## RULE Department of Envi ronmental Quality Office of the Secretary

Ambient Air Standards for Particulate Matter

(LAC 33:III.701, 703, and 711)(AQ288)
Under the authority of the Environmental Quality Act, R.S. 30:2001 et seq., and in accordance with the provisions of the Administrative Procedure Act, R.S. 49:950 et seq., the secretary has amended the Air regulations, LAC 33:III.701, 703, and 711 (Log #AQ288).

In 2006, the Environmental Protection Agency revised the National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) for particulate matter. The revised NAAQS address two categories of particle pollution: fine particles (PM 2.5 

## ), which are 2.5 micrometers in diameter and smaller; and inhalable coarse particles (PM 10 

## ), which are smaller than 10 micrometers. This Rule updates the Louisiana air quality regulations to include the revised particle standards. The EPA strengthened the 24-hour PM 2.5 

## standard from the 1997 standard of 65 micrograms per cubic meter to 35 micrograms per cubic meter, and retained the current annual PM 2.5 

## standard of 15 micrograms per cubic meter. For inhalable coarse particles, EP A retained the existing national 24-hour PM 10 

## standard of 150 micrograms per cubic meter and revoked the annual PM 10 

## standard. The basis and rationale for this Rule are to update the Louisiana air quality regulations to include the revised NAAQS for particulate matter to ensure continued protection of the environment and human health and welfare. This Rule meets an exception listed in R.S. 30:2019(D)(2) and R.S. 49:953(G)(3); therefore, no report regarding environmental/health benefits and social/economic costs is required. Title 33 ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY Part III. Air Chapter 7. Ambient Air Quality §701. Purpose

A. ... B. Particulate Matter. The purpose of this Chapter is to maintain concentrations of particulate matter in the ambient air at levels which will not cause damage or injury to plant or animal life. In addition to health considerations, attainment of the standards will result in economic and aesthetic benefits such as increased visibility and reduced soiling and corrosion.

amendments.
I'll ask that each person commenting come up
and sit at the front table and begin by stating his

or her name and affiliation for the record.
The next amendment is designated by the Log
Number AQ288.

In 2006, the Environmental Protection Agency
revised the National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) for particulate matter. The revised NAAQS
address two categories of particle pollution:
fine particles (designated PM2.5), which are 2.5
micrometers in diameter and smaller; and inhalable

coarse particles (designated PM10), which are
smaller than 20 micrometers. This rule updates the
Louisiana air quality regulations to include the
revised particle standards. The EPA strengthened
the 24-hour PM2.5 standard from the 1997 standard
of 65 micrograms per cubic meter to 35 micrograms

per cubic meter and retained the current annual

PM2.5 standard of 15 micrograms per cubic meter.
For inhalable course particles, EPA retained the existing national 24-hour PM10 standard of 150 micrograms per cubic meter and revoked the annual

## NOTICE OF INTENT Department of Envi ronmental Quality Office of the Secretary

Ambient Air Standards for Particulate Matter

(LAC 33:III.701, 703, and 711)(AQ288)
Under the authority of the Environmental Quality Act, R.S. 30:2001 et seq., and in accordance with the provisions of the Administrative Procedure Act, R.S. 49:950 et seq., the secretary gives notice that rulemaking procedures have been initiated to amend the Air regulations, LAC 33:III.701, 703, and 711 (Log #AQ288).

In 2006, the Environmental Protection Agency revised the National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) for particulate matter. The revised NAAQS address two categories of particle pollution: fine particles (PM 2.5 

## ), which are 2.5 micrometers in diameter and smaller; and inhalable coarse particles (PM 10 

## ), which are smaller than 10 micrometers. This Rule updates the Louisiana air quality regulations to include the revised particle standards. The EPA strengthened the 24-hour PM 2.5 

## standard from the 1997Louisiana Register Vol. 33, No. 12 December 2007 

## 2812 standard of 65 micrograms per cubic meter to 35 micrograms per cubic meter, and retained the current annual PM 2.5 

## standard of 15 micrograms per cubic meter. For inhalable coarse particles, EP A retained the existing national 24-hour PM 10 

## standard of 150 micrograms per cubic meter and revoked the annual PM 10 

## standard. The basis and rationale for this Rule are to update the Louisiana air quality regulations to include the revised NAAQS for particulate matter to ensure continued protection of the environment and human health and welfare. This proposed Rule meets an exception listed in R.S. 30:2019(D)(2) and R.S. 49:953(G)(3); therefore, no report regarding environmental/health benefits and social/economic costs is required. Title 33 ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY Part III. Air Chapter 7. Ambient Air Quality §701. Purpose

A. ... B. Particulate Matter. The purpose of this Chapter is to maintain concentrations of particulate matter in the ambient air at levels which will not cause damage or injury to plant or animal life. In addition to health considerations, attainment of the standards will result in economic and aesthetic benefits such as increased visibility and reduced soiling and corrosion.

