I. What action is the EPA proposing?
A. History of NY-NJ-CT Nonattainment Area The Environmental Protection Agency EPA is proposing to approve the ozone attainment demonstration portions of the comprehensive State Implementation Plan SIP revisions submitted by New Jersey and New York to meet Clean Air Act requirements for attaining the 1997 84 parts per billion ppb 8-hour ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standards NAAQS. New Jersey submitted its SIP revision to the EPA on January 2, 2018 1 and New York submitted its SIP revision to the EPA on November 13, 2017.2 New Jersey and New York previously submitted attainment demonstrations for the 1997
84 ppb 8-hour ozone standard which were approved by the EPA. 78 FR 9596
February 11, 2013. On June 18, 2012, the EPA issued a Clean Data Determination CDD for the 1997 84
ppb 8-hour ozone standard for the NYNJ-CT area based on the attainment demonstrations submitted by the two States. 77 FR 36163 March 26, 2012.
However, on May 4, 2016, EPA
rescinded the CDD since EPA
determined that areas within the NY-NJCT area exceeded the 1997 84 ppb standard based on 20102012
monitoring data. 81 FR 26697 May 4, 2016. EPA simultaneously issued a SIP
Call for the affected states within the nonattainment area to address the 1997
84 ppb 8-hour ozone standard. The SIP
revisions submitted by New Jersey and New York address the attainment demonstration requirements of the May 4, 2016 SIP Call. The EPAs review of this material indicates that ambient air quality monitors within the NY-NJ-CT
area are attaining the 1997 ozone NAAQS.
II. What is the background for this proposed rulemaking?
In 1997, the EPA revised the healthbased NAAQS for ozone, setting it at 84
ppb parts per billion averaged over an 8-hour time frame. The EPA set the 8hour ozone standard based on scientific 1 Submittal letter dated December 22, 2017 and received by the EPA January 2, 2018.
