        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The final rule for transportation conformity rule ensures that transportation planning is consistent with a state's plan for achieving air quality standards. These technical amendments would clarify (1) how certain highway and transit projects meet statutory conformity requirements for particulate matter, to respond to a December 2007 court ruling, and (2) how to implement conformity requirements in light of the revocation of the October 17, 2006 revisions to the PM10 and 24-hour PM2.5 standards. This rule was finalized on March 10, 2010.]]></ABSTRACT>
