Subject: State Implementation Plan (SIP) Revision for Total Suspended Particulate Matter (TSP) 

Dear Ms. Hedman: 

The Wisconsin Department ofNatural Resources (WDNR) hereby requests that the U.S. EPA remove Sections 

NR 404.02(11), NR 404.04(3), and NR 484.04(3), Wis. Adm. Code, from the state's air quality SIP. This request 

is based on a rule change made by the Wisconsin Natural Resources Board (NRB), effective December 1, 2011, to 

repeal the state's TSP air quality standard (Board Order AM-23-07B). The WDNR pursued the TSP rule change 

to align the state's air quality standards with the current National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS). The 

Wisconsin NRB order is included as an attachment to this letter for your reference. 

The WDNR has the legal authority under Wisconsin law to adopt and implement the requested SIP revisions. Section 

285.11 ( 6), Wis. Stats., authorizes the WDNR to develop and revise a SIP for prevention, abatement, and control of air 

pollution. The WDNR conducted a public hearing on June 10,2013 regarding this SIP submittal. A copy of the 

public hearing notice is included as an attachment. In addition, a summary of comments received during the 

WDNR's public comment process is included as an attachment. 

In accordance with the April 6, 2011 McCabe Memo, one paper copy of the SIP documents is enclosed. In addition, 

an electronic copy of these documents is provided on an enclosed CD. If you have any questions regarding this 

submittal, please contact Joseph Hoch at (608) 267-7543 or Ralph Patterson at (608) 267-7546. 

Sincerely, 

Bart ~ Sponseller, Director

ON RECYCLED PAPER 
ORDER OF THE STATE OF WISCONSIN NATURAL RESOURCES BOARD 

REPEALING RULES 

The Wisconsin Natural Resources Board adopts an order to repeal NR 404.02 (11), 404.04 (3) and 

484.04 (3) relating to the 24-hour secondary ambient air quality standard for particulate matter 

measured as total suspended particulates (TSP) and affecting small business. 

AM-23-07B 

Analysis Prepared by the Department of Natural Resources 

1. Statute interpreted: Section 285.11 (1) and (6), Wis. Stats. 

2. Statutory authority: Sections 227.11 (2) (a) and 285.11 (1) and (6), Wis. Stats. 

3. Explanation of agency authority: Section 227.11 (2) (a), Wis. Stats., gives state agencies general 

rule-making authority. Section 285.11 (1 ), Wis. Stats., gives the Department the authority to promulgate 

rules implementing and consistent with ch. 285, Wis. Stats. Section 285.11 (6), Wis. Stats., requires the 

Department to develop a plan for the prevention, abatement and control of air pollution. 

4. Related statute or rule: There are no related statutes that are not identified above. 

5. Plain language analysis: Currently, the Department has a secondary 24-hour ambient air quality 

standard for particulate matter measured as TSP (s. NR 404.04 (3), Wis. Adm. Code). Adopting this 

Order would satisfy the original intent of AM-23-07, originally presented to the Board on August 15, 

2007 for public hearing approval, which also proposed repeal of the TSP standard. The Department held 

a public hearing on AM-23-07 in Madison on October 12, 2007. 

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) established air quality standards for particulate matter 

in 1971. Particulate matter was originally measured as TSP, which is particulate up to 100 micrometers 

in diameter. Then in 1987, the U.S. EPA changed the indicator to coarse particulate matter (PM10), which 

is particulate up to 10 micrometers in diameter. The federal PM10 air quality standards replaced the 

federal TSP air quality standards. Particulate matter larger than 10 micrometers generally is not inhaled 

into the lungs and thus PM10 was found to adequately protect human health. In 1997, the U.S. EPA 

adopted air quality standards for fine particulate matter (PM25), which is particulate up to 2.5 micrometers 

in diameter. PM2.5 can remain suspended in the air longer and penetrate deeply into the lungs easier than 

