Philadelphia, PA 19103-2029 

Dear Mr. Garvin: 

Enclosed for your approval is a revision to the Pennsylvania State Implementation Plan (SIP) to 

address the requirements of Clean Air Act (CAA) 110(a)(2)(E)(ii) and 128 for all National 

Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS). 

The SIP revision consists of the contents of"Section 110(a)(2)(E)(ii) and§ 128 for all NAAQS" 

and "Appendix B: Portions of the Public Official and Employee Ethics Act provisions to be 

approved into the Pennsylvania SIP to address Clean Air Act Sections 128 and 110(a)(2)(E)(ii)

Infrastructure State Implementation Plan Revision Clean Air Act Sections 110(a)(1) and 110(a)(2) 

Applicable Requirements for the 2008 8-Hour Ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS); and 

State Implementation Plan Revision for Clean Air Act Section 128 for all NAAQS

Background

On March 12, 2008, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) promulgated revisions to the 8-hour ozone national ambient air quality 

standard (NAAQS). EPA lowered the standard from 0.08 parts per million (ppm), promulgated in 1997, to 0.075 ppm (73 FR 16436). 

Section 110 of the Federal Clean Air Act (CAA), 42 U.S.C.A. § 7410, requires states to develop State Implementation Plan (SIP) revisions 

and programs to meet the NAAQS established by EPA to protect public health and welfare. Section 110 of the CAA also prescribes general 

elements for the implementation of SIPs. Sections 110(a)(1) and 110(a)(2) of the CAA (42 U.S.C.A. §§ 7410(a)(1) and (2)), require states to 

submit SIP revisions to the EPA Administrator that provide for implementation, maintenance, and enforcement of the NAAQS. This SIP 

revision, generally referred to as the “infrastructure SIP,” describes basic elements designed to assure attainment and maintenance of the 2008 

Ozone NAAQS including: ambient air quality monitoring, emission inventories, enforcement of control measures, modeling, monitoring, 

nonattainment new source review, prevention of significant deterioration and stationary source monitoring. States are required to submit 

these infrastructure SIP revisions to EPA within three years from the date a new or revised NAAQS is signed by the EPA Administrator.

Sections 110(a)(1) and 110(a)(2) of the CAA (42 U.S.C. §§ 110(a)(1) and 110(a)(2)) describe how states are to implement, maintain and 

enforce a NAAQS. This infrastructure SIP revision fulfills the requirements of Sections 110(a)(1) and 110(a)(2) set forth herein for the 2008

Ozone NAAQS. Once approved by EPA, the SIP revision will provide a federally enforceable plan of how the Commonwealth of 

Pennsylvania (Commonwealth) will comply with the applicable requirements of Sections 110(a)(1) and 110(a)(2) of the CAA set forth herein 

for the 2008 Ozone NAAQS. This SIP revision also fulfills the requirements of Section 128 of the CAA.

Statutory authority for the Pennsylvania air quality program, relating to the responsibilities in the CAA, is codified in the Pennsylvania Air 

Pollution Control Act, 35 P.S. §§ 4001 – 4015 (APCA), including in Section 4 of the APCA, which gives the Pennsylvania Department of 

Environmental Protection (DEP) the power and duty to implement the provisions of the CAA in the Commonwealth. 35 P.S. § 4004(1).

Pursuant to Sections 110(a)(1) and 110(a)(2) of the CAA, the Commonwealth has reviewed applicable provisions in the Pennsylvania APCA, 

the implementing regulations in the Pennsylvania Code, local ordinances and regulations in Philadelphia and Allegheny Counties, and the 

State Implementation Plan found at 40 CFR Part 52 Subpart NN. 
July 2014

Based on the applicable statutory and regulatory authority and the SIP revision submittal for CAA Section 128, Pennsylvania’s SIP provides 

for the implementation, maintenance, and enforcement of the applicable elements set forth in Sections 110(a)(1) and 110(a)(2), pertinent to 

the implementation of the 2008 8-Hour Ozone NAAQS, and the implementation, maintenance and enforcement of the applicable elements set 

forth in Section 128 of the CAA, pertinent to the implementation of all NAAQS.

Requirements for a public comment process are set forth in Section 110(a)(2) of the CAA and 40 CFR § 51.102(d). A public comment period 

was provided from May 3, 2014, to June 6, 2014, with an opportunity for a public hearing.

Section

SIP Requirement Applicable Pennsylvania Statutes and Regulations

§ 110(a)(2)(A) Each implementation 

plan submitted by a 

State under this Act 

shall be adopted by 

the State after 

reasonable notice and 

public hearing. Each 

plan shall include 

enforceable emission 

limitations and other 

control measures, 

means, or techniques 

(including economic 

incentives such as 

fees, marketable 

permits, and auctions 

of emissions rights), as 

well as schedules and 

timetables for 

compliance as may be 

necessary or 

appropriate to meet 

the applicable 

requirements of this 

chapter.

The Commonwealth’s enforceable emission limitations and other control measures are

authorized under the APCA, (35 P.S. §§ 4001-4015), and implementing regulations in Title 

25 of the Pennsylvania Code (Pa. Code), Article III, (relating to air resources), Chapters 

121-145 (25 Pa. Code Chapters 121-145); 67 Pa. Code Chapters 175-177 (codified in 40 

CFR § 52.2020(c)(1)); Allegheny County Health Department (ACHD) Regulations, Parts A 

through I to Articles XX and XXI (codified in 40 CFR § 52.2020(c)(2)); Philadelphia Title 

3 Air Management Code and Philadelphia Air Management Services (Philadelphia AMS)

Regulations I, II, III, IV, V, VII, VIII, XI, and XIII (codified in 40 CFR § 52.2020(c)(3));

and source specific provisions codified in 40 CFR § 52.2020(d)(1) and (2). Philadelphia 

and Allegheny Counties both administer local air pollution control programs approved by 

DEP. 

The Article III regulations in the Pennsylvania Code are duly adopted by the Pennsylvania 

Environmental Quality Board (EQB) and implemented and enforced by DEP. Where these 

provisions relate to requirements of Section 110 of the CAA, SIP revisions have been 

submitted to and approved by EPA. EPA-approved SIP revisions for Pennsylvania are 

codified in 40 CFR Part 52, Subpart NN. The Commonwealth has an EPA-approved air 

quality permitting program for plan approval (pre-construction and construction permits) 

and operating permits (for both major and minor facilities), which ensures that all applicable 

requirements are included in the federally enforceable plan approvals and operating permits.

DEP also implements and enforces a federally enforceable general plan approval and 

general operating permit program. 

The regulatory provisions are approved by EPA and codified in 40 CFR §§ 52.2020(c)(1), 

52.2020(c)(2), 52.2020(c)(3), 52.2020(d), 52.2061, 52.2062, 52.2063 and 40 CFR Part 70,

Clean Air Act 

Section

SIP Requirement Applicable Pennsylvania Statutes and Regulations

§ 110(a)(2)(B) Each implementation 

plan submitted by a 

State under this Act 

shall be adopted by 

the State after 

reasonable notice and 

public hearing. Each 

plan shall provide for 

establishment and 

operation of 

appropriate devices, 

methods, systems, and 

procedures necessary 

to

(i) monitor, compile, 

and analyze data 

on ambient air 

quality, and

(ii) upon request, 

make such data 

available to the 

Administrator; 

The Commonwealth’s ambient air quality monitoring data system is authorized under

Section 4(17) of the APCA, 35 P.S. § 4004(17). DEP is authorized under Section 4(17) to 

“determine by means of field studies and sampling the degree of air pollution existing in 

any part of the Commonwealth.” DEP establishes, operates, and maintains a network of 

ambient air monitors throughout Pennsylvania, excluding Philadelphia and Allegheny 

Counties. Philadelphia AMS operates its monitoring network as a Pennsylvania approved 

program under Section 12 of APCA, 35 P.S. § 4012, and the terms of the “Agreement for 

Implementation of the Philadelphia County Air Pollution Control Program,” dated October

2010. The ACHD operates its monitoring network as a Pennsylvania approved program 

under Section 12 of the APCA and the terms of the “Agreement for Implementation of the 

Allegheny County Air Pollution Control Program,” dated October 30, 1998. These 

agreements address data collection, data access and reporting in Philadelphia and Allegheny 

Counties. A copy of the APCA and a copy of the agreements with ACHD and Philadelphia 

AMS are provided in Appendix A. 

