Title: Review of New Sources and Modifications in Indian Country 
Abstract: Consistent with its trust responsibility to Indian Tribes, EPA proposes to develop a permit program that would extend to Indian country some of the same protections that States afford their citizens through minor new source review and non-attainment major new source review programs. The proposed rule would require that stationary air sources located in Indian country obtain a permit prior to construction or undergoing modification, in certain cases. Permits would be required of minor sources that exceed a specified emissions threshold if they propose to construct or make a modification that will increase emissions from the source. Major sources in non-attainment areas would be required to obtain pre-construction permits. The proposed rule would allow existing stationary sources to accept federally enforceable limits in order to be considered as minor sources for the applicability of source requirements.
