Adequacy Status of the Metropolitan 

Washington DC Area (DC–MD–VA) 

Area 8-Hour Ozone Non-Attainment 

Area’s Reasonable Further Progress 

Plan Vehicle Emission Budgets for 

Transportation Conformity Purposes 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice of adequacy. 

SUMMARY: In this notice, EPA is 

notifying the public that we have found 

the Motor Vehicle Emissions Budgets 

(MVEBs) in the 2008 Reasonable Further 

Progress (RFP) Plan, submitted on June 

4, 2007, by the Maryland Department of 

the Environment (MDE) and on June 12, 

2007 by the Virginia Department of 

Environmental Quality (VADEQ) and 

the District of Columbia Department of 

the Environment (DCDOE) are adequate 

for transportation conformity purposes. 

As a result of EPA’s finding, the 

Metropolitan Washington, DC area must 

use the MVEBs from the 2008 RFP Plan 

for future conformity determinations for 

the 8-hour ozone standard. 

DATES: These MVEBs are effective 

September 21, 2009. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Martin Kotsch, U.S. EPA, Region III, 

1650 Arch Street, Philadelphia, PA 

19103 at (215) 814–3335 or by e-mail at: 

kotsch.martin@EPA.gov. The finding is 

available at EPA’s conformity Web site: 

http://www.epa.gov/otaq/ 

stateresources/transconf/currsips.htm. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Throughout this document ‘‘we,’’ ‘‘us,’’ 

or ‘‘our’’ refer to EPA. The word 

‘‘budgets’’ refers to the motor vehicle 

emission budgets for volatile organic 

compounds (VOCs) and nitrogen oxides 

(NOx). The word ‘‘SIP’’ in this 

document refers to the RFP Plan for the 

Metropolitan Washington DC 8-hour 

Ozone Nonattainment Area submitted to 

EPA as SIP revisions on June 4 and June 

12, 2007. 

Today’s notice is simply an 

announcement of a finding that EPA has 

already made. EPA sent a letter to MDE, 

VADEQ and DCDOE on July 29, 2009 

stating that the MVEBs in the RFP Plan 

are adequate for transportation 

conformity purposes. As a result of 

EPA’s finding, the State of Maryland, 

the Commonwealth of Virginia and the 

District of Columbia must use the 

MVEBs from the 2008 RFP Plan for 

future conformity determinations for the 

8-hour ozone standard. This finding has 

also been announced on EPA’s 

conformity Web site: http:// 

www.epa.gov/otaq/stateresources/ 

transconf/pastsips.htm. The adequate 

MVEBs are provided in the following 

table:

Washington D.C. ...................................................................................................................................................... 70.8 159.8 

Transportation conformity is required 

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

as amended in 1990. EPA’s conformity 

rule requires that transportation plans, 

programs and projects conform to state 

air quality implementation plans and 

establishes the criteria and procedure 

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 criteria by which we determine 

whether a SIP’s motor vehicle emission 

Budgets are adequate for conformity 

purposes are outlined in 40 CFR 

93.118(e)(4). Please note that an 

adequacy review is separate from EPA’s 

completeness review, and it also should 

not be used to prejudge EPA’s ultimate 

approval of the SIP. Even if we find a 

budget adequate, the SIP could later be 

disapproved. We have described our 

process for determining the adequacy of 

submitted SIP budgets in 40 CFR 

93.118(f), and have followed this rule in 

making our adequacy determination.
