Revisions to the California State Implementation Plan, Sacramento 
Metropolitan Air Quality Management District and South Coast Air 
Quality Management District

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve revisions to the Sacramento 
Metropolitan Air Quality Management District (SMAQMD) and South Coast 
Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) portions of the California 
State Implementation Plan (SIP). These revisions concern volatile 
organic compound (VOC) emissions from vanishing oils, rust inhibitors, 
plastic coatings, rubber coatings, glass coatings, and aerospace 
operations. We are proposing to approve these local rules to

[[Page 40763]]

regulate these emission sources under the Clean Air Act as amended in 
1990 (CAA or the Act).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This proposal addresses the following local 
rules: SCAQMD 1144, SCAQMD 1145, and SMAQMD 456. 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. Please note that if we receive adverse comment 
on an amendment, paragraph, or section of this rule and if that 
provision may be severed from the remainder of the rule, we 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.

    Dated: June 18, 2010.

Regional Administrator, Region IX.
