    The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to approve parts of a plan from Texas that ensures areas not meeting federal ozone standards are properly managing new pollution sources and emissions reporting. These areas include Dallas-Fort Worth, Houston-Galveston-Brazoria, and Bexar County. The plan submission meets the requirements under the Clean Air Act for managing new sources of pollution and ensuring detailed emissions reports are provided annually. Public comments on this proposal are invited until March 15, 2021.

  • 2024-30513 — Federal Implementation Plan for Nonattainment New Source Review Program; Mojave Desert Air Quality Management District, California
    💰
    Type:Rule
    Citation:89 FR 106332
    Reading Time:about 2 hours

    The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has finalized a Federal Implementation Plan (FIP) under the Clean Air Act for the Mojave Desert Air Quality Management District in California. This new rule includes stricter guidelines for New Source Review (NSR) in nonattainment areas where air quality standards are not met. The FIP aims to regulate the construction of new major sources and modifications of existing sources, addressing deficiencies in the existing Mojave Desert program. An important aspect of this rule is the EPA's disapproval of a Mojave Desert District rule regarding emissions offsets, following a court decision questioning the EPA's previous approval of that rule.

    Simple Explanation

    The EPA made new rules to make the air cleaner in the Mojave Desert because the air there isn't healthy enough, and they decided one of the old rules wasn't good, so they changed it.
