SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve 

revisions to the Antelope Valley Air 

Quality Management District 

(AVAQMD) and Mojave Desert Air 

Quality Management District 

(MDAQMD) portion of the California

revisions concern recordkeeping for 

rules governing volatile organic 

compound (VOC) emissions from 

coatings, solvents and adhesives and 

rules governing VOC emissions from 

graphic arts and paper, film, foil and 

fabric coatings. We are proposing to 

approve two local rules to regulate these 

emission sources under the Clean Air 

Act as amended in 1990 (CAA or the 

Act). 

DATES: Any comments on this proposal 

must arrive by April 2, 2012.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This 

proposal addresses the following local 

rules: AVAQMD Rule 109, 

Recordkeeping for Volatile Organic 

Compound Emissions and MDAQMD 

Rule 1117, Graphic Arts and Paper, 

Film, Foil and Fabric Coatings. In the 

Rules and Regulations section of this 

Federal Register, we are approving 

these local rules in a direct final action 

without prior proposal because we 

believe these SIP revisions are not 

controversial. If we receive adverse 

comments, however, we will publish a 

timely withdrawal of the direct final 

rule and address the comments in 

subsequent action based on this 

proposed rule. Please note that if we 

receive adverse comment on an 

amendment, paragraph, or section of 

this rule and if that provision may be 

severed from the remainder of the rule, 

we may adopt as final those provisions 

of the rule that are not the subject of an 

adverse comment. 

We do not plan to open a second 

comment period, so anyone interested 

in commenting should do so at this 

time. If we do not receive adverse 

comments, no further activity is 

planned. For further information, please
