Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 82 / Friday, April 27, 2012 / Notices 25165 

Plan. EPA Region 10 sent a letter to the 

Alaska Department of Environmental 

Conservation on April 2, 2012, 

subsequent to the close of the comment 

period stating EPA found the Eagle 

River PM10 Limited Maintenance Plan to 

be adequate for use in transportation 

conformity. 

Because limited maintenance plans 

do not contain budgets, as provided in 

40 CFR 93.109(l), the adequacy review 

period for these maintenance plans 

serves to allow the public to comment 

on whether limited maintenance is 

appropriate for these areas. As a result 

of this adequacy finding, the 

Municipality of Anchorage, Alaska 

Department of Transportation & Public 

Facilities, and the U.S. Department of 

Transportation are no longer required to 

conduct a regional emissions analysis 

for conformity. However, other 

conformity requirements still remain 

such as consultation (40 CFR 93.112), 

transportation control measures (40 CFR 

93.113), and project level analysis (40 

CFR 93.116). 

Transportation conformity is required 

by section 176(c) of the Clean Air Act. 

EPA’s conformity rule requires 

transportation plans, programs, and 

projects to conform to SIPs and 

establishes the criteria and procedures 

for determining whether or not they do. 

Conformity to a SIP means that 

transportation activities will not 

produce new air quality violations, 

worsen existing violations, or delay 

timely attainment of the national 

ambient air quality standards. 

The minimum criteria by which we 

determine whether a SIP is adequate for 

conformity purposes are specified at 40 

CFR 93.118(e)(4). EPA’s analysis of how 

the state’s submission satisfies these 

criteria is found in the Technical 

Support Document. EPA’s adequacy 

review is separate from EPA’s SIP 

completeness review and it also should 

not be used to prejudge EPA’s ultimate 

approval of the SIP. Even if we find the 

SIP adequate for conformity purposes, 

the SIP could later be disapproved.
