ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Part 52

[CA105-0037b; FRL-5842-7]


Approval and Promulgation of State Implementation Plans; 
California State Implementation Plan Revision, San Diego County Air 
Pollution Control District, Yolo-Solano 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 oxides of 
nitrogen (NOX) from stationary gas turbine engines, 
industrial, institutional, and commercial boilers, steam generators, 
and process heaters.
    The intended effect of proposing approval of these rules is to 
regulate emissions of 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 SIP 
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 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adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all 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 
July 17, 1997.

ADDRESSES: Written comments on this action should be addressed to: Amy 
Beckberger, Rulemaking Office (AIR-4), Air Division, U.S. Environmental 
Protection Agency, Region 9, 75 Hawthorne Street, San Francisco, CA 
94105-3901.
