Abstract
The EPA is approving a State Implementation Plan (SIP) revision submitted by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. This revision approves 310 CMR 7.02(12), entitled ``U Restricted Emission Status,'' into the Massachusetts SIP. The intended effect of this action is to approve a SIP revision by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts to incorporate regulations for the issuance of federally enforceable operating permits which restrict sources' potential to emit criteria pollutants such that sources can avoid reasonably available control technology (RACT), title V operating permit requirements, or otherwise applicable requirements. This also extends federal enforceability of hazardous air pollutants (HAPs). This action is being taken in accordance with the Implementation Plans Section and the State Programs Section of the Clean Air Act.
