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 organic solvent degreasing, surface

preparation and cleanup, motor vehicles and mobile equipment coating

operations, wood coating operations, and graphic arts.

The intended effect of proposing approval of these rules 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

[[Page 19005]]

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final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be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

May 30, 1996.

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