EPA Proposes Approval of Maryland's Air Quality Plan for Baltimore Ozone Nonattainment Area

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to approve Maryland's State Implementation Plan (SIP) for the Baltimore area, which demonstrates the state's ability to meet the one-hour ozone standard, or alternatively, to disapprove the plan if Maryland fails to submit a suitable emissions budget and adopt necessary rules to reduce nitrogen oxide emissions.