The ozone monitors in the Pennsylvania ambient monitoring network (DEP and local 

agencies) have been designated by EPA as either Reference or Equivalent monitors under

40 CFR Part 53. All ambient air monitors are subjected to the Quality Assurance 

requirements of 40 CFR Part 58, Appendix A. In addition, all samplers are located at sites 

that have met the minimum siting requirements of 40 CFR Part 58, Appendix E.

An annual network design plan is required by 40 CFR § 58.10 to be submitted to the EPA 

Regional Administrator by July 1 of each year. The network design document informs both 

EPA and the public of any planned changes to the sampling network for the next year. The 

annual network design plan provides a description of the current monitoring network, a 

reason for each change, and any other information relevant to the change. DEP submits an 

annual network design plan to the EPA, for 65 counties in Pennsylvania. ACHD, in 

Allegheny County, and Philadelphia AMS, in Philadelphia County, submit annual network 

design plans for their respective counties. DEP provides a 30-day public comment period 

for the annual network design plan submitted by DEP. ACHD and Philadelphia AMS both 

make the annual network design plans available for public inspection, as required under 40

CFR § 58.10(a)(1), and provide a 30-day comment period. If ACHD and Philadelphia AMS 

are unable to provide the 30-day public comment period for the network design plans, a 

comment period would be provided by the EPA pursuant to 40 CFR § 58.10(a)(2). In 

addition, as required under 40 CFR § 58.14, DEP and the local air agencies provide EPA 

Region III with prior notification of any changes to the network between formal network 

design submissions. As needed, details of these changes are communicated to and approved 

by EPA. Copies of the most recent EPA letters approving the monitoring networks for 

DEP, ACHD, and Philadelphia AMS are provided in Appendix A. 

In accordance with 40 CFR Part 58, DEP and the local air pollution control agencies in 

Philadelphia and Allegheny Counties collect and report to EPA all ambient air quality data 

for sulfur dioxide, carbon monoxide, ozone, nitrogen dioxide, course particulate matter, and 

fine particulate matter. The reports comply with the federal requirements of 40 CFR §

58.35. As necessary, the submitted data is reviewed, edited, validated, and entered into the 

EPA Air Quality System (AQS) for updating, pursuant to prescribed AQS procedures (40 

CFR § 58.16). The EPA AQS receives each report within 90 days after the end of the 

quarterly reporting period. 

DEP analyzes such air quality data (including data from the local agencies) to verify

attainment status or progress.

§ 110(a)(2)(C) Each implementation 

plan submitted by a 

State under this Act 

shall be adopted by 

the State after 

reasonable notice and 

public hearing. Each 

plan shall include a 

program to provide 

for the enforcement of 

Sections 4 and 8 of the APCA, 35 P.S. §§ 4004 and 4008, provide adequate authority for 

DEP to enforce appropriate emission limitations and other control measures for all NAAQS. 

Section 6.1(k) of the APCA, 35 P.S. § 4006.1(k), provides that DEP shall require revisions 

to any permit to incorporate applicable standards and regulations promulgated under the 

CAA after issuance of a Title V permit.

The Commonwealth has an EPA-approved air permitting program for the preconstruction, 

construction and operation of both major and minor facilities, which ensures that all 

applicable requirements are included in federally enforceable plan approvals, operating 

permits and general plan approvals and general operating permits. These regulatory

DEP adopted the requirements promulgated by the EPA under the CAA for a Prevention of 

Significant Deterioration (PSD) of Air Quality Program. These requirements were adopted 

to make the PSD requirements independently enforceable by DEP and to implement Title I, 

Part C of the CAA. The PSD Program is also part of the SIP and is codified in 40 CFR §

52.2020(c)(1). EPA approved a SIP revision pertaining to the PSD Program in Allegheny 

County, as submitted by ACHD, on February 28, 2013 (78 FR 13493). EPA stated in the 

Federal Register notice that the SIP revision for PSD in Allegheny County meets the 

statutory obligations with respect to infrastructure SIP requirements. EPA approved a SIP 

revision pertaining to the PSD Program in Philadelphia County, as submitted by 

Philadelphia AMS, on March 28, 2003 (68 FR 15060). EPA stated in the Federal Register 

notice that the SIP revision including Philadelphia AMS Regulation XIII meets the 

minimum requirements of 40 CFR Part 51 with regard to PSD programs. 

Section 9.1 of the APCA, 35 P.S. § 4009.1, provides that DEP may assess civil penalties for 

violations of the APCA, violations of regulations adopted under the APCA, violations of 

DEP orders or terms, and violations of conditions of plan approvals and operating permits. 

Additionally, Section 7.1 of the APCA, 35 P.S. § 4007.1, authorizes DEP to withhold plan 

approvals, state operating permits, or Title V permits, where an applicant or related party 

has shown a lack of ability or intention to comply with the APCA. 

The Commonwealth’s enforceable emission limitations and other control measures are 

covered in those provisions of the APCA and implementing regulations in 25 Pa. Code 

Chapters 121-145; 67 Pa. Code Chapters 175-177, codified in 40 CFR § 52.2020(c)(1);

Visibility: Pennsylvania submitted its Regional Haze SIP revision under CAA Section 169 

in December 2010 to address visibility related pollutants. EPA issued a limited disapproval 

and limited approval of Pennsylvania’s Regional Haze SIP revision on June 7, 2012, and 

April 30, 2014, respectively. (77 FR 33642 and 79 FR 24340). The limited disapproval 

resulted from Pennsylvania’s reliance on the Clean Air Interstate Rule (CAIR) to address 

regional emission transport. The limited disapproval included a Regional Haze Federal 

Implementation Plan (FIP) for Pennsylvania, which replaced reliance on CAIR with 

reliance on the Cross-State Air Pollution Rule (CSAPR). The U.S. Court of Appeals 

vacated CSAPR in August 2012 and ordered EPA to continue administering CAIR. EME 

Homer City Generation L.P. v EPA, 696 F.3d 7 (D.C. Cir. 2012), cert. granted 133 S.Ct. 

2857 (2013). The Supreme Court of the United States on April 29, 2014 reversed the Court 

of Appeals’ judgment and remanded the case for further proceedings. Environmental 

Protection Agency v. EME Homer City Generation, L.P., 134 S. Ct. 1584 (2014). 

Pennsylvania does not have a Class I area. The closest Class I areas to Pennsylvania are 

Brigantine Wilderness in New Jersey and Otter Creek Wilderness in West Virginia, which 

are approximately 70 and 73 kilometers, respectively, from the borders with Pennsylvania. 

