SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to

(SCAQMD or ``the District'') portion of the California State 
Implementation Plan (SIP). This revision concerns a rule used to issue 
permits for stationary sources, including review and permitting of 
major sources and major modifications under part D of title I of the 
Clean Air Act (CAA or ``the Act''). Specifically, the revision pertains 
to SCAQMD Rule 1325 ``Federal PM2.5 New Source Review 
Program.''

DATES: Any comments on this proposal must arrive by October 21, 2019.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Throughout this document, ``we,'' ``us'' and 
``our'' refer to the EPA. This proposal addresses the following local 
rule: SCAQMD Rule 1325 ``Federal PM2.5 New Source Review 
Program.'' In the Rules and Regulations section of this Federal 
Register, we are approving this local rule in a direct final action 
without prior proposal because we believe this SIP revision is not 
controversial. If we receive one or more adverse comments, however, we 
will publish a timely withdrawal of the direct final rule and address 
the comment(s) in subsequent action based on this proposed rule.
    We do not plan to open a second comment 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.

    Authority:  42 U.S.C. 7401 et seq.

    Dated: July 16, 2019.

Acting Regional Administrator, Region IX.
