EPA is finalizing a limited approval and limited disapproval of two permitting rules submitted by California as a revision to the Placer County Air Pollution Control District (PCAPCD) and Feather River Air Quality Management District (FRAQMD) portion of the California State Implementation Plan (SIP).

We are approving local rules that regulate these emission sources under the Clean Air Act as amended in 1990 (CAA). Final approval of these rules makes the rules federally enforceable and corrects program deficiencies identified in a previous EPA rulemaking (76 FR 44809, July 27, 2011). EPA is also making a technical amendment to the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) to reflect this previous rulemaking, which removed an obsolete provision from the California SIP.

HRSA will be issuing a non-competitive program expansion supplement for one State SSDI Grant. Approximately $82,332 in supplemental funding will be made available in the form of a grant to the Department of Health Care Services, Sacramento, California, Grant Number H18MC24474, during the budget period of December 1, 2012, through November 30, 2013. The SSDI Grant program, CFDA No. 93.110, is authorized by Title V, Social Security Act, Section 501(a)(2); as amended (42 U.S.C. 701(a)(2)). The SSDI Grant program was developed to complement the Title V MCH Services Block Grant program by assisting state MCH and Children with Special Health Care Needs (CSHCN) programs in the building of state data capacity and infrastructure that support comprehensive, community- based systems of care for all children and their families. SSDI grants to states are intended to not only advance and strengthen data capacity by directing grant resources towards Title V MCH Block Grant program's Health Systems Capacity Indicator (HSCI) 09A (i.e., the ability of states to assure that the MCH programs and Title V agency have access to policy and program relevant information and data), but also to move states forward in developing improved capacity for reporting standardized and quality data that is timely.
