Revisions to the California State Implementation Plan, Monterey 
Bay United Air Pollution Control District

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve revisions to the Monterey Bay 
United Air Pollution Control District (MBUAPCD) portion of the 
California State Implementation Plan (SIP). These revisions concern 
oxides of nitrogen (NOX) and sulfur compounds emitted by 
various sources. 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).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This proposal addresses the following local 
rule: MBUAPCD 404. 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 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: September 13, 2005.
Laura Yoshii,
Acting Regional Administrator, Region IX.
