EPA is notifying the public
that EPA has found that the 2008 and

the State of New Hampshire must use
these motor vehicle emissions budgets
for future conformity determinations for

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Throughout this document, whenever
‘‘we,’’ ‘‘us’’ or ‘‘our’’ is used, we mean
EPA.
Today’s notice is simply an
announcement of a finding that we have
already made. EPA New England sent a
letter to the New Hampshire Department
of Environmental Services on April 25,
2012, stating that the 2008 and 2022
MOVES2010 motor vehicle emissions
budgets (MVEBs) in the March 2, 2012
SIP are adequate for transportation
conformity purposes. This submittal
will also be announced on EPA’s
conformity Web site: https://
www.epa.gov/otaq/stateresources/
transconf/adequacy.htm, (once there,
click on ‘‘What SIP submissions has
EPA already found adequate or
inadequate?’’). The adequate 2008 and
2022 MVEBs are provided in the
following table:
ADEQUATE MOTOR VEHICLE EMISSIONS BUDGETS
VOC (tons per
summer day)
Year 2008 MVEBs for the Boston-Manchester-Portsmouth (Southeast), New Hampshire 8-Hour Ozone
Area. .................................................................................................................................................................
Year 2022 MVEBs for the Boston-Manchester-Portsmouth (Southeast), New Hampshire 8-Hour Ozone
Area. .................................................................................................................................................................
Transportation conformity is required
by section 176(c) of the Clean Air Act.
EPA’s conformity rule requires that
transportation plans, programs, and
projects conform to state air quality
implementation plans and establishes
the criteria and procedures for
determining whether or not they do.
Conformity to a SIP means that
transportation activities will not
produce new air quality violations,
worsen existing violations, or delay
timely attainment of the national
ambient air quality standards.
The criteria by which we determine
whether a SIP’s motor vehicle emissions
budgets are adequate for conformity
purposes are outlined in 40 CFR
93.118(e)(4). We have described our
process for determining the adequacy of
submitted SIP budgets in our July 1,
2004, preamble starting at 69 FR 40038,
and we used the information in these
resources while making our adequacy
determination. Please note that an
adequacy review is separate from EPA’s
completeness review, and it also should
not be used to prejudge EPA’s ultimate
approval of the SIP. Even if we find a
budget adequate, the SIP could later be
disapproved.
