    The Coast Guard will enforce a safety zone in the Suisun Bay near Concord, California, from December 12 to December 19, 2024, to support explosive handling operations at the Military Ocean Terminal Concord (MOTCO). This safety measure is important to protect people, ships, and the marine environment from potential explosions. The safety zone is open for transitory use, but vessel operators wanting to anchor must get permission from the Captain of the Port San Francisco. Notifications about the enforcement will also be provided through Broadcast Notice to Mariners.

    The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) determined that Evangeline Parish, Louisiana, did not meet the 2010 sulfur dioxide (SO2) air quality standard by the deadline of April 9, 2023, as required by the Clean Air Act. The decision is based on evaluating emissions data, which showed increased pollution levels. Following this ruling, Louisiana is required to revise its State Implementation Plan (SIP) within 12 months to ensure the area meets the air quality standards as quickly as possible, but no later than December 16, 2029. This decision aims to address air quality issues without additional regulatory burdens or economic impacts on smaller entities.

    Simple Explanation

    The EPA says that the air in a place in Louisiana isn't clean enough because there's too much sulfur stuff from a big factory, so Louisiana has to make a new plan to clean it up by 2029.
