Revisions to the California and Arizona State Implementation 
Plans, Antelope Valley Air Pollution Control District and Maricopa 
County Environmental Services Department

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve revisions to the Antelope Valley 
Air Pollution Control District (AVAPCD) and Maricopa County 
Environmental Services Department (MCESD) portions of the respective 
California and Arizona State Implementation Plans (SIPs). These 
revisions concern volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions from 
solvent cleaning operations and automotive windshield washer fluid use. 
We are proposing to approve 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 June 25, 2001.

ADDRESSES: Mail comments to Andy Steckel, Rulemaking Office Chief (AIR-
4), U.S. Environmental Protection

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This proposal addresses the following local 
rules: AVAPCD 1171 and MCESD 344. 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. 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 see the direct final action.

    Dated: April 27, 2001.
Michael Schulz,
Acting Regional Administrator, Region IX.
