{"abstract":"EPA is taking direct final action to approve revisions to the Pennsylvania state implementation plan (SIP) submitted by the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (PADEP) . The revisions impose reasonably available control technology (RACT) to reduce volatile organic compounds (VOC) from six (6) major sources located in Pennsylvania. EPA is proposing these revisions to impose RACT requirements in accordance with the Clean Air Act. In the ``Rules and Regulations'' section of this Federal Register, EPA is approving the State's SIP submittals as a direct final rule without prior proposal because the Agency views this as a noncontroversial submittal and anticipates no adverse comments. A more detailed description of PADEP's submittals and EPA's evaluation are included in a Technical Support Document (TSD) prepared in support of this rulemaking action. A copy of the TSD is available, upon request, from the EPA Regional Office listed in the ADDRESSES section of this document. If EPA receives no adverse comments, EPA will not take further action on this proposed rule. If EPA receives adverse comments, EPA will withdraw the direct final rule and it will not take effect. EPA will address all public comments in a subsequent final rule based on this proposed rule. EPA will not institute a second comment period on this action. Any parties interested in commenting on this action 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/1999/04/16/99-9463.html","cfr_references":[{"chapter":null,"citation_url":null,"part":52,"title":40}],"citation":"64 FR 18862","comment_url":null,"comments_close_on":"1999-05-17","correction_of":null,"corrections":[],"dates":"Written comments must be received by May 17, 1999.","disposition_notes":null,"docket_ids":["PA129-4083b","FRL-6323-7"],"dockets":[],"document_number":"99-9463","effective_on":null,"end_page":18862,"executive_order_notes":null,"executive_order_number":null,"explanation":null,"full_text_xml_url":null,"html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/1999/04/16/99-9463/approval-and-promulgation-of-air-quality-implementation-plans-pennsylvania-approval-of-voc-ract","images":{},"images_metadata":{},"json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/documents/99-9463?publication_date=1999-04-16","mods_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/metadata/granule/FR-1999-04-16/99-9463/mods.xml","not_received_for_publication":null,"page_length":1,"page_views":{"count":4,"last_updated":"2026-04-04 10:15:04 -0400"},"pdf_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-1999-04-16/pdf/99-9463.pdf","presidential_document_number":null,"proclamation_number":null,"public_inspection_pdf_url":null,"publication_date":"1999-04-16","raw_text_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/text/1999/04/16/99-9463.txt","regulation_id_number_info":{},"regulation_id_numbers":[],"regulations_dot_gov_info":{"checked_regulationsdotgov_at":"2011-09-21T03:19:22Z"},"regulations_dot_gov_url":null,"significant":null,"signing_date":null,"start_page":18862,"subtype":null,"title":"Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans; Pennsylvania; Approval of VOC RACT Determinations for Individual Sources","toc_doc":null,"toc_subject":null,"topics":[],"type":"Proposed Rule","volume":64}
