Description

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to approve New York State's Implementation Plan (SIP) demonstrating compliance with the interstate transport requirements of the Clean Air Act for the 2010 1-hour sulfur dioxide (SO2) National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS). This "good neighbor" provision requires states to prohibit emissions that significantly contribute to nonattainment or interfere with maintenance of the NAAQS in other states. The EPA's evaluation concludes that New York's SIP adequately addresses these requirements, ensuring no significant interstate pollution transport for SO2. Public comments on this proposed rule are due by May 11, 2026.
