ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 52
[CA 071-0005b; FRL-5464-7]
Approval and Promulgation of State Implementation Plans;
California State Implementation Plan Revision, El Dorado County Air
Pollution Control District, Placer County Air Pollution Control
District, and Ventura County Air Pollution Control District
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve revisions to the California State
Implementation Plan (SIP) which concern the control of volatile organic
compound (VOC) emissions from adhesives, architectural coatings, and
wood products coatings.
The intended effect of proposing approval of these rules is to
regulate emissions of VOCs in accordance with
[[Page 37429]]
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adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all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
August 19, 1996.
ADDRESSES: Written comments on this action should be addressed to:
