USEPA is approving, through ``direct final'' procedure, a redesignation request and maintenance plan for the Toledo, Ohio area (Lucas and Wood Counties) as a revision to Ohio's State Implementation Plan (SIP) for ozone. The revision is based on a request from the State of Ohio to redesignate this area from a moderate nonattainment area to an attainment area for ozone, and to approve the maintenance plan for the area. The State has met the requirements for redesignation contained in the Clean Air Act (the Act), as amended in 1990. The redesignation request is based on ambient monitoring data that show no violations of the ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) during the three-year period from 1990 through 1992. In the proposed rules section of this Federal Register, USEPA is proposing approval of and soliciting public comment on this requested redesignation and SIP revision. If adverse comments are received on this direct final rule, USEPA will withdraw this final rule and address these comments in a final rule based on the related proposed rule which is being published in the proposed rules section of this Federal Register.
