Clean Air Act Proposed Full Approval of Operating Permit Program; Bay Area Air Quality Management District, California

EPA is proposing to approve the operating permit program of the Bay Area Air Quality Management District ("Bay Area" or "District"). The Bay Area operating permit program was submitted in response to the directive in the 1990 Clean Air Act (CAA) Amendments that permitting authorities develop, and submit to EPA, programs for issuing operating permits to all major stationary sources and to certain other sources within the permitting authorities' jurisdictions. EPA granted interim approval to the Bay Area operating permit program on June 23, 1995 but listed certain deficiencies in the program preventing full approval. Bay Area has revised its program to correct the deficiencies of the interim approval and this action proposes full approval of those revisions. The District has also made other revisions to its program since interim approval was granted and EPA is also proposing to approve most of those revisions in this action.
