[Federal Register: July 25, 1996 (Volume 61, Number 144)] [Proposed Rules] [Page 38682-38683] From the Federal Register Online via GPO Access [wais.access.gpo.gov]
ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY 40 CFR Part 52 [CA 057-0009b; FRL-5527-7] Approval and Promulgation of State Implementation Plans; California State Implementation Plan Revision, Kern County Air Pollution Control District, Placer County Air Pollution Control District, Ventura County Air Pollution Control District, and San Joaquin Unified 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 volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions from metal parts and products coating, semiconductor manufacturing, petroleum refineries and chemical plants, polyester resin material operations and decontamination of soil. The intended effect of proposing approval of these rules is to regulate emissions of VOCs 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 revision as a direct final rule without prior proposal because the Agency views this as a noncontroversial revision amendment and anticipates no adverse comments. A detailed rationale for this approval is set forth in the direct final rule. If no adverse comments are received in response to this proposed rule, no further activity is contemplated in relation to this rule. If EPA receives adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be addressed in a subsequent final rule based on this proposed rule.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 August 26, 1996. ADDRESSES: Written comments on this action should be addressed to: Daniel A. Meer, Rulemaking Section (A-5-3), Air and Toxics Division, U.S. [[Page 38683]] Environmental Protection Agency, Region 9, 75 Hawthorne Street, San Francisco, CA 94105-3901.
