Approval and Promulgation of State Implementation Plans;

California State Implementation Plan Revision, San Joaquin Valley

Unified Air Pollution Control District, Santa Barbara County Air

Pollution Control District, South Coast Air Quality Management 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 aerospace assembly and component

manufacturing operations, motor vehicle and mobile equipment coating

operations, crude oil production and separation, and storage of

reactive organic compound liquids (ROC).

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

[[Page 20200]]

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receives adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and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

June 5, 1996.
