ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Part 52

[CA 172-0276b; FRL-7524-8]


Revisions to the California State Implementation Plan, Great 
Basin Unified Air Pollution Control District

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve revisions to the Great Basin 
Unified Air Pollution Control District (GBUAPCD) portion of the 
California State Implementation Plan (SIP). These revisions concern 
permitting of sources that have the potential to emit above major 
source thresholds but do not actually emit pollutants at those levels. 
We are proposing to approve local rules under the Clean Air Act as 
amended in 1990 (CAA or the Act).

DATES: Comments must be received in writing by September 10, 2003.

ADDRESSES: Mail comments to Gerardo Rios, Permits Office Chief (AIR-3), 
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region IX, 75 Hawthorne Street, 
San Francisco, CA 94105; [email protected].
    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:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This proposal addresses local rules GBUAPCD 
Rules 218 and 219. 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. 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: June 12, 2003.
Alexis Strauss,
Acting Regional Administrator, Region IX.
