Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans; California State Implementation Plan Revision, Kern County Air Pollution Control District

EPA is finalizing the approval of a revision to the California State Implementation Plan (SIP) proposed in the Federal Register on August 10, 1999. This revision concerns Kern County Air Pollution Control District (KCAPCD)--Rule 410.4, Surface Coating of Metal Parts and Products. This approval action will incorporate this rule into the federally approved SIP. The intended effect of approving this rule is to regulate emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) according to the requirements of the Clean Air Act, as amended in 1990 (CAA or the Act). This revised rule controls VOC emissions from the surface coating of miscellaneous metal parts and products. Thus, EPA is finalizing the approval of this revision into the California SIP under provisions of the CAA regarding EPA action on SIP submittals, SIPs for national primary and secondary ambient air quality standards and plan requirements for nonattainment areas.
