Download as PDF 13746 Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 62 / Friday, March 30, 2018 / Notices 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. Dated: March 13, 2018. Panagiotis E. Tsirigotis, Director, Office of Air Quality Planning and Standards.
