EPA Approves New Jersey's Air Quality Plan, Redesignates Areas

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is set to approve New Jersey's State Implementation Plan (SIP) revisions, which include a maintenance plan for reducing emissions of pollutants such as ammonia, volatile organic compounds, and sulfur dioxide. This approval will redesignate certain areas in New Jersey from nonattainment to attainment for air quality standards set by the EPA.
