    Type:Proposed Rule
    Citation:86 FR 11482

    The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to approve a revision to the air pollution control plan for California's San Joaquin Valley Unified Air Pollution Control District. This revision targets the reduction of harmful emissions of oxides of nitrogen and particulate matter from new development and transportation projects. The EPA is seeking public comments on this proposal until March 29, 2021, and if approved, it will become a part of the federally enforceable clean air plan. Despite some concerns about enforceability, the revised rule is seen as an improvement over previous regulations.