Pennsylvania’s Regional Haze SIP, along with Pennsylvania’s SIP provisions to implement 

CAIR, adequately prevent sources in Pennsylvania from interfering with measures adopted 

by other states to protect visibility.

and other control measures are authorized by the following: the APCA and applicable 

implementing provisions in 25 Pa. Code Chapters 121-145; 67 Pa. Code Chapters 175-177 

codified in 40 CFR § 52.2020(c)(1); provisions of ACHD Regulations, Parts A through I to 

Articles XX and XXI codified in 40 CFR § 52.2020(c)(2); provisions of Philadelphia Title 3 

Air Management Code and Philadelphia AMS Regulations I, II, III, IV, V, VII, VIII, XI, 

and XIII codified in 40 CFR § 52.2020(c)(3); and source specific provisions codified in 40 

CFR § 52.2020(d)(1). The regulations in the Pennsylvania Code are adopted by the EQB

and promulgated under the Commonwealth Documents Law. Section 12 of the APCA 

reserves powers to political subdivisions to enact air pollution control ordinances, which are 

not less stringent than the requirements of the CAA, the APCA, and regulations adopted 

under the acts. Section 12 of the APCA authorizes only two local air pollution control 

programs in the Commonwealth, which are administered by Philadelphia AMS and ACHD. 

See ‘Local Agency Legal Authority’ for further information about the Philadelphia AMS 

and ACHD programs.

Local Agency Legal Authority: Section 12 of the APCA (35 P.S. § 4012) authorizes local 

air pollution control programs in any county of the first or second class of the 

Commonwealth; these are Philadelphia and Allegheny Counties. Consistent with Section 

12 of the APCA and the terms of DEP’s approval of the counties’ local air pollution control 

programs, the local agencies continue to operate their own programs, which, at a minimum,

must meet the requirements of the APCA, the CAA and the regulations adopted under the 

acts. The ACHD local air pollution control program is authorized under County Ordinance 

16782 and implementing regulations in Article XXI. Regulations in Allegheny County are 

adopted by the Allegheny County Board of Health, enacted by Allegheny County Council, 

and approved by the Allegheny County Chief Executive. The enabling authority for 

Philadelphia AMS is provided by Title 3, Air Management Code. Ordinances that make up 

the Philadelphia Code in Philadelphia County are passed by the Philadelphia City Council 

and approved by the Mayor of Philadelphia. Title 3 of the Philadelphia Code authorizes the 

City’s Air Pollution Control Board to promulgate Air Management Regulations; Title 3 of 

the Philadelphia Code and the Air Management Regulations are enforced by Philadelphia

revisions have been submitted to and approved by EPA. EPA-approved SIP revisions are 

codified in Pennsylvania’s SIP at 40 CFR Part 52, Subpart NN. 

State Revenue: Section 6.3 of the APCA (35 P.S. § 4006.3) authorizes the EQB to 

establish, by regulation, a permanent annual air emission fee, as required for regulated 

pollutants by Section 502(b) of the CAA (42 U.S.C.A. § 7661a(b)), to cover the reasonable 

direct and indirect costs of administering the operating permit program required by Title V 

of the CAA, other related requirements of the CAA, and the reasonable indirect and direct 

costs of administering the Small Business Stationary Source Technical and Environmental 

Compliance Assistance Programs, including the Small Business Compliance Advisory 

Committee and the Office of Small Business Ombudsman. The emission fee shall not apply 

to emissions of more than 4,000 tons of any regulated pollutant. Section 6.3 of the APCA 

also authorizes the EQB, by regulation, to establish fees to support the air pollution control 

program authorized by the APCA and not covered by fees required by Section 502(b) of the

CAA.

The implementing air quality fee provisions are codified in 25 Pa. Code Chapter 127, 

Subchapter I (relating to plan approval and operating permit fees). The APCA also 

authorizes the establishment of fees to cover non-Title V costs. Pennsylvania’s air quality 

program also receives revenue from fines and civil penalties.

Section 9.2 of the APCA provides that all fines, civil penalties, and fees collected under the 

APCA shall be paid into the Treasury of the Commonwealth in a special fund known as the 

Clean Air Fund (CAF), which shall be administered by DEP for use in the elimination of air 

pollution. Section 9.2 of the APCA further provides that DEP may establish such separate 

accounts, as may be necessary, to implement the requirements of the APCA and the CAA. 

The fees are deposited into restricted accounts in the CAF and are used as prescribed in the 

statutes and implementing regulations. DEP prepares Comparative Financial Statements for 

each account in the CAF, and projects the expenditures out five years to assure the stability

of the fund. CAF Spending Plans are developed and approved for two fiscal years. DEP

receives federal funds under Sections 105 and 103 of the CAA. State General Fund 

appropriations are used to match the Section 105 grant.

Local Revenue: The local agencies have their own authority to collect Title V and other 

fees, receive Section 105 and 103 funds directly from EPA, and also receive revenue from 

fines and penalties, that are restricted for air quality program purposes.

State Staffing: DEP has adequate personnel to implement the SIP with respect to the 2008 

Ozone NAAQS requirements. Should EPA determine that DEP lacks adequate personnel to 

implement the SIP, EPA is authorized to issue a finding with respect to that deficiency, 

which DEP would have a legal obligation to correct within 18 months after such finding. 

Local Staffing: DEP’s Agreement for Implementation of the Philadelphia County Air 

Pollution Control Program and the Agreement for Implementation of the Allegheny County 

Air Pollution Control Program (see § 110(a)(2)(B) element, above) assure that the two 

DEP-approved local agencies similarly have the necessary personnel, funding and authority 

to carry out their respective obligations under the SIP.

The following section addresses applicable Pennsylvania statutory provisions pertaining to 

CAA § 110(a)(2)(E)(ii) and CAA § 128 for all NAAQS. This section and the statutory 

provisions referenced in it and included in Appendix B are being submitted to EPA as a 

new SIP revision for inclusion in the Pennsylvania SIP. 

For purposes of § 128(a)(1) and (2), Pennsylvania does not have a board or body that 

approves permits or enforcement orders under the CAA. 

For purposes of § 128(a)(2), DEP provides the following regarding individuals who approve 

permits or enforcement orders. Permits and enforcement orders are issued directly by 

persons within DEP, ACHD and Philadelphia AMS, not state boards. The Pennsylvania 

Public Official and Employee Ethics Act defines “conflict of interest” and requires

disclosure of potential conflicts of interest for public officials and public employees. 

65 Pa.C.S. § 1101 (relating to short title of chapter), § 1102 (relating to definitions) and

§ 1104(a) (relating to statement of financial interests required to be filed). These sections 

apply to the head of DEP and other Commonwealth employees who approve permits or 

enforcement orders. The Public Official and Employee Ethics Act also applies to public 

officials and public employees of political subdivisions, through applicable definitions in 65 

Pa.C.S. § 1102. Therefore, persons approving air permitting and enforcement actions in 

Allegheny and Philadelphia Counties are also covered. The Public Official and Employee 

Ethics Act requires that the public officials and public employees in DEP, ACHD and 

Philadelphia AMS file annual financial disclosure statements. 65 Pa.C.S. § 1104(a). The 

form and content of the financial disclosure statements are prescribed by the Public Official 

and Employee Ethics Act. 65 Pa.C.S. § 1105 (relating to statement of financial interests). 

Applicable penalties relating to violating the financial disclosure statement requirements are 

included in the Public Official and Employee Ethics Act. 65 Pa.C.S. § 1109(b), (c), (g)

(relating to penalties). Applicable provisions of the Public Official and Employee Ethics

AMS and ACHD. DEP maintains agreements with these two local air agencies, upon 

whom DEP relies for implementation of the SIP in Allegheny and Philadelphia Counties. 

