ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 52

[CA-095-0006b; FRL-5455-1]


Approval and Promulgation of State Implementation Plans; 
California State Implementation Plan Revision, Placer County Air 
Pollution Control District, El Dorado County Air Pollution Control 
District, Ventura County Air Pollution Control District, Yolo-Solano 
Air Quality Management District, and Mojave Desert Air Quality 
Management District

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve revisions to the California State 
Implementation Plan (SIP) which concern the control of volatile organic 
compound (VOC) emissions from organic solvent degreasing, surface 
preparation and cleanup, motor vehicles and mobile equipment coating 
operations, wood coating operations, and graphic arts.
    The intended effect of proposing approval of these rules is to 
regulate emissions of VOCs in accordance with the requirements of the 
Clean Air Act, as amended in 1990 (CAA or the Act). In the Final Rules 
Section of this Federal Register, the 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 adverse comments. A detailed rationale for this approval 
is set forth in the direct final rule. If no adverse comments are 
received in response to this proposed rule, no further activity is 
contemplated

[[Page 19005]]

in relation to this rule. If EPA receives adverse comments, the direct 
final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be 
addressed in a subsequent final rule based on this proposed rule. The 
EPA will not institute a second comment period on this document. Any 
parties interested in commenting on this action should do so at this 
time.

DATES: Comments on this proposed rule must be received in writing by 
May 30, 1996.
