Corrections to the California State Implementation Plan

EPA is finalizing the deletion of various local rules from the California State Implementation Plan (SIP) that were incorporated into the SIP in error. These primarily include rules concerning local fees, enforcement authorities, New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) and National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP). EPA has determined that the continued presence of these rules in the SIP is potentially confusing and thus harmful to affected sources, local agencies and to EPA. The intended effect of this final action is to delete these rules and make the SIP consistent with the Clean Air Act as amended in 1990 (CAA or the Act). This action also reinserts a paragraph into the compilation of federal regulations that was deleted in error in the Federal Register on November 10, 1982 and redesignates another paragraph published in the Federal Register on June 23, 1982.
