BILLING CODE 4830-01-P ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY 40 CFR Part 52 [EPA-R05-OAR-2007-1102; EPA-R05-OAR-2008-0782; FRL-9714-6] Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans; Ohio; PBR and PTIO AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). ACTION: Proposed rule. SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve six Permit-by-Rule provisions, a Permit to Install and Operate program, two permanent exemptions from the Permit to Install requirement and a general permit program as additions to Ohio's State Implementation Plan under the Clean Air Act.
The Ohio Environmental Protection Agency has requested these rule revisions to make its air pollution permit program more efficient. Approving these additions will make the Permits by Rule, Permits to Install and Operate and general permits federally enforceable. Because these rule revisions will make Ohio's air permit program more efficient while continuing to protect human health and the environment, EPA is taking direct final action to approve the revisions. DATES: Comments must be received on or before October 31, 2012.

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 If EPA receives adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be addressed in a subsequent final rule based on this proposed rule.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. Any parties interested in commenting on this action should do so at this time. Please note that if EPA receives adverse comment on an amendment, paragraph, or section of this rule and if that provision may be severed from the remainder of the rule, EPA may adopt as final those provisions 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: July 20, 2012. Susan Hedman, Regional Administrator, Region 5.
