Requirements
Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
AGENCY:
The Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) is proposing approval of
a revision to Wisconsin’s state
implementation plan (SIP), revising
portions of the State’s Prevention of
Significant Deterioration (PSD) and
ambient air quality programs to address
deficiencies identified in EPA’s
previous narrow infrastructure SIP
disapprovals and Finding of Failure to
Submit. This SIP revision request is
consistent with the Federal PSD rules
and addresses the required elements of
the fine particulate matter (PM2.5) PSD
Increments, Significant Impact Levels
(SILs) and Significant Monitoring
Concentration (SMC) Rule. EPA is also
proposing to approve elements of SIP
submissions from Wisconsin regarding
PSD infrastructure requirements of
section 110 of the Clean Air Act (CAA)
for the 1997 PM2.5, 1997 ozone, 2006
PM2.5, 2008 lead, 2008 ozone, 2010
nitrogen dioxide (NO2), 2010 sulfur
dioxide (SO2), and 2012 PM2.5 National
Ambient Air Quality Standards
(NAAQS). The infrastructure
requirements are designed to ensure that
the structural components of each
state’s air quality management program
are adequate to meet the state’s
responsibilities under the CAA.
DATES: Comments must be received on
or before October 31, 2016.