DEP has approved the local programs in the areas of financial assistance; annual workload 

projection; emissions reporting; source monitoring and reporting; enforcement; ambient air 

monitoring and reporting; and air quality permitting. DEP has responsibility for ensuring 

adequate implementation of SIP provisions by local authorities under Section 12 of the

Regulatory requirements for sampling, testing and monitoring by owners or operators of 

stationary sources have been codified in 25 Pa. Code Chapter 139 (pertaining to sampling 

and testing). Requirements in 25 Pa. Code § 135.3 provide for the reporting of emissions 

inventories by source owners and operators, in a format established by DEP, on a schedule 

set forth in 25 Pa. Code § 135.3. In addition, 25 Pa. Code § 135.21 requires the submission 

of emission statements, as required by the CAA. Area, mobile, and nonroad data are 

reported to EPA on a 3-year cycle, consistent with 40 CFR Part 51. In accordance with 

25 Pa. Code §§ 127.12b(c) and 127.441(c), plan approvals and operating permits (including 

Title V Operating Permits) issued by DEP incorporate the monitoring, recordkeeping and 

reporting provisions required by 25 Pa. Code Chapter 139 (relating to sampling and testing) 

and other monitoring, recordkeeping or reporting requirements of Article III and additional 

requirements related to monitoring, recordkeeping and reporting required by the Clean Air 

Act and the regulations thereunder, including, if applicable, the enhanced monitoring 

requirements of 40 CFR Part 64 (relating to enhanced monitoring). These provisions, 

which assure compliance with applicable requirements including the Compliance Assurance 

Monitoring (CAM) requirements of 40 CFR Part 64 were approved by EPA as revisions to 

the Commonwealth’s SIP on July 30, 1996. See 40 CFR § 52.2020 (c)(110)(i)(C).

Chapter 139 are codified in 49 CFR § 52.2020(c)(1). DEP correlates emissions reports by 

sources with applicable emissions limitations or standards through periodic inspections and 

record reviews of the sources. The Commonwealth is responsible for making all records, 

reports or information obtained by DEP, or referred to at public hearings under the 

provisions of the APCA, available to the public, except to the extent the records, reports or 

information are determined by DEP to be confidential under Section 13.2 of the APCA, 

35 P.S. § 4013.2. The types of records DEP routinely provides access to include 

notifications, inspection reports, notices of violation, enforcement orders, applications, 

permit review letters, sample results, monitoring reports, permits, approvals and denials that 

would relate to § 110(a)(2)(F) of the CAA. All emissions data to which DEP has access is 

not considered confidential information. DEP makes information available for public 

access through its Web site (www.depweb.state.pa.us), but also makes hard copy reports 

available upon written request. DEP also supplies EPA with an annual stationary source 

inventory for major emitters of NOX (2,500 tons per year or more) and VOC (250 tons per 

year or more) in the Commonwealth, which is available to the public on the website,

regulations for the prevention, control, reduction and abatement of air pollution. In 

addition, 25 Pa. Code § 131.2 adopts and incorporates the federal NAAQS by reference. 

The effective date for a new or revised NAAQS is the same in Pennsylvania as the effective 

date set forth in the Federal Register. DEP has revised, and will continue to revise, the SIP,

as may be necessary when EPA revises the primary or secondary NAAQS and when, if

power and duty is the obligation to meet the NAAQS established under the CAA. 

Section 4(15) of the APCA provides that DEP has the power and duty to conduct or cause 

to be conducted studies and research with respect to air contaminants, their nature, causes 

and effects, and with respect to the control, prevention, abatement and reduction of air 

pollution and air contamination. 35 P.S. § 4004(15). This enabling legislation empowers 

DEP to perform air quality modeling and to make data submissions prescribed by the 

Administrator of EPA, in accordance with Section 110(a)(2)(K) of the CAA. Additionally, 

DEP has incorporated by reference, in its entirety, 40 CFR § 52.2058 (relating to prevention 

of significant air quality deterioration) in 25 Pa. Code §§ 127.81-83, which applies 

statewide except for Allegheny and Philadelphia Counties. The adoption of the federal PSD 

program authorizes DEP to require any modeling required by the federal PSD program. 

ACHD administers a PSD program in Allegheny County, which was approved by EPA as a 

SIP revision on February 28, 2013 (78 FR 13493) and Philadelphia AMS administers a PSD

program, which was approved by EPA as a SIP revision on March 28, 2003 (68 FR 15060). 

Pennsylvania will continue to perform modeling as required under the CAA to demonstrate

implemented in accordance with 25 Pa. Code Chapter 127, Subchapters F and G, was 

approved by EPA on July 30, 1996 (61 FR 39597). While permit fees are standardized for 

the entire Commonwealth, collection of fees and Title V permitting activities are shared by 

DEP, ACHD and Philadelphia AMS. ACHD and Philadelphia AMS collect Title V fees

[44 Pa.B. 2707]

[Saturday, May 3, 2014]

The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) is proposing to revise the 

Commonwealth's State Implementation Plans (SIP) to address the requirements of section 

110(a)(1) and (2) of the Clean Air Act (CAA) (42 U.S.C.A. § 7410(a)(1) and (2)) for the 

2008 8-Hour Ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS), the 2010 1-Hour 

Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2) NAAQS, the 2010 1-Hour Sulfur Dioxide (SO2) NAAQS and the 

2012 Annual Fine Particulate Matter (PM2.5) NAAQS. Additionally, the Department is 

proposing an SIP revision addressing the requirements of section 128 of the CAA (42 

U.S.C.A. § 7428) for all NAAQS. Section 110(a)(1) and (2) of the CAA direct each state to 

develop and submit to the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) a plan 

that provides for the implementation, maintenance and enforcement of the NAAQS within 3 

years after promulgation of a new or revised primary or secondary NAAQS. This type of 

SIP revision is commonly referred to as an infrastructure SIP. The proposed SIP revision for 

section 128 of the CAA for all NAAQS is in the same document as the proposed 

infrastructure SIP revision for the 2008 Ozone NAAQS and consists of the information 

provided for sections 110(a)(2)(E)(ii) and 128 of the CAA and the statutory provisions in 

Appendix B. The infrastructure SIP revisions for ozone, NO2, SO2 and PM2.5address 

section 110(a)(2)(A), (B), (C), (D)(i) and (ii), (E)(i)—(iii), (F)(i)—(iii), (G), (H), (J), (K), 

(L) and (M) of the CAA. The Department does not address section 110(a)(2)(I) of the CAA 

in these SIP revisions per the September 2013 ''Guidance on Infrastructure State 

Implementation Plan (SIP) Elements under Clean Air Act Sections 110(a)(1) and 110(a)(2)'' 

provided by the EPA. The SIP revision for section 128 of the CAA addresses sections 110

(a)(2)(E)(ii) and 128 of the CAA for all NAAQS.

This proposal is available on the Department's web site at www.dep.state.pa.us (click on 

''Air'').

The Department is seeking public comment on the proposed section 110(a)(1) and (2) of 

the CAA infrastructure SIP revisions and the proposed section 128 of the CAA SIP 

revision, which address the requirements of section 110(a)(1) and (2) of the CAA for the 

2008 Ozone NAAQS, the 2010 NO2

 NAAQS, the 2010 SO2 NAAQS and the 2012 PM2.5

PA Bulletin, Doc. No. 14-927 Page 1 of 2

NAAQS and the requirements of sections 110(a)(2)(E)(ii) and 128 of the CAA for all 

NAAQS. The Department will hold three public hearings, if requested, to receive comments 

on the proposals. The first hearing will be held from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. on June 4, 2014, in 

the Schuylkill River Room, Department of Environmental Protection Southeast Regional 

Office, 2 East Main Street, Norristown, PA. The second hearing will be held from 10 a.m. 

to 12 p.m. on June 4, 2014, in the Juniata River Room, Department of Environmental 

Protection Southcentral Regional Office, 909 Elmerton Avenue, Harrisburg, PA. The third 

hearing will be held from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. on June 4, 2014, in the Waterfront A Room, 

Department of Environmental Protection Southwest Regional Office, 400 Waterfront Drive, 

Pittsburgh, PA.

