Title: Reconsideration of the Prevention of Significant Deterioration and Nonattainment New Source Review (NSR): Aggregation 
Abstract: This final reconsideration will address a range of legal and policy issues related to the aggregation rule and complete any revisions of the rule that become necessary as a result of the reconsideration process. EPA developed and issued a final rule that addressed when a source must combine (i.e., "aggregate") nominally separate physical and operational changes for the purpose of determining whether they are a single change and subject to review under the New Source Review (NSR) program. Following promulgation of the NSR aggregation final rule on January 15, 2009, the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) submitted a petition for reconsideration as provided for in the Clean Air Act (CAA). In response to NRDC's petition, EPA has both announced the convening of a reconsideration proceeding and administratively stayed the effective date of the rule to allow time to conduct the reconsideration.
