## Abstract

The EPA is approving revisions to the Texas State Implementation Plan (SIP). The revisions concern two separate actions. First, we are approving revisions to the Texas Nitrogen Oxides (NO<INF>X</INF>) rules for electric generating facilities in East and Central Texas. These new limits for electric generating facilities in East and Central Texas will contribute to attainment of the 1-hour ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) in the Houston/ Galveston (H/GA), Dallas/Fort Worth (D/FW), and Beaumont/Port Arthur (B/PA) 1-hour ozone nonattainment areas. They will also contribute to continued maintenance of the standard in the eastern half of Texas and will strengthen the existing Texas SIP. Second, we are approving revisions to the Texas NO<INF>X</INF> rules for major stationary sources in the D/FW 1-hour ozone nonattainment area. These new limits for stationary sources will contribute to attainment of the 1-hour ozone standard in the D/FW nonattainment area. The EPA is approving these revisions to regulate emissions of NO<INF>X</INF> as meeting the requirements of the Federal Clean Air Act (the Act).