Persons wishing to present testimony at these hearings should contact Alex Haas, P. O. 

Box 8468, Harrisburg, PA 17105, (717) 787-9495, alehaas@pa.gov to reserve a time. For 

each hearing, the hearing will be cancelled if no person has requested to testify at the 

hearing by 12 p.m. on June 2, 2014. If one or more of the hearings are cancelled, the 

Department will notify the public on its previously listed web site. Witnesses should keep 

testimony to 10 minutes and provide two written copies of their statement at the hearing.

Persons with a disability who wish to attend these hearings and require an auxiliary aid, 

service or other accommodation to participate in the proceeding should contact Alex Haas 

at the previously listed phone number or e-mail address. TDD users may contact the 

Pennsylvania AT&T Relay Service at (800) 654-5984 to discuss how the Department can

Public Hearing 

The Pennsylvania Department ol 

Environmental Prctect•on (DEP) is 

proposing to revise the Pennsylvania SIP to address the requirements 

of Clean Air Act (CAA} SeCtions 

110(a)(1) and 110{a)(2) for the 

2008 8-Hour Ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS), 

the 2010 1-Hour Nitrogen Dioxide 

(N02) NAAQS, the 2010 1-Hour 

Sulfur Dioxide (S02} NAAQS and 

the 2012 Annual Fine Particulate 

Matter (PM2.5} NAAQS. Additional· 

ly, DEP is proposing a SIP revision 

addressing the requirements of 

CAA Section 128 (relating to state 

boards} lor all NAAQS. Clean Air 

Act Sections 110(a}(1} and 

110(a)(2} direct each state to develop and submit to the U.S. Environ· 

mental Protection Agency (EPA) a 

plan that provides for the impjementation, maintenance, and enforcement of the NAAQS within three 

years after promulgation of a new 

or revised primary or secondary 

NAAQS. This type of SIP rev1sion 

is commonly referred to as an 'intrastructure S!P.' The pro~Q~ed SIP 

revision for CAA Section 128 for all 

NAAQS is in the same document as 

the proposed infrastructure SIP revision tor the 2008 Ozone NAAQS, 

and consists ot the intormation provided for Sections 110(a}(2}(E}(ii) 

and 128 and the statutory provisions in Appendix B. The infrastructure SIP revisions for ozone, 

N02, 802 and PM2.5 address CAA 

Sections 110(a){2)(A), 110(a}(2)(B), 

110(a)(2)(C), 110(a)(2){D)(i),

address CAA Section 110(a}(2)(1} in 

these SIP revisions per the September 2013 '"Guidance on Infrastructure State Implementation Plan 

(SIP) Elements under Clean Air Act 

Sections 110{a}(1) and 110(a){2)" 

provided by EPA. The SIP revision 

lor GAA Section 128 addresses 

CAA Sections 11 O(a)(2)(E)(ii) and

Comment and Response Document 

Proposed Revisions to the Infrastructure State Implementation Plans for the 

2008 8-Hour Ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS); 

2010 1-Hour Nitrogen Dioxide NAAQS; 

2010 1-Hour Sulfur Dioxide NAAQS; and

[This page intentionally left blank.]
- 1 - 

On May 3, 2014, the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) published a 

notice of public hearing and commenced a 35-day written comment period on the proposed 

revisions to the Infrastructure State Implementation Plans (i-SIPs) for the 2008 8-Hour Ozone 

NAAQS, 2010 1-Hour Nitrogen Dioxide NAAQS, 2010 1-Hour Sulfur Dioxide NAAQS and 

2012 Annual Fine Particulate Matter NAAQS; and the proposed SIP revision for Clean Air Act 

Section 128 for all NAAQS (all applicable statewide) (44 Pa.B. 2707). No member of the public 

requested a public hearing so the scheduled hearings were cancelled and notice was posted on 

DEP’s website. The comment period closed on June 6, 2014.

This document summarizes the written comments received prior to the close of the public 

comment period. The list of commentators is set forth below:

COMMENTS AND RESPONSES 

NOTE 1: Commentator No. 2, the Sierra Club, frequently refers to DEP as ‘PaDEQ’ throughout 

the comment document. The DEP has never been known as PaDEQ, however. In DEP’s 

responses, DEP assumes that the commentator is referring to DEP when the commentator refers 

to PaDEQ. 

NOTE 2: Commentator No. 2, the Sierra Club, frequently references elements that it asserts 

must be included in the SIP. DEP would like to clarify that everything that has been approved 

by EPA and codified in 40 CFR Part 52, Subpart NN, Section 52.2020, is Pennsylvania’s SIP, 

which includes but is not limited to numerous Pennsylvania regulations; Pennsylvania’s

Prevention of Significant Deterioration, New Source Review, and permitting programs; and 

Pennsylvania’s attainment demonstrations, maintenance plans, inventories, and other SIP 

revisions. Different types of SIP revisions address different requirements under the CAA, and 

are generally divided into ‘planning’ SIPs (including infrastructure SIPs), and ‘control strategy’ 

SIPs. Inclusion in Pennsylvania’s SIP is not limited to items listed in infrastructure SIP 

revisions. This note applies to all Responses to Commentator No. 2 in this Comment and 

Response Document. 

COMMENTS: 

1. COMMENT: 110(a)(2)(B) – In the discussion of how this element is addressed in part 

by the Allegheny County Health Department (ACHD) and Philadelphia Air Management 

Services (AMS), the proposed revisions state “The 30-day public comment period for the 

ACHD and Philadelphia AMS network design plans is provided by the EPA pursuant to 

40 CFR § 58.10(a)(2).” The public comment period for network design plans for these 

localities is provided by the localities and not by EPA. EPA does however review the 

plans and as indicated in the proposal, correspondence related to the reviews is included 

in Appendix A of the proposed submittals. (1) 

RESPONSE: DEP agrees with commentator. The i-SIP revisions for the 2008 8-Hour 

Ozone NAAQS, 2010 1-Hour Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2) NAAQS, 2010 1-Hour Sulfur 

Dioxide (SO2) NAAQS and 2012 Annual Fine Particulate Matter (PM2.5) NAAQS have 

been revised to reflect that both ACHD and AMS provide public comment periods on 

their respective proposed network design plans. The SIP revision also explains that, if 

the local agencies fail to provide a public comment period, a 30-day comment period 

would be provided by EPA pursuant to 

40 CFR 58.10(a)(2). 

2. COMMENT: 110(a)(2)(D)(i) – EPA recognizes that there was likely an overlap in time 

during which these revisions were being readied and a legal opinion was issued. On 

April 29, 2014, the United States Supreme Court reversed the opinion of the D. C. Circuit 

Court in EME Homer City Generation, L. P. v EPA v, 696 F.3d7 (D.C. Cir. 2012) which 

Does not pertain to this rulemaking action
- 3 - 

had vacated EPA’s Cross State Air Pollution Rule (CSAPR) and remanded the matter to 

the D. Dc. Circuit for further proceedings. (1) 

RESPONSE: DEP has removed all language relating to 110(a)(2)(D)(i)(I) in the i-SIP 

revisions for the 2008 8-Hour Ozone NAAQS, 2010 1-Hour NO2 NAAQS, 2010 1-Hour 

SO2 NAAQS and 2012 PM2.5 NAAQS and will address the requirements of that section 

in a future SIP revision. 

