Approval and Promulgation of Air
Quality Implementation Plans;
Medford-Ashland PM10 Attainment
Plan, Maintenance Plan and
Redesignation Request
Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
wwhite on PROD1PC61 with PROPOSALS
SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve
a PM10 State Implementation Plan (SIP)
attainment plan and maintenance plan
for the Medford-Ashland, Oregon
nonattainment area (Medford-Ashland
NAA) and to redesignate the area from
nonattattainment to attainment for
PM10. In addition, EPA is proposing to
approve revisions to Oregon’s statewide
industrial source rules for new and
modified major industrial sources of
PM10 and revisions to the area-specific
industrial source rules that apply in the
Medford-Ashland NAA. EPA is
proposing to approve the SIP revision
and redesignation request because the
State adequately demonstrates that the
control measures being implemented in
the Medford-Ashland nonattainment
area result in attainment and
maintenance of the PM10 National
Ambient Air Quality Standards and all
other requirements of the Clean Air Act
for redesignation to attainment are met.
DATES: Comments must be received on
or before July 19, 2006.
ADDRESSES: Submit your comments,
identified by Docket ID No. EPA–R10–
OAR–2006–0316, by one of the
following methods:

instructions for submitting comments.
Jkt 208001
For
further information, please see the
direct final action, of the same title,
which is located in the Rules section of
this Federal Register. EPA is approving
the State’s SIP revision as a direct final
rule without prior proposal because
EPA 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 EPA receives no
adverse comments, EPA will not take
further action on this proposed rule.
If EPA receives adverse comments,
EPA will withdraw the direct final rule
and it will not take effect. EPA will
address all public comments in a
subsequent final rule based on this
proposed rule. EPA will not institute a
second comment period on this action.
Any parties interested in commenting
on this action should do so at this time.
Please note that if we receive adverse
comment on an amendment, paragraph,
or section of this rule and if that
provision may be severed from the
remainder of the rule, EPA may adopt
as final those provisions of the rule that
are not the subject of an adverse
comment.

Proposed Flood Elevation
Determinations
Federal Emergency
Management Agency (FEMA),
Department of Homeland Security.
ACTION: Proposed rule.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: Technical information or
comments are requested on the
proposed Base (1% annual-chance)
Flood Elevations (BFEs) and proposed
BFE modifications for the communities
listed below. The BFEs and modified
BFEs are the basis for the floodplain
management measures that the
community is required either to adopt
or to show evidence of being already in
effect in order to qualify or remain
qualified for participation in the
National Flood Insurance Program
(NFIP).
DATES: The comment period is ninety
(90) days following the second
publication of this proposed rule in a
newspaper of local circulation in each
community.
ADDRESSES: The proposed BFEs for each
community are available for inspection
at the office of the Chief Executive
Officer of each community. The
respective addresses are listed in the
table below.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
William Blanton, Engineering
Management Section, Mitigation
Division, Federal Emergency
Management Agency, 500 C Street SW.,
Washington, DC 20472, (202) 646–3151.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: FEMA
proposes to make determinations of
BFEs and modified BFEs for each
community listed below, in accordance
with section 110 of the Flood Disaster
Protection Act of 1973, 42 U.S.C. 4104,
and 44 CFR 67.4(a).
These proposed BFEs and modified
BFEs, together with the floodplain
management criteria required by 44 CFR
60.3, are the minimum that are required.
They should not be construed to mean
that the community must change any
existing ordinances that are more
stringent in their floodplain
management requirements. The
community may at any time enact
stricter requirements of its own, or
pursuant to policies established by other
Federal, State, or regional entities.

buildings.
National Environmental Policy Act.
This proposed rule is categorically
excluded from the requirements of 44
CFR part 10, Environmental

the requirements of the Regulatory
Flexibility Act because proposed or
modified BFEs are required by the Flood
Disaster Protection Act of 1973, 42
U.S.C. 4104, and are required to
establish and maintain community
eligibility in the NFIP. No regulatory
flexibility analysis has been prepared.
Regulatory Classification. This
proposed rule is not a significant
regulatory action under the criteria of
Section 3(f) of Executive Order 12866 of
September 30, 1993, Regulatory
Planning and Review, 58 FR 51735.
