40 CFR Part 52

[CA 242-0297b; FRL-7075-9]


Revisions to the California State Implementation Plan, El Dorado 
County Air Pollution Control District and Imperial County Air Pollution 
Control District

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve revisions to the El Dorado County 
Air Pollution Control District (EDCAPCD) and Imperial County Air 
Pollution Control District (ICAPCD) portions of the California State 
Implementation Plan (SIP). These revisions concern Oxides of Nitrogen 
(NOX) emissions from industrial, institutional, and 
commercial boilers, steam generators, and process heaters as well as 
administrative matters. We are proposing to approve local rules and 
proposing to approve the recision of local rules that regulate emission 
sources under the Clean Air Act as amended in 1990 (CAA or the Act).

DATES: Any comments on this proposal must arrive by November 9, 2001.

ADDRESSES: Mail comments to Andy Steckel, Rulemaking Office Chief (AIR-
4), U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region IX, 75 Hawthorne 
Street, San Francisco, CA 94105.
    You can inspect copies of the submitted rule revisions and EPA's 
technical support documents (TSDs) at our Region IX office during 
normal business hours. You may also see copies of the submitted rule 
revisions at the following locations:

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Al Petersen, Rulemaking Office (AIR-
4), U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region IX; (415) 744-1135.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This proposal addresses the approval of the 
local EDCAPCD Rules 101 and 229, the recision of local EDCAPCD Rules 
101 and 102, and the approval of local ICAPCD Rules 100 and 113. In the 
Rules and Regulations section of this Federal Register, we are 
approving and rescinding these local rules in a direct final action 
without prior proposal because we believe these SIP revisions are not 
controversial. If we receive adverse comments, however, we will publish 
a timely withdrawal of the direct final rule and address the comments 
in subsequent action based on this proposed rule. We do not plan to 
open a second comment period, so anyone interested in commenting

[[Page 51620]]

should do so at this time. If we do not receive adverse comments, no 
further activity is planned. For further information, please see the 
direct final action.

    Dated: September 12, 2001.
Mike Shulz,
Acting Regional Administrator, Region IX.
