SIP Submittal for Chapter 62-204, F.A.C., Air Pollution Control - General Provisions

On July 6, 2022, the Florida Department of Environmental Protection submitted a proposed revision to Florida's State Implementation Plan (SIP) to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as required by the federal Clean Air Act.

DEP has requested that EPA revise Florida's SIP to include revisions to Chapter 62-204, F.A.C. This proposed SIP revision consists of the removal of outdated or superseded Florida Administrative Code (F.A.C.) requirements including the required CAA Section 110(l) noninterference demonstration. The proposed SIP revision also incorporates amendments to F.A.C. rules to make Florida’s SIP consistent with current rules. EPA incorporates F.A.C. rules into Florida’s SIP on a rule-by-rule basis according to their state-established effective dates. The rule language that DEP is requesting be removed from, or amended within, Florida’s SIP is contained in Chapter 62-204, F.A.C., Air Pollution Control - General Provisions.
