Краткое содержание

EPA is withdrawing its proposed approval of the request to redesignate the Richmond ozone nonattainment area from moderate nonattainment to attainment and its proposed approval of the associated maintenance plan as a revision to the State Implementation Plan (SIP). Both proposed actions were published in the Federal Register on August 17, 1993. EPA is now proposing to disapprove the request to redesignate the Richmond ozone nonattainment area from moderate nonattainment to attainment and proposing to disapprove the maintenance plan as a revision to the SIP. The intended effect of these actions is to withdraw the August 17, 1993 proposed approval of the request to redesignate Richmond and the proposed approval of the maintenance plan, and to propose to disapprove both the redesignation request and associated maintenance plan SIP revision. The redesignation request and maintenance plan SIP revision were submitted by the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality (VDEQ) on November 12, 1992. These actions are being taken in accordance with the provisions of section 110 of the Clean Air Act. DATES: Comments must be received on or before March 2, 1994.
