What action is the District taking?
The Louisville Metro Air Pollution Control District is announcing a public meeting on April 7, 2021 at 6:00 p.m. to present information and answer questions regarding Regulation 2.04, Construction or Modification of Major Sources in or Impacting upon Non-Attainment Areas (Emission Offset Requirements), and a related Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (ANPR). The District opened a comment period March 10, 2021, on an ANPR for Regulation 2.04, Version 8.
Summary of proposal
Because Louisville has been designated nonattainment by U.S. EPA for the 2015 ozone NAAQS, the District is required to implement a “Nonattainment New Source Review” (NNSR) program. The District is asking for feedback on the best approach to updating its implementation of Regulation 2.04, which is the District’s current NNSR program. The District is considering a range of options from minor updates to a larger over-haul of the rule to match a set of changes to corresponding federal regulations made by the U.S. EPA between 2002 and earlier this year known as “New Source Review Reform.”
Updates to the federal rules include:
• Changes to how baseline emissions are calculated,
• The new “actual-to-projected-actual applicability test” in place of the “actual-to-potential test,”
• Addition of “Plantwide Applicability Limits (PALs),”
• Changes to “Project Aggregation,” and
• “Project Emissions Accounting.”
For more information please see the notice announcing the comment period, and the full ANPR at www.louisvilleky.gov/APCD/Docket.
How can I attend the public meeting?
The public meeting will be held via Webex teleconference (due to the COVID-19 pandemic), which can be accessed online or by telephone, from 6:00 to 7:30 p.m., or until discussion ends (whichever is first). You can join the meeting at https://louisvilleky.webex.com/louisvilleky/j.php?MTID=m3ef09008a0b4acca358ff33edfceaa16, or by calling 415-655-0001 (US Toll) and using access code: 157 173 4640 at the appointed time. This information will also be posted to the docket for this action before the meeting.
What is the purpose of the public meeting?
This public meeting is intended as an opportunity for the public to ask questions about the ANPR, and to interact with the District on a more informal level than the public hearing opportunity provided during the formal regulatory proposal and comment period. Written comments from the public are welcome throughout the informal comment period.
How can I comment on this action?
You can comment in writing by emailing airregs@louisvilleky.gov, online here, or by mail to the Board Secretary-Treasurer, Byron Gary, Louisville Metro Air Pollution Control District, 701 W. Ormsby Ave., Suite 303, Louisville, KY 40203, until 5:00 p.m., April 9, 2021.
Where can I get a copy of the proposed action?
A paper copy of the ANPR may be obtained from the District by contacting us at (502) 574-6000. Please specify that you are calling about Regulation 2.04, ANPR, provide your name and mailing address, and allow time for processing and delivery via USPS.
Louisville Metro Government (LMG) has entered into an agreement with Park Community Credit Union that will administer a $2.2 million fund to assist small businesses, which have been financially impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. The funds have been made available through federal Community Development Block Grant dollars.
Approximately 50% of total funds will be distributed as grants to small businesses located in and/or predominantly serving west Louisville, Smoketown and Shelby Park. The remaining half will be distributed as loans to any small business located in Louisville. Minority-owned and women-owned enterprises will be given a preference for loans and grants. Both the grants and loan products will be available to businesses that qualify on a first-come, first-served basis. Loans will be available from $5,000 to $150,000 with a maximum term of 84 months and a fixed rate of .75% APR. Grants will be offered up to $50,000.
Small businesses, for the purposes of this fund, are defined as businesses with less than 300 employees and less than $20 million average annual revenue. Funds must be used to sustain business operations (payroll, rent, utilities, etc.).
The application window will open on Monday, March 29. To apply for a loan or grant, applicants should visit Park Community application website to fill out an interest form.

Gov. Andy Beshear, following the final day of the 2021 regular session, announced today Kentucky lawmakers and his administration reached a bipartisan agreement on legislation that aims to create more than 14,500 new jobs and help the commonwealth lead in the post-COVID economy.
Through the passage of bills Tuesday evening, nearly $1.3 billion in American Rescue Plan Act funds will be used to boost the state’s economy by expanding broadband, delivering clean drinking water, and building new schools.
Expanding Broadband Could Create 10,000 Jobs
The $300 million approved for broadband deployment targets unserved and underserved areas. Combined with at least 50% required matching investments, this means a minimum of $600 million will go toward broadband expansion. That is estimated to create over 10,000 direct and indirect jobs.
