The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) proposes to approve the 2011 base year inventories for the 2008 8-hour ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) for New Castle and Sussex Counties, submitted by the State of Delaware as a revision to the Delaware State Implementation Plan (SIP). In the Final Rules section of this Federal Register, EPA is approving the State's SIP submittal as a direct final rule without prior proposal because the Agency views this as a noncontroversial submittal and anticipates no adverse comments. The rationale for the approval is set forth in the direct final rule. A more detailed description of the state submittal and EPA's evaluation is included in a Technical Support Document (TSD) prepared in support of this rulemaking action. A copy of the TSD is available, upon request, from the EPA Regional Office listed in the ADDRESSES section of this document. 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 If EPA receives adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be addressed in a subsequent final rule based on this proposed rule.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.

Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans; 
Delaware; 2011 Base Year Inventories for the 2008 8-Hour Ozone National 
Ambient Air Quality Standard for New Castle and Sussex Counties

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) proposes to approve 
the 2011 base year inventories for the 2008 8-hour ozone National 
Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) for New Castle and Sussex 
Counties, submitted by the State of Delaware as a revision to the 
Delaware State Implementation Plan (SIP). In the Final Rules section of 
this Federal Register, EPA is approving the State's SIP submittal as a 
direct final rule without prior proposal because the Agency views this 
as a noncontroversial submittal and anticipates no adverse comments. 
The rationale for the approval is set forth in the direct final rule. A 
more detailed description of the state submittal and EPA's evaluation 
is included in a Technical Support Document (TSD) prepared in support 
of this rulemaking action. A copy of the TSD is available, upon 
request, from the EPA Regional Office listed in the ADDRESSES section 
of this document. 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 November 2, 2015.

comment that is placed in the public docket and made available on the

include your name and other contact information in the body of your

clarification, EPA may not be able to consider your comment. Electronic 
files should avoid the use of special characters, any form of 
encryption, and be free of any defects or viruses.
    Docket: All documents in the electronic docket are listed in the 
www.regulations.gov index. Although listed in the index, some 
information is not publicly available, i.e., CBI or other information 
whose disclosure is restricted by statute. Certain other material, such 
as copyrighted material, is not placed on the Internet and will be 
publicly available only in hard copy form. Publicly available docket 
materials are available either electronically in www.regulations.gov or
