ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 52
[CA 011-0063b; FRL-5966-9]
Approval and Promulgation of State Implementation Plans;
California State Implementation Plan Revision, San Diego County Air
Pollution Control District, Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve revisions to the California State
Implementation Plan (SIP) that concern ten administrative and
traditional source category rules.
The intended effect of proposing approval of these rules is to
regulate emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), oxides of
nitrogen (NOX) and other pollutants in accordance with the
requirements of the Clean Air Act, as amended in 1990 (CAA or the Act).
In the Final Rules Section of this Federal Register, the
[[Page 11863]]
EPA is approving the state's SIP revision as a direct final rule
without prior proposal because the Agency views this as a
noncontroversial revision and anticipates no adverse comments. A
detailed rationale for this approval is set forth in the direct final
rule. If no adverse comments are received in response to this proposed
rule, no further activity is contemplated in relation to this rule. If
EPA receives adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn
and all public comments received will be addressed in a subsequent
final rule based on this proposed rule. The EPA will not institute a
second comment period on this document. Any parties interested in
commenting on this action should do so at this time.
DATES: Comments on this proposed rule must be received in writing by
April 10, 1998.
ADDRESSES: Written comments on this action should be addressed to:
Andrew Steckel, Rulemaking Office [AIR-4], Air Division, U.S.
