respect to the 50% of those funds that 

would remain if the partial distribution 

is granted. In Phase I of a cable royalty 

distribution, royalties are distributed to 

certain categories of broadcast 

programming that have been 

retransmitted by cable systems. The 

categories have traditionally been 

movies and syndicated television series, 

sports programming, commercial and 

noncommercial broadcaster-owned 

programming, religious programming, 

music and Canadian programming. In 

Phase II of a cable royalty distribution, 

royalties are distributed to claimants 

within each of the Phase I categories. 

Any party submitting comments on the 

existence of a Phase II controversy must 

identify the category or categories in 

which there is a dispute, and the extent 

of the controversy or controversies. 

The Board must be advised of the 

existence and extent of all Phase I and 

Phase II controversies by the end of the 

comment period. It will not consider 

any controversies that come to its 

attention after the close of that period.

Revisions to the California State 

Implementation Plan, San Joaquin 

Valley Unified Air Pollution Control 

District 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Proposed rule. 

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve 

revisions to the San Joaquin Valley 

Unified Air Pollution Control District 

(SJVUAPCD) portion of the California 

State Implementation Plan (SIP). These 

revisions concern volatile organic 

compound (VOC) emissions from 

facilities storing and processing organic 

liquids such as crude oil and petroleum 

by-products. 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 October 13, 2005. 

ADDRESSES: Send comments to Andy 

Steckel, Rulemaking Office Chief (AIR–

Agency, Region IX, 75 Hawthorne

or e-mail to steckel.andrew@epa.gov, or 

submit comments at http:// 

www.regulations.gov. 

You can inspect copies of the 

submitted SIP revisions, EPA’s technical 

support document (TSD), and public 

comments at our Region IX office during 

normal business hours by appointment.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This 

proposal addresses SJVUAPCD Rule 

4623—Storage of Organic Liquids. In the 

Rules and Regulations section of this 

Federal Register, we are approving this 

local rule in a direct final action without 

prior proposal because we believe these 

SIP revisions are not controversial. 

However, if we receive adverse 

comments, 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.

Implementation Plans; State of Iowa 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Proposed rule. 

SUMMARY: EPA proposes to approve the 

State Implementation Plan (SIP) 

revision submitted by the state of Iowa 

for the purpose of establishing 

guidelines to identify stationary sources 

of air pollution potentially subject to 

Best Available Retrofit Technology 

(BART) emission control requirements. 

Owners and operators of stationary 

sources meeting the eligibility criteria 

will be required to submit source 

identification and emission unit 

description information to the state by 

September 1, 2005. BART-eligibility 

information is to be submitted on Iowa 

Department of Natural Resources (IDNR) 

form 542–8125 that lists facility 

information and emission unit 

identification and description. Annual 

emission totals in tons-per-year 

(potential) for PM10, NOX, SO2 and 

VOCs are also required. 

DATES: Comments on this proposed 

action must be received in writing by 

October 13, 2005. 

ADDRESSES: Comments may be mailed to 

Heather Hamilton, Environmental 

Protection Agency, Air Planning and 

Development Branch, 901 North 5th

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the 

final rules section of the Federal 

Register, EPA is approving the state’s 

SIP revision as a direct final rule 

without prior proposal because the 

Agency views this as a noncontroversial 

revision amendment and anticipates no 

relevant adverse comments to this 

action. A detailed rationale for the 

approval is set forth in the direct final 

rule. If no relevant adverse comments 

are received in response to this action, 

no further activity is contemplated in 

relation to this action. If EPA receives 

relevant adverse comments, the direct 

Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 176 / Tuesday, September 13, 2005 / Proposed Rules 53975 

final rule will be withdrawn and all 

public comments received will be 

addressed in a subsequent final rule 

based on this proposed action. EPA will 

not institute a second comment period 

on this action. Any parties interested in 

commenting on this action should do so 

at this time. Please note that if EPA 

receives adverse comment on part of 

this rule and if that part can be severed 

from the remainder of the rule, EPA may 

adopt as final those parts of the rule that 

are not the subject of an adverse 

comment. For additional information, 

see the direct final rule which is located 

in the rules section of this Federal 

Register.

I. The State’s Submittal 

A. What Regulations Did the State 

Submit? 

The NDEP submitted a large revision 

to the applicable SIP on February 16, 

2005. On August 18, 2005, the revision 

became complete by operation of law 

pursuant to 40 CFR part 51 Appendix V. 

The primary purpose of this revision 

is to clarify and harmonize State and 

federally enforceable requirements. 

Because this revision incorporates so 

many changes from the 1970s and 1980s 

vintage SIP regulations, EPA has 

decided to review and act on the 

submittal in a series of separate actions. 

This Proposed rule is proposing to 

approve a few of the provisions 

contained in the February 2005 

submittal. The remaining portions of the 

submittal will be acted on in future 

Federal Register actions. 

Table 1 lists the provisions of the 

Nevada Administrative Code (NAC) 

addressed by this proposal with the 

dates that they were adopted and 

submitted by the Nevada Department of 

Conservation and Natural Resources, 

Division of Environmental Protection 

(NDEP). Some of these provisions were 

renumbered after their initial adoption.
