This SIP revision includes three components. First, this revision certifies New Jersey’s ability and authority to implement, maintain, and enforce the 2015 8-hour 70 ppb ozone NAAQS, addressing the infrastructure requirements of the federal Clean Air Act (CAA) (42 U.S.C. § 7410(a)(1) and (2) (Section 110(a)(1) and (2))). Second, this revision separately addresses interstate transport through the portion of 42 U.S.C. § 7410(a)(2)(D) (Section 110(a)(2)(D)(i)(I) of the CAA) commonly known as the “Good Neighbor” SIP for the 2015 (70 ppb) and 2008 (75 ppb) Ozone NAAQS. Third, this revision includes a negative declaration that the Oil and Natural Gas CTGs do not pertain to New Jersey.
