Air Plan Approval; Connecticut; Source Monitoring, Record Keeping and Reporting
Document Number: 2024-04133
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2024-02-29
Agency: Environmental Protection Agency
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to approve a State Implementation Plan (SIP) revision submitted by the State of Connecticut addressing source monitoring in Connecticut. The principal proposed revision is replacement of Regulations of Connecticut State Agencies (RCSA) section 22a-174-4 (source monitoring, record keeping and reporting), which is currently in the Connecticut SIP, with a new regulation section 22a-174-4a, also called ``source monitoring, record keeping and reporting.'' The source monitoring SIP revision provides monitoring, recordkeeping and reporting requirements to ensure that certain sources comply with applicable emissions limitations. This action is being taken under the Clean Air Act.
Request From States for Removal of Gasoline Volatility Waiver
Document Number: 2024-04023
Type: Rule
Date: 2024-02-29
Agency: Environmental Protection Agency
Pursuant to provisions specified by the Clean Air Act (CAA), the Governors of Illinois, Iowa, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, Ohio, South Dakota, and Wisconsin submitted petitions requesting that EPA remove the 1-pound per square inch (psi) Reid vapor pressure (RVP) waiver for summer gasoline-ethanol blended fuels containing 10 percent ethanol (E10). EPA is acting on those petitions by removing the 1-psi waiver in those States effective April 28, 2025. This action also finalizes regulatory amendments to implement the removal of the 1-psi waiver for E10 in those States, as well as a regulatory process by which a State may request to reinstate the 1-psi waiver. Finally, consistent with a decision issued by the United States Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit on July 2, 2021, this action removes regulations that extended the 1-psi waiver to gasoline-ethanol blends between 10 and 15 percent ethanol (E15).
