9. 204.220 Ambient Air Quality Assessment Re-titled from “Ambient Air Quality Protection” to “Ambient Air Quality Assessment” Remove 204.220 (1) and (2) regarding issuing of permits that will not interfere with “attainment or maintenance of any ambient air quality standard…”; Moved to proposed new section of 62-210.300(8) Ambient Air Quality Protection Rulemaking for General Permits, Exemptions, and Clarifying Amendments Renumber (3) and (4) regarding ambient air quality monitors but leave language mostly as is 9October 20, 2010

10. 204.240 Ambient Air Quality Standards Section proposed to be repealed Standards set forth identical to, or less stringent than, current NAAQS in 40 C.F.R. Part 50, adopted by reference at 62-204.800 Definition of “ambient air quality standard” in 62-210.200 includes NAAQS therefore unnecessary to repeat the federal standards here Future revisions to NAAQS will also be adopted by reference at 62-204.800 10October 20, 2010

11. 204.260 Prevention of Significant Deterioration Maximum Allowable Increases (PSD Increments) Section proposed to be repealed PSD increments in this section identical to 40 C.F.R. 52.21(c) and adopted by reference in 62- 204.800 Definition of “maximum allowable increase” or “PSD increment” that references this federal rule added to 62-210.200 in concurrent rulemaking Future revisions to PSD increments will be adopted by reference via this definition in 62- 210.200 11October 20, 2010

14. 204.360 Designation of Areas for Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) Purposes Re-titled: Designation of Areas for Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) Purposes Areas Reorganized to eliminate the use of the term “PSD area” Designations in 40 C.F.R. Part 81, adopted by reference Proposed revised definition of “baseline area” in 62- 210.200 refers to the federal designations, therefore this section can be reduced Minor source baseline dates preserved 14October 20, 2010

15. 204.360 cont. PM 2.5 Added PM 2.5 baseline area proposed to be the entire state, consistent with other pollutants Sentence serving as a placeholder for when minor source baseline date is determined, pursuant to the revised definition of “minor source baseline date” in 62-210.200 “Major source baseline date” for PM 2.5 defined in 62-210.200 as date of publication of the PM 2.5 increments in F.R.
