Title: Response to Section 126 Petition From North Carolina | |
Abstract: EPA is reconsidering its decision to deny the petition submitted by the State of North Carolina to EPA pursuant to section 126 of the Clean Air Act (CAA). North Carolina submitted a petition on March 18, 2004 alleging that upwind major sources of PM and ozone precursors were contributing significantly to North Carolina's ability to attain or maintain the PM and ozone NAAQS. In 2006, EPA denied North Carolina's petition in conjunction with issuing the CAIR federal implementation plan rule. As a result of a remand of the CAIR, the legal basis for denying the PM part of North Carolina's petition no longer exists. On March 5, 2009 the D.C. Circuit of Appeals granted our motion for voluntary remand of our decision to deny North Carolina's petition. | |
