EPA Accepting Comments on
2015 Ozone Transport Rule
On Feb. 28, 2022, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) proposed a Federal Implementation Plan, also known as a FIP, to address ozone transport (good neighbor) obligations for the 2015 Ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standards.
The EPA is taking comments on the proposal through June 6, 2022.
The rule seeks to establish an allowance-based ozone season trading program with nitrogen oxides (NOx) emissions budgets for fossil fuel-fired power plants in 25 states. The rule would also establish NOx emissions limitations for certain other industrial stationary sources in 23 states. Both programs would affect Wisconsin.
See the EPA’s webpage for complete information on this proposal. The EPA’s summary of the proposal is available here.
