[CA 247-0347b; FRL-7220-7]


Revisions to the California State Implementation Plan, Monterey 
Bay Unified Air Pollution Control District and South Coast Air Quality 
Management District

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve revisions to the Monterey Bay 
Unified Air Pollution Control District (MBUAPCD) and South Coast Air 
Quality Management District (SCAQMD) portion of the California State 
Implementation Plan (SIP). These revisions concern volatile organic 
compound (VOC) emissions from solvent cleaning operations and dry 
cleaners using solvent other than perchloroethylene. We are proposing 
to approve local rules to regulate these emission sources under the 
Clean Air Act as amended in 1990 (CAA or the Act).

DATES: Any comments on this proposal must arrive by August 16, 2002.

ADDRESSES: Mail comments to Andy Steckel, Rulemaking Office Chief (AIR-
4), U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region IX, 75 Hawthorne 
Street, San Francisco, CA 94105-3901.
    You can inspect copies of the submitted SIP 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 SIP 
revisions at the following locations:

California Air Resources Board, Stationary Source Division, Rule 
Evaluation Section, 1001 ``I'' Street, Sacramento, CA 95814.

Ct., Monterey, CA 93940-6536

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Cynthia G. Allen, Rulemaking Office 
(Air-4), U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region IX, (415) 947-
4120.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This proposal addresses the following local 
rules: MBUAPCD 416 and SCAQMD 1102. In the Rules and Regulations 
section of this Federal Register, we are approving these local rules in 
a direct final action without prior proposal because we believe these 
SIP revisions

[[Page 46949]]

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. Please note 
that if we receive adverse comment on an amendment, paragraph, or 
section of this rule and if that provision may be severed from the 
remainder of the rule, we may adopt as final those provisions of the 
rule that are not the subject of an adverse comment.
    We do not plan to open a second comment period, so anyone 
interested in commenting should do so at this time. If we do receive 
adverse comments, no further activity is planned. For further 
information, please see the direct final action.

    Dated: May 9, 2002.
Alexis Strauss,
Acting Regional Administrator, Region IX.
