Abstract
EPA is taking direct final action on a revision to the California State Implementation Plan (SIP). The revision concerns Rule 1115 from the Mojave Desert Air Quality Management District (MDAQMD). This approval action will incorporate Rule 1115 into the federally approved SIP. The intended effect of approving this rule 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). The revised rule controls VOC emissions from metal parts and products coating operations. Thus, EPA is finalizing the approval of this revision 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.
