## Abstract

The EPA is announcing the approval of a revision to the New Jersey State Implementation Plan (SIP) for the attainment and maintenance of the national ambient air quality standards for Ozone. The SIP revision was submitted by the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection and consists of the adopted revisions to Subchapter 16 ``Control and Prohibition of Air Pollution by Volatile Organic Compounds.'' These revisions relate to the control of volatile organic compounds from major stationary sources not subject to control techniques guidelines (CTG). The intended effect is to reduce the emissions of volatile organic compounds and thereby reduce ozone concentrations in the lower atmosphere which will assist in attaining the health based ozone air quality standard. EPA finds that the State has met the Clean Air Act requirement to adopt reasonably available control technology for non-CTG major sources. EPA is also approving revisions to Subchapter 8 ``Permits and Certificates,'' Subchapter 17 ``Control and Prohibition of Air Pollution by Toxic Substances,'' Subchapter 23 ``Prevention of Air Pollution From Architectural Coatings and Consumer Products'' and Subchapter 25 ``Control and Prohibition of Air Pollution by Vehicular Fuels,'' and Air Test Method 3--Sampling and Analytical Procedures for the Determination of Volatile Organic Compounds from Source Operations (Title 7, Chapter 27B, Subchapter 3).