PM10• Currently, there are federal air quality standards for both PM25 and PM10• 

Repeal of the TSP standard was previously considered by the Board in 1989 and 2008 (Board Orders 

AM-22-88 and AM-23-07). In 1989, the Board was concerned that new federal air quality standards for 

PM10 did not provide adequate public welfare protection from potential nuisance concerns, such as 

fugitive dust and adopted a resolution to retain the TSP standard. Currently, large size particulate matter 

(i.e., TSP) is regulated under the fugitive dust rule (s. NR 415.04, Wis. Adm. Code) and the Department 

has adopted more stringent PM10 and PM25 standards for smaller sized particulate matter. On April23, 

2008, the Board requested that the Department should not move too quickly regarding changes to the TSP 

standard. On April27, 2011, the Wisconsin Joint Committee for Review of Administrative Rules 

(JCRAR) adopted a motion under s. 227.26 (2) (d), Wis. Stats., suspending s. NR 404.04 (3), Wis. Adm. 

Code (TSP standard). 

1 
Repeal of the TSP standard, and an associated definition and monitoring requirements, will allow the 

Department and affected industry to focus resources on smaller particulates, which have been identified 

as being more harmful than TSP to human health. Additionally, repealing the TSP standard would make 

the state.' s air quality standards consistent with the federal air quality standards. This repeal would not 

have an impact on the fugitive dust rule. 

6. Summary of, and comparison with, existing or proposed federal regulation: Federal National 

Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) are contained in Title 40, Part 50 ofthe Code of Federal 

Regulations ( 40 CFR Part 50). The purpose of these proposed rule revisions is to make the state ambient 

air quality standards for particulate matter in ch. NR 404, Wis. Adm. Code, consistent with the 

corresponding federal NAAQS. 

7. Comparison with similar rules in adjacent states (lllinois, Iowa, Michigan and Minnesota): These 

proposed rule revisions make Wisconsin's ambient air quality standards fully consistent with federal 

NAAQS, which are effective and enforced throughout the United States. Iowa and Michigan both 

reference the federal NAAQS for their respective state air quality standards. illinois repealed their TSP 

standard on May 15, 1992 (Section 243.121, illinois Adm. Code). Minnesota currently maintains their 

TSP standard (Section 7009.0080, Minnesota Adm. Rules). 

8. Summary of factual data and analytical methodologies used and how any related findings 

support the regulatory approach chosen: The U.S. EPA, through its Clean Air Scientific Advisory 

Committee (CASAC), has conducted exhaustive reviews and assessments on the health science of air 

pollution impacts to human health and welfare. This research has yielded NAAQS that are based upon 

sound health science designed to protect public health and welfare. The Department is accepting this 

extensive federal research as adequate factual data and analytical methodologies. 

9. Analysis and supporting documents used to determine the effect on small business or in 

preparation of an economic impact report: The Department relies on the analysis used by the U.S. 

EPA to support the NAAQS to develop and promulgate changes to the state's air quality standards. 

10. Effect on small business (initial regulatory flexibility analysis): In repealing the TSP air quality 

standard, the air permitting process may be shortened since the modeling and analysis for particulate 

matter impacts would focus solely on emissions ofPM10 and PM25 . Also, this repeal may reduce the cost 

of installing emission controls for particulate matter. Consequently, this rule revision would have a direct 

positive effect on businesses, including those defined as small business.

AMBIENT AIR QUALITY

NR 404.01 Applicability; purpose.

NR 404.02 Definitions.

NR 404.03 Air quality control regions.

NR 404.04 Ambient air quality standards.

NR 404.05 Ambient air increments.

NR 404.06 Measurement of ambient air quality.

NR 404.07 Interpretation of air quality data with respect to air standards.

NR 404.08 Guidelines for application of air standards.

Note: Chapter NR 155 as it existed on March 31, 1972 was repealed and a new

chapter NR 155 was created, Register, March, 1972, No. 195, effective April 1, 1972.

