Limited Maintenance Plan 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Proposed rule. 

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve 

a limited maintenance plan update 

submitted by the State of North 

Carolina, through the North Carolina 

Department of Environment and Natural 

Resources, on August 2, 2012. The 

limited maintenance plan update is for 

the Charlotte, Raleigh/Durham and 

Winston-Salem carbon monoxide (CO) 

maintenance areas. Specifically, the 

State submitted a limited maintenance 

plan update for CO, showing continued 

attainment of the 8-hour CO National 

Ambient Air Quality Standard for the 

Charlotte, Raleigh/Durham and 

Winston-Salem Areas. The 8-hour CO 

NAAQS is 9 parts per million. EPA is 

proposing to approve the limited 

maintenance plan update because the 

State has demonstrated that it is 

consistent with the Clean Air Act and 

EPA’s policy for limited maintenance 

plans.

[EPA–R09–OAR–2013–0094; FRL–9783–2] 

Revision of Air Quality Implementation 

Plan; California; Placer County Air 

Pollution Control District and Feather 

River Air Quality Management District; 

Stationary Source Permits 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Proposed rule. 

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing a limited 

approval and limited disapproval of 

permitting rules submitted by California 

as a revision to the Placer County Air 

Pollution Control District (PCAPCD) and 

Feather River Air Quality Management 

District (FRAQMD) portion of the 

California State Implementation Plan 

(SIP). These rules were adopted by the 

PCAPCD and FRAQMD to regulate the 

construction and modification of 

stationary sources of air pollution 

within each District. EPA is proposing 

to approve these SIP revisions based on 

the Agency’s conclusion that the rules 

are consistent with applicable Clean Air 

Act (CAA) requirements, policies and 

guidance. Final approval of these rules 

would make the rules federally 

enforceable and correct program 

deficiencies identified in a previous 

EPA rulemaking (76 FR 44809, July 27, 

2011). 

DATES: Any comments must arrive by 

March 25, 2013.
