{"abstract":"EPA is proposing to approve a State Implementation Plan (SIP) revision submitted by the State of Connecticut. This action approves a revision to the Connecticut State Implementation Plan (SIP). The revision consists of approving revisions to subsections 22a-174-20(s), 22a-174-20(v), and 22a-174-20(ee) of Connecticut's regulations, which define reasonably available control technology (RACT) for certain types of sources of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), as meeting the requirements of the CAA. This action also involves the conditional approval of a new section 22a-174-32 which defines RACT for certain types of sources of VOCs. In the Final Rules Section of this Federal Register, EPA is approving the State's SIP revision as a direct final rule without prior proposal because the Agency views this as a noncontroversial revision amendment and anticipates no adverse comments. A detailed rationale for the approval is set forth in the direct final rule. If no relevant adverse comments are received in response to this action, 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 If EPA receives adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be addressed in a subsequent final rule based on this proposed rule. EPA will not institute a second comment period on this proposal. Any parties interested in commenting on this proposal should do so at this time.","action":"Proposed rule.","agencies":[{"raw_name":"ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY","name":"Environmental Protection Agency","id":145,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/environmental-protection-agency","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/145","parent_id":null,"slug":"environmental-protection-agency"}],"body_html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/html/1999/03/10/99-2978.html","cfr_references":[{"chapter":null,"citation_url":null,"part":52,"title":40}],"citation":"64 FR 12025","comment_url":null,"comments_close_on":"1999-04-09","correction_of":null,"corrections":[],"dates":"Written comments must be received on or before April 9, 1999.","disposition_notes":null,"docket_ids":["CT-17-1-6536b","A-1-FRL-6225-3"],"dockets":[],"document_number":"99-2978","effective_on":null,"end_page":12025,"executive_order_notes":null,"executive_order_number":null,"explanation":null,"full_text_xml_url":null,"html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/1999/03/10/99-2978/approval-and-promulgation-of-air-quality-implementation-plans-connecticut-voc-ract-catch-up","images":{},"images_metadata":{},"json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/documents/99-2978?publication_date=1999-03-10","mods_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/metadata/granule/FR-1999-03-10/99-2978/mods.xml","not_received_for_publication":null,"page_length":1,"page_views":{"count":6,"last_updated":"2026-04-04 16:15:04 -0400"},"pdf_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-1999-03-10/pdf/99-2978.pdf","presidential_document_number":null,"proclamation_number":null,"public_inspection_pdf_url":null,"publication_date":"1999-03-10","raw_text_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/text/1999/03/10/99-2978.txt","regulation_id_number_info":{},"regulation_id_numbers":[],"regulations_dot_gov_info":{"checked_regulationsdotgov_at":"2011-09-21T01:40:47Z"},"regulations_dot_gov_url":null,"significant":null,"signing_date":null,"start_page":12025,"subtype":null,"title":"Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans; Connecticut; VOC RACT Catch-up","toc_doc":null,"toc_subject":null,"topics":[],"type":"Proposed Rule","volume":64}
