Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans; Texas; Revisions to Consumer Products Rules

Résumé

The EPA is proposing to take direct final action on revisions to the Texas Natural Resource Conservation Commission Regulation V in the Texas State Implementation Plan (SIP). These revisions amend the consumer products rules to exclude a new type of insecticide designed to kill house dust mites from the volatile organic compound limitation applicable to other crawling bug insecticides. The EPA is approving these revisions to the Texas SIP as requested by the Governor of Texas. In the ``Rules and Regulations'' 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 revision and anticipates no adverse comment. The EPA has explained its reasons for this approval in the preamble to the direct final rule. If EPA receives no relevant adverse comment, EPA will not take further action on this proposed rule. If EPA receives relevant adverse comment, EPA will withdraw the direct final rule and it will not take effect. The EPA will address all public comments in a subsequent final rule based on this proposed rule. The EPA will not institute a second comment period on this action. Any
