## Abstract

The EPA is approving a site-specific revision to the Minnesota sulfur dioxide (SO<INF>2</INF>) State Implementation Plan (SIP) for the Xcel Energy (formerly known as Northern States Power Company) Inver Hills Generating Plant located in the city of Inver Grove Heights, Dakota County, Minnesota. By its submittal dated August 9, 2002, the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) requested that EPA approve Xcel's federally enforceable Title V operating permit into the Minnesota SO2 SIP and remove the Xcel Administrative Order from the state SO<INF>2</INF> SIP. The state is also requesting in this submittal, that EPA rescind the Administrative Order for Ashbach Construction Company (Ashbach) from the Ramsey County particulate matter (PM) SIP. The requests are approvable because they satisfies the requirements of the Clean Air Act (Act). The rationale for the approval and other information are provided in this rulemaking action.
