ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Part 52

[CA 83-5-6889b; FRL-5165-6]


Approval and Promulgation of State Implementation Plans; 
California State Implementation Plan Revision, Bay Area Air Quality 
Management 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 organic liquid bulk terminals and bulk 
plants, surface coating of miscellaneous metal parts and products, 
aerospace assembly and component coating operations, flexible and rigid 
disc manufacturing, gasoline bulk terminals, gasoline bulk plants, and 
gasoline delivery vehicles. One of the rules concerns the submittal of 
VOC and oxides of nitrogen (NOX) emissions data to the district.
    The intended effect of proposing approval of these rules is to 
regulate emissions of VOCs and NOx 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comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public 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 
May 3, 1995.

ADDRESSES: Written comments on this action should be addressed to: 
Daniel A. Meer, Rulemaking Section (A-5-3), Air and Toxics Division,
