Agency, Air Planning and Development Branch, 901 North 5th Street,

Kansas City, Kansas 66101. Comments may also be submitted electronically or through hand delivery/courier by following the detailed instructions in the ADDRESSES section of the direct final rule located in the rules section of this Federal Register.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Amy Algoe-Eakin at (913) 551-7942, or by e-mail at algoe-eakin.amy@epa.gov.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the final rules section of the Federal

Register, EPA is approving the state's SIP revision and Title V revision as a direct final rule without prior proposal because the

Agency views this as a noncontroversial revision amendment and anticipates no relevant adverse comments to this action. A detailed rationale for the approval is set forth in the direct final rule. If no relevant adverse comments are received in response to this action, no further activity is contemplated in relation to this action. If EPA receives relevant adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be addressed in a subsequent final rule based on this proposed action. EPA will not institute a second comment period on this action. Any parties interested in commenting on this action should do so at this time.

Please note that if EPA receives adverse comment on part of this rule and if that part can be severed from the remainder of the rule, EPA may adopt as final those parts of the rule that are not the subject of an adverse comment. For additional information, see the direct final rule which is located in the rules section of this Federal Register.

Dated: September 4, 2008.

Regional Administrator, Region 7.
