Approval and Promulgation of Air
Quality Implementation Plan:
Kentucky; Approval Section 110(a)(1)
Maintenance Plan for the 1997 8-Hour
Ozone Standard for the Paducah Area;
Limited Reopening of Comment Period
sroberts on DSKD5P82C1PROD with PROPOSALS
AGENCY: Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule; limited
reopening of the comment period.
SUMMARY: EPA is announcing a 30-day
reopening of the public comment period
for the proposed rule entitled ‘‘Approval
and Promulgation of Air Quality
Implementation Plan: Kentucky;
Approval Section 110(a)(1) Maintenance
Plan for the 1997 8-Hour Ozone
Standard for the Paducah Area,’’ for the
purpose of limited public review and
comment of supplemental information
that was provided by the
Commonwealth of Kentucky on July 15,
2009, in support of the Paducah Area
110(a)(1) maintenance plan. The
Paducah, KY Area consists of Marshall
and a portion of Livingston Counties.
The proposed rule was initially
published in the Federal Register on
January 4, 2010. The reason for this
limited reopening of the comment
period is that EPA has learned that
supplemental information relating to
projected emissions for the Paducah
Area that was referenced in the
proposed rulemaking January 4, 2010
(75 FR 97) was inadvertently omitted
from the electronic docket when that
proposed rulemaking was published.
EPA has since made that information
available in the electronic docket and
wants to ensure an opportunity for the
public to comment on that information.
The July 15, 2009 supplemental
information can be viewed online at
https://www.regulations.gov using docket
ID No. EPA–R04–OAR–2007–1186–
0043.
Thus, EPA is reopening the comment
period for an additional thirty days, for
the limited purpose of providing an
opportunity for public comment on the
supplemental information added to the
docket after publication of the proposed
rulemaking.
DATES: The comment period for the
proposed rule published on January 4,
2010 (75 FR 97), is reopened. Comments
must be received on or before March 29,
2010.

Approval and Promulgation of Air
Quality Implementation Plans; Virginia;
Revisions to the Definition of Volatile
Organic Compound and Other Terms
AGENCY: Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
EPA proposes to approve the
State Implementation Plan (SIP)
revision submitted by the
Commonwealth of Virginia consisting of
the amended wording of 22 definitions,
including the definition of Volatile
Organic Compound (VOC). In the Final
Rules section of this Federal Register,
EPA is approving Virginia’s SIP
submittal 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 adverse comments are
received in response to this action, 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.
Any parties interested in commenting
on this action should do so at this time.
DATES: Comments must be received in

SUMMARY: EPA is announcing a 30-day reopening of the public comment
