TX024.37 Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans - Texas - Revisions to the Ozone Attainment Plan for the Houston - Galveston (US Environmental Protection Agency Regulation) (EPA) (2018 Edition) The Law Library presents the complete text of the TX024.37 Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans - Texas - Revisions to the Ozone Attainment Plan for the Houston - Galveston (US Environmental Protection Agency Regulation) (EPA) (2018 Edition). Updated as of May 29, 2018 EPA is approving revisions to the Texas State Implementation Plan (SIP) as it applies to the Houston/Galveston/Brazoria (HGB) ozone nonattainment area. These SIP revisions result from more recent information on ozone formation in the HGB area indicating that a combination of controls on nitrogen oxides (NO X) and highly reactive volatile organic compounds (HRVOCs) should be more effective in reducing ozone than the measures in the previously approved 2001 HGB attainment demonstration plan which relied almost exclusively on the control of NO X. Approval of these revisions incorporates these changes into the federally approved SIP.

Updated as of May 29, 2018 In this final rule, the EPA is establishing the air quality thresholds that define the classifications assigned to all nonattainment areas for the 2008 ozone national ambient air quality standards (NAAQS) (the "2008 ozone NAAQS") which were promulgated on March 12, 2008. The EPA is also granting reclassification for selected nonattainment areas that voluntarily reclassified under the 1997 ozone NAAQS. This rule also establishes December 31 of each relevant calendar year as the attainment date for all nonattainment area classification categories. Finally, this rule provides for the revocation of the 1997 ozone NAAQS for transportation conformity purposes to occur 1 year after the effective date of designations for the 2008 ozone NAAQS.

Final Rule to Implement the 1997 8-Hour Ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standard - Classification of Areas That Were Initially Classified (US Environmental Protection Agency Regulation) (EPA) (2018 Edition) The Law Library presents the complete text of the Final Rule to Implement the 1997 8-Hour Ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standard - Classification of Areas That Were Initially Classified (US Environmental Protection Agency Regulation) (EPA) (2018 Edition). Updated as of May 29, 2018 The EPA is revising the rules for implementing the 1997 8-hour ozone national ambient air quality standards (NAAQS) to address certain limited portions of the rules vacated by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. This final rule assigns Clean Air Act (CAA or Act) classifications and associated state planning and control requirements to selected ozone nonattainment areas. This final rule also addresses three vacated provisions of the 1997 8-hour NAAQS-Phase 1 Implementation Rule (April 30, 2004) that provided exemptions from the anti-backsliding requirements relating to nonattainment area New Source Review (NSR), CAA section 185 penalty fees, and contingency measures, as these three requirements applied for the 1-hour standard. This rule also reinstates the 1-hour contingency measures as applicable requirements that must be retained until the area attains the 1997 8-hour ozone standard. Finally, this rule deletes an obsolete provision that stayed the EPA's authority to revoke the 1-hour ozone standard pending the Agency's issuance of a final rule that revises or reinstates its revocation authority and considers and addresses certain other issues. That rule has now been issued.

Designation of Areas for Air Quality Planning Purposes - California - San Joaquin Valley, South Coast Air Basin (US Environmental Protection Agency Regulation) (EPA) (2018 Edition) The Law Library presents the complete text of the Designation of Areas for Air Quality Planning Purposes - California - San Joaquin Valley, South Coast Air Basin (US Environmental Protection Agency Regulation) (EPA) (2018 Edition). Updated as of May 29, 2018 Under the Clean Air Act (CAA or "Act"), EPA is granting requests by the State of California to reclassify the following four areas designated as nonattainment for the 1997 8-hour ozone national ambient air quality standard (NAAQS): The San Joaquin Valley area from "serious" to "extreme," the South Coast Air Basin area from "severe-17" to "extreme," and the Coachella Valley and Sacramento Metro areas from "serious" to "severe-15." In connection with the reclassifications, EPA is setting a deadline of no later than 12 months from the effective date of reclassification for submittal of revisions to the Sacramento Metro area portion of the California State Implementation Plan (SIP) to meet the additional new source review (NSR) requirements for "severe-15" 8-hour ozone nonattainment areas. EPA is deferring the setting of a submittal deadline for certain fee rules under section 185 of the CAA. A number of Indian tribes have Indian country located within the boundaries of the affected areas. The State of California is not approved to administer any CAA programs in Indian country, and the relevant Indian tribes have not applied for eligibility to administer programs under the CAA for their areas. In these circumstances, EPA implements relevant reclassification provisions of the CAA in these Indian country areas and is reclassifying these areas, except Indian country pertaining to the Morongo Band of Mission Indians ("Morongo Tribe") and the Pechanga Band of Luiseño Mission Indians ("Pechanga Tribe"), in keeping with the classifications of nonattainment areas within which they are located. EPA is deferring the reclassification of Indian country pertaining to the Morongo and Pechanga Tribes pending EPA's final decisions on their previously-submitted boundary change requests. In connection with this final action, EPA notified the affected tribal leaders and consulted with interested tribes.

