I spoke with Bob and he suggests that we make the following revision to the first paragraph and delete the later reference     

Sections 108 and 109 of the Clean Air Act (CAA) govern the establishment, review, and revision, as appropriate, of the national ambient air quality standards (NAAQS) to protect public health and welfare. The CAA requires periodic review of the air quality criteria  -  the science upon which the standards are based  -  and the standards themselves. This proposed rulemaking is being done pursuant to these statutory requirements. The schedule for this proposed rule is set out in a court order.
