Adequacy Status of the Columbus and 

Toledo, OH, Submitted 8-Hour Ozone 

Redesignation and Maintenance Plans 

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 

that the motor vehicle emissions 

budgets (MVEBs) for volatile organic 

compounds (VOC) and oxides of 

nitrogen (NOX) in the Columbus, Ohio 

area (Delaware, Fairfield, Franklin, 

Knox, Licking, and Madison Counties) 

and the Toledo, Ohio area (Lucas and 

Wood Counties) are adequate for use in 

transportation conformity 

determinations. Ohio submitted the 

Columbus budgets with an 8-hour ozone 

redesignation request and maintenance 

plan on December 28, 2006, January 10, 

2007, and March 9, 2007. Ohio 

submitted the Toledo budgets with an 8- 

hour ozone redesignation request and 

maintenance plan on December 22, 

2006, and March 9, 2007. As a result of 

our finding, Columbus and Toledo, 

Ohio must use the MVEBs from the 

submitted 8-hour ozone redesignation 

and maintenance plan for future 

transportation conformity 

determinations. 

DATES: This finding is effective May 16, 

2007.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Throughout this document, whenever 

‘‘we’’, ‘‘us’’ or ‘‘our’’ is used, we mean 

EPA. 

Background 

Today’s notice is simply an 

announcement of a finding that we have 

already made. On April 5, 2007, EPA 

Region 5 sent a letter to the Ohio 

Environmental Protection Agency 

stating that the 2009 and 2018 MVEBs 

for the Columbus and Toledo areas, 

which were submitted with the 8-hour 

ozone redesignation request and 

maintenance plans, are adequate. 

Receipt of these MVEBs was announced 

on EPA’s transportation conformity 

website, and no comments were 

submitted. The finding is available at 

EPA’s conformity Web site: http:// 

www.epa.gov/otaq/stateresources/ 

transconf/adequacy.htm. 

The adequate 2009 and 2018 MVEBs, 

in tons per day (tpd), for VOC for 

Columbus and Toledo are as follows: 

I 

2009 

MVEB 

(tpd) 

2018 

MVEB 

(tpd) 

Columbus ...................... 72.16 41.50 

Toledo ........................... 18.99 11.20 

The adequate 2009 and 2018 MVEBs, 

in tons per day (tpd), for NOX for 

Columbus and Toledo are as follows: 

I 

2009 

MVEB 

(tpd) 

2018 

MVEB 

(tpd) 

Columbus ...................... 125.43 56.30 

Toledo ........................... 33.75 14.11 

Transportation conformity is required 

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

EPA’s conformity rule requires that 

transportation plans, programs, and 

projects conform to state air quality 

implementation plans and establishes 

the criteria and procedures for 

determining whether or not they do. 

Conformity to a State Implementation 

Plan (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 transportation 

conformity purposes are outlined in 40 

CFR 93.118(e)(4). We have described 

our process for determining the 

adequacy of submitted SIP budgets in 

our July 1, 2004, preamble starting at 69 

FR 40038, and we used the information 

in these resources while making our 

adequacy determination. 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. 

The finding and the response to 

comments are available at EPA’s 

transportation conformity Web site:

stateresources/transconf/adequacy.htm.
