I. Introduction 

In this technical support document (TSD), EPA is providing additional documentation 

concerning our evaluation of the submittal provided by the New Mexico Environment 

Department (NMED) to meet the requirements of section 110(a)(2) of the Clean Air Act (CAA 

or Act) for the 2008 national ambient air quality standards (NAAQS or standards) for lead (Pb). 

More detail on these standards, section 110(a)(1) and (2) of the Act, and the submittal we are 

reviewing to determine if the New Mexico SIP satisfies the section 110(a)(2) requirements, is 

provided in subsection A below. Throughout this document, “we,” “us,” and “our” means EPA. 

Section II of this TSD provides additional background material on the NAAQS, State 

Implementation Plans (SIPs), and related issues. 

Section III of this TSD provides a description of each element required under section 

110(a)(2) of the Act, the State’s response, and additional details of our analysis of the State’s 

response that are not included in the Federal Register notice for this proposed action. Copies of 

the State’s submittal are in the docket for this rulemaking. 

Section IV of this TSD includes our recommendation for action on each of the elements 

reviewed herein. 

 Section V of the TSD contains a list of the guidance documents cited herein. Copies of 

the guidance documents referenced are in the docket for this rulemaking.

A. Section 110(a)(1) and (2) 

On October 5, 1978, we published the first NAAQS for lead (43 FR 46246). Both the 

primary and secondary standards were set at 1.5 micrograms per cubic meter (μg/m3). In 2008, 

following a periodic review of the NAAQS for lead, we published a revised, more stringent 

NAAQS of 0.15 μg/m3 for both the primary and secondary standards (73 FR 66964, November 

13, 2008). For more information on these standards, please see the EPA web site on the lead 

NAAQS1 and its history.2 

Under sections 110(a)(1) and (2) of the Act, states are required to submit SIPs that 

provide for the implementation, maintenance, and enforcement (the infrastructure) of a new or 

revised NAAQS within three years following the promulgation of the NAAQS, or within such 

shorter period as EPA may prescribe. Section 110(a)(2) lists the specific infrastructure elements 

that must be incorporated into the SIPs, including for example, requirements for air pollution 

control measures, which are designed to assure attainment and maintenance of the NAAQS. 

Section III of this TSD provides a description of all 14 infrastructure elements that comprise 

section 110(a)(2) of the Act. The schedule for completion of EPA’s periodic review of the Pb 

NAAQS was governed by a judicial order in Missouri Coalition for the Environment v. EPA 

(No. 4:04CV00660 ERW, Sept. 14, 2005), which required EPA to sign for publication a notice 

of final rulemaking concerning our review of the Pb NAAQS no later than October 15, 2008. 

Thus states were required to submit such infrastructure SIPs for the 2008 Lead NAAQS to EPA 

no later than October 15, 2011. 

In 2011 we issued “Guidance on Infrastructure State Implementation Plan (SIP) Elements 

Required Under Sections 110(a)(1) and 110(a)(2) for the 2008 Lead (Pb) National Ambient Air 

Quality Standards (NAAQS),” Memorandum from Stephen D. Page, Director, Air Quality Policy 

Division, Office of Air Quality Planning and Standards (OAQPS).3 This guidance document 

addresses the SIP elements found in 110(a)(2) with the exception of 110(a)(2)(I).4

 Section 

110(a)(2)(I) pertains to the nonattainment planning requirements of part D, Title I of the Act, and 

is also being addressed separately.5 

On September 9, 2011, the Governor of New Mexico submitted a letter certifying that 

NMED has evaluated the New Mexico SIP and found that the SIP satisfies all the requirements 

of section 110(a)(1) and (2) for the 2008 Pb NAAQS. The September 9, 2011, submittal includes 

a table with an explanation of how the current New Mexico SIP meets the requirements of each 

applicable element of section 110(a)(2) for the 2008 Pb NAAQS. This TSD provides additional 

details of New Mexico’s certification and EPA’s evaluation that are not included in the official 

Federal Register notice for this action.

