[CA 153-1-7165b; FRL-5278-8]

Approval and Promulgation of State Implementation Plans;

California State Implementation Plan Revision; El Dorado County Air

Pollution District

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve revisions to the California State

Implementation Plan (SIP) which concern the control of volatile organic

compound (VOC) emissions from lumber processing and timber

manufacturing.

The intended effect of proposing approval of this rule is to

regulate emissions of VOCs in accordance with the requirements of the

Clean Air Act, as amended in 1990 (CAA or the Act). In the Final Rules

Section of this Federal Register, the EPA is approving the state's SIP

revision as a direct final rule without prior proposal because the

Agency views this as a noncontroversial revision amendment and

anticipates no adverse comments. A detailed rationale for this approval

is set forth in the direct final rule. If no adverse comments are

received in response to this proposed rule, no further activity is

contemplated in relation to this rule. If EPA receives adverse

comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public

comments received will be addressed in a subsequent final rule based on

this proposed rule. The EPA will not institute a second comment period

on this document. Any parties interested in commenting on this action

should do so at this time.

DATES: Comments on this proposed rule must be received in writing by

October 12, 1995.

ADDRESSES: Written comments on this action should be addressed to:

Daniel A. Meer, Rulemaking Section (A-5-3), Air and Toxics Division,

U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region 9, 75 Hawthorne Street,
