Abstract
EPA is taking final action on revisions to the California State Implementation Plan (SIP) under the Clean Air Act (CAA or Act). EPA is approving four permitting rules submitted for the Eastern Kern Air Pollution Control District (EKAPCD), Imperial County Air Pollution Control District (ICAPCD), Placer County Air Pollution Control District (PCAPCD), and Yolo-Solano Air Quality Management District (YSAQMD) portions of the California SIP. The State of California is required under part C of title I of the Act to adopt and implement a SIP- approved Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) permit program. We are revising the SIP to incorporate EKAPCD Rule 210.4--Prevention of Significant Deterioration, ICAPCD Rule 904--Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) Permit Program, PCAPCD Rule 518--Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) Permit Program, and YSAQMD Rule 3.24-- Prevention of Significant Deterioration. The approval of these rules will establish a PSD permit program in each District for pre- construction review of certain new and modified major stationary sources in attainment or unclassifiable areas.