 This guidance document is available at EPA’s 2008 Pb NAAQS implementation website at 

http://www.epa.gov/oaqps001/lead/pdfs/20111014infrastructure.pdf 4

 The guidance addresses a total of 14 infrastructure elements because the 3 components of section 110(a)(2)(J) are 

being counted as 3 separate elements. 

5

 Two elements identified in section 110(a)(2) are not governed by the 3-year submission deadline of section 

110(a)(1) because SIPs incorporating necessary local nonattainment area controls are not due within 3 years after 

promulgation of a new or revised NAAQS, but rather are due at the time the nonattainment area plan requirements 

are due pursuant to section 172. These requirements are: (i) Submissions required by section 110(a)(2)(C) to the 

extent that subsection refers to a permit program as required in part D Title I of the CAA and (ii) submissions 

required by section 110(a)(2)(I) which pertain to the nonattainment planning requirements of part D Title I of the 

CAA. Therefore, this action does not cover these specific SIP elements.

II. Additional Background 

 A. What are the National Ambient Air Quality Standards? 

 Section 109 of the Act requires EPA to establish NAAQS for pollutants that “may 

reasonably be anticipated to endanger public health and welfare,” and to develop a primary and 

secondary standard for each NAAQS. The primary standard is designed to protect human health 

with an adequate margin of safety, and the secondary standard is designed to protect public 

welfare and the environment. EPA has set NAAQS for six common air pollutants, referred to as 

criteria pollutants. These pollutants are: carbon monoxide, lead, nitrogen dioxide, ozone, 

particulate matter, and sulfur dioxide. These standards present state and local governments with 

the minimum air quality levels they must meet to comply with the Act. Additionally, these 

standards provide information to residents of the United States about the quality of the air in their 

communities. 

 

 B. What is a SIP? 

 A State Implementation Plan, or SIP, is a set of state statutes, air pollution regulations, 

control strategies, other means or techniques, and technical analyses developed by the state, to 

ensure that the state meets the NAAQS. The SIP is required by section 110 and other provisions 

of the Act. These SIPs can be extensive, containing state regulations or other enforceable 

documents and supporting information such as emissions inventories, monitoring networks, and 

modeling demonstrations. Each state must submit these regulations and control strategies to EPA 

for approval and incorporation into the federally enforceable SIP. Each federally approved SIP 

protects air quality primarily by addressing air pollution at its point of origin. 

C. Additional Information 

As indicated in the Federal Register notice for this action, this proposed rulemaking will 

not cover four substantive issues that are not integral to acting on a state’s infrastructure SIP 

submission: (i) existing provisions related to excess emissions during periods of start-up, 

shutdown, or malfunction at sources, that may be contrary to the CAA and EPA’s policies 

addressing such excess emissions (“SSM”); (ii) existing provisions related to “director's 

variance” or “director's discretion” that purport to permit revisions to SIP approved emissions 

limits with limited public process or without requiring further approval by EPA, that may be 

contrary to the CAA (“director's discretion”); (iii) existing provisions for minor source NSR 

programs that may be inconsistent with the requirements of the CAA and EPA’s regulations that 

pertain to such programs (“minor source NSR”); and, (iv) existing provisions for PSD programs 

that may be inconsistent with current requirements of EPA’s “Final NSR Improvement Rule,” 67 

FR 80186 (December 31, 2002), as amended by 72 FR 32526 (June 13, 2007) (“NSR Reform”). 

Instead, EPA has indicates that it has other authority to address any such existing SIP defects in 

other rulemakings, as appropriate. A detailed rationale for why these four substantive issues are 

not part of the scope of infrastructure SIP rulemakings can be found in EPA’s July 13, 2011, 
Page 4 of 23

final rule entitled, “Infrastructure SIP Requirements for the 1997 8-hour Ozone and PM2.5

National Ambient Air Quality Standards” in the section entitled, “What is the scope of this final 

rulemaking?” (see 76 FR 41075 at 41076-41079).

