EPA is approving two redesignation requests submitted by the State of Ohio. This action, which was requested on October 26, 1995, redesignates Lake and Jefferson Counties to attainment of National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) for sulfur dioxide (SO<INF>2</INF>). EPA is also approving the maintenance plans for Lake and Jefferson Counties, to ensure maintenance of the NAAQS, which were submitted with the redesignation requests. In conjunction with these actions, EPA is also approving State-adopted emission limits for the Eastlake Plant (currently operated by First Energy, formerly operated by Cleveland Electric Illuminating), and the Ohio Rubber Company Plant, replacing equivalent limits in the Federal Implementation Plan (FIP) for Lake County. In the proposed rules section of this Federal Register, EPA is proposing approval of, and soliciting comments on, this approval. If adverse written comments are received on this action, EPA will withdraw this final rule and address the comments received in response to this action in a final rule based on the related proposed rule. A second public comment period will not be held. Parties interested in commenting on this action should do so at this time.
