40 CFR Part 52

[CA 265-0363b; FRL-7266-6]

 
Approval and Promulgation of State Implementation Plans; 
California State Implementation Plan Revision, Santa Barbara 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) for the Santa Barbara County Air Pollution 
Control District (SBCAPCD). The revisions consist of negative 
declarations for four volatile organic compound source categories. The 
intended effect of this action is to bring the SBCAPCD portion of the 
California SIP up to date in accordance with the requirements of the 
Clean Air Act, as amended in 1990 (CAA or the Act). EPA is proposing 
the approval of these negative declarations for the California SIP 
under provisions of the CAA regarding EPA action on SIP submittals, 
SIPs for national primary and secondary ambient air quality standards, 
and plan requirements for nonattainment areas. EPA is approving these 
revisions in accordance with the requirements of the CAA.

DATES: Any comments on this proposal must arrive by September 25, 2002.

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

    In the final rules section of this Federal Register, the EPA is 
approving the State's SIP submittal as a direct final rule without 
prior proposal because the Agency views this as a noncontroversial 
revision 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, no further activity is 
contemplated. If EPA

[[Page 54759]]

receives adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and 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. Any parties interested in commenting should do so at 
this time.

    Authority: 42 U.S.C. 7401 et seq.

    Dated: August 6, 2002.

Regional Administrator, , Region IX.
