The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to approve an October 15, 2015 State Implementation Plan (SIP) revision submitted by the State of Rhode Island. This revision addresses the interstate transport requirements of the Clean Air Act (CAA), referred to as the good neighbor provision, with respect to the 2010 primary sulfur dioxide (SO<INF>2</INF>) and 2010 primary nitrogen dioxide (NO<INF>2</INF>) national ambient air quality standards (NAAQS). This action proposes to approve Rhode Island's demonstration that the state is meeting its obligations regarding the transport of SO<INF>2</INF> and NO<INF>2</INF> emissions into other states. This action is being taken under the Clean Air Act.
