What it does

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is approving a State Implementation Plan (SIP) revision submitted by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) on August 15, 2023. The revision updates reporting requirements; adds, updates, and renames forms for several permit applications; renumbers and updates the effective dates of various forms to align with programmatic changes; and improves the process for submitting forms across several rules within the Florida SIP. Additionally, the revision removes a rule concerning administrative permit corrections from the SIP. The EPA is approving these changes pursuant to the Clean Air Act (CAA or Act).