III. SIP elements required under Section 110(a)(2) for the 2008 Lead NAAQS, the State’s 

submittals and EPA’s analysis 

 The Federally approved SIP for each state is listed in 40 CFR 52. The first section in 

this subpart for any state is the “Identification of plan.” The Identification of plan lists the EPAapproved provisions of the SIP for each state, as provided under section 110 of the Act, 42 

U.S.C. 7410, and 40 CFR 51 to meet the NAAQS. The status of the New Mexico SIP is 

provided in 40 CFR Part 52, Subpart GG, sections 1620 to 1640. The Identification of plan for 

New Mexico is in section 1620; this constitutes the applicable SIP for New Mexico, for purposes 

of the Act. 

Per the General Preamble to the 1990 Clean Air Act Amendments (April 16, 1992 at 57 

FR 13498), section 110(a)(2) sets forth elements that a SIP must contain in order to be fully 

approved.6 In the following sections of this document we provide additional information, not 

included in the Federal Register notice for this action, which we considered in performing our 

evaluation of New Mexico’s infrastructure SIP submittal for the 2008 Pb NAAQS. Where it is 

useful, we include tables showing the date that the applicable state rules were approved by EPA 

into the New Mexico SIP. 

1. Enforceable emission limits and other control measures: Section 110(a)(2)(A) requires 

SIPs to include enforceable emission limits and other control measures, means or techniques, as 

well as schedules and timetables for compliance, as necessary or appropriate to meet the 

requirements of this chapter. 

 

The State’s response: In its submittal, the State of New Mexico indicates that New Mexico’s 

enforceable emission limitations and other control measures are covered in the Air Quality 

Control Act and those provisions of the New Mexico Administrative Code (NMAC) Title 20- 

Environment Protection, Chapter 2- Air Quality, listed in 40 CFR Part 52 Subpart GG, and 

source-specific provisions codified at 40 CFR Part 52 Subpart GG. The State also asserted that 

the regulations authorized by Chapter 74- Environmental Improvement of New Mexico’s state 

statute (1978 NMSA) are duly adopted by the Environmental Improvement Board, and where 

these provisions relate to section 110 requirements, SIP revisions have been submitted to and 

approved by EPA. The State also indicates that New Mexico has an EPA-approved air 

permitting program for both major and minor sources, which ensures that all applicable 

requirements are included in the source’s permit. The NMED has determined that no reductions 

in Pb emissions are required for maintenance of the 2008 Pb NAAQS. 

 Furthermore, the State asserts that, pursuant to NMAC 20.2.7, it does not exempt from 

enforcement any excess emissions that occur during periods of startup, shutdown, maintenance, 

or malfunction. Emissions in excess of permit or regulatory limits are presumptively violations, 

subject to affirmative defenses with the burden of proof on the respondent.

 The discussion of section 110(a)(2), subsections (A) through (M) begins on p. 13556 of the General Preamble. 
Page 5 of 23

EPA analysis: Section 110(a)(2)(A) requires that all measures and other elements in the SIP be 

enforceable. This subsection also authorizes SIPs to contain certain nontraditional techniques for 

reducing pollution – economic incentives, marketable permits, and auctions of emissions rights. 

The EPA reads this language to require even these other means of achieving reductions to be 

enforceable.7

 The Air Quality Control Act designates the NMED as the State’s air pollution 

control agency and the Environmental Improvement Act provides the NMED with enforcement 

authority. We reviewed the New Mexico SIP and found state rules adequate to implement and 

enforce the 2008 Pb NAAQS, and limit or reduce emissions of lead. These rules include 

emission limits, control measures, as well as permits and fees. Table 1 below provides a list of 

New Mexico regulations and emissions standards that have been approved by EPA into the New 

Mexico SIP and thus are federally enforceable.

