40 CFR Part 52

[CA 95-3-6638b; FRL-5160-1]


Approval and Promulgation of State Implementation Plans; 
California State Implementation Plan Revision; San Joaquin Valley 
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) that concern the control of volatile organic 
compound (VOC) emissions from in-situ combustion well vents. The 
intended effect of proposing approval of this rule 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 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be withdrawn and all public comments received will be addressed in a 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 
April 5, 1995.

ADDRESSES: Written comments on this action should be addressed to: 
Daniel A. Meer, Rulemaking Section (A-5-3), Air and Toxics Division, 
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region 9, 75 Hawthorne Street, 
San Francisco, CA 94105-3901.
