ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 52
[EPA-R09-OAR-2006-0714, FRL-8701-5]
Revisions to the California State Implementation Plan, Antelope
Valley Air Quality Management District
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve revisions to the Antelope Valley
Air Quality Management District (AVAQMD) portion of the California
State Implementation Plan (SIP). Under authority of the Clean Air Act
as amended in 1990 (CAA or the Act), we are proposing to approve minor
administrative changes to local rules that address permitting
requirements.
DATES: Any comments on this proposal must arrive by October 2, 2008.
ADDRESSES: Submit comments, identified by docket number EPA-R09-OAR-
2006-0714, by one of the following methods:
Federal eRulemaking Portal: www.regulations.gov. Follow
the on-line instructions.
E-mail: R9airpermits@epa.gov.
Mail or deliver: Gerardo Rios (Air-3), U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency Region IX, 75 Hawthorne Street, San Francisco, CA
94105.
Instructions: All comments will be included in the public docket
without change and may be made available online at www.regulations.gov,
including any personal information provided, unless the comment
includes Confidential Business Information (CBI) or other information
whose disclosure is restricted by statute. Information that you
consider CBI or otherwise protected should be clearly identified as
such and should not be submitted through www.regulations.gov or e-mail.
www.regulations.gov is an ``anonymous access'' system, and EPA will not
know your identity or contact information unless you provide it in the
body of your comment. If you send e-mail directly to EPA, your e-mail
address will be automatically captured and included as part of the
public comment. If EPA cannot read your comment due to technical
difficulties and cannot contact you for clarification, EPA may not be
able to consider your comment.
Docket: The index to the docket for this action is available
electronically at www.regulations.gov and in hard copy at EPA Region
IX, 75 Hawthorne Street, San Francisco, California. While all documents
in the docket are listed in the index, some information may be publicly
available only at the hard copy location (e.g., copyrighted material),
and some may not be publicly available in either location (e.g., CBI).
To inspect the hard copy materials, please schedule an appointment
during normal business hours with the contact listed in the FOR FURTHER
INFORMATION CONTACT section.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Laura Yannanon, Permits Office (AIR-
3), U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region IX, (415) 972-3534,
yannayon.laura@epa.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This proposal addresses the approval of
AVAQMD Rules 101, 102, 106, 108, 109, 208, 210, 212, 218, 220, 221, and
226. In the Rules and Regulations section of this Federal Register, we
are approving these local rules in a direct final action without prior
proposal because we believe this SIP revision is 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 EPA receives adverse comment on an amendment,
paragraph, or section of this rule and if that provision may be severed
from the remainder of the rule, EPA may adopt as final those provisions
of the rule that are not the subject of an adverse comment.
[[Page 51259]]
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: July 11, 2008.
Laura Yoshii,
Acting Regional Administrator, Region IX.