2. Ambient air quality monitoring and data analysis system: Section 110(a)(2)(B) requires 

SIPs to include provisions for establishment and operation of ambient air quality monitors, 

collecting and analyzing ambient air quality data, and making these data available to EPA upon 

request. 

The State’s response: In its submittal, the NMED stated that New Mexico maintains and 

operates a multi-station network to measure ambient levels within the state for comparison to the 

NAAQS. All monitoring data is measured using EPA approved methods as either reference of 

Equivalent monitors. All monitors are subjected to the quality assurance requirements of 40 

CFR Part 58, Appendix A, and are located at sites that have met the minimum siting 
Page 7 of 23

requirements of Part 58, Appendix E. The data is submitted to EPA’s Air Quality System (AQS) 

system in accordance with the schedule prescribed by 40 CFR Part 58. New Mexico SIP 

satisfies this particular element of section 110(a)(2)(B). The State submits an Annual Ambient 

Monitoring Network Plan (AAMNP) to EPA’s Region 6 office for review and approval. The 

most recent AAMNP was submitted on July 15, 2013, and approved on April 9, 2014. 

 In its certification, the State indicates that it presently does not operate any sourceoriented Pb monitors due to the absence in the state of any stationary sources that emit Pb in 

quantities equal to or exceeding 0.5 tons per year. Likewise, NMED does not operate any nonsource or population-based monitors for Pb due to the absence of any Core-Based Statistical 

Area (CBSA) with a population of 500,000 or greater. A population-based monitor is operated 

by the City of Albuquerque/Bernalillo County; however, Albuquerque/Bernalillo County is 

outside of NMED’s jurisdiction and has submitted its own infrastructure SIP for the 2008 Pb 

NAAQS. The State asserts that if any Pb monitoring is required in the future, all monitoring data 

will be measured using EPA-approved methods as either Reference or Equivalent monitors. All 

monitors will be subjected to the quality assurance requirements of 40 CFR Part 58, Appendix A, 

and located at sites that have met the minimum siting requirements of Part 58, Appendix E. All 

data will be submitted to EPA’s Air Quality System (AQS) in accordance with the schedule 

prescribed by 40 CFR Part 58. 

 

EPA analysis: As noted in the Federal Register notice for this proposed action, our analysis 

included review of New Mexico’s recurrent 5-year ambient monitoring network assessment 

submitted in June 2010 and New Mexico’s annual ambient monitoring network review submitted 

in July 2013. Copies of these documents are available in the docket for this rulemaking. As 

indicated in these documents, NMED’s jurisdictional area does not contain any stationary point 

sources with emissions of Pb significant enough to trigger source-oriented ambient monitoring, 

or any population centers large enough to trigger population-oriented ambient monitoring. 

 Additionally, we evaluated the inventory of Pb-emitting sources located in the state of 

New Mexico, as reported to the 2008 and 2011 National Emissions Triennial Inventory. This list 

of Pb-emissions sources, their geographic locations, and quantities of Pb emitted to the air 

confirm that are no stationary point sources within NMED’s jurisdiction that emit Pb in 

quantities equal to or exceeding 1,000 pounds per year, the threshold for triggering sourceoriented ambient Pb monitoring. A summary of the 2011 Triennial NEI Pb-emitting inventory is 

included as Part VI of this document. 

3. Program for enforcement of control measures: Section 110(a)(2)(C) requires states to 

include a program providing for enforcement of the measures described in subparagraph (A), and 

the regulation of the modification and construction of any stationary sources within the areas 

covered by the SIP as necessary to assure that the NAAQS are achieved, including a permit 

program as required in parts C and D. 

The State's response: In its submittal, the State indicates that NMED has established regulations, 

including NMAC sections 20.2.72, 20.2.74, and 20.2.79, which govern the enforcement of 

control measures, including attainment plans and permitting programs that regulate construction 

and modification of stationary sources. The State asserts that NMED’s PSD program applies to 

sources that emit greenhouse gases in accordance with EPA’s tailoring rule (see 20.2.74.AZ 

NMAC). 
Page 8 of 23

EPA analysis: Refer to Table 1 above or the table of EPA-approved New Mexico Regulations 

and Statutes at 40 CFR 52.1606 for a list of the state rules and laws that we evaluated in our 

review of New Mexico’s infrastructure SIP submittal. 