Chapter NR 155 was renumbered chapter NR 404, Register, July, 1985.

Note: Air standards are definitions of the characteristics of ambient air quality

which, in terms of present day knowledge, need to be maintained in order to protect the public health and welfare and our environment from adverse effects of air

pollution.

The purpose of air standards should be viewed as goals or objectives to be

achieved by these and other rules of the department, by regional implementation

plans, and by enforcement programs of both state and local governments as population, industrial activity and land use changes.

The standards are meaningful for pollution control when applied to achieve and

maintain desired air quality as expressed by the standards.

Because of variation in population, transportation, and industrial densities, in

addition to variation in terrain and meteorology, equal air quality may not be achieved

throughout a region or area.

These standards conform to national ambient air quality standards. They are subject to review as knowledge of the effects of air pollution on health, plant and animal

life, property, visibility, and our environment increases.

These standards are promulgated pursuant to ch. 285, Stats., which directs the

department of natural resources to undertake a comprehensive program to manage

and protect the state’s air resources. These rules are one part of that program.

NR 404.01 Applicability; purpose. (1) APPLICABILITY.

The air standards of this chapter apply to the entire state without

exception. The ambient air increments of this chapter apply to all

attainment areas of the state.

(2) PURPOSE. This chapter is adopted under ss. 285.11, 285.13

and 285.21, Stats., to establish geographic air regions, air standards and ambient air increments, to specify the methods to be

used to measure air quality and to interpret air quality data and to

establish guidelines for the application of air standards.

NR 404.06 Measurement of ambient air quality.

(1) APPLICABILITY. (a) The department and any person conducting ambient air quality monitoring on its behalf shall use only reference or equivalent methods as specified in sub. (2) or (3) for all

ambient air quality monitoring for any air contaminant identified

in s. NR 404.04. The ambient monitoring shall conform with the

department’s guidebooks, plans and procedures for air monitoring

quality assurance.

(b) Any person required by the department to conduct ambient

air quality monitoring shall use only reference or equivalent methods for sampling and analysis as specified in sub. (2) or (3) and

shall comply with quality assurance and quality control procedures and the data reporting format which are specified and

approved by the department for the collection, analysis, processing and reporting of ambient air quality monitoring data.

(c) Any person who voluntarily conducts ambient air quality

monitoring in Wisconsin may request the department to determine

that the data being collected are comparable to the air quality data

collected under par. (a) or (b). The department may determine that

the data are comparable if the voluntary ambient air quality monitoring and the data meet the requirements specified in par. (b).

(d) The department may determine that air quality data submitted to the department for purposes of demonstrating compliance with existing regulations under chs. NR 400 to 499 or in

support of a permit or permit application are unacceptable if such

monitoring was not conducted in compliance with pars. (a) to (c).

(2) REFERENCE METHODS. Ambient air quality monitoring

which utilizes a reference monitoring method shall use monitoring methods which conform to the federal reference methods

which are specified in 40 CFR part 50, Appendices A to N, incorporated by reference in s. NR 484.04 (2), or which have been so

designated by the department.

(3) EQUIVALENT METHODS. (a) Ambient air quality monitoring

which utilizes an equivalent monitoring method shall use monitoring methods which have been published by the department

under sub. (4) (a).

(b) The department may list a monitoring method as an equivalent method if the department determines that the method satisfies

the same requirements for a federal equivalent method as specified in 40 CFR part 53, incorporated by reference in s. NR 484.03.

(c) The department shall maintain a list of equivalent methods

and shall send a copy of the list to any person upon request. A current copy of the list shall be available for inspection or copying at

the department’s headquarters office.

Note: The department’s headquarters office is located at 101 South Webster Street,

Madison, Wisconsin. Mail requests should be addressed to the Department of Natural

Resources, Bureau of Air Management, PO Box 7921, Madison WI 53707.

