ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 52
[CA 009-0090b; FRL-6142-4]
Approval and Promulgation of State Implementation Plans;
California State Implementation Plan Revision; 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 rules from the Ventura County
Air Pollution Control District (VCAPCD). The intended effect of this
proposed action is to remove rules from the SIP that are no longer in
effect in VCAPCD, in accordance with the requirements of the Clean Air
Act, as amended in 1990 (CAA or the Act). In the Rules section of this
Federal Register, EPA is approving the State's SIP revision as a direct
final rule without prior proposal because the Agency views this as a
noncontroversial action 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, no further activity is contemplated
in relation to this rule. If EPA receives adverse comments, the direct
final rule will not take effect and all public comments received will
be addressed in a subsequent final rule based on this proposed rule.
EPA will not institute a second comment period on this rule. Any
parties interested in commenting on this action should do so at this
time.
DATES: Comments must be received in writing by September 18, 1998.
ADDRESSES: Written comments should be addressed to: Andrew Steckel,
Rulemaking Office (AIR-4), Air Division, U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency, Region IX, 75 Hawthorne Street, San Francisco, CA 94105-3901.