4. Interstate transport, and interstate and international pollution abatement: Section 

110(a)(2)(D) is divided into two components, 110(a)(2)(D)(i) and 110(a)(2)(D)(ii). Section 

110(a)(2)(D)(i) requires SIPs to include provisions prohibiting any source or other type of 

emissions activity in one state from contributing significantly to nonattainment in, or interfering 

with maintenance of the NAAQS, in another state, or from interfering with measures required to 

prevent significant deterioration of air quality or to protect visibility in another state. 

Section 110(a)(2)(D)(ii) requires SIPs to include provisions ensuring compliance with 

sections 115 and 126 of the Act, relating to interstate and international pollution abatement. 

The State's response: 

 In its submittal, the State indicates that it currently does not have any nonattainment areas 

under the 2008 Pb NAAQS, and no Pb nonattainment areas are in close proximity to its borders. 

The Pb nonattainment area closest to New Mexico is the Colin County, Texas (Frisco) 

nonattainment area located in northern Texas, over 450 miles from the border New Mexico 

shares with Texas. 

 Additionally, the State points out that no significant sources of Pb emissions are located 

in the state. Total point source emissions for Pb in New Mexico are less than 0.5 tons per year, 

and the total emissions of Pb from area sources are less than 0.05 tons per year (based on the 

2005 National Emissions Inventory). 

 Due to the limited amount of point and area source Pb emissions in New Mexico and the 

lack of Pb nonattainment areas in the State or in proximity to its borders, the State has concluded 

that Pb emissions originating in New Mexico: do not significantly contribute to nonattainment, 

or interfere with maintenance of the NAAQS, in any other state with regards to the 2008 Pb 

NAAQS; do not interfere with the measures required to implement PSD or for the protection of 

visibility in any other state; and do not preclude the state from ensuring compliance with sections 

115 and 126 of the CAA. 

EPA analysis: All pertinent details of our analysis for this infrastructure element are included in 

the Federal Register notice. 

5. Adequate personnel, funding, and authority: Section 110(a)(2)(E) requires states to 

provide for adequate personnel, funding, and legal authority under state law to carry out its SIP 

and related programs. It also requires compliance with state board composition and conflicts of 

interest contained in section 128 of the Act and requires assurances that the state retain primacy 

for implementation of the SIP in cases where the state relies upon local or regional government 

agencies. 

The State’s response: 

With regards to section 110(a)(2)(E)(i), which pertains to adequate personnel, funding, 

and authority, the State of New Mexico indicates that New Mexico state statute, NMSA 1978, 
Page 9 of 23

section 74-2-5 provides the state’s Environmental Improvement Board authority to develop, 

implement, and enforce the SIP; adopt emissions standards and limitations and any other 

measures necessary for attainment and maintenance of national standards; and enforce applicable 

laws, regulations, standards, and compliance schedules, and seek injunctive relief. 

 The State indicates that the resources necessary to carry out the SIP are provided through 

general funds, permit fees, and the CAA section 103 and 105 grant processes. Permit fees are 

collected under the authority of 74-2-7 NMAC. 

 The State asserts that no organizations outside NMED will participate in implementing 

the SIP, and that New Mexico has adequate personnel to implement the SIP with respect to 

requirements of the 2008 Pb NAAQS. The State does not anticipate the need for additional 

resources to implement the SIP beyond those that have been utilized for the preparation of the 

plan and plan revisions submitted to EPA and other current programmatic demands. 

