Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans; Ohio; Approval of Revision To Rescind Portions of the Ohio Transportation Conformity Regulations

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is approving a January 31, 2007, request from Ohio for a State Implementation Plan (SIP) revision of the State transportation conformity regulations. Ohio held a public hearing on these revisions on September 21, 2006. These revisions rescind the portion of the state transportation conformity regulations which are no longer consistent with the Federal transportation conformity regulations. The rescission of the State regulations will allow the Federal transportation conformity regulations to govern transportation conformity determinations in Ohio.
