Text: 44 The cities and the district court rely in part on a passage in Delaney to conclude that in 1988 the Arizona SIP did not contain the Mass Transit Provisions. After listing the three nontransit measures that the EPA approved in 1988, the Delaney court noted that other measures, including expansion of mass transit, had been excluded. 898 F.2d at 691. The district court thought the mass transit measures excluded in 1988 were the Mass Transit Provisions. The district court incorrectly interpreted Delaney. The mass transit commitments excluded in 1988 were submitted by Arizona to the EPA in 1987 or 1988 and were in addition to the Mass Transit Provisions, which were already in the SIP. The exclusion of these mass transit requirements submitted in 1987 or 1988 did not mean that those already part of the SIP were no longer part.
