Code of Federal Regulations Title 40. Protection of Environment § 40.52.572 Approval status

(a)With the exceptions set forth in this subpart, the Administrator approves Georgia's plans for the attainment and maintenance of the national standards under section 110 of the Clean Air Act. Furthermore, the Administrator finds the plans satisfy all requirements of Part D, Title I, of the Clean Air Act as amended in 1977.

(b) Disapproval. Submittal from the State of Georgia, through the Georgia's Department of Natural Resources Environmental Protection Division (EPD) on January 13, 2011, that would allow for the automatic rescission of federal permitting-related requirements in certain circumstances. EPA is disapproving a portion of the SIP submittal related to a provision (at 391–3–1–.02(7)(a)(2)(iv)) that would automatically rescind portions of Georgia's State Implementation Plan in the wake of certain court decisions or other triggering events (the automatic rescission clause).
