Zusammenfassung
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to determine that the New York-N. New Jersey-Long Island, NY-NJ-CT fine particle (PM 2.5 ) nonattainment area has attained the 1997 annual fine particle National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS). This proposed determination is based upon quality assured, quality controlled, and certified ambient air monitoring data that shows the area has monitored attainment of the 1997 annual PM 2.5 NAAQS for the 2007-2009 monitoring period. If this proposed determination is made final, the requirements for this area to submit an attainment demonstration, reasonably available control measures, reasonable further progress plan, and contingency measures related to attainment of the 1997 PM 2.5 NAAQS shall be suspended for so long as the area continues to attain the 1997 annual PM 2.5 NAAQS.
