ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 52
[CA 122-1-6982b; FRL-5198-6]
Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans; California
State Implementation Plan Revision, Santa Barbara County Nonattainment
Area, Transportation Control Measure Replacement
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve revisions to the California State
Implementation Plan (SIP) which concern a transportation control
measure (TCM) to be implemented in the Santa Barbara County ozone
nonattainment area.
The intended effect of proposing approval of this SIP revision is
to control emissions of ozone precursors 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
amendment 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adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all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
May 31, 1995.
ADDRESSES: Written comments on this action should be addressed to:
Deborah Schechter, Mobile Source Section (A-2-1), Air and Toxics
Division, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region 9, 75 Hawthorne
Street, San Francisco, CA 94105.
Copies of the SIP revision and EPA's evaluation of the SIP are
available for public inspection at EPA's Region 9 office during normal
business hours. Copies of the submitted SIP revision are also available
for inspection at the following locations:
California Air Resources Board, 2020 ``L'' Street, Sacramento, CA
92123.
Santa Barbara County Air Pollution Control District, 26 Castillian
Drive B-23, Goleta, CA 93117.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Deborah Schechter, Mobile Source
Section, A-2-1, Air and Toxics Division, U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency, Region 9, 75 Hawthorne Street, San Francisco, CA 94105,
Telephone: (415) 744-1227).
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This document concerns a revision to the
California SIP to implement TCM-5, Improve Commuter Public Transit
Service, in the Santa Barbara County ozone nonattainment area and to
delete a TCM from the 1982 California ozone SIP for Santa Barbara
County. Because Santa Barbara County is already implementing portions
of TCM-5 and the funding and schedules for the remainder of the TCM
have been programmed into the Federal Transportation Improvement
Program for Santa Barbara County, and because the State submitted a
fully approvable SIP revision, the EPA has decided to take direct final
action approving the submittal in to the California SIP. For further
information, please see the information provided in the direct final
action which is located in the Rules Section of this Federal Register.
Authority: 42 U.S.C. 7401-7671q.
Dated: April 19, 1995.
Jeff Zelikson,
Acting Regional Administrator.
