ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Part 52

[CA273-0381b; FRL-7452-4]

 
Revisions to the California State Implementation Plan, Imperial 
County Air Pollution Control District

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve a revision to the Imperial County 
Air Pollution Control District (ICAPCD) portion of the California State 
Implementation Plan (SIP). This revision concerns particulate matter 
(PM) emissions livestock feed yard operations. We are proposing to 
approve this local rule regulating 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 March 28, 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.
    You can inspect copies of the submitted SIP revision and EPA's 
technical support document (TSD) 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; and,
Imperial County Air Pollution Control District, 150 South 9th Street,

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jerald S. Wamsley, Rulemaking Office 
(Air-4), U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region IX, (415) 947-
4111.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This proposal addresses ICAPCD Rule 420--
Livestock Feedyards. In the Rules and Regulations section of this 
Federal Register, we are approving this local rule in a direct final 
action without prior proposal because we believe this SIP revision is 
not controversial. However, if we receive adverse comments, we will 
publish a timely withdrawal of the direct final rule and address the 
comments in subsequent action based on this proposed rule. 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: February 3, 2003.
Alexis Strauss,
Acting Regional Administrator, Region IX.
