12 Visibility Requirements Section 169A of CAAA of 1977 requires “as a national goal the prevention of any future, and the remedying of any existing, impairment of visibility in Class I areas which impairment results from manmade air pollution.” Visibility regulations (July 1, 1999) require “reasonable progress” to achieving natural conditions by the year 2064

20 2009 Base Controls Current state/local rules to meet 1-hour ozone requirements (e.g., motor vehicle I/M, reformulated gasoline, and NOx SIP Call) Heavy-duty diesel (2007) engine standard/Low sulfur fuel Federal control programs incorporated into NONROAD model (e.g., nonroad diesel rule), plus the evaporative Large Spark Ignition and Recreational Vehicle standards Federal railroad/locomotive standards Federal commercial marine vessel engine standards Tier II/Low sulfur fuel Title IV for EGUs (Phases I and II) VOC 2-, 4-, 7-, and 10-year MACT standards Combustion turbine MACT Industrial boiler/process heater/RICE MACT

21 Base (2001-2003) 2009 Base O3O3

22 Base (2001-2003) 2009 Base PM 2.5

23 Summary Regional, multi-pollutant planning approach SIPs for ozone (8-hour) and PM 2.5 due in mid- 2007 and early 2008, respectively Need to identify control strategies by late 2005/early 2006 Technical analyses to support SIP development underway
