III. Content of the Tests 

 The content of the subject-area tests that are selected or developed pursuant to the provisions of this policy 

shall be aligned with the academic standards approved by the State Board of Education. 

IV. Student Performance Standards 

 Student performance standards for the tests shall be established by the South Carolina Department of 

Education. 

V. Review of Academic Standards and End-of-Course Tests 

 The academic standards for the tests shall be reviewed on a schedule that is consistent with the 

requirements of the EAA. Following any revisions of the academic standards, the tests will be reviewed and 

revised as necessary to ensure their continued alignment with the standards. 

VI. Notice to Students 

 Students who are enrolled in the gateway courses shall be provided with paper copies of the academic 

standards that pertain to those particular courses. Students will be advised that the final examination for each 

gateway course will be based on the skills and content represented in the academic standards. District 

personnel shall provide this information to students not later than the first day of instruction in the course. 

Fiscal Impact Statement: 

No additional state funding is requested. The South Carolina Department of Education estimates that no 

additional costs will be incurred in complying with the proposed revisions to R.43-262.4. 

Statement of Rationale:

Students who have successfully completed a gateway course and then take a course based on the same 

academic standards should not be required to take the same subject end-of-course test a second time.

Revision Vol. 75 July 20, 2010 [75 FR 41991] 

Statement of Need and Reasonableness:

This statement of need and reasonableness was determined by staff analysis pursuant to S.C. Code Section 1-

23-115(C)(1)-(3) and (9)-(11). 

DESCRIPTION OF REGULATION: (1) Amendments to Regulations 61-62.60, New Source Performance 

Standards (NSPS); 61-62.61, National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP); and 61-

62.63, National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Source Categories. (2) 

Amendments to Regulations 61-62.63, National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) 

for Source Categories, to incorporate a 2008 rule entitled National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air 

Pollutants for Source Category: Gasoline Dispensing Facilities (73 FR 35939; June 25, 2008). (3) 

Amendments to R. 61-62.5, Standard 2, Ambient Air Quality Standards, to reformat the Ambient Air Quality 

Standards table and revise R. 61-62.5, Standard 2, to delete an annual standard for particulate matter 10 

micrometers in diameter and smaller (PM10) that the EPA revoked in 2006 (71 FR 61144; October 17, 2006). 

(4) Amendments to R. 61-62.5, Standard 7, Prevention of Significant Deterioration, to incorporate maximum 

allowable increases in ambient pollutant concentrations (“increments”) required by the rule entitled Prevention 

of Significant Deterioration (PSD) for Particulate Matter Less Than 2.5 Micrometers (PM2.5) – Increments, 

Significant Impact Levels (SILs) and Significant Monitoring Concentration (SMC) (75 FR 64864; October 20, 

2010). The Department also proposes other changes to R. 61-62, Air Pollution Control Regulations and 

Standards, which include corrections for internal consistency, clarification, reference, punctuation, 

codification, formatting, and spelling to improve the overall text of R. 61-62.

66 FINAL REGULATIONS 

South Carolina State Register Vol. 36, Issue 4 

April 27, 2012 

Purpose: These amendments will maintain conformity with Federal requirements and ensure compliance with 

federal standards pursuant to 40 CFR Parts 50, 51, 52, 60, 61, and 63. 

Legal Authority: The legal authority for R. 61-62, Air Pollution Control Regulations and Standards, is S.C. 

Code Section 48-1-10, et seq. 

Plan for Implementation: The amendments will take effect upon approval by the Board of Health and 

Environmental Control and publication in the State Register. These requirements are in place at the federal 

level and are currently being implemented. The proposed amendments will be implemented in South Carolina 

by providing the regulated community with copies of the regulation, publishing associated information on our 

website at http://www.scdhec.gov/administration/regs/, sending an email to stakeholders, and communicating 

with affected facilities during the permitting process. 

DETERMINATION OF NEED AND REASONABLENESS OF THE REGULATION BASED ON ALL 

FACTORS HEREIN AND EXPECTED BENEFITS: 

The EPA promulgates amendments to 40 CFR Parts 50, 51, 52, 60, 61, and 63 throughout each calendar year. 

Recent federal amendments included revisions to the Prevention of Significant Deterioration program for 

PM2.5 to incorporate increments and screening tools, the deletion of an annual standard for particulate matter 

10 micrometers in diameter and smaller (PM10), as well as new and revised NSPS rules, NESHAPs, and 

NESHAPs for Source Categories. States are mandated by law to adopt these Federal amendments. These 

amendments are reasonable as they promote consistency and ensure compliance with both state and federal 

regulations. 

DETERMINATION OF COSTS AND BENEFITS: 

There will be no increased cost to the state or its political subdivisions resulting from this revision. The 

standards to be adopted are already effective and applicable to the regulated community as a matter of federal 

law, thus the regulated community has already incurred the cost of these regulations. The amendments will 

benefit the regulated community by clarifying the regulations and increasing their ease of use. 

UNCERTAINTIES OF ESTIMATES: 

There are no uncertainties of estimates relative to the costs to the state or its political subdivisions. 

EFFECT ON ENVIRONMENT AND PUBLIC HEALTH: 

Adoption of the recent changes in federal regulations through the amendments to R. 61-62, Air Pollution 

Control Regulations and Standards, and the SIP will provide continued protection of the environment and 

public health. 

DETRIMENTAL EFFECT ON THE ENVIRONMENT AND PUBLIC HEALTH IF THE REGULATIONS 

ARE NOT IMPLEMENTED: 

The state’s authority to implement federal requirements, which are beneficial to the public health and 

environment, would be compromised if these amendments were not adopted in South Carolina.
