| 2015-23144 | Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans; Washington: Additional Regulations for the Benton Clean Air Agency Jurisdiction | Proposed Rule | The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to approve revisions to the Washington State Implementation Plan (SIP) that were submitted by the Department of Ecology (Ecology) in coordination with Benton Clean Air Agency (BCAA) on August 25, 2015. In the fall of 2014 and spring of 2015, the EPA approved numerous revisions to Ecology's general air quality regulations. However, our approval of the updated Ecology regulations applied only to geographic areas where Ecology, and not a local air authority, has jurisdiction, and statewide to source categories over which Ecology has sole jurisdiction. Under the Washington Clean Air Act local clean air agencies, such as BCAA, have the option of adopting equally stringent or more stringent standards or requirements in lieu of Ecology's general air quality regulations, if they so choose. Therefore, the EPA stated that we would evaluate the general air quality regulations as they apply to local jurisdictions in separate, future actions. If finalized, this proposed action would allow BCAA to rely primarily on Ecology's general air quality regulations for sources within BCAA's jurisdiction, including implementation of the minor new source review and nonattainment new source review permitting programs. This action also proposes approval of a small set of BCAA regulatory provisions that replace or supplement parts of Ecology's general air quality regulations. | 2015-09-15 | 2015 | 9 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2015/09/15/2015-23144/approval-and-promulgation-of-implementation-plans-washington-additional-regulations-for-the-benton | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2015-09-15/pdf/2015-23144.pdf | Environmental Protection Agency | 145 | The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to approve revisions to the Washington State Implementation Plan (SIP) that were submitted by the Department of Ecology (Ecology) in coordination with Benton Clean Air Agency (BCAA) on August 25,... |
