Air Quality Implementation Plan; CA; El Dorado County Air Quality Management District; Stationary Source Permits
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to approve a revision to the El Dorado County Air Quality Management District (EDCAQMD) portion of the California State Implementation Plan (SIP). In this action, we are proposing to approve a rule submitted by the EDCAQMD governing the issuance of permits for stationary sources, focusing on the preconstruction review and permitting of major sources and major modifications under part D of title I of the Clean Air Act (CAA or ``the Act''). We are taking comments on this proposal and plan to follow with a final action.
Determination To Defer Sanctions; California; El Dorado County Air Quality Management District
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is making an interim final determination that the State of California has submitted a rule that satisfies the requirements of title I, part D of the Clean Air Act (CAA or ``Act'') permitting program for areas under the jurisdiction of the El Dorado County Air Quality Management District (EDCAQMD or ``District''). This determination is based on a proposed approval, published elsewhere in this Federal Register, of a District rule addressing these requirements. The effect of this interim final determination is to defer the imposition of sanctions that were triggered by a previous EPA action that included a limited disapproval of a District rule intended to address title I, Part D requirements.
Integrated Science Assessment for Lead (Pb) (External Review Draft)
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is announcing a 60- day public comment period for the draft document titled, ``Integrated Science Assessment for Lead (External Review Draft)''. This draft document was prepared by the Center for Public Health and Environmental Assessment (CPHEA) within EPA's Office of Research and Development (ORD) as part of the review of the primary (health-based) and secondary (welfare-based) Lead (Pb) National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS). It represents an update of the 2013 Integrated Science Assessment (ISA) for Lead (Pb) (EPA/600/R-10/075F). The ISA, in conjunction with additional technical and policy assessments, provides the scientific foundation for EPA's decisions on the adequacy of the current NAAQS and the appropriateness of possible alternative standards. EPA is releasing the draft ISA for Pb to seek review by the Clean Air Scientific Advisory Committee (CASAC) and input from the public. The date and location of a public meeting for the CASAC to discuss its review of this document will be specified in a separate Federal Register notice (FRN). The draft ISA is not final and does not represent, and should not be construed to represent, any final Agency policy or views. When revising the document, EPA will consider any public comments submitted during the public comment period specified in this notice.
