Abstract
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is finalizing a clean data determination (CDD) for the 2006 24-hour fine particulate matter (PM<INF>2.5</INF>) Provo, Utah (UT) nonattainment area (NAA). The determination was based upon quality-assured, quality-controlled and certified ambient air monitoring data for the period 2015-2017; available in the EPA's Air Quality System (AQS) database, showing the area has monitored attainment of the 2006 24-hour PM<INF>2.5</INF> National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS). Based on this determination that the Provo, UT NAA is currently attaining the 24-hour PM<INF>2.5</INF> NAAQS, the EPA is also finalizing a determination that the obligation for Utah to make submissions to meet certain Clean Air Act (CAA or the Act) requirements related to attainment of the NAAQS for this area is not applicable for as long as the area continues to attain the NAAQS.
