Agency
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
Action
Proposed rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Summary
The EPA proposes to approve the State Implementation Plan (SIP) revision submitted by the State of Florida which revises the emissions budget for use in determination of Transportation Conformity in the Florida Southeast counties of Dade, Broward and Palm Beach. In the final rules section of this Federal Register, the EPA is approving the State's SIP revision as a direct final rule without a prior proposal because the Agency views this as a noncontroversial revision 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 that direct final rule, no further activity is contemplated in relation to this proposed rule. If EPA receives adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be addressed in a subsequent final rule based on this proposed rule. The EPA will not institute a second comment period on this document. Any parties interested in commenting on this document should do so at this time.
Dates
To be considered, comments must be received by November 23, 1998.