TX187.086 Air Quality State Implementation Plans - Approval and Promulgation - State of Texas - Regional Haze and Interstate Visibility Transport (US Environmental Protection Agency Regulation) (EPA) (2018 Edition) The Law Library presents the complete text of the TX187.086 Air Quality State Implementation Plans - Approval and Promulgation - State of Texas - Regional Haze and Interstate Visibility Transport (US Environmental Protection Agency Regulation) (EPA) (2018 Edition). Updated as of May 29, 2018 Pursuant to the Federal Clean Air Act (CAA or Act), the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is finalizing a partial approval of the 2009 Texas Regional Haze State Implementation Plan (SIP) submission and a Federal Implementation Plan (FIP) for Texas to address certain outstanding requirements. Specifically, the EPA is finalizing determinations regarding best available retrofit technology (BART) for electric generating units (EGUs) in the State of Texas. To address the BART requirement for sulfur dioxide (SO 2), the EPA is finalizing an alternative to BART that consists of an intrastate trading program addressing the SO 2 emissions from certain EGUs. To address the BART requirement for oxides of nitrogen (NO X), we are finalizing our proposed determination that Texas' participation in the Cross-State Air Pollution Rule's (CSAPR) trading program for ozone-season NO X qualifies as an alternative to BART. We are approving Texas' determination that its EGUs are not subject to BART for particulate matter (PM). Finally, we are disapproving portions of several SIP revisions submitted to satisfy the CAA requirement to address interstate visibility transport for six national ambient air quality standards (NAAQS): 1997 8-hour ozone, 1997 fine particulate matter (PM 2.5) (annual and 24-hour), 2006 PM 2.5 (24-hour), 2008 8-hour ozone, 2010 1-hour nitrogen dioxide (NO 2) and 2010 1-hour SO 2. We are finding that the BART alternatives to address SO 2 and NO X BART at Texas' EGUs meet the interstate visibility transport requirements for these NAAQS.

Updated as of May 29, 2018 On December 19, 2006, EPA published, as a proposed rule, a notice of reconsideration for several aspects of the November 29, 2005, Phase 2 of the final rule to implement the 8-hour ozone national ambient air quality standard (NAAQS). These issues relate to nitrogen oxide (NO X) reasonably available control technology (RACT) for electric generating units (EGUs) in Clean Air Interstate Rule (CAIR) states and to certain new source review (NSR) provisions. The notice of reconsideration was published as a result of a petition for reconsideration which had been submitted by the Natural Resources Defense Council. In this action, EPA summarizes and responds to comments received in response to the notice of reconsideration, and EPA announces its final actions taken in response to these comments.

Air Quality State Implementation Plans - Approvals and Promulgations - Texas - Revision of Federal Implementation Plan Requirements (US Environmental Protection Agency Regulation) (EPA) (2018 Edition) The Law Library presents the complete text of the Air Quality State Implementation Plans - Approvals and Promulgations - Texas - Revision of Federal Implementation Plan Requirements (US Environmental Protection Agency Regulation) (EPA) (2018 Edition). Updated as of May 29, 2018 The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is finalizing withdrawal of the federal implementation plan (FIP) provisions that require affected electricity generating units (EGUs) in Texas to participate in Phase 2 of the Cross-State Air Pollution Rule (CSAPR) trading programs for annual emissions of sulfur dioxide (SO 2) and nitrogen oxides (NO X). Withdrawal of the FIP requirements is intended to address a decision of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit (D.C. Circuit) remanding the CSAPR Phase 2 SO 2 budget for Texas to the EPA for reconsideration. With this action, the EPA is also determining that, following withdrawal of the FIP requirements, sources in Texas do not contribute significantly to nonattainment in, or interfere with maintenance by, any other state with regard to the 1997 national ambient air quality standard (NAAQS) for fine particulate matter (PM 2.5). Accordingly, we are also determining that the EPA has no obligation to issue new FIP requirements for Texas sources to address transported PM 2.5 pollution under Clean Air Act (CAA) section 110(a)(2)(D)(i)(I) with regard to that NAAQS. Finally, the EPA is also affirming the continued validity of the Agency's 2012 determination that participation in CSAPR meets the Regional Haze Rule's criteria for an alternative to the application of source-specific best available retrofit technology (BART). The EPA has determined that changes to CSAPR's geographic scope resulting from the actions EPA has taken or expects to take in response to the D.C. Circuit's remand do not affect the continued validity of participation in CSAPR as a BART alternative, because the changes in geographic scope would not have adversely affected the results of the air quality modeling analysis upon which the EPA based the 2012 determination.

Final Approval of the 8-Hour Ozone Redesignation for the Michigan areas of Flint, Grand Rapids, Kalamazoo-Battle Creek, Lansing-East Lansing (US Environmental Protection Agency Regulation) (EPA) (2018 Edition) The Law Library presents the complete text of the Final Approval of the 8-Hour Ozone Redesignation for the Michigan areas of Flint, Grand Rapids, Kalamazoo-Battle Creek, Lansing-East Lansing (US Environmental Protection Agency Regulation) (EPA) (2018 Edition). Updated as of May 29, 2018 EPA is making determinations under the Clean Air Act (CAA) that the nonattainment areas of Flint (Genesee and Lapeer Counties), Grand Rapids (Kent and Ottawa Counties), Kalamazoo-Battle Creek (Calhoun, Kalamazoo, and Van Buren Counties), Lansing-East Lansing (Clinton, Eaton, and Ingham Counties), Muskegon (Muskegon County), Benton Harbor (Berrien County), Benzie County, Cass County, Huron County, and Mason County have attained the 8-hour ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS). For the Grand Rapids, Kalamazoo-Battle Creek, Lansing-East Lansing, Benzie County, Huron County, and Mason County areas, these determinations are based on two overlapping three-year periods of complete, quality-assured ambient air quality monitoring data for the 2002-2004 seasons and the 2003-2005 seasons that demonstrate that the 8-hour ozone NAAQS has been attained in the areas. Quality assured monitoring data for 2006 show that the areas continue to attain the standard. For the Flint, Muskegon, Benton Harbor, and Cass County areas, these determinations are based on three years of complete quality-assured ambient air quality monitoring data for the 2004-2006 seasons that demonstrate that the 8-hour ozone NAAQS has been attained in the areas. In addition, quality-assured data for 2003-2005 also demonstrate that the 8-hour NAAQS was attained during this period.
