Conservation (NYS DEC) will hold a legislative Public Hearing on three separate proposals: 1. A proposed State Implementation Plan (SIP) revision demonstrating that NewYork State air quality plans meet the requirements of section 11 O(a)(2)(D)(i) ofthe Clean AirAct (eM) related to interstate transport and providing an "infrastructure" assessment demonstrating that New York's air program addresses basic SIP requirements related to the attainment of new or revised National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NMQS) pursuantto sections 11 0(a)(1) and (2) ofthe CM. NewYork is required to submit te>the United States Environmental Protection Agency (US. EPA) a SIP revision demonstrating that the interstate transport of particulate matter emitted in NewYork that is equal to or less than 2.5 microns in size (PM2.5) does not contribute significantly to n,?nattainment in, or interfere with maintenance by, any other state with respect to any such primary or secondary NMQS, or interfere with measures required to be included in the applicable implementation plan for any other state to prevent significant deterioration of air quality orto protect visibility in accordance with section 11 O(a)(2)(D)(i). Also included in this proposal is a demonstration

that, pursuant to sections 11 O(a)(1) and (2), the NewYork air program includes the basic requirements such as emission inventories, monitoring and modeling to assure attainment, maintenance and enforcement ofthe standards. The "infrastructure" assessment documenting that NewYork State's program has the legal and administrative authority and resources to meetthe requirements ofthe CM must also be submitted to the US EPA. 2'. A proposed revision to the alert levels in the "Air Pollution Episode Communication Handbook" which is used by NYS DEC to implement 6 NYCRR Part 207, Control Measures ForAir Pollution Episode, and to update the state and local emergency contacts for air pollution episodes. These alert levels reflect the PM 2.5 Significant Harm Levels (SHLs) proposed by EPAon January 15, 2009 as well as values for other criteria pollutants, and are intended to address the requirements of CM section 11 0(a)(2)(G), Emergency Powers and Contingency Plans, as they apply to New York State. 3. A proposed revision to the SIP for Regional Haze. This proposed SIP revision, entitled "NewYork State Implementation Plan for Regional Haze" meets the requirements of section 169Aofthe eM, which sets

forth a national goal for visibility which is the "prevention ofany future, and the remedying of any 'existing, impairment ofvisibility in mandatory Class I Federal areas which impairment results from manmade air pollution." This SIP revision demonstrates how reductions in the emissions of visibility impairing pollutants in New Yorkwill result in a decrease in the degree ofvisibility impairment in federal Class I areas in the northeastern United States. Th,is revision satisfies the requirements of the federal haze program found in 40 CFR Section 51.308 by evaluating the current and future projected inventory of'sources, assessing the progress necessaryto reduce emissions to meetthe interim 2018 goal, providing for consultation with other states, tribes and FLMs in**establis~ing** progress goals, and establishing a strategy bywhich New York's share of regional emission reductions will be implemented. This strategywas arrived atthrough a consultation process with other states and tribes, federal .land managers (FLMs) and the US EPA with which the State of NewYork agrees and commits to implement as described in this document. As required underthe Regional Haze program, FLMs, which include reoresentatives ofthe USDA Forest

Service, the National Park Service and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, were provided a 60 day period in which to review NewYork State's draft Regional Haze SIP. A summary ofthe FLM comments is as follows:

• The FLMs note that NewYork State has notfinalized its BestAvailable RetrofitTechnology (BART) rulemaking. BART control requirements are an element ofthe regional haze program, and NewYork must have a rule in place to require these controls to be implemented. The draft SIP, therefore, does not contain a list of source-specific controls and emission limits that would have resulted from the application of BART requirements.

• NewYork's BART rule would allow "exemption modeling" through which some potential BART sources can avoid BART because they are too small ortheir emissions do not "caus'e or contribute" to visibility impairment. The FLMs are underthe impression that NewYork agreed notto allow exemption modeling.

• During NewYork's BART rule promulgation, comments on the threshold -bywhich a source may be shown to "cause or contribute" to visibility impairment in Class I areas will be solicited. Withoutthe threshold being established now, the FLMs are concerned that the final list of BART

sources cannot be identified.

• The FLMs are concerned that rulemaking delays will keep N'ewYork from meeting its 2008 - 2013 (Le., the 5-year progress report) deadline.

• The FLMs question how proposed emission controls were derived for NewYork's share of MANE-VU's "top 167" control strategywhen BART determinations have yetto be conducted.

• The FLMs believe fuel sulfur limits similarto the low sulfurfuel oil strategy which NewYork is planning to add to 6 NYCRR Part 225 in 2012 should be considered**whil~** conducting BART determinations.

• The FLMs want a disclaimer added to the SIP acknowl.edging thatthe FLMs will be provided

NYS DEC proposes to amend Part 218, Emission Standards for MotorVehicles and MotorVehicle Engines, and amend Part 200, General Provisions. The proposed amendments would simplify the existing zero emission vehicle (lEV) program, increase compliance flexibility, and create incentives for new lEV technologywhile maintaining the technology forcing nature ofthe current program. The lEV regulations take effectfor all 2009 and subsequent model year passenger cars and light-duty trucks. NYS DEC is also proposing to adopt California's experimental permit procedures for on-road motorvehicles. This proposal would enable NYS DEC to issue anti-tampering exemptionsfor experimental pollution control devices being tested on vehicles in New York State.
