Summary

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) proposes to approve, and incorporate by reference, specific changes to the Oregon State Implementation Plan as it applies in Lane County, Oregon. The local air agency in Lane County, Lane Regional Air Protection Agency, has revised its rules to align with recent changes to Oregon state regulations. The revisions, submitted on August 29, 2014 and March 27, 2018, are related to the criteria pollutants for which the EPA has established national ambient air quality standards--carbon monoxide, lead, nitrogen dioxide, ozone, particulate matter, and sulfur dioxide. The regulatory changes address federal particulate matter requirements, update the major and minor source pre-construction permitting programs, add state-level air quality designations, update public processes, and tighten emission standards for dust and smoke.
