## Abstract

EPA is taking direct final action to approve a revision to the State Implementation Plan (SIP) and Operating Permits Program to amend the definitions provisions of the rules. This SIP revision and revision to the Missouri operating permits program add the compounds propylene carbonate and dimethyl carbonate to the list of compounds which are excluded from the definition of Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) for consistency with the Federal definition of VOC. The SIP revision also corrects two asbestos method subpart references. This revision also approves Missouri's request to amend the SIP to meet the 2008 fine particulate matter (PM<INF>2.5</INF>)<INF></INF> National Ambient Air Quality Standards implementation requirements of the May 16, 2008, New Source Review (NSR) PM<INF>2.5</INF> Rule. In this SIP revision, Missouri adopted rule revisions to establish the requirement for NSR permits to address directly emitted PM<INF>2.5</INF> and precursor pollutants; and significant emission rates for direct PM<INF>2.5</INF> and precursor pollutants (sulfur dioxide (SO<INF>2</INF>) and nitrogen dioxide (NO<INF>X</INF>)).
