40 CFR Part 52

[CA 184-0086b; FRL-6138-1]


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

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve a revision to the California State 
Implementation Plan (SIP) which concerns the control of volatile 
organic compound (VOC) emissions from organic solvents.
    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 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 relevant adverse

[[Page 42784]]

comments are received, no further activity is contemplated in relation 
to this rule. If EPA receives relevant adverse comments, the direct 
final rule will not take effect and all public comments received will 
be addressed in a subsequent final rule based on this proposed rule. 
EPA will not institute a second comment period on this action. Any 
parties interested in commenting should do so at this time.

DATES: Comments must be received in writing by September 10, 1998.

ADDRESSES: Written comments should be addressed to: Andrew Steckel, 
Rulemaking Office (AIR-4), Air Division, U.S. Environmental Protection 
Agency, Region IX, 75 Hawthorne Street, San Francisco, CA 94105-3901.
