Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans; New York's Reasonable Further Progress Plans, Transportation Conformity Budgets, Reasonably Available Control Measure Analysis and 1-hour Ozone Attainment Demonstration State Implementation Plan

EPA is approving New York State Implementation Plan revisions involving the 1-hour Ozone Plan which is intended to meet several Clean Air Act requirements for the New York portion of the New York-Northern New Jersey-Long Island nonattainment area. These requirements include the Reasonable Further Progress Plans, projection year inventories and transportation conformity budgets for milestone years 2002, 2005 and 2007, ozone contingency measures, Reasonably Available Control Measure Analysis, 1-hour Ozone Attainment Demonstration and enforceable commitments. The intended effect of this action is to approve programs required by the Clean Air Act which will result in emission reductions that will help achieve attainment of the 1-hour national ambient air quality standard for ozone in the New York-Northern New Jersey-Long Island nonattainment area.