 With regards to section 110(a)(2)(E)(ii), which pertains to section 128 requirements for 

state boards, New Mexico indicates that NMSA 1978 Section 74-1-4 provides that the 

Environmental Improvement Board contain at least a majority of members who represent the 

public interest and do not derive any significant portion of their income from persons subject to, 

or who appear before the Board, on issues relating to the CAA or New Mexico’s Air Quality 

Control Act. Board members are required to recuse themselves from rulemakings in which their 

impartiality may reasonably be questioned. (See 20.1.1.111 NMAC). 

 With regards to section 110(a)(2)(E)(iii), which pertains to assurances concerning 

reliance on local government agencies, the State indicates that the City of Albuquerque/ 

Bernalillo County is authorized to carry out all portions of New Mexico’s SIP within the 

jurisdictional boundaries of Bernalillo County. However, NMED and the State Environmental 

Improvement Board retain oversight authority in the event the local authority fails to act. (See 

Section 74-2-4 NMSA). 

EPA analysis: All pertinent details of our analysis for this infrastructure element are included in 

the Federal Register notice. 

6. Stationary source emissions monitoring and reporting: Section 110(a)(2)(F) requires, as 

may be prescribed by the Administrator, (i) the installation, maintenance and replacement of 

equipment, and the implementation of other necessary steps, by owners or operators of stationary 

sources to monitor emissions from such sources, (ii) periodic reports on the nature and amounts 

of emissions and emissions-related data from such sources, and (iii) correlation of such reports 

by the State agency with any emission limitations or standards established pursuant to this Act, 

which reports shall be available at reasonable times for public inspection. 

The State's response: In its submittal for the 2008 Pb NAAQS, the State of New Mexico 

indicates that its regulatory requirements have been codified in 20.2.72 NMAC (Construction 

Permits), 20.2.70 NMAC (Operating Permits), and 20.2.79 NMAC (Permits-Nonattainment 

Areas). The State indicates that requirements in 20.2.7.73 NMAC (Notice of Intent and Emission 

Inventory Requirements) provide for the reporting of emissions inventories in a format 

established by the NMED on a schedule set forth in the regulation. New Mexico also asserts that 

enforceable emission limitations and other control measures are addressed in the State’s Air 

Quality Control Act and those provisions of 20.2 NMAC. The State indicates that 20.2.5 NMAC 
Page 10 of 23

(Source Surveillance) establishes the general requirements for maintaining and reporting records 

on emissions, including recordkeeping, data submissions, and public access to emission data. 

EPA analysis: All pertinent details of our analysis for this infrastructure element are included in 

the Federal Register notice. 

7. Emergency power: Section 110(a)(2)(G) requires states to provide for authority to address 

activities causing imminent and substantial endangerment to public health, including adequate 

contingency plans to implement the emergency episode provisions in their SIPs. 

The State's response: In its submittal for the 2008 Pb NAAQS, the State of New Mexico 

emphasizes that there are currently no significant sources of Pb emissions within the state or in 

close enough proximity to the state borders to impact communities in New Mexico. 

Nevertheless, the State indicates that existing statutes provide adequate authority to constrain any 

sources of Pb emissions, as necessary, should an emergency situation arise. Under NMSA 

Section 74-2-10, the Secretary of NMED is empowered to bring suit to immediately restrain a 

facility causing emissions that present an imminent and substantial endangerment to public 

health, welfare, or the environment. Alternatively, the NMED Secretary is authorized to issue 

orders necessary to protect the public health or welfare, or the environment, and then bring suit 

against contributing sources within 24 hours. If the Secretary brings an action within that time, 

the order is effective for another 48 hours or for such longer period as may be authorized by the 

court pending litigation. 

 New Mexico adopted an Air Pollution Episode Contingency Plan (56 FR 38074, August 

12, 1991),9 that addresses air pollution episodes and the occurrence of an emergency due to the 

effects of the pollutants on the health of persons. This Contingency Plan cites the State’s legal 

authority provided to the Secretary of the NMED under NMSA Section 74-2-10 in the event that 

an emergency episode is experienced. The State asserts that the Contingency Plan meets the 

requirements of 40 CFR Part 51, Subpart H, which concerns the prevention of Air Pollution 

Emergency Episodes. 

