Revision to the Idaho State Implementation Plan; Approval of Fine Particulate Matter Control Measures; Franklin County

On December 14, 2012, the Idaho Department of Environmental Quality (IDEQ) submitted a revision to the State Implementation Plan (SIP) to address Clean Air Act (CAA) requirements for the Idaho portion (hereafter referred to as "Franklin County") of the cross border Logan, Utah-Idaho fine particulate matter (PM 2.5 ) nonattainment area (Logan UT-ID). The EPA is proposing a limited approval of PM 2.5 control measures contained in the December 2012 submittal because incorporation of these measures would strengthen the Idaho SIP and reduce sources of PM 2.5 emissions in Franklin County that contribute to violations of the 2006 PM 2.5 NAAQS in the Logan UT-ID nonattainment area. Consequently, the EPA is not acting on the entire contents of the December 2012 SIP submission revision at this time.
