ACTION: Proposed rule. AGENCY: SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve Ohio’s request to permanently retire 240 oxides of nitrogen (NOX) allowances from the State’s 2005 new source set aside, which would otherwise have been distributed to existing sources that are required participants in the State of Ohio’s NOX budget. Under the Federal NOX Budget Trading Program, each participating state receives a main pool of ‘allowances’, which are credits that permit a source to emit one ton of NOX per allowance. Allowances are apportioned state-wide to electricity generating units and other large NOX sources which are subject to the budget trading program. Each year, a certain number of allowances are set aside from the main pool by the State, specifically for use by any new sources subject to the trading program which may come E:\FR\FM\13SEP1.SGM 13SEP1
