Clean Air Act Proposed Interim Approval of Operating Permits

Program; San Diego Air Pollution Control District, California

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: The EPA proposes interim approval of the title V operating

permits program submitted by the San Diego Air Pollution Control

District (San Diego or District) for the purpose of complying with

federal requirements for an approvable state program to issue operating

permits to all major stationary sources and to certain other sources.

Today's action also proposes approval of San Diego's mechanism for

receiving delegation of section 112 standards as promulgated.

In the final rules section of this Federal Register, EPA is

promulgating interim approval of San Diego's title V program as a

direct final rule without prior proposal because EPA views this

submittal as noncontroversial 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

rulemaking. 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will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be addressed in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

January 8, 1996.

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

Celia Bloomfield, Operating Permits Section (A-5-2), Air and Toxics

Division, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region IX, 75 Hawthorne

Street, San Francisco, CA 94105.

Copies of the District's submittal, EPA's Technical Support

Document, and other supporting information used in developing the

proposed approval are available for public inspection at EPA's Region

IX office during normal business hours.

final rule of the same title which is located in the Rules section of

this Federal Register.
