Title: Advancing Clean Aircraft Engines and Reforming Particulate Matter Test Procedures Under CAA Section 231 
Abstract:

This rulemaking follows on the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) agreement on the international particulate matter (PM) emission standards for commercial aircraft engines in February 2019. Domestically the EPA anticipates adopting PM standards that would be at least as stringent as ICAO's standards. The rulemaking includes retiring the existing smoke number standard for certain classes of aircraft engines and updating the measurement procedures for PM emissions.
