Document Number: 2013-13351
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2013-06-06
Agency: Environmental Protection Agency
EPA is proposing to remove over fifty rules in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) at 40 CFR part 52 for Delaware, the District of Columbia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and West Virginia because they are unnecessary or obsolete. EPA is also proposing to clarify regulations in 40 CFR part 52 which reflect updated citations of certain Commonwealth of Virginia rules due to the Commonwealth's recodification of its regulations at the state level. These proposed actions make no substantive changes to these State Implementation Plans (SIPs) and impose no new requirements. In the Final Rules section of this Federal Register, EPA is approving these determinations 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 If EPA receives adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be addressed in a subsequent final rule based on this proposed rule.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.
