AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve a revision to the Monterey Bay 
Unified Air Pollution Control District (MBUAPCD) portion of the 
California State Implementation Plan (SIP). This revision concerns the 
emission of volatile organic compounds (VOC) from steam drive crude oil 
production wells.

DATE: Any comments on this proposal must arrive by September 23, 2002.

ADDRESSES: Mail comments to Andy Steckel, Rulemaking Office Chief (AIR-
4), U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region IX, 75 Hawthorne

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This proposal addresses the approval of the 
local MBUAPCD Rule 427. In the Rules and Regulations section of this 
Federal Register, we are approving this local rule in a direct final 
action without prior proposal because we believe this SIP revision is 
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 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: July 16, 2002.
Keith Takata,
Acting Regional Administrator, Region IX.
