Texas Administrative Code › Title 30 - ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY › Part 1 - TEXAS COMMISSION ON ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY › Chapter 114 - CONTROL OF AIR POLLUTION FROM MOTOR VEHICLES › Subchapter G - TRANSPORTATION PLANNING › Section 114.260 - Transportation Conformity

Current through Reg. 49, No. 28; July 12, 2024
(a) Purpose. The
				  purpose of this section is to implement certain requirements set forth in 40
				  Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 93, Subpart A (relating to Conformity to
				  State or Federal Implementation Plans of Transportation Plans, Programs, and
				  Projects Developed, Funded, or Approved Under Title 23 United States Code (USC)
				  or the Federal Transit Laws), which are the regulations developed by the United
				  States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) under the Federal Clean Air Act
				  Amendments of 1990, §176(c)(4)(e). This section addresses the consultation
				  process and the written commitment requirements for control measures and
				  mitigation measures that are used to demonstrate and assure conformity of
				  transportation planning activities with the state implementation plan
				  (SIP).
(b) Applicability. This
				  section applies to transportation-related criteria pollutants for which an area
				  is designated nonattainment or is subject to a maintenance plan. The
				  transportation-related criteria pollutants are ozone, carbon monoxide, nitrogen
				  dioxide, particles with an aerodynamic diameter of ten micrometers (PM
				  10) and smaller, and particles with an aerodynamic
				  diameter less than or equal to a nominal 2.5 micrometers (PM
				  2.5). This section also applies to the precursors of
				  ozone, nitrogen dioxide, PM10, and
				  PM2.5 as required in
				  40

										93.125(c)
				  are adopted by reference.
(d)
				  Consultation. Under
				  40
				  CFR §93.105, regarding consultation, the
				  following procedures must be undertaken in nonattainment and maintenance areas
				  before making conformity determinations and before adopting applicable SIP
				  revisions.

(1) ensure that all
				  responsibilities required by subsection (c) of this section are
				  fulfilled;
(2) maintain, on a
				  rolling basis, complete and accurate records of all TCMs for at least five
				  years. TCM records shall be sufficient to accurately reflect the effectiveness
				  of the TCM program and shall include the following:
(A) the annual status of the implementation
				  of the TCM, including quantification of progress;
(B) an annual estimate of the funding and
				  other resources expended toward implementing the TCM, and a comparison of the
				  actual and projected expenditures;

				  reductions achieved from implementation of the TCM, and a comparison of the
				  actual and projected reductions; and
(D) any modifications to the TCM since the
				  last annual report and/or projected modifications for the next reporting period
				  to compensate for a shortfall in the implementation of the TCM or in the
				  associated emissions reductions; and
(3) make such records available to
				  representatives of the commission, the EPA, the Federal Highway Administration,
				  the Federal Transit Administration, the Texas Department of Transportation,

Current through Reg. 49, No. 28; July 12, 2024
Unless specifically defined in the TCAA or in the rules
						of the commission, the terms used by the commission have the meanings commonly
						ascribed to them in the field of air pollution control. In addition to the
						terms which are defined by the TCAA, the following words and terms, when used
						in this division, shall have the following meanings, unless the context clearly
						indicates otherwise.
(1) The
					 definitions found in Title 13, California Code of Regulations, Chapter 9,
					 §2431, concerning Definitions, as effective on November 18, 1999, are
					 hereby incorporated by reference.
(2) Non-road, large spark-ignition (LSI)
					 engine - Any engine that produces a gross horsepower (hp) of 25 hp or greater,
					 or is designed (e.g. through fueling, engine calibrations, valve timing, engine
					 speed modifications, etc.) to produce 25 hp or greater. For engine families
					 which have models at or greater than 25 hp, as well as models below 25 hp, only
					 the models at or above 25 hp are considered LSI engines. The engine operating
					 characteristics are significantly similar to the theoretical Otto combustion
					 cycle, with the primary means of controlling power output being the limit on
					 the amount of air that is throttled into the combustion chamber of the engine.
					 LSI engines or alternate fuel-powered LSI internal combustion engines are
					 designed for, but not limited to, powering forklift trucks, sweepers,
					 generators, industrial equipment, and other miscellaneous
					 applications.
(3) New non-road,
					 large spark-ignition (LSI) engine - Non-road, LSI model year 2004 and
					 subsequent engines, and all equipment and vehicles that use such an
					 engine.
