{"abstract":"EPA is proposing to approve the revision to the State Implementation Plan submitted by the State of New Jersey on July 28, 2009, and supplemented on December 9, 2010, and March 2, 2011, that addresses regional haze for the first planning period from 2008 through 2018. This revision addresses the requirements of the Clean Air Act and EPA's rules that require states to prevent any future, and remedy any existing, anthropogenic impairment of visibility in mandatory Class I areas caused by emissions of air pollutants located over a wide geographic area (also referred to as the \"regional haze program\"). States are required to assure reasonable progress toward the national goal of achieving natural visibility conditions in Class I areas. This plan protects and improves visibility levels in New Jersey's Class I area, the Brigantine Wilderness Area of the Edwin B. Forsythe National Wildlife Refuge, as well as other Class I areas in the Northeast United States. New Jersey's SIP is in two parts: Reasonable Progress and application of Best Available Retrofit Control Technology. EPA is proposing to approve the Reasonable Progress portion of the plan, since New Jersey has adopted all of the reasonably available measures recommended by the states during the development of the SIP. EPA is proposing approval of New Jersey's plans to implement Best Available Retrofit Technologies on eligible sources, as well New Jersey's Subchapter 9, Sulfur in Fuels.","action":"Proposed rule.","agencies":[{"raw_name":"ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY","name":"Environmental Protection Agency","id":145,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/environmental-protection-agency","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/145","parent_id":null,"slug":"environmental-protection-agency"}],"body_html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/html/2011/08/11/2011-20482.html","cfr_references":[{"chapter":null,"citation_url":null,"part":52,"title":40}],"citation":"76 FR 49711","comment_url":null,"comments_close_on":"2011-09-12","correction_of":null,"corrections":[],"dates":"Comments must be received on or before September 12, 2011.","disposition_notes":null,"docket_ids":["EPA-R02-OAR-2011-0607, FRL-9450-9"],"dockets":[],"document_number":"2011-20482","effective_on":null,"end_page":49724,"executive_order_notes":null,"executive_order_number":null,"full_text_xml_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/xml/2011/08/11/2011-20482.xml","html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2011/08/11/2011-20482/approval-and-promulgation-of-air-quality-implementation-plans-state-of-new-jersey-regional-haze","images":{},"images_metadata":{},"json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/documents/2011-20482?publication_date=2011-08-11","mods_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/metadata/granule/FR-2011-08-11/2011-20482/mods.xml","not_received_for_publication":null,"page_length":14,"page_views":{"count":206,"last_updated":"2026-08-23 18:15:06 -0400"},"pdf_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2011-08-11/pdf/2011-20482.pdf","presidential_document_number":null,"proclamation_number":null,"public_inspection_pdf_url":null,"publication_date":"2011-08-11","raw_text_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/text/2011/08/11/2011-20482.txt","regulation_id_number_info":{},"regulation_id_numbers":[],"regulations_dot_gov_info":{"checked_regulationsdotgov_at":"2011-08-31T08:07:42Z"},"regulations_dot_gov_url":null,"significant":null,"signing_date":null,"start_page":49711,"subtype":null,"title":"Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans; State of New Jersey; Regional Haze State Implementation Plan","toc_doc":"State of New Jersey; Regional Haze State Implementation Plan","toc_subject":"Approvals and Promulgations of Air Quality Implementation Plans:","topics":["Air pollution control","Environmental protection","Nitrogen dioxide","Particulate matter","Reporting and recordkeeping requirements","Sulfur oxides","Volatile organic compounds"],"type":"Proposed Rule","volume":76}
