8 Hour Ozone SIP

“The New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection finalized its revision to the State Implementation Plan (SIP) to implement the 8-Hour Ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS). The core of this SIP revision is the State’s demonstration that its two multi-state 8-hour ozone nonattainment areas will attain the 8-hour ozone NAAQS by their mandatory attainment date of June 15, 2010. The remainder of the SIP revision addresses the other mandatory SIP elements for 8-hour ozone (with the exception of a Reasonable Available Control Technology (RACT) analysis, which the Department of proposed on February 2, 2007 and will submit as final to the USEPA separately) and other related issues.”

Both of the proposed and final SIP documents are posted on this webpage.
