Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans; California State Implementation Plan Revision, Placer County Air Pollution Control District, San Diego County Air Pollution Control District, San Joaquin Valley Unified Air Pollution Control 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 December 2, 1993 and February 2, 1995. The revisions concern rules from the following: Placer County Air Pollution Control District (PCAPCD), San Diego County Air Pollution Control District (SDCAPCD), San Joaquin Valley Unified Air Pollution Control District (SJVUAPCD), 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 sanctions clocks have been corrected and that any sanctions or Federal Implementation Plan (FIP) obligations triggered by those deficiencies have been permanently stopped. The rules control VOC emissions from marine vessel coating; graphic arts operations; paper, fabric and film coating; and storage of organic liquids. 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.