Delivering Clean Water Creates 1,000 Jobs
The Better Kentucky Recovery Fund will replace or lay new pipelines to provide clean drinking water and also improve sanitary water systems, modernizing infrastructure without raising rates while creating 3,800 to 5,800 direct and indirect jobs.
Building Schools Could Generate 1,000 Jobs
The $127 million allocated for renovating and replacing school facilities will accelerate the much-needed improvements of schools that have been designated as the highest ranked on the Department of Education’s Facilities Inventory and Classification System report.
To get more details go to click here.
Gov. Beshear has signed an executive order that applies the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s order extending the nationwide moratorium on evictions from residential premises for nonpayment of rent through June 30, 2021.
To be covered by the CDC eviction moratorium, complete this Declaration Form and click this link for the Spanish version .
The Governor has designated $264 million to the Team Kentucky Healthy at Home Eviction Relief Fund that can assist Kentucky renters in 118 counties with rent or utility payments. For more information and to apply, click here.
To apply for eviction relief in Lexington-Fayette County, visit covid19renterhelp.org. To apply for eviction relief in Louisville-Jefferson County, visit stopmyeviction.org. Homeowners at risk of foreclosure should visit the Kentucky Homeownership Protection Center website. Homeowners in need of utility assistance should contact their local Community Action Agency.
Thirteen Kentucky Career Centers (KCC) are opening by mid-April to in- person Unemployment Insurance services. The locations are in Ashland, Bowling Green, Covington, Elizabethtown, Hazard, Hopkinsville, Lexington, Louisville, Morehead, Owensboro, Paducah, Prestonsburg and Somerset.
Kentuckians will soon be able to make appointments at the KCC website. Claimants can receive assistance with UI, and in addition, they will have access to other resources such as: assistance with finding a job; assistance with job training and apprenticeship opportunities; vocational rehabilitation services; and adult education services, such as the free GED program that is being offered for first-time test takers.
Eberspaecher North America Inc., a system developer and supplier of exhaust technology, thermal management systems and automotive electronics, is expected to create 214 quality job opportunities with a more than $30 million investment to establish a new operation in Louisville, Gov. Andy Beshear announced.
Eberspaecher will occupy over 125,000 square feet of an existing 314,500-square-foot facility at 7001 Greenbelt Highway in the Louisville Riverport, to serve its recently expanded customer base in the U.S. The new facility also will allow the company to increase its focus on environmental protection, safety and comfort across its products, which includes exhaust emission conversion technologies and acoustic systems for passenger vehicles. Its innovative products improve air quality and sustainably reduce traffic noise. Work on the project is scheduled to begin in May and be completed by August.
For more information on this from the Governor read the entire press release here.
House Bill 192 is the Executive Branch budget bill. Gov. Beshear asked for general funds for 90 new Office of Unemployment Insurance employee positions, who would be cross-trained to assist citizens with both Unemployment Insurance and employment services. The legislature instead appropriated federal funds that OUI was already receiving from the U.S. Department of Labor.
Senate Bill 52. This legislation will strengthen protections for those who are under the supervision of law enforcement and reduce sexual exploitation. SB 52 will make sure no individuals or groups are omitted from punishment for these types of crimes.
HB 321 implements portions of the West End Opportunity Partnership (WEOP). It aims to stabilize and improve portions of West Louisville through using Tax Increment Financing (TIF) to attract investment and reinvestment in neighborhoods beyond Ninth Street. Focal points include creating the TIF program and development area, forming a community-controlled (51%) board to oversee investment opportunities and neighborhood initiatives, attracting investment, and preventing displacement of current residents.
HB 382 was amended by the Senate Appropriations and Revenue Committee to provide $140 million for full-day kindergarten. It also allocates other funds from the federal American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (ARPA) to various uses. Those include: $575 million to pay back the interest and principal on the federal unemployment insurance trust fund loan taken by Kentucky during the pandemic; $842,400 for Kentucky’s nature preserves; $50,000 for the Kentucky African American Heritage Commission; and, $3.3 million to reopen the Northern Kentucky Regional Medical Examiner Office. In addition, the bill adds $50 million more for broadband expansion through ARPA funds.
HB 556 allocates $53 million of ARPA funds for Capitol renovations, $127 million for school facility construction, and $75 million for renovation costs at local area vocational education centers. The legislation is also the funding mechanism for the West End Opportunity Partnership, earmarking $10 million to WEOP “iflocal matching funds are found. It allocates $37 million in federal funds to the Justice and Public Safety Cabinet to provide grants for limiting the spread of COVID-19, $20 million to rural hospitals in a revolving loan fund, and $14.7 million to provide technology upgrades in county jails.
