Summary

EPA proposes to approve the State Implementation Plan (SIP) revision submitted by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. The SIP revision adds section 2105.88—Consumer Products to Allegheny County Health Department (ACHD) Rules and Regulations, Article XXI, Air Pollution Control, to incorporate by reference 25 Pa. Code sections 130.201-130.471 (Consumer Products) of PADEP's Air Pollution Control Act to reduce emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOC). In the Final Rules section of this Federal Register, EPA is approving the Commonwealth's SIP submittal as a direct final rule without prior proposal because EPA 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 action, 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 If EPA receives adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be addressed in a subsequent final rule based on this proposed rule.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.

Dates

Comments must be received in writing by December 31, 2012.
