"0 RULE EVALUATION FORM: See instructions for completing the Rule 

Evaluation Form and the accompanying sample form. 

(x)	 NON-EPA TEST METHOD: Include all test methods that are referenced 

in the rule, but not previously submitted to EPA. Provide an explanaton 

of the purpose and principle for the test method and include the following 

supporting technical data: describe the test details (number of tests to be 

carried out, their precision accuracy, and repeatability); on a technical 

basis, compare the method with the appropriate EPAIASTM method; 

explain the technical differences of the two methods and how they affect 

monitoring of the parameters of interest; explain how the test method 

affects the implementation and enforcement of the applicable rule; 

explain the advantages and any potential shortcomings of the test 

method. 

(x)	 MODELING SUPPORT: Provide if appropriate; in general modeling 

support is not required for VOC and NOx rules to determine their impacts 

on ozone levels. Modeling is required where a rule is a relaxation that 

affects large sources (~ 100 TPY) in an attainment area for S02, directly 

emitted PM10, CO, or NOx (for N02 purposes). In cases where EPA is 

concerned with the impact on air quality of rule revisions which relax 

limits or cause a shift in emission patterns in a nonattainment area, a 

reference back to the approved SIP will be sufficient provided the 

approved SIP used the current EPA modeling guidelines. If current EPA 

modeling guidelines were not used, then new modeling may be required. 

(x)	 ECONOMIC AND TECHNICAL JUSTIFICATION FOR DEVIATIONS 

FROM EPA POLICIES: As appropriate, describe special circumstances, 

Le., where alternative RACT is used, extended compliance data are 

included, etc. A completed SIP Approvability Checklist-Enforceability will 

fulfill this reqUirement. 

() ADDITIONAL MATERIALS: Provide any other supporting information 

concerning development of the rule or rule changes, such as staff 

reports.
