Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans; Arizona State Implementation Plan Revision

EPA is taking direct final action on revisions to the Arizona State Implementation Plan (SIP). The revised rule controls emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from the transfer of gasoline into motor vehicle fuel tanks. The revision applies to the Phoenix nonattainment area and this approval action will incorporate the regulation into the Federally approved SIP. The intended effect of approving this rule is to regulate emissions of VOCs in accordance with the requirements of the Clean Air Act, as amended in 1990 (CAA or the Act). In addition, the final action on this rule serves as a final determination that the finding of nonsubmittal for this rule has been corrected and that on the effective date of this action, any Federal Implementation Plan (FIP) clock is stopped. Thus, EPA is finalizing the approval of these revisions into the Arizona SIP under provisions of the CAA regarding EPA action on SIP submittals, SIPs for national primary and secondary ambient air quality standards and plan requirements for nonattainment areas.
