Approval and Promulgation of State Implementation Plans;
California State Implementation Plan Revision, South Coast Air Quality
Management District
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve a revision to the California State
Implementation Plan (SIP) which concerns South Coast Air Quality
Management District Rule 701. The intended effect of proposing approval
of this rule is to update the episode criteria and to modify the
boundary between two Source Receptor Area 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 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 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comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public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.
