The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to approve elements of a State Implementation Plan (SIP) revision from the State of Missouri for the 2008 Ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS). Section 110 of the CAA requires that each state adopt and submit a SIP for the implementation, maintenance, and enforcement of each new or revised NAAQS promulgated by EPA. These SIPs are commonly referred to as ``infrastructure'' SIPs. The infrastructure requirements are designed to ensure that the structural components of each state's air quality management program are adequate to meet the state's responsibilities under the CAA. In the ``Rules and Regulations'' section of this Federal Register, we are approving the state's SIP revisions as a direct final rule without a prior proposed rule. If we receive no adverse comment, we will not take further action on this proposed rule.

Approval of Missouri Air Quality Implementation Plans; 
Infrastructure SIP Requirements for the 2008 Ozone National Ambient Air 
Quality Standard

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to 
approve elements of a State Implementation Plan (SIP) revision from the 
State of Missouri for the 2008 Ozone National Ambient Air Quality 
Standard (NAAQS). Section 110 of the CAA requires that each state adopt 
and submit a SIP for the implementation, maintenance, and enforcement 
of each new or revised NAAQS promulgated by EPA. These SIPs are 
commonly referred to as ``infrastructure'' SIPs. The infrastructure 
requirements are designed to ensure that the structural components of 
each state's air quality management program are adequate to meet the 
state's responsibilities under the CAA. In the ``Rules and 
Regulations'' section of this Federal Register, we are approving the 
state's SIP revisions as a direct final rule without a prior proposed 
rule. If we receive no adverse comment, we will not take further action 
on this proposed rule.

DATES: Comments must be received by November 6, 2017.

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, identified by Docket ID No. EPA-R07-
OAR-2015-0356, to https://www.regulations.gov. Follow the online 
instructions for submitting comments. Once submitted, comments cannot 
be edited or removed from Regulations.gov. The EPA may publish any

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This document proposes to take action on the 
State of Missouri Infrastructure SIP revision for the 2008 Ozone NAAQS. 
We have published a direct final rule approving the State's SIP 
revision (s) in the ``Rules and Regulations'' section of this Federal 
Register, because we view this as a noncontroversial action and 
anticipate no relevant adverse comment. We have explained our reasons 
for this action in the preamble to the direct final rule. If we receive 
no adverse comment, we will not take further action on this proposed 
rule. If we receive adverse comment, we will withdraw the direct final 
rule and it will not take effect. We would address all public comments 
in any subsequent final rule based on this proposed rule. We do not 
intend to 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 information provided in the ADDRESSES 
section of this document.
