Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans; Tennessee: Revisions to Volatile Organic Compound Definition
AGENCY:
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION:
Proposed rule.
SUMMARY:
EPA is proposing to approve revisions to the Tennessee State Implementation Plan (SIP), submitted by the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation on September 7, 1998. This revision adds 16 compounds to the list of compounds excluded from the definition of "Volatile Organic Compounds." In the Final Rules Section of this Federal Register , EPA is approving the State's SIP revision as a direct final rule without prior proposal because the Agency 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 significant, material, and adverse comments are received in response to this rule, 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 If EPA receives adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be addressed in a subsequent final rule based on this proposed rule.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 on this document. Any parties interested in commenting on this document should do so at this time.
DATES:
Written comments must be received on or before May 15, 2006.
