## Abstract

EPA is finalizing the update of the Outer Continental Shelf ("OCS") Air Regulations proposed in the Federal Register on April 20, 2009. Requirements applying to OCS sources located within 25 miles of states' seaward boundaries must be updated periodically to remain consistent with the requirements of the corresponding onshore area ("COA"), as mandated by section 328(a)(1) of the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 ("the Act"). The portion of the OCS air regulations that is being updated pertains to the requirements for OCS sources for which the Santa Barbara County Air Pollution Control District (Santa Barbara County APCD) is the designated COA. The intended effect of approving the requirements contained in the "Santa Barbara County Air Pollution Control District Requirements Applicable to OCS Sources" (June 2009) is to regulate emissions from OCS sources in accordance with the requirements onshore.