## NOTICE OF INTENT Department of Envi ronmental Quality Office of the Secretary
National Source Tracking System Reporting Dates (LAC 33:XV.493)(RP047ft)
Under the authority of the Environmental Quality Act, R.S. 30:2001 et seq., and in accordance with the provisions of the Administrative Procedure Act, R.S. 49:950 et seq., the secretary gives notice that rulemaking procedures have been initiated to amend the Radiation Protection regulations, LAC 33:XV.493 (Log #RP047ft).

This proposed Rule is identical to federal regulations found in 10 CFR 20.2207, which are applicable in Louisiana. For more information regarding the federal requirement, contact the Regulation Development Section at (225) 219-3550 or Box 4302, Baton Rouge, LA 70821-4302. No fiscal or economic impact will result from the proposed Rule. This Rule will be promulgated in accordance with the procedures in R.S. 49:953(F)(3) and (4).

This Rule will update the state radiation regulations to coincide with a change in the federal regulations. As part of the National Source Tracking System (NSTS), reporting requirements for nationally track ed sources are listed in 10 CFR 20.2207. This Rule changes the compliance dates for reporting transactions involving Category 1 and Category 2 sources from November 15, 2007 and November 30, 2007, respectively, both to January 31, 2009. The National Source Tracking System rule requires licensees to report information on the manufacture, transfer, receipt, disassembly, and disposal of nationally tracked sources. This information will be entered into a computerized data base. The compliance dates for licensees to report initial source inventories was November 15, 2007, for Category 1 sources and November 30, 2007, for Category 2 sources. These were also the dates to start reporting source transactions for entry into the system. The NRC anticipated that system development and testing would be complete and the National Source Tracking System would be operational by November 2007. However, system development has taken longer than anticipated, and the system will not be ready to accept data by November 2007 . Therefore, the NRC is revising the compliance dates for which reporting is to start. The requirements for both Category 1 and 2 nationally tracked sources will now be implemented by January 31, 2009. This means that by th is date any licensee that possesses a Category 1 or 2 level source must have reported its initial inventory and must begin reporting all transactions involving Category 1 and 2 sources to the National Source Tracking System. Requirements regarding compatibility are published under the Agreement State program. This change to the state regulations is needed to comply with the program. The basis and rationale for this Rule are to mirror the federal regulations and maintain an adequate Agreement State program. This proposed Rule meets an exception listed in R.S. 30:2019(D)(2) and R.S. 49:953(G)(3); therefore, no report regarding environmental/health benefits and social/economic costs is required. Title 33 ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY Part XV. Radiation Protection Chapter 4. Standards for Protection against Radiation Subchapter J. Reports §493. Reports of Transactions Involving Nationally Tracked Sources A. - H. ... I. Each licensee who possesses Category 1 nationally tracked sources shall report the initial inventory of the licensee’s Category 1 nationally tracked sources to the national source tracking system by January 31, 2009. Each licensee who possesses Category 2 nationally tracked sources shall report the initial inventory of the licensee’s Category 2 nationally tracked sources to the national source tracking system by January 31, 2009. The information may be submitted by using any of the methods specified in Paragraphs G.1-4 of this Sect ion. The initial inventory report must include the following information: 1. - 6. ...

FISCAL AND ECONOMIC IMPACT STATEMENT FOR ADMINISTRATIVE RULES RULE TITLE: Interest Rates—2008

I. ESTIMATED IMPLEMENTATION COSTS (SAVINGS) TO STATE OR LOCAL GOVERNMENT UNITS (Summary) There are no estimated implementation costs or savings to state or local governmental units. This rulemaking places in rule the actual earnings realized by START account owners who invested in the Louisiana Principal Protection investment option and the actual earnings realized on the investment of Earnings Enhancements. This increase in START funds belongs to the account owner (it is not state general fund money), and no expenditure of state general funds is required. This rulemaking will also authorize the use of START funds to purchase computer technology. Since these are not state funds, there is no cost to the state due to this rulemaking. II. ESTIMATED EFFECT ON REVENUE COLLECTIONS OF STATE OR LOCAL GOVERNMENTAL UNITS (Summary) Revenue collections of state and local governments will not be affected by the proposed changes. III. ESTIMATED COSTS AND/OR ECONOMIC BENEFITS TO DIRECTLY AFFECTED PERSONS OR NONGOVERNMENTAL GROUPS (Summary) These changes adopt the actual interest rates for deposits made to the START Louisiana Principal Protection investment option and earnings enhancements for the year ending December 31, 2008. In addition, Louisiana families will benefit from the amendment that allows the purchase of computers, computer software, and computer equipment for calendar years 2009 and 2010 with START Section 529 tax free funds. IV. ESTIMATED EFFECT ON COMPETITION AND EMPLOYMENT (Summary) There are no anticipated effects on competition and employment resulting from these measures.
