Clean Air Act Promulgation of Extension of Attainment Date for 
the San Diego, California Serious Ozone Nonattainment Area

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to extend the attainment date for the San 
Diego serious ozone nonattainment area from November 15, 1999 to 
November 15, 2000. This extension is based in part on monitored air 
quality readings for the 1-hour national ambient air quality standard 
(NAAQS) for ozone during 1999. In the final rules section of this 
Federal Register, we are approving the State's request as a ``direct 
final'' rule without prior proposal because we view this action as 
noncontroversial and anticipate no adverse comments. A detailed 
rationale for the approval is set forth in the direct final rule.
    If no adverse comments are received in response to that direct 
final rule, no further activity is contemplated in relation to this 
proposed rule. If we receive substantive adverse comments which have 
not already been responded to, the direct final rule will be withdrawn 
and all public comments received will be addressed in a subsequent 
final rule based on the proposed rule. We will not institute a

second comment period on this action. Any parties interested in 
commenting on this action should do so at this time.

DATES: Comments must be received on or before November 13, 2000.
