Abstract
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is taking final action to approve Rule 1325, Federal PM<INF>2.5</INF> New Source Review Program, into the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) portion of the California State Implementation Plan (SIP). This action was proposed in the Federal Register on February 17, 2015. Rule 1325 governs the issuance of permits for major stationary sources and major modifications located in areas designated as nonattainment for the PM<INF>2.5</INF> NAAQS to meet Clean Air Act Part D requirements for emissions of PM<INF>2.5</INF> and PM<INF>2.5</INF> precursors. EPA is taking this action under the Clean Air Act obligation to take action on State submittals for inclusion in state implementation plans. The intended effect is to update the SIP with nonattainment new source review (NNSR) rules for major stationary sources and major modifications emitting PM<INF>2.5</INF> and certain PM<INF>2.5</INF> precursors.
