ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 52
[CA-271-0412b; FRL-7551-9]
Revisions to the California State Implementation Plan, Monterey
Bay Unified and San Joaquin Valley Unified Air Pollution Control
District
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve revisions to the San Joaquin
Valley Unified Air Pollution Control District (SJVUAPCD) and the
Monterey Bay Unified Air Pollution Control District (MBUAPCD) portions
of the California State Implementation Plan (SIP). These revisions
concern volatile organic compounds (VOC) emissions from organic
solvents, animal reduction, leather processing, and industries coating
glass products. We are proposing to rescind and approve local rules
that regulate these emission sources under the Clean Air Act as amended
in 1990 (CAA or the Act).
DATES: Any comments on this proposal must arrive by October 16, 2003.
ADDRESSES: Mail comments to Andy Steckel, Rulemaking Office Chief (AIR-
4), U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region IX, 75 Hawthorne
Street, San Francisco, CA 94105-3901 or email to
steckel.andrew@epa.gov. You can inspect copies of the submitted SIP revisions and EPA's
technical support documents (TSDs) at our Region IX office during
normal business hours. You may also see copies of the submitted SIP
revisions at the following locations: California Air Resources Board,
Stationary Source Division, Rule Evaluation Section, 1001 ``I'' Street,
Sacramento, CA 95814. Monterey Bay Unified Air Pollution Control
District, 24580 Silver Cloud Ct., Monterey, CA 93940-6536. San Joaquin
Valley Unified Air Pollution Control District, 1990 E. Gettysburg,
Fresno, CA 93726.
A copy of the rules may also be available via the Internet at
http://www.arb.ca.gov/drdb/drdbltxt.htm. Please be advised that this is
not an EPA Web site and may not contain the same version of the rules
that were submitted to EPA.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Cynthia G. Allen, EPA Region IX, (415)
947-4120.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This proposal addresses the following local
rules: MBUAPCD Rules 414 and 430 and SJVUAPCD Rules 4610 and 4661. In
the Rules and Regulations section of this Federal Register, we are
approving these local rules and rule rescissions in a direct final
action without prior proposal because we believe these SIP revisions
are not controversial. If we receive adverse comments, however, we will
publish a timely withdrawal of the direct final rule and address the
comments in subsequent action based on this proposed rule. Please note
that if we receive adverse comment on an amendment, paragraph, or
section of this rule and if that provision may be severed from the
remainder of the rule, we may adopt as final those provisions of the
rule that are not the subject of an adverse comment.
We do not plan to open a second comment period, so anyone
interested in commenting should do so at this time. If we do not
receive adverse comments, no further activity is planned. For further
information, please see the direct final action.
Dated: August 5, 2003.
Debbie Jordan,
Acting Regional Administrator, Region IX.