(4) AIR QUALITY PUBLICATIONS. The department shall publish

documents relating to air quality or to air monitoring, including

the following:

(a) The department shall publish or revise a list of equivalent

monitoring methods as specified in sub. (3).

(b) The department shall publish, revise and maintain quality

assurance plans and guidebooks which describe the activities and

procedures of the quality assurance and quality control systems.

(c) The department shall publish reports on air quality and

related information and data.

NR 404.08 Guidelines for application of air standards. (1) LIMITATIONS ON LOCAL PROGRAMS. No local programs may grant variances or construction or operation permits in

conflict with the implementation plan for that region.

(2) MORE RESTRICTIVE LIMITS. Any person may be required to

reduce emissions below limits established in an implementation

plan or by air pollution control rules where emissions cause or

substantially contribute to exceeding an air standard in a localized

area. In this case, appropriate special orders, which are not general in application, may be issued.

(3) FUELS AND RAW MATERIALS. The department may prescribe

characteristics of fuels and raw materials for existing and planned

facilities in order to assure attainment or maintenance of an air

standard, to prevent the degradation of air quality or to prevent air

pollution.

Wisconsin State Implementation Plan (SIP) Revision for Total Suspended 

Particulate Matter (TSP)- Summary and Response to Public Comments for SIP 

Revision 

The Wisconsin Department ofNatural Resources (WDNR) is submitting a SIP revision to 

incorporate a rule revision that repealed the state's total suspended particulate (TSP) air 

quality standard (effective on December 1, 2011 ). The WDNR pursued this rule change 

to align the state's air quality standards, which can be found in NR 404, Wis. Adm. Code, 

with the federal National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS). The Wisconsin 

Natural Resources Board (NRB) adopted this rule change on June 22, 2011. The WDNR 

proposed this SIP revision for public comment on May 9, 2013. The WDNR received 

comments on the proposed SIP revision from several Wisconsin citizens. This document 

comprises the WDNR's summary and response to the comments received. 

Comment 1: The McDonough family (Christine, Gerald and Caroline) commented that 

they are for anything that improves environmental protection and against anything that 

weakens it. They are against repealing the TSP air quality standards and argue that just 

because EPA did it does not mean that Wisconsin should do so as well. 

Comment 2: Edward Kuharski commented that he is against repealing the TSP air quality 

standards. Mr. Kuharski argues that the state rules should error on the side of favoring 

progress and health, and disputes that repealing the TSP air quality standards - while 

keeping the coarse particulate matter (PM10) and fine PM (PM2.5) air quality standards in 

place- adequately protects human health. 

Response to comments: As noted in the Wisconsin NRB Board Order AM-23-07B, the 

federal PM10 air quality standards replaced the federal TSP air quality standards in 1987. 

Particulate matter larger than 10 micrometers is generally not inhaled into the lungs, and 

thus PM10 was found by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to adequately 

protect human health. Repeal of the TSP standard makes the state's air quality standards 

consistent with the federal air quality standards, and large size particulate matter (i.e., 

TSP) is still addressed under the fugitive dust rule (s. NR 415.04, Wis. Adm. Code). 
Wisconsin State Implementation Plan (SIP) Revision for Total Suspended 

Particulate Matter (TSP) - Summary and Response to Public Comments for Rule 

Change 

A public hearing was held in Madison on October 12, 2007. The only individual from the 

general public present at the hearing did not provide any comment on the proposed rules. 

The only written public comments received on the original Order AM-23-07 were from 

two trade organizations that represent certain Wisconsin business sectors whose members 

are subject to DNR air pollution requirements. These trade organizations are 1) the 

Wisconsin Paper Council (WPC), which currently represents 21 separate entities in the 

pulp, paper and allied industry, and 2) Wisconsin Manufacturers and Commerce (WMC) 

which currently represents nearly 4,000 companies in the state. Both the WPC and WMC 

expressed full support of the proposed rule revisions in Order AM-23-07. 

