As stated above, MOBILE6.2 was the 18.43 50.14 applicable mobile source emissions model that was available when the original SIP was submitted.

The new safety margins, are listed below in Table 6. IV. Proposed Action EPA is proposing to approve Tennessee’s October 12, 2012, SIP revision concerning the Knox County 1hour ozone maintenance plan and increasing the safety margin allocated to MVEB to account for changes in the emissions model and VMT projection model. This action, if finalized, would result in higher NOX and VOC MVEB for transportation conformity purposes for Knox County, and would still be consistent with attainment for the 1hour ozone NAAQS. EPA is proposing this action because it is consistent with the CAA and the transportation conformity requirements at 40 CFR 93. V. Statutory and Executive order Reviews Under the CAA, the Administrator is required to approve a SIP submission that complies with the provisions of the Act and applicable federal regulations. 42 U.S.C. 7410(k); 40 CFR 52.02(a).
