SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the ``Rules and Regulations'' section of 
this Federal Register, the EPA is approving the State's SIP revision as 
a direct final rule without prior proposal because the agency views 
this as a noncontroversial SIP revision and anticipates no adverse 
comments. A detailed rationale for the approval is set forth in the 
preamble to the direct final rule.
    If the EPA receives no adverse comments, the EPA will not take 
further action on this proposed rule. If the EPA receives adverse 
comments, the EPA will withdraw the direct final rule and it will not 
take effect. The EPA will address all public comments in a subsequent 
final rule based on this proposed rule.
    The EPA will not institute a second comment period on this action. 
Any parties interested in commenting must do so at this time. For 
further information, please see the ADDRESSES section of this notice.
    Please note that if the 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, the EPA may adopt as final 
those provisions of the rule that are not the subject of an adverse 
comment. See the information provided in the Direct Final action of the 
same title which is located in the Rules and Regulations Section of 
this Federal Register.

    Authority: 42 U.S.C. 7401 et seq.
