applicability process requires a
determination of whether a proposed
project will, by itself, result in a
significant emissions increase. As
explained in the memorandum, it is the
EPA’s interpretation that its current
NSR regulations provide that emissions
decreases as well as increases are to be
considered at Step 1 of the NSR
applicability process. This
interpretation is grounded in the
principle that the plain language of the
Clean Air Act indicates that Congress
intended to apply NSR to changes that
increase actual emissions and the
language in the corresponding NSR
regulations is consistent with that
intent.
Prior EPA guidance had indicated that
the relevant provisions of the NSR
regulations preclude the consideration
of emissions decreases at Step 1. For the
reasons discussed in the memorandum,
the EPA has revised its interpretation of
the regulatory language and will no
longer apply any such interpretation
reflected in prior statements on this
issue.

Standards.