3. COMMENT: 110(a)(2)(D)(i) – On April 30, 2014, EPA reissued its final limited 

approval of Pennsylvania SIP revision to implement the Commonwealth’s regional haze 

program for the first planning period through 2018 (79 FR 24340). EPA is currently 

reviewing the legal opinion discussed above for implications on the regional haze 

program. (1) 

RESPONSE: DEP has revised the i-SIP revisions for the 2008 8-Hour Ozone NAAQS, 

2010 1-Hour NO2 NAAQS, 2010 1-Hour SO2 NAAQS and 2012 PM2.5 NAAQS to 

update the date EPA issued the limited approval of Pennsylvania’s regional haze SIP 

revision and to remove references to the earlier limited approval dated July 13, 2012, and 

the petition for review of it, filed on September 11, 2012. 

4. COMMENT: SO2 Infrastructure SIP Revision – The document indicates in element 

F(iii) that “DEP also supplies EPA with an annual stationary source inventory for major 

emitters of NOX ... and VOC...”. If appropriate, the Commonwealth could indicate if it 

also includes sources that emit SO2. (1) 

RESPONSE: DEP does not submit an annual stationary source inventory to EPA based 

on SO2 emissions. DEP does, however, include reporting requirements for SO2 in 

permits issued to stationary sources in the Commonwealth. Stationary facilities are 

required to submit an Annual Emission Statement (AES); nitrogen oxides (NOX), sulfur 

oxides (SOX), volatile organic compounds (VOC), course particulate matter (PM10), fine 

particulate matter (PM2.5), ammonia (NH3) and carbon monoxide (CO) emissions of 1.0 

ton per year or more per sub facility must be reported on a sub facility by sub facility 

basis. DEP supplies facilities with reporting instructions in the document “Instructions 

for Completing the Annual Emission Statement Reporting Forms – rev 11/2007” 

(DEP Document #2700-BK-DEP1936). All emissions reported on the AES are entered 

into DEP’s computer system: Air Information Management System / environment, 

Facility, Application, Compliance Tracking System (AIMS/eFACTS). The public can 

search the eFACTS system online at the website 

http://www.ahs.dep.pa.gov/eFACTSWeb/default.aspx to find facility specific reports or 

reports of all facilities emitting a specific pollutant. The public can request copies of 

permits or other non-confidential information by contacting DEP directly. Additionally, 

AIMS/eFACTS data is provided to the federal National Emission Inventory (NEI) 

database and to other state agencies and the public upon request. DEP revised the SO2

i-SIP revision to incorporate this information.

5. COMMENT: PM2.5 Infrastructure SIP Revision – The document indicates in element 

F(iii) that “DEP also supplies EPA with an annual stationary source inventory for major 

emitters of NOX ... and VOC...”. If appropriate, the Commonwealth could indicate if it 

also includes sources that emit PM2.5. (1) 

RESPONSE: DEP does not submit an annual stationary source inventory to EPA based 

on PM2.5 emissions. DEP does, however, include reporting requirements for PM2.5 in 

permits issued to stationary sources in the Commonwealth. Stationary facilities are 

required to submit an Annual Emission Statement (AES); nitrogen oxides (NOX), sulfur 

oxides (SOX), volatile organic compounds (VOC), course particulate matter (PM10), fine 

particulate matter (PM2.5), ammonia (NH3) and carbon monoxide (CO) emissions of 1.0 

ton per year or more per sub facility must be reported on a sub facility by sub facility 

basis. DEP supplies facilities with reporting instructions in the document, “Instructions 

for Completing the Annual Emission Statement Reporting Forms – rev 11/2007” 

(DEP Document #2700-BK-DEP1936). All emissions reported on the AES are entered 

into DEP’s computer system: Air Information Management System / environment, 

Facility, Application, Compliance Tracking System (AIMS/eFACTS). The public can 

search the eFACTS system online at the website 

http://www.ahs.dep.pa.gov/eFACTSWeb/default.aspx to find facility specific reports or 

reports of all facilities emitting a specific pollutant. The public can request copies of 

permits or other non-confidential information by contacting DEP directly. Additionally, 

AIMS/eFACTS data is provided to the federal National Emission Inventory (NEI) 

database and to other state agencies and the public upon request. DEP revised the PM2.5

i-SIP revision to incorporate this information. 

6. COMMENT: The plain language and legislative history of the Clean Air Act require 

that Infrastructure SIPs must impose emission limits adequate to prevent NAAQS 

exceedances in areas not designated nonattainment. (2) 

RESPONSE: DEP disagrees with the commentator and the commentator’s narrow 

interpretation of the CAA. An infrastructure SIP is only the first step in a state’s 

planning for attaining and maintaining a new or revised NAAQS. See Note 2, above. 

DEP believes the requirement in Section 110(a)(2)(A) of the CAA that the SIP provide 

for “implementation, maintenance and enforcement” means for purposes of Section 110 

that a state may rely on measures already in place to address the pollutant at issue or any 

new control measures that the state may choose to submit. This is consistent with EPA’s 

expressed interpretation of Section 110, as explained in EPA’s approval of the Delaware1

and Virginia2i-SIPs for the 2008 Ozone NAAQS.3 DEP agrees with EPA that, in light of 

 

1. Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans; Delaware; Infrastructure Requirements for the 

2008 Ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standards; U.S. Environmental Protection Agency; 79 FR 18644 

(April 3, 2014) hereafter referred to as the Delaware Ozone i-SIP approval. 

2. Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans; Virginia; Section 110(a)(2) Infrastructure 

Requirements for the 2008 Ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standards; U.S. Environmental Protection 

Agency, 79 FR 17043 (March 27, 2014), hereafter referred to as the Virginia Ozone i-SIP approval. 

3. See Delaware Ozone i-SIP approval Section III(C)(a) – Response 2 on pages 18648-18649 and Virginia Ozone

the structure of the CAA, infrastructure SIPs are general planning SIPs to ensure that a 

state has adequate resources and authority to implement a NAAQS in general throughout 

the state and not detailed attainment and maintenance plans for each individual area of 

the state.4 The two legislative history references presented by the commentator only 

indicate that states should include enforceable emission limits in their SIPs (not 

specifically in their infrastructure SIPs) and do not address whether states are required to 

include maintenance plans for all areas of the state as part of the infrastructure SIP.5 

Additionally, the two legislative history references pertain to Section 110 as promulgated 

in 1970 and not to Section 110 as amended in 1990. 

7. COMMENT: EPA regulations implementing the Clean Air Act require that 

Infrastructure SIPs impose emission limits adequate to prohibit NAAQS exceedances in 

areas not designated as nonattainment. The commentator cites 40 CFR § 51.112(a) to 

support this comment. (2) 

RESPONSE: DEP disagrees. See Note 2 and the response to Comment 6, above. In 

addition, EPA has determined that 40 CFR § 51.112(a), cited by the commentator, 

applies when states are developing control strategy SIPs, such as detailed attainment or 

maintenance plan SIPs.6 EPA considers i-SIPs to be general planning SIPs, not control 

strategy SIPs, and as such, the specific requirements of the section cited are not 

applicable.7 DEP agrees with EPA’s approach.

