[CA 95-9-7273b; FRL-5411-2]


Approval and Promulgation of State Implementation Plans; 
California State Implementation Plan Revision, San Diego County Air 
Pollution Control District

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing a limited approval and limited disapproval of 
revisions to the California State Implementation Plan (SIP) which 
concern the control of volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions from 
kelp processing and bio-polymer manufacturing operations.
    The intended effect of proposing limited approval and limited 
disapproval 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 Final Rules Section of this Federal Register, the EPA 
is finalizing a simultaneous limited approval and limited disapproval 
of the state's SIP 

[[Page 5726]]
revision as a direct final rule without prior proposal because the 
Agency views this as a noncontroversial action and anticipates no 
adverse comments. A detailed rationale for this limited approval and 
limited disapproval 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receives adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and 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 
March 15, 1996.

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