Revisions to the California State Implementation Plan, San 
Joaquin Valley Unified Air Pollution Control District

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve a revision to the San Joaquin 
Valley Unified Air Pollution Control District (SJVUAPCD) portion of the 
California State Implementation Plan (SIP). This revision concerns 
oxides of nitrogen (NOX) emissions from residential water 
heaters. We are proposing to approve a local rule 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 March 18, 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 94105-3901 or e-mail to 
[email protected], or submit comments at http://www.regulations.gov.
    You can inspect copies of the submitted SIP revision, EPA's 
technical support document (TSD), and public comments at our Region IX 
office during normal business hours by appointment. You may also see 
copies of the submitted SIP revision by appointment at the following 
locations:

Evaluation Section, 1001 ``I'' Street, Sacramento, CA 95814.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This proposal addresses SJVUAPCD Rule 4902. 
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

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

receive adverse comments, no further activity is planned. For further
