Air Plan Approval; New York; Interstate Transport Requirements for the 2010 SO2 NAAQS

What it does

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA or the Agency) is approving a State Implementation Plan (SIP) submitted by the State of New York for purpose of demonstrating that the State satisfies the interstate transport requirements, also known as the "good neighbor" provision of the Clean Air Act (CAA), for the 2010 1-hour sulfur dioxide (SO<INF>2</INF>) primary National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS). Under the good neighbor provision, each State's implementation plan must contain adequate provisions prohibiting the interstate transport of air pollution in amounts that will either contribute significantly to nonattainment, or interfere with maintenance, of the NAAQS in any other State. This action is being taken in accordance with the requirements of the Clean Air Act.
