40 CFR Part 52

[CA 271-0374b; FRL-7427-7]


Revisions to the California State Implementation Plan, Santa 
Barbara County Air Pollution Control District and Yolo-Solano Air 
Quality Control District

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve revisions to the Santa Barbara 
County Air Pollution Control District (SBCAPCD) and the Yolo-Solano Air 
Quality Management District (YSAQMD) portions of the California State 
Implementation Plan (SIP). These revisions concern the emission of 
particulate matter (PM-10) from open fires and prescribed burning and 
the emission of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from the transfer of 
gasoline at dispensing facilities. We are proposing to approve local 
rules that 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 February 24, 2003.

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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This proposal addresses the approval of 
local SBCAPCD Rule 401 and YSAQMD Rule 2.22. In the Rules section of 
this Federal Register, we are approving these local rules 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: December 4, 2002.
Alexis Strauss,
Acting Regional Administrator, Region IX.
