## Abstract

EPA is taking final action to fully approve the operating permits program submitted by the State of Washington. Washington's operating permits program was submitted in response to the directive in the Clean Air Act that permitting authorities develop, and submit to EPA, programs for issuing operating permits to all major stationary sources and to certain other sources within the permitting authority's jurisdiction. EPA granted interim approval to Washington's air operating permit program on November 9, 1994 (59 FR 55813); EPA repromulgated final interim approval on one issue, and a notice of correction for Washington's operating permits program, on December 8, 1995 (60 FR 62992). The state and local agencies that implement the Washington operating permits program have revised their programs to satisfy the conditions of the interim approval and this action approves those revisions.
