APPENDIX A 

Certifications 

Certification that RACT for 8-Hr Ozone NAAQS remains the same as those RACT determinations made 

for the I -Hr Ozone NAAQS (RACT for CTGs adopted prior to 2006 and approved in Vermont SIP) 

25 Certifications (or re-certifications) seeking Negative Declarations 

5 Certifications (on post 2005 CTGs) seeking Negative Declarations 
CERTIFICATION REGARDING EQUIVALENCY OF 8-HR Ozone Standard RACT 

To previously determined 1-HR Ozone Standard RACT on all existing applicable VT sources . 

I hereby certify that the State of Vermont Air Pollution Control Division has examined all previously 

established RACT determinations that were made in the Vermont SIP for purposes of complying with 

requirements for states in the Ozone Transport Region (OTR) to adopt RACT for applicable CTG 

categories, Major Stationary Sources of VOC, and Major Stationary Sources of NOx as directed by the 

Clean Air Act amendments of 1990. The examination has confirmed that the RACT level of control on 

the existing applicable sources of VOC and NOx in Vermont under the previous I-Hr ozone National 

Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) remains the same for the 8-Hr ozone NAAQS adopted on July 

18, 1997.
