ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Part 52

[CA 289-0418b; FRL-7601-1]


Revisions to the California State Implementation Plan, Monterey 
Bay Unified Air Pollution Control 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) portion of the 
California State Implementation Plan (SIP). The revisions concern the 
emission of particulate matter (PM-10) from open outdoor burning. 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 11, 2004.

ADDRESSES: Send comments to Andy Steckel, Rulemaking Office Chief (AIR-
4), U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region IX, 75 Hawthorne 
Street, San Francisco, CA 94105, or e-mail to [email protected], 
or submit comments at http://www.regulations.gov.
    You can inspect a copy of the submitted SIP revisions and EPA's 
technical support document (TSD) at our Region IX office during normal 
business hours. You may also see a copy of the submitted SIP revisions 
and TSD at the following locations: Air and Radiation Docket and 
Information Center, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, (Mail Code 
6102T), Room B-102, 1301 Constitution Avenue, NW, Washington, DC 20460, 
California Air Resources Board, Stationary Source Division, Rule 
Evaluation Section, 1001 ``I'' Street, Sacramento, CA 95814, Monterey 
Bay Unified Air Pollution Control District, 24580 Silver Cloud Court, 
Monterey, CA 93940.
    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 Web site and may not contain the same version of the rule that

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Al Petersen, Rulemaking Office (AIR-
4), U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region IX, (415) 947-4118, 
[email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This proposal addresses the approval of 
local MBUAPCD Rule 438 and recision of MBUAPCD Rules 407, 409, 410, 
411, and 422 as SIP revisions. In the Rules section of this Federal 
Register, we are approving this SIP revision 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 2, 2003.
Wayne Nastri,
Regional Administrator, Region IX.
