Fine Particle (PM2.5) SIP - Redesignation Request and Maintenance Plan 

Date Posted: 7/25/2012 

On July 18, 2012, the New Jersey Department of Environmental 

Protection (NJDEP) submitted its "State Implementation Plan (SIP) 

Revision for the Attainment and Maintenance of the Fine Particulate 

Matter (PM2.5) National Ambient Air Quality Standards: Redesignation 

Request and Maintenance Plan Proposal" to the USEPA. The Department is 

proposing a revision to the SIP to request that the USEPA redesignate the New 

Jersey portions of the Northern New Jersey-New York-Connecticut (NNJ-NY-CT) 

and the Southern New Jersey-Philadelphia (SNJ-Phila.) PM2.5 nonattainment 

areas to attainment in accordance with the Clean Air Act. This SIP revision 

presents the data and information that the USEPA requires in order to 

redesignate the areas to attainment. 

The redesignation request is a major milestone in New Jersey’s clean air effort. 

Attainment of the PM2.5 National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) 

represents a significant health benefit to the citizens of New Jersey. 

Notice of Public Hearing and Comment Period for New Jersey’s Redesignation 

Request for Fine Particle Standard

All documents are available for public review at the DEP offices located at 401 

East State Street, Trenton, New Jersey.