EPA analysis: All pertinent details of our analysis for this infrastructure element are included in 

the Federal Register notice. 

8. Future SIP revisions: Section 110(a)(2)(H) requires states to have the authority to revise 

their SIPs in response to changes in the NAAQS, availability of improved methods for attaining 

NAAQS, or in response to an EPA finding that the SIP is substantially inadequate. 

The State’s response: 

The State responded that the New Mexico SIP is a compilation of regulations, plans, and 

submittals that act to improve and maintain air quality in accordance with national standards. 

 

9

 The State erred in providing the date and Federal Register citation for EPA’s approval of New Mexico’s Air 

Pollution Episode Contingency Plan (56 FR 38074). The date and Federal Register citation the State provided in 

their submittal is for EPA’s approval of Albuquerque-Bernalillo County’s Air Pollution Episode Contingency Plan, 

submitted on April 14, 1989, and applies only within the boundaries of Bernalillo County (including the City of 

Albuquerque). EPA approved New Mexico’s Air Pollution Episode Contingency Plan on August 21, 1990 (the 

correct citation is 55 FR 34013). 
Page 11 of 23

The authority to develop or revise the SIP is based on the authority to adopt new regulations, 

revise existing regulations, and conduct business in a manner to meet the NAAQS. New Mexico 

state statute § 74-7-5 gives the board authority to perform these functions. § 74-7-5 also provides 

the board the authority to adopt regulations to abate, control, and prohibit air pollution 

throughout New Mexico in accordance with the provisions of State Rules Act [Chapter 14, 

Article 4, NMSA 1978]. Nothing in New Mexico's statutory or regulatory authority prohibits the 

State from revising the SIP in the event of a revision to the NAAQS. 

EPA analysis: All pertinent details of our analysis for this infrastructure element are included in 

the Federal Register notice. 

9. Nonattainment area plans or plan revisions under Part D of the CAA: Section 

110(a)(2)(I) contains provisions related to the submission of nonattainment area plans or plan 

revisions as specified in Part D of the CAA. 

The State's response: The State indicates that compliance under the Pb NAAQS will be 

evaluated with submitted SIP revisions for any future nonattainment areas. These SIP revisions 

will comply with the applicable requirements of Part D. The currently approved nonattainment 

area SIP provisions listed in 40 CFR Part 52, Subpart GG satisfy the Part D requirements. 

EPA analysis: As noted previously, EPA does not expect infrastructure SIP submissions to 

address subsection 110(a)(2)(I). Nonattainment area plans required under Part D are required to 

be submitted on a different schedule from the Section 110 infrastructure elements and will be 

reviewed and acted upon through a separate process.

10. Consultation, public notice, and PSD and visibility protection: Section 110(a)(2)(J) is 

divided into three components: consultation with government officials, public notification 

requirements, and provisions for PSD and visibility protection. With regards to consultation with 

government officials, this section requires states to provide a process for consultation with local 

governments and Federal Land Managers (FLMs) carrying out NAAQS implementation 

requirements pursuant to section 121 relating to consultation. Section 110(a)(2)(J) further 

requires states to notify the public if NAAQS are exceeded in an area and to enhance public 

awareness of measures that can be taken to prevent exceedances. Section 110(a)(2)(J) also 

requires States to meet applicable requirements of Part C related to Prevention of Significant 

Deterioration and visibility protection. 

The State's response: The State indicates that all SIP revisions undergo public notice and 

hearing, which provides for opportunities to comment by the public, including local political 

subdivisions. Additional public notification concerning compliance with the NAAQS is 

accomplished by real-time publishing of air quality data from NMED’s monitoring network to 

the NMED website. This air quality monitoring data is also submitted to EPA’s Air Quality 

System (AQS) in a timely manner, where it is also made public. The NMED website provides 

information on the air quality index (AQI) and on ways in which the public can participate in 

regulatory and planning efforts related to air quality. 

