ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 52
[EPA-R09-OAR-2006-0876; FRL-8258-9]
Revisions to the California State Implementation Plan, Imperial
County Air Pollution Control 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 Imperial County
Air Pollution Control District and South Coast Air Quality Management
District portion of the California State Implementation Plan (SIP).
These revisions concern volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions from
architectural coatings and organic liquid storage tanks. 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 February 5, 2007.
ADDRESSES: Submit comments, identified by docket number [EPA-R09-OAR-
2006-0876], by one of the following methods:

the on-line instructions.

3. Mail or deliver: Andrew Steckel (Air-4), U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency Region IX, 75 Hawthorne Street, San Francisco, CA

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.

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 contact you for clarification, EPA may not be
able to consider your 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

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Francisco D[oacute][ntilde]ez, EPA
Region IX, (415) 972-3956, [email protected].
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This proposal addresses the following local
rules: ICAPCD 424 and SCAQMD 463. 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: November 7, 2006.
Wayne Nastri,
Regional Administrator, Region IX.
