  • 2024-30654 — Air Plan Approval; Air Plan Disapproval; Delaware; Removal of Excess Emissions Provisions; Final Correction
    Type:Rule
    Citation:89 FR 104433
    Reading Time:about 10 minutes

    The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is correcting an error in its previous disapproval of Delaware's State Implementation Plan (SIP) related to air quality regulations, originally made on October 23, 2023. This correction follows a court decision which partially vacated an older EPA rule, making Delaware's revisions voluntary instead of mandatory. As a result, the EPA will no longer impose certain sanctions and obligations on Delaware. This action only fixes a prior error and does not add any new requirements.

    Simple Explanation

    The EPA realized they made a mistake in saying "no" to some air rules Delaware wanted to change, so now they're fixing it and letting Delaware do things their way without new rules added.
