Title: Transportation Conformity Rule Restructuring Amendments 
Abstract: The transportation conformity rule ensures that transportation planning is consistent with a State's plan for achieving air quality standards. These amendments will update the rule to apply existing conformity requirements to future NAAQS such that the need for future rulemakings merely to address conformity for a new or revised NAAQS will be minimized.
