ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 52
[CA 275-0384b; FRL-7471-3]
Revisions to the California State Implementation Plan, Lake
County Air Quality Control District and San Diego County Air Pollution
Control District
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve revisions to the Lake County Air
Quality Management District (LCAQMD) and San Diego County Air Pollution
Control District (SDCAPCD) portions of the California State
Implementation Plan (SIP). The LCAQMD and SDCAPCD revisions concern the
emission of particulate matter (PM-10) from open burning. We are
proposing to approve the local rules that regulate this emission source
under the Clean Air Act as amended in 1990 (CAA or the Act).
DATES: Any comments on this proposal must arrive by May 16, 2003.
ADDRESSES: Mail comments to Andy Steckel, Rulemaking Office Chief (AIR-
4), U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region IX, 75 Hawthorne
Street, San Francisco, CA 94105.

technical support documents (TSDs) at our Region IX office during

revisions and TSDs at the following locations:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This proposal addresses the approval of
local LCAQMD sections 226.5, 232.1, 238.5, 249.3, 250.5, 431.5, 431.7,
432.5, 433, 433.5, 436, and 436.5 and SDAPCD rule 101. This proposal
also addresses the recision of SIP LCAQMD section 442 and SDCAPCD rules
101 through 112. In the rules section of this Federal Register, we are
approving these local rules in a direct final action without prior
proposal because we believe this SIP revision is not controversial. If
we receive adverse comments, however, we will publish a timely
withdrawal of the direct final rule and address the comments in
subsequent action based on this proposed rule. We do not plan to open a
second commend period, so anyone interested in commenting should do so
at this time. If we do not receive adverse comments, no further
activity is planned. For further information, please see the direct
final action.
Dated: March 5, 2003.
Alexis Strauss,
Acting Regional Administrator, Region IX.