The Legislative Council Rules Clearinghouse (LCRC) submitted a report on Order AM23-07 (Clearinghouse Rule# 07-082) on September 17, 2007. The only LCRC comment 

provided on this rules package was for "clarity, grammar, punctuation and use of plain 

language". LCRC commented that two definitions repealed in the original Order AM-23-

07 (i.e., "total suspended particulates" and "suspended particulate matter") are used in ss. 

NR 404.04(3) ("Particulate Matter: Secondary Standard") and NR 404.04(7), Wis. Adm. 

Code (airborne lead), respectively. 

As noted in Section 1, the Department has decided to bifurcate the original Order AM23-07. The current version (Order AM-23-07 A) is moving forward at this time without a 

proposal to repeal the ambient 24 hour air quality standard for TSP [NR 404.04(3), Wis 

Adm. Code], its definitions, as well its monitoring methods incorporated by reference. 

With this action, the Department has made moot the LCRC concerns pertaining to the 

continued use of ss. NR 404.04(3) and NR 404.04(7), Wis. Adm. Code. 

No further changes to the updated Order AM-23-07 A were necessary in response to the 

LCRC comment.

USEPA Question USEPA Requirement State Response 

What sources are being 

regulated? Clear discussion 

Sources emitting PM. These sources are still 

subject to PM10 and PM2.5, consistent with the 

NAAQS. 

What are criteria for 

exemption? Clear discussion Not applicable. 

Is calculation procedure 

for exemption clearly 

specified? 

Supply example calculation or 

clear explanation of how to 

determine exemption (line by 

line, etc.) 

Not applicable. 

Is emission inventory 

listed in the background 

document of the 

attainment demonstration? 

Inventory including allowable 

and actual emissions in source 

category should be included, for 

enforcement purposes and 

independent of any Clean Air 

Act requirements, in the 

attainment demonstration if 

such data is necessary for 

determining baselines in 

regulations. 

Not applicable. 

Is the averaging time(s) 

used in the rule different 

from that of the ambient 

standard? 

The averaging time in the rule 

must be consistent with 

protecting the ambient standard 

in question. Normally, it should 

be equal to or shorter than the 

time associated with the 

standard. Longer term 

averaging is available only in 

limited instances provided that 

the ambient standard is not 

compromised. 

Not applicable. 

What are the units of 

compliance (lbs VOC per 

gallon of solids applied 

less water, grains per 

standard cubic foot?) 

Clearly stated in the rule. Not applicable.

USEPA Question USEPA Requirement State Response 

Is bubbling or averaging 

of any type allowed? If 

yes, state criteria. Could a 

USEPA inspector 

independently determine 

if the criteria were met?? 

Does USEPA have to 

approve each case? 

Explicit description of how 

averaging, bubbling, or 

equivalency is to be determined. 

VOC equivalency must be on a 

“solids applied” basis. Any 

method must be independently 

reproducible. Provision must 

be explicit as to whether 

USEPA case-by-case approval 

is required. If provision 

intended to be “generic” then 

USEPA bubble policy must be 

met. 

Not applicable. 

If there is a redesignation, 

will this change the 

emission limitations? If 

yes, which ones and how? 

Regulation may not 

automatically allow for self 

nullification upon redesignation 

of area to attainment. New 

maintenance demonstration 

required to order to drop 

regulation. 

Not applicable. 

Compliance Dates 

USEPA Question USEPA Requirement State Response 

What is the compliance 

date? 

The compliance date must not 

be later than the approved or 

about to be approved date of 

attainment unless emission 

reductions are not necessary for 

attainment. In some cases, it 

will be necessary for the 

regulation to specify dates in 

compliance schedules that are 

required to be submitted by 

source to state. 

December 1, 2011 

What is the attainment 

date? Clearly defined. Not applicable. 

Specificity of Conduct 

USEPA Question USEPA Requirement State Response
