ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 52
[CA 071-0379b; FRL-7456-5]
Revisions to the California State Implementation Plan, Imperial
County Air Pollution Control District, Mendocino County Air Quality
Management District, and Monterey Unified Air Pollution Control
District
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve revisions to the Imperial County
Air Pollution Control District (ICAPCD), Mendocino County Air Quality
Management District (MCAQMD), and Monterey Bay Unified Air Pollution
Control District (MBUAPCD) portion of the California State
Implementation Plan (SIP). These revisions concern administrative
changes for clarity and consistency. We are proposing to approve local
rules and a rule rescission to regulate emission sources under the
Clean Air Act as amended in 1990 (CAA or the Act).
DATES: Any comments on this proposal must arrive by April 21, 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.

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,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This proposal addresses the following local
rules: ICAPCD 115, MCAQMD 400(b), and recission of MBUAPCD 209. In the
Rules and Regulations section of this Federal Register, we are
approving these local rules and rule recission 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: January 17, 2003.
Alexis Strauss,
Acting Regional Administrator, Region IX.
