Summary

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to approve revisions to the State Implementation Plan (SIP) submitted on July 14, 2014, by the State of Nebraska. This proposed action will amend the SIP to include revisions to title 129 of the Nebraska Administrative Code, chapter 20 "Particulate Emissions; Limitations and Standards". The revisions make clear that the emission rates in the rule apply to applicable sources except when a more stringent Federal rule or limit in a construction permit exists. Other minor administrative revisions are also being made. Approval of these revisions will not impact air quality, ensures consistency between the State and Federally approved rules, and ensures Federal enforceability of the State's rules.

The agency’s own summary, as published.
