ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Part 52

[EPA-R09-OAR-2006-0272; FRL-8159-8]


Revisions to the Arizona State Implementation Plan, Arizona 
Department of Environmental Quality, Pima County Department of 
Environmental Quality, and Pinal County Air Quality Control District

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA is approving revisions to the Arizona Department of 
Environmental Quality (ADEQ), Pima County Department of Environmental 
Quality (PCDEQ), and Pinal County Air Quality Control District (PCAQCD) 
portions of the Arizona State Implementation Plan (SIP). These 
revisions concern particulate matter (PM-10) emissions from open 
burning. We are proposing to approve local rules that help 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 June 15, 2006.

ADDRESSES: Submit comments, identified by docket number EPA-R09-OAR-
2006-0272, by one of the following methods:
     Federal eRulemaking Portal: http://www.regulations.gov. 
Follow the online instructions.
     E-mail: [email protected].
     Mail or deliver: Andrew Steckel (Air-4), U.S. 
Environmental Protection Agency Region IX, 75 Hawthorne Street, San 
Francisco, CA 94105.
    Instructions: All comments will be included in the public docket 
without change and may be made available online at http://www.regulations.gov, including any personal information provided, 
unless the comment includes Confidential Business Information (CBI) or 
other information whose disclosure is restricted by statute. 
Information that you consider CBI or otherwise protected should be 
clearly identified as such and should not be submitted through http://www.regulations.gov or e-mail. http://www.regulations.gov is an 
``anonymous access'' system, and EPA will not know your identity or 
contact information unless you provide it in the body of your comment. 
If you send e-mail directly to EPA, your e-mail address will be 
automatically captured and included as part of the public comment. If 
EPA cannot read your comment due to technical difficulties and cannot 
contact you for clarification, EPA may not be able to consider your 
comment.
    Docket: The index to the docket for this action is available 
electronically at http://www.regulations.gov and in hard copy at EPA 
Region IX, 75 Hawthorne Street, San Francisco, California. While all 
documents in the docket are listed in the index, some information may 
be publicly available only at the hard copy location (e.g., copyrighted 
material), and some may not be publicly available in either location 
(e.g., CBI). To inspect the hard copy materials, please schedule an 
appointment during normal business hours with the contact listed in the 
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Al Petersen, EPA Region IX, (415) 947-

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This proposal addresses the following local 
rules: ADEQ Rule R18-2-602, ADEQ Rules R18-2-1501 through R18-2-1513, 
PCDEQ Rule 17.12.480, and PCAQCD Rules 3-8-700 and 3-8-710. 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. Please note that if EPA 
receives adverse comment on an amendment, paragraph, or section of this 
rule and if that provision may be severed from the remainder of the 
rule, EPA may adopt as final those provisions of the rule that are not 
the subject of an adverse comment.
    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: March 22, 2006.
Wayne Nastri,
Regional Administrator, Region IX.
