## Abstract

On September 16, 1998, the State of Illinois submitted to EPA amendments to Volatile Organic Material (VOM) rules affecting Illinois' ozone attainment area (the area of the State not including the Chicago and Metro-East ozone nonattainment areas), as a requested revision to the ozone State Implementation Plan (SIP). VOM, as defined by the State of Illinois, is identical to ``Volatile Organic Compounds'' (VOC), as defined by EPA. The amendments contain various deletions of obsolete provisions, changes of some word usage to comport with other Illinois VOM regulations, and the addition of certain exemptions from VOM coating requirements. This rulemaking action approves, using the direct final process, the Illinois SIP revision request.
