        <RULE_TITLE>Interstate Transport Plan Review for the 2015 Ozone NAAQS - Phase 1

</RULE_TITLE>

<body>
<p>The EPA intends to revisit its previous actions finalizing the disapproval or partial disapproval of state implementation plans (SIPs) and finalizing federal implementation plans (FIPs) addressing states&rsquo; interstate transport obligations under the 2015 ozone national ambient air quality standards (NAAQS). Following numerous challenges to EPA&rsquo;s past transport actions for the 2015 ozone NAAQS, multiple federal courts have stayed EPA&rsquo;s actions as to nearly half of states with disapproved 2015 ozone transport SIPs. Consistent with the EPA Administrator&rsquo;s regulatory agenda announcement in March 2025, this action intends to invoke the principles of cooperative federalism while accomplishing EPA&rsquo;s core mission of protecting the environment.</p>
