## Abstract

The EPA is promulgating final full approval of the operating permit program submitted by the State of New York in accordance with Title V of the Clean Air Act (the Act) and its implementing regulations codified. This approved program allows New York to issue federally enforceable operating permits to all major stationary sources and to certain other sources within the State's jurisdiction. However, because certain of the regulations are emergency rules that will expire on December 21, 2001, unless extended, EPA is approving this program only until the expiration date of the emergency rules. EPA has proposed approval of permanent rules that are substantively the same as the emergency rules and the State expects to submit those rules in final adopted form shortly. Once these rules become effective, EPA will promulgate another final program approval to replace this action. In the interim, the emergency rules will still be in effect and, therefore, New York will still have a fully approved program. If EPA has not approved the State's revised permanent rules before the emergency rules expire, New York's title V permit program will expire and the federal program will automatically apply. If New York's emergency rules expire as discussed above and a federal program under part 71 takes effect in the state, EPA will provide notice to the public within two weeks of the effective date of the federal program in a subsequent Federal Register document. Because EPA received adverse comments on the proposed action published in the October 25, 2001 Federal Register (66 FR 53966), this action responds to those comments.
