Revisions to the California State Implementation Plan, Monterey 
Bay Unified Air Pollution Control District and San Joaquin Valley Air 
Pollution Control District

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve revisions to the Monterey Bay 
Unified Air Pollution Control District (MBUAPCD) and San Joaquin Valley 
Air Pollution Control District (SJVAPCD) portions of the California 
State Implementation Plan (SIP). Under authority of the Clean Air Act 
as amended in 1990 (CAA or the Act), we are proposing to approve local 
rules that address circumvention, reduction of animal matter, and 
volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions from gasoline bulk storage 
tanks, gasoline filling stations, petroleum refinery equipment, and 
petroleum solvent dry cleaning.

DATES: Any comments on this proposal must arrive by February 1, 2008.

ADDRESSES: Submit comments, identified by docket number EPA-R09-OAR-
2007-1074, by one of the following methods:

    Instructions: All comments will be included in the public docket 
without change and may be made available online at http://www.regulations.gov
, including any personal information provided, 

unless the comment includes Confidential Business Information (CBI) or 
other information whose disclosure is restricted by statute. 
Information that you consider CBI or otherwise protected should be 
clearly identified as such and should not be submitted through http:// www.regulations.gov or e-mail. http://www.regulations.gov is an 

``anonymous access'' system, and EPA will not know your identity or 
contact information unless you provide it in the body of your comment. 
If you send e-mail directly to EPA, your e-mail address will be 
automatically captured and included as part of the public comment. If 
EPA cannot read your comment due to technical difficulties and cannot

comment.
    Docket: The index to the docket for this action is available 
electronically at http://www.regulations.gov and in hard copy at EPA 

Region IX, 75 Hawthorne Street, San Francisco, California. While all 
documents in the docket are listed in the index, some information may 
be publicly available only at the hard copy location (e.g., copyrighted 
material), and some may not be publicly available in either location 
(e.g., CBI). To inspect the hard copy materials, please schedule an

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This proposal addresses the approval of 
MBUAPCD Rules 415, 418, and 1002 and SJVAPCD Rules 4104, 4402, 4404, 
4453, 4454, 4625, 4641, and 4672. 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 this SIP 
revision is 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 EPA receives adverse comment on an amendment, 
paragraph, or section of this rule and if that provision may be severed 
from the remainder of the rule, EPA 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 see the direct final action.
