Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans; California State Implementation Plan Revision; Interim Final Determination That State Has Corrected the Deficiency

Elsewhere in today's Federal Register EPA has published a notice of proposed rulemaking for full approval of revisions to the California State Implementation Plan. The revisions concern rules from the Placer County Air Pollution Control District (PCAPCD) and the San Diego County Air Pollution Control District (SDCAPCD): PCAPCD Rule 223, Metal Container Coating; PCAPCD Rule 410, Recordkeeping for Volatile Organic Compound Emissions; and SDCAPCD Rule 67.4, Metal Container, Metal Closure, and Metal Coil Coating Operations. The proposed rulemaking provides the public with an opportunity to comment on EPA's action approving PCAPCD Rules 223 and 410, and SDCAPCD Rule 67.4. Based on the proposed full approval, EPA is making an interim final determination by this action that the State has corrected the deficiencies for which sanctions clocks began on June 16, 1993. This action will defer the application of the offset sanctions and defer the application of the highway sanctions. Although the interim final action is effective upon publication, EPA will take comment. If no comments are received on this action or EPA's proposed approval of the State's submittal, EPA will finalize its determination that the State has corrected the deficiencies that started the sanctions clocks by publishing a notice of final rulemaking in the Federal Register. If comments are received on EPA's proposed approval and this interim final action, EPA will publish a final notice taking into consideration any comments received.
