Title: ●Regulation Changes to Allow for Electronic Submittal of State Implementation Plans (SIPs) 
Abstract: This direct final with parallel proposal would amend certain sections of the Clean Air Act that pertain to State Implementation Plan submissions to allow for electronic submissions. The rule supports the Agency's commitment to institute electronic systems in place of existing paper based reporting to meet the Agency's regulatory requirements. The rule is also in furtherance of the Agency's Priority for E-Reporting. Furthermore, it supports the Digital Government Strategy issued by the White House in 2012 that calls for the EPA to continue to evolve its reporting systems to take advantage of new technology and improve transparency of our stakeholders. This rule is a step forward in the Agency's larger E-Enterprise for the Environment Initiative.