8. COMMENT: Prior EPA interpretations of the Act require that Infrastructure SIPs 

impose emission limits adequate to prohibit NAAQS exceedances in areas not designated 

nonattainment. The commentator cites two EPA actions in support of this comment, 

namely EPA’s partial approval and partial disapproval of a Missouri SIP revision 

pertaining to the previous (1971) SO2 standard (71 FR 12623 (March 13, 2006)), and

EPA’s proposed disapproval of Indiana’s SO2 SIP revision (78 FR 78720 

(December 27, 2013)). (2) 

RESPONSE: DEP disagrees that prior EPA interpretations of the CAA require that 

infrastructure SIPs impose emission limits adequate to prohibit NAAQS exceedances in 

areas not designated nonattainment. See Note 2 and the responses to Comments 6 and 7, 

above. It is clear from EPA’s final rule on the Missouri SIP revision that the agency was 

taking action on an attainment (or control strategy) SIP revision, and not on an i-SIP 

revision.8 Therefore, EPA’s action is not applicable to the i-SIPs being submitted to EPA

by DEP. EPA’s proposed disapproval of Indiana’s SO2 SIP revision is a proposal and 

cannot be used as evidence of final EPA actions. It is also clear in Section I of that 

proposal, entitled, “What is the background for this action?”, that EPA is proposing 

disapproval of the Indiana SIP revision because it fails to meet the requirements of CAA 

Section 110(l), not Section 110(a). In addition to that, EPA’s proposed action on the 

Indiana SIP revision relates to a proposed revision to Indiana’s approved SO2 attainment 

plan, not the SO2 i-SIP,9and is therefore not applicable to the i-SIPs being submitted to 

EPA by DEP. 

9. COMMENT: Supreme and Appellate Court opinions hold that Infrastructure SIPs must 

impose emission limits adequate to prohibit NAAQS exceedances in areas not designated 

nonattainment. (2) 

RESPONSE: DEP disagrees. None of the cases cited by the commentator support the 

commentator’s contention regarding infrastructure SIPs. DEP incorporates EPA’s 

analysis of the cases in EPA’s final actions on the Delaware Ozone i-SIP approval and 

the Virginia Ozone i-SIP approval.10 See Note 2 and the responses to Comments 6

through 8, above. 

10. COMMENT: Pennsylvania’s draft SO2 I-SIP fails to include enforceable one-hour SO2

emission limitations to ensure attainment and maintenance of the primary SO2 NAAQS. 

Pennsylvania’s draft SO2 I-SIP must be revised to include enforceable one-hour SO2

emission limitations for sources currently allowed to cause exceedances of the NAAQS. 

(2) 

RESPONSE: DEP disagrees. See Note 2 and the responses to Comments 6 through 9, 

above. In addition, the CAA requires states with areas designated as nonattainment under 

a NAAQS to submit an applicable implementation plan meeting the requirements of 

Part D of the CAA by deadlines established in the CAA or EPA regulations. According 

to EPA’s “Guidance on Infrastructure State Implementation Plan (SIP) Elements under 

Clean Air Act Sections 110(a)(1) and 110(A)(2)” issued in September 2013, “emission 

limitations and other control measures needed to attain the NAAQS in areas designated 

as nonattainment for that NAAQS will be due on a different schedule from the 

Section 110 infrastructure elements and will be reviewed and acted upon with regard to 

approvability for the specific purpose of such an attainment plan under CAA 

Title I Part D through a separate process at a later time.”11 DEP is not adding new 

emission limitations in the i-SIPs being submitted to EPA; emission limitations will be 

addressed, as necessary and appropriate, through mechanisms that may include but are

not limited to rulemaking, permit amendment or SIP revision, or a combination thereof. 

This approach is supported by EPA’s long-standing position regarding i-SIPs, which is 

that “they are general planning SIPs to ensure that the state has adequate resources and 

authority to implement a NAAQS in general throughout the state and not detailed 

attainment and maintenance plans for each individual area of the state.”12

 DEP’s i-SIPs 

demonstrate that Pennsylvania has adequate resources and authority. 

11. COMMENT: Pennsylvania’s draft SO2 i-SIP must include emission limitations and 

should use modeling to show that the emission limitations (source-specific one-hour SO2

emission limits) show no exceedances of the SO2 NAAQS when modeled. (2) 

RESPONSE: See Note 2 and the responses to Comments 6 through 10, above, for 

DEP’s position on the inclusion of emission limitations in i-SIPs. DEP will evaluate all 

available tools, including modeling data and analysis, through mechanisms that may 

include but are not limited to rulemaking, permit amendment or SIP revision, or a 

combination thereof, as necessary and appropriate, to meet CAA requirements for the 

SO2 NAAQS.

12. COMMENT: Pennsylvania’s draft SO2 I-SIP must include enforceable SO2 emission 

limits with a one-hour averaging period that apply at all times. (2) 

RESPONSE: See Note 2 and the responses to Comments 6 through 10, above, for 

DEP’s position on the inclusion of emission limitations in i-SIPs. DEP will evaluate 

requirements relating to emission limitations, including averaging periods, through 

mechanisms that may include but are not limited to rulemaking, permit amendment or 

SIP revision, or a combination thereof, as necessary and appropriate, to meet CAA 

requirements for the SO2 NAAQS. 

13. COMMENT: Pennsylvania’s draft SO2 I-SIP must require monitoring of SO2 emission 

limits on a continuous basis using a continuous emission monitor system or systems. (2)

RESPONSE: See Note 2 and the responses to Comments 6 through 10, above. DEP 

will evaluate monitoring requirements through mechanisms that may include but are not 

limited to rulemaking, permit amendment or SIP revision, or a combination thereof, as 

necessary and appropriate, to meet CAA requirements for the SO2 NAAQS. 

14. COMMENT: PaDEQ must establish enforceable emission limits at major sources and 

must amend Pennsylvania’s draft SO2 I-SIP to include those limits, to ensure that large 

sources of SO2 cannot cause exceedances of the one-hour SO2 NAAQS. Commentator 

made the same comment relating to the draft ozone I-SIP, relating to emission limits for 

ozone precursor pollutants. (2)

 

12. See footnote 4. 

Does not pertain to this rulemaking action
- 8 - 

RESPONSE: See Note 2 and the responses to Comments 6 through 10, above, for 

DEP’s position on the inclusion of emission limitations in i-SIPs. DEP will evaluate 

requirements relating to emission limitations at major sources through mechanisms that 

may include but are not limited to rulemaking, permit amendment or SIP revision, or a 

combination thereof, as necessary and appropriate, to meet CAA requirements for the 

SO2 NAAQS. 

15. COMMENT: Pennsylvania’s draft Ozone I-SIP fails to include enforceable emission 

limitations needed to address significant monitored violations of the primary ozone 

NAAQS. (2)

RESPONSE: See Note 2 and the responses to Comments 6 through 10, above, for 

DEP’s position on the inclusion of emission limitations in i-SIPs. DEP will evaluate all 

available tools, including monitoring data, through mechanisms that may include but are 

not limited to rulemaking, permit amendment or SIP revision, or a combination thereof, 

as necessary and appropriate, to meet CAA requirements for the ozone NAAQS. 

16. COMMENT: Monitoring data demonstrates that at least one county in Pennsylvania is 

exceeding the 2008 Ozone NAAQS. Pennsylvania’s draft Ozone I-SIP should be revised 

to address these exceedances and ensure attainment and maintenance of the 2008 Ozone 

NAAQS. (2) 

RESPONSE: EPA has stated that, “States must develop SIPs based on the information 

they had during the SIP development process and data that becomes available after that 

process is completed cannot undermine the reasonable assumptions that were made by 

the state based on the information it had available as it developed the plan.”13

 

Additionally, the CAA has provisions to address changes in air quality over time, 

including ‘provisions providing for redesignation in Section 107(d) of the CAA and 

provisions in Section 110(k)(5) of the CAA allowing EPA to call on the state to revise its 

SIP, as appropriate.”14 If EPA chooses to redesignate areas currently designated as 

attainment as nonattainment based on later years’ data, DEP would address 

nonattainment area SIP requirements, as necessary, for those areas at the time revised 

designations would become final. See Note 2 and the responses to Comments 6 through 

10, above. 

