ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 52
[CA 102-13-7212b; FRL-5398-7]
 
Approval and Promulgation of State Implementation Plans; 
California State Implementation Plan Revision; Sacramento Metropolitan 
Air Quality Management District, San Diego County Air Pollution Control 
District, San Joaquin Valley Unified Air Pollution Control District, 
and 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 the control of oxides of 
nitrogen (NO<INF>x) emissions from boilers, steam generators, and 
process heaters.

    The intended effect of proposing approval of these rules is to 
regulate emissions of NO<INF>x in accordance with the requirements of 
the Clean Air Act, as amended in 1990 (CAA or the Act). In the Final 
Rules Section of this Federal Register, the EPA is approving the 
state's SIP revisions as a direct final rule without prior proposal 
because the Agency views these as noncontroversial revision amendments 
and anticipates no adverse comments. A detailed rationale for this 
approval is set forth in the direct 

[[Page 4947]]

final rule. If no adverse comments are received in response to this 
proposed rule, no further activity is contemplated in relation to these 
rules. If EPA receives adverse comments, the direct final rule will be 
withdrawn and all public comments received will be addressed in a 
subsequent final rule based on this proposed rule. The EPA will not 
institute a second comment period on this document. Any parties 
interested in commenting on this action should do so at this time.

DATES: Comments on this proposed rule must be received in writing by 
March 11, 1996.
