Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans; California State Implementation Plan Revision, San Diego County Air Pollution Control District, South Coast Air Quality Management District, and Ventura County Air Pollution Control District

EPA is finalizing the approval of revisions to the California State Implementation Plan (SIP) proposed in the Federal Register on March 28, 1995 and April 19, 1995. The revisions concern rules from the following districts: San Diego County Air Pollution Control District (SDCAPCD); South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD); and Ventura County Air Pollution Control District (VCAPCD). This approval action will incorporate these rules into the federally approved SIP. The intended effect of approving these rules is to regulate emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in accordance with the requirements of the Clean Air Act, as amended in 1990 (CAA or the Act). This final action serves as a final determination that the deficiencies in the rules that started sanction clocks have been corrected and that any sanctions or Federal Implementation Plan (FIP) obligations triggered by those deficiencies are permanently stopped. The rules control VOC emissions from fixed and floating roof tanks at bulk plants and terminals; bakery ovens; and the coating of metal parts and products. Thus, EPA is finalizing the approval of these rules 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.
