{"abstract":"The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is approving State Implementation Plan (SIP) revisions submitted by the State of Connecticut on December 1, 2004. Specifically, EPA is approving revisions to Connecticut's visible and particulate matter (PM) emissions, recordkeeping and monitoring regulations. These revised rules establish and require limitations on visible and PM emissions for stationary sources, and clarify reporting requirements for operation of air-pollution-control and monitoring equipment. EPA is approving this SIP revision because EPA has determined that it will not interfere with attainment or maintenance of the national ambient air quality standards (NAAQS) in Connecticut or with any other applicable requirements of the Clean Air Act (CAA). This action is being taken in accordance with the CAA.","action":"Final 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/2014/07/16/2014-16469.html","cfr_references":[{"chapter":null,"citation_url":null,"part":52,"title":40}],"citation":"79 FR 41427","comment_url":null,"comments_close_on":null,"correction_of":null,"corrections":[],"dates":"This rule is effective on August 15, 2014.","disposition_notes":null,"docket_ids":["EPA-R01-OAR-2009-0469","A-1-FRL-9910-12-Region 1"],"dockets":[],"document_number":"2014-16469","effective_on":"2014-08-15","end_page":41437,"executive_order_notes":null,"executive_order_number":null,"explanation":null,"full_text_xml_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/xml/2014/07/16/2014-16469.xml","html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2014/07/16/2014-16469/approval-and-promulgation-of-implementation-plans-connecticut-control-of-visible-emissions","images":{},"images_metadata":{},"json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/documents/2014-16469?publication_date=2014-07-16","mods_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/metadata/granule/FR-2014-07-16/2014-16469/mods.xml","not_received_for_publication":null,"page_length":11,"page_views":{"count":159,"last_updated":"2026-04-04 00:15:02 -0400"},"pdf_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2014-07-16/pdf/2014-16469.pdf","presidential_document_number":null,"proclamation_number":null,"public_inspection_pdf_url":"https://public-inspection.federalregister.gov/2014-16469.pdf?1405428479","publication_date":"2014-07-16","raw_text_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/text/2014/07/16/2014-16469.txt","regulation_id_number_info":{},"regulation_id_numbers":[],"regulations_dot_gov_info":{"supporting_documents":[{"title":"Connecticut Department of Energy and Environmental Protection letter to EPA dated January 14, 2013.","document_id":"EPA-R01-OAR-2009-0469-0037"},{"title":"May 2012 CT DEEP Consent Order with Pfizer, Inc.","document_id":"EPA-R01-OAR-2009-0469-0036"},{"title":"March 12, 2012 CT DEEP letter clarifying 2008 PM2.5 Attainment Demo","document_id":"EPA-R01-OAR-2009-0469-0035"},{"title":"April 2010 CT DEEP Consent Order with NRG Energy, Inc.","document_id":"EPA-R01-OAR-2009-0469-0034"},{"title":"32 CT DEEP's Letter Dated July 8 2013 Withdrawing A Portion Of RCSA Section 22a-174-18, Which Was Originally Submitted To EPA On December 1, 2004.","document_id":"EPA-R01-OAR-2009-0469-0033"},{"title":"31 Attachment B-2   R.C.S.A.