SB 36 was amended to appropriate $250 million of the ARPA funds for drinking water and wastewater grant programs. Splitting $150 million will be all 120 counties, with another $50 million going toward providing drinking water services to unserved areas. Another portion of the bill allocates around $50 million to assist the Department of Corrections with mental health, substance abuse, and reentry centers and the associated costs to operate them.
HB 91, a proposed constitutional amendment, will have Kentucky voters decide next year whether to add the following words to the state constitution: “To protect human life, nothing in this Constitution shall be construed to secure or protect a right to abortion or require the funding of Abortion.”

On Tuesday, Mayor Fischer and Dr. Sarah Moyer, Louisville’s Chief Health Strategist were joined by health officials to provide an update on COVID-19 in Louisville and announce a new phase in the city’s fight against COVID-19 utilizing mobile vaccination missions to reach vulnerable populations.
While encouraged by the 11 consecutive weeks of declining COVID cases in the city, Mayor Fischer said residents and community members cannot afford to get complacent with COVID variants evolving around the world and across the country.
“We have to keep pushing. We can’t act like this fight is over just because we’re in a better position than we were in January. It’s most certainly not over because we know this virus is evolving and there are multiple variants circulating. Just as the virus evolves, our approach to stopping it has to evolve as well.”
Mayor Fischer expressed optimism in the ongoing bout with COVID citing the presence of three safe and effective vaccines that are proven in preventing serious complications against the virus. He urged that people should continue to follow the safety measures of mask-wearing, social distancing, avoiding crowds and when it’s their turn to get vaccinated.
“Getting vaccinated, creating herd immunity is how we reclaim our lives, reclaim our community and reclaim control over our health and our future,” he said.
Here are the key COVID-19 data metrics for the week of March 29, 2021:
- There were 754 new cases over the previous week.
- Hospitalization data:
- 7% of patients currently hospitalized have COVID-19.
- 19 patients in ICU with COVID-19 as of March 30, a decrease from 22 the week prior.
- 12 COVID-19 patients on ventilators as of March 30, same number as last week.
- 391,136 total vaccine doses given in Metro Louisville since December.
- 31.5% of Louisville residents have received at least one dose of vaccine and 15.8% have completed the vaccine series
Dr. Moyer reported that Louisville remains in the orange alert level for COVID cases with the recent decline. She added there are still several hospitalizations and patients lost to the virus that is preventable with vaccination. As the weather progresses into warmer forecasts, Dr. Moyer encourage individuals ages 16 and older or ages 40 and older with health conditions that put them at increased risk of severe illness from COVID-19 to... read more here.
On March 1, Governor Andy Beshear announced that indoor businesses that include restaurants and bars would be allowed to increase operation capacity to 60 percent.
According to the Centers for Disease Control, the risk of COVID-19 spread increases in a restaurant or bar setting as interactions within six feet of others increase.
As restaurants and bars continue operations, Metro Health and Wellness would like to remind these establishments and their employees to protect themselves due to your increased risk of COVID-19 spread.
Metro Health and Wellness encourages all employees of these establishments to protect themselves and others by wearing masks, practicing six feet of distancing and getting vaccinated.
COVID vaccine supply has caught up with demand. There are now appointments available through our hospital partners at U of L Health, Norton Healthcare and many pharmacies.
Way to Go District 7! We are one of the top districts in the county getting vaccinated!

Jefferson County Attorney Mike O’Connell released the office’s 2021 delinquent child support list Monday, with this year’s list including audited cases owing $3,000 or more each.
“The COVID-19 pandemic has affected us all in the last year,” O’Connell said. “The children of our community need support and care, now more than ever. That’s why my office continues to seek that parents meet their financial responsibility to the children of Jefferson County.”
This year’s list of 3,467 individuals can be found online at https://louisvilleky.gov/government/county-attorney/2021-delinquent-child-support-list. This year’s list shows more than $89 million in total arrearages owed.
“This list includes many who have completely disregarded their obligations to their children,” O’Connell said. “My staff works every day to connect kids with the child support they need and deserve. We need the community’s help to find the individuals on this list as the information you share could be life changing to child in need.”
Child support collection offers a strong return on investment of public dollars. For every $1 spent nationally, federal child support programs collect $5.06. That figure rises to $6.04 for every $1 spent in Kentucky.
Anyone with information that could help locate someone on the list should call the Jefferson County Attorney’s child support tip line at (502) 574-0821, go online to www.louisvilleky.gov/countyattorney or visit the office at 315 W. Muhammad Ali Blvd.