 With regards to the consultation requirements of the PSD permitting program, New 

Mexico has adopted 20.2.74 NMAC, Prevention of Significant Deterioration, following the 
Page 12 of 23

requirements outlined in 40 CFR 52 under section 161 of the CAA for prevention of significant 

deterioration. These PSD permitting provisions were approved by EPA as part of the SIP. 

 With regards to visibility protection, 20.2.74 NMAC includes procedures for protection 

of visibility in Class I areas. In addition, New Mexico submitted its Regional Haze SIP to EPA in 

June 2011. This SIP revision is intended to provide further visibility protection and 

improvements to federal Class I areas. 

EPA analysis: All pertinent details of our analysis for this infrastructure element are included in 

the Federal Register notice. 

 

11. Air quality modeling and submission of data: Section 110(a)(2)(K) requires that SIPs 

provide for performing air quality modeling to predict effects on air quality resulting from 

emissions of any NAAQS pollutant, and submission of such data to EPA upon request. 

The State’s response: The State indicates that New Mexico has developed Air Dispersion 

Modeling Guidelines that follow EPA guidelines for air dispersion modeling; these guidelines 

also include some internal policy language. The Air Quality Bureau within NMED contains a 

modeling section that is staffed with four qualified modelers, two of which have earned 

accredited doctorate of philosophy degrees. NMED submits to EPA data related to modeling 

upon request. 

EPA analysis: All pertinent details of our analysis for this infrastructure element are included in 

the Federal Register notice. 

12. Permitting fees: Section 110(a)(2)(L) requires SIPs to require each major stationary source 

to pay permitting fees to cover the cost of reviewing, approving, implementing and enforcing a 

permit. 

The State's response: The State indicates that the fee requirements of 20.2.71 NMAC (Operating 

Permit Emission Fees) and 20.2.75 NMAC (Construction Permit Fees) were approved by EPA 

as meeting the CAA requirements and were incorporated into New Mexico’s SIP (11/25/97, 62 

FR 50514). The State also indicates that New Mexico’s Title V operating permit program 

codified in 20.2.70 NMAC was approved by EPA in 1997 (11/25/97, 62 FR 50514).10 

EPA analysis: All pertinent details of our analysis for this infrastructure element are included in 

the Federal Register notice. 

13. Consultation/participation by affected local entities: Section 110(a)(2)(M) requires states 

to provide for consultation and participation in SIP development by local political subdivisions 

affected by the SIP. 

 

10 The date and Federal Register citation provided by New Mexico is for the rulemaking in which we made a CFR 

codification error in 40 CFR 52.1620(c) by incorrectly including entries in the table titled “EPA Approved New 

Mexico Regulations” for part 70 (Operating Permits) and part 71 (Operating Permit Emission Fees) of 20.2 NMAC. 

Part 70 and part 71 of 20.2 NMAC constitute New Mexico’s Title V permitting program and the associated 

permitting fees, respectively. The approval of NMED’s Title V operating permit program is codified at 40 CFR Part 

70, Appendix A. 
Page 13 of 23

The State’s response: In its submittal, the State responds to this infrastructure SIP requirement 

by stating that New Mexico Statute § 74-2-5.2 "State air pollution control agency; specific duties 

and powers of the department," requires advising; consulting; contracting with and cooperating 

with local authorities, other states, the federal government and other interested persons or groups 

in regard to matters of common interest in the field of air quality control; and initiation of 

cooperative action between a local authority and the department, between one local authority and 

another or among any combination of local authorities and the department for control of air 

pollution in areas having related air pollution problems that overlap the boundaries of political 

subdivisions; and entering into agreements and compacts with adjoining states and Indian tribes, 

where appropriate. The State's public participation requirements and procedures fulfill the 

requirements for consultation with local political subdivisions affected by the SIP. 

EPA analysis: All pertinent details of our analysis for this infrastructure element are included in 

the Federal Register notice. 

 

IV. EPA’s Recommendation
