Clean Air Act Attainment Extension for the New York-Northern New Jersey-Long IslandConsolidated Metropolitan Statistical Carbon Monoxide Nonattainment Area

요약

EPA is proposing to grant the one (1) year attainment date extension request for the New York-Northern New Jersey-Long Island Consolidated Metropolitan Statistical Carbon Monoxide nonattainment area (NYCMSA) which includes parts of two counties in southwestern Connecticut. EPA's determination to grant the extension is based on the fact that the NYCMSA has demonstrated compliance with the requirements of section 186(a)(4) of the Clean Air Act (CAA). In the Final Rules Section of this Federal Register, EPA is approving the States' request for an extension as a direct final rule without prior proposal because the Agency views this as a noncontroversial revision 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 that direct final rule no further activity is contemplated in relation to this proposed rule. If EPA receives adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be addressed in a subsequent final rule based on this proposed rule. The EPA will not institute a second comment period on this document. Any parties interested i
