The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to update a rule related to the management of air quality in the Feather River Air Quality Management District in California. This proposed rule aims to regulate emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from surface preparation and clean-up operations, which contribute to air pollution and health issues like smog. The rule revision is meant to enhance the existing measures under the Clean Air Act by reducing VOC limits and adjusting requirements on labeling and recordkeeping. The public is invited to comment on this proposal until February 18, 2021, before the EPA takes final action.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has finalized a rule approving a revision to the Feather River Air Quality Management District (FRAQMD) segment of California's State Implementation Plan (SIP). This revision involves replacing historical air pollution control rules for Sutter and Yuba Counties with updated FRAQMD rules under the Clean Air Act. The action essentially updates the SIP with FRAQMD's rules, aiming to make the rules clearer and more effective without altering their substance. This rule will be effective on April 18, 2025, and ensures a coherent regulatory framework for controlling air pollutants in the district.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has approved a revision to the Feather River Air Quality Management District's rule, which is part of California's plan to manage air quality. This rule addresses fees that must be imposed under the Clean Air Act if an area fails to meet air quality standards for ozone pollution. During a period for public comments, the EPA received input both supporting and criticizing the proposed revisions, particularly regarding legal implications and fee collection procedures. Despite some concerns, the EPA concluded that the rule meets necessary standards and will now incorporate it into the State Implementation Plan, thereby relieving the need for federal oversight in this area.