17. COMMENT: Adding control devices and emission limitations on electric generating 

units are a cost effective option to reduce NOX and attain and maintain the 2008 Ozone 

NAAQS. (2) 

RESPONSE: See Note 2 and the responses to Comments 6 through 10, above, for 

DEP’s position on the inclusion of emission limitations in i-SIPs. DEP will address 

 

13. See Delaware Ozone i-SIP approval Section (III)(C) – Response 1 on page 18647 and Virginia Ozone i-SIP 

approval Section (II)(B) – Response 1 on pages 17045-17046.

control strategies, cost-effectiveness and emission limitations through mechanisms that 

may include but are not limited to rulemaking, permit amendment or SIP revision, or a 

combination thereof, as necessary and appropriate, to meet CAA requirements for the 

ozone NAAQS. 

18. COMMENT: Pennsylvania should use the Ozone I-SIP process to address current 

ozone exceedances in Dauphin, Erie, Indiana, Mercer and York counties and prevent 

these counties from being redesignated as nonattainment for the 2008 Ozone NAAQS, or 

designated as nonattainment for the forthcoming Ozone NAAQS (referencing the current 

EPA review of the Ozone NAAQS, initiated in September 2008 – 

http://www.epa.gov/ttn/naaqs/standards/ozone/s_o3_2008_pd.html), by adding 

appropriate enforceable emission limits on NOX sources. (2) 

RESPONSE: See the responses to Comments 6 through 10 for DEP’s position on the 

inclusion of emission limitations in I-SIPs. See Comment 16 for DEP’s position on using 

the i-SIP to address NAAQS exceedances. 

19. COMMENT: Pennsylvania’s draft NO2 I-SIP fails to include enforceable one-hour NO2

emission limitations to ensure attainment and maintenance of the primary NO2 NAAQS. 

(2) 

RESPONSE: See Note 2 and the responses to Comments 6 through 10, above, for 

DEP’s position on the inclusion of emission limitations in i-SIPs. 

20. COMMENT: Pennsylvania’s draft PM2.5 I-SIP fails to include enforceable PM2.5

emission limitations, with annual averaging periods, that apply at all times, to ensure 

attainment and maintenance of the PM2.5 NAAQS. (2)

RESPONSE: See Note 2 and Responses to Comments 6 through 10, above, for DEP’s 

position on the inclusion of emission limitations in i-SIPs. DEP will evaluate 

requirements relating to emission limitations, including averaging periods, through 

mechanisms that may include but are not limited to rulemaking, permit amendment or 

SIP revision, or a combination thereof, as necessary and appropriate, to meet CAA 

requirements for the PM2.5 NAAQS. 

21. COMMENT: Pennsylvania’s draft PM2.5 I-SIP must require monitoring of PM2.5

emission limits on a continuous basis using a continuous emission monitor system or 

systems. (2) 

RESPONSE: DEP will evaluate monitoring requirements through mechanisms that may 

include but are not limited to rulemaking, permit amendment or SIP revision, or a

combination thereof, as necessary and appropriate, to meet CAA requirements for the 

PM2.5 NAAQS. See Note 2 and the responses to Comments 6 through 10, above. 

22. COMMENT: The statutory and regulatory sections that PaDEQ incorporated into its 

draft I-SIPs (2008 Ozone, 2010 NOX, 2010 SOX, and 2012 PM2.5) are insufficient to 

ensure compliance with the 2010 NO2, 2010 SO2, 2008 ozone, and 2012 PM2.5 NAAQS.

None of the rules and regulations cited in Pennsylvania's draft I-SIPs include 

appropriate emission limits for the 2010 NO2, 2010 SO2, 2008 ozone, and 2012 PM2.5

NAAQS, as shown by modeling and monitoring data. Pennsylvania must revise its I-SIP 

to include enforceable emission limits that address the exceedances shown by the monitor 

data and that otherwise address the 2010 NO2, 2010 SO2, 2008 Ozone, and 2012 PM2.5

NAAQS, and it must update its emission regulations to ensure that proper mass 

limitations and short term averaging periods are imposed on large sources of pollution. 

(2) 

RESPONSE: The i-SIP process is not the appropriate tool to address potential 

regulatory revisions for the purposes suggested by the commentator. See Note 2 and 

Responses to Comments 6 through 10, above, for DEP’s position on including emission 

limitations in the i-SIP. DEP will address mass limitations and averaging periods through 

mechanisms that may include but are not limited to rulemaking, permit amendment or 

SIP revision, or a combination thereof, as necessary and appropriate, to meet CAA 

requirements for the NAAQS cited in the comment. 

23. COMMENT: Pennsylvania’s draft I-SIPs (2008 Ozone, 2010 NOX, 2010 SOX, and 

2012 PM2.5) fail to address sources significantly contributing to nonattainment or 

interference with maintenance of the NAAQS in downwind states [relating to CAA 

Section 110(a)(2)(D)(i)(I)]. (2) 

RESPONSE: DEP has not addressed Section 110(a)(2)(D)(i)(I) in the final i-SIPs 

submitted to EPA for the 2008 Ozone, 2010 NOX, 2010 SOX, and 2012 PM2.5 NAAQS. 

DEP intends to submit a separate SIP revision in the future to address 

Section 110(a)(2)(D)(i)(I). 

24. COMMENT: Pennsylvania’s draft I-SIPs (2008 Ozone, 2010 NOX, 2010 SOX, and 

2012 PM2.5) fail to protect visibility in other states by relying on Pennsylvania’s Regional 

Haze SIP [relating to CAA Section 110(a)(2)(D)(i)(II)]. (2) 

RESPONSE: EPA issued a limited disapproval and limited approval of Pennsylvania’s 

Regional Haze SIP revision on June 7, 2012, and April 30, 2014, respectively 

(77 FR 33642 and 79 FR 24340). The limited disapproval resulted from Pennsylvania’s 

reliance on the Clean Air Interstate Rule (CAIR) to address regional emission transport. 

The limited disapproval included a Regional Haze Federal Implementation Plan (FIP) for 

Pennsylvania, which replaced reliance on CAIR with reliance on the Cross-State Air

Pollution Rule (CSAPR). The U.S. Court of Appeals vacated CSAPR in August 2012 

and ordered EPA to continue administering CAIR. EME Homer City Generation L.P. v 

EPA, 696 F.3d 7 (D.C. Cir. 2012), cert. granted 133 S.Ct. 2857 (2013). The Supreme 

Court of the United States on April 29, 2014, reversed the Court of Appeals’ judgment 

and remanded the case for further proceedings. Environmental Protection Agency v. 

EME Homer City Generation, L.P., 134 S. Ct. 1584 (2014). The commentator is 

incorrect that the April 2014 court decision reinstated CSAPR. Pennsylvania’s Regional 

Haze SIP, along with Pennsylvania’s SIP provisions to implement CAIR, adequately 

prevents sources in Pennsylvania from interfering with measures adopted by other states 

to protect visibility. If CSAPR is reinstated or if a new interstate transport rule is 

promulgated, DEP will address any new requirements under it, as necessary and 

appropriate.
