Purpose of the meeting
The Department of Environmental Quality will hold a public hearing on three proposed revisions to the Commonwealth of Virginia State Implementation Plan (SIP). The proposed revisions consist of amendments to existing regulation provisions concerning maintenance and nonattainment areas. The amendments consist of (i) Revision O97, geographical redefinition of maintenance areas to be consistent with the federal Clean Air Act and the redesignation of the Hampton Roads Ozone Nonattainment Area to maintenance for the 1-hour ozone standard, adopted September 11, 1997, effective January 1, 1998; (ii) Revision R97, redesignation of the Richmond Ozone Nonattainment Area to maintenance for the 1-hour ozone standard, adopted January 8, 1998, effective April 1, 1998; and (iii) Revision A98, removing the White Top Mountain Ozone Nonattainment Area, adopted September 17, 1998, effective January 1, 1999. The department is seeking comment on the issue of whether the regulation amendments should be submitted to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency as a revision to the SIP.
