ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Part 52

[CA242-0373b; FRL-7395-9]


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

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve revisions to the Imperial County 
Air Pollution Control District's (ICAPCD) portion of the California 
State Implementation Plan (SIP). These revisions concern volatile 
organic compound (VOC) emissions from Soil Decontamination Operations, 
Organic Solvent Degreasing Operations and Organic Solvents. 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 December 5, 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.
Imperial County APCD, 150 South 9th Street, El Centro, CA 92243-2850

    A copy of the rule may also be available via the Internet at http://www.arb.ca.gov/drdb/drdbltxt.htm. Please be advised that this is not 
an EPA website and may not contain the same version of the rule that 
was submitted to EPA.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Terry McCall, EPA Region IX, (415) 
972-3976.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This proposal addresses the following local 
rules: ICAPCD Rules 412, 413 and 417. 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 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 not 
receive adverse comments, no further activity is planned. For further 
information, please see the direct final action.

    Dated: September 30, 2002.
Keith Takata,
Acting Regional Administrator, Region IX.
