{"abstract":"On November 13, 2017, the State of Georgia through the Georgia Environmental Protection Division (EPD), submitted revisions to the Georgia State Implementation Plan (SIP). The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to approve SIP revisions, which modify the State's air quality regulations as incorporated into the SIP. Specifically, the revisions pertain to definition changes, including the modification of the definition of \"volatile organic compounds,\" (VOC) and changes to the State's air quality standards for sulfur dioxide (SO<INF>2</INF>), particulate matter (both PM<INF>2.5</INF> and PM<INF>10</INF>), carbon monoxide (CO), ozone (O<INF>3</INF>), lead (Pb) and nitrogen dioxide (NO<INF>2</INF>) to be consistent with the National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS). EPA is proposing to approve these provisions of the SIP revisions because the State has demonstrated that these changes are consistent with the Clean Air Act (CAA or Act).","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/2018/07/17/2018-15147.html","cfr_references":[{"chapter":null,"citation_url":null,"part":52,"title":40}],"citation":"83 FR 33168","comment_url":null,"comments_close_on":"2018-08-16","correction_of":null,"corrections":[],"dates":"Comments must be received on or before August 16, 2018.","disposition_notes":null,"docket_ids":["EPA-R04-OAR-2018-0116","FRL-9980-80-Region 4"],"dockets":[{"supporting_documents":[{"title":"Misc_Defs, NAAQS, PSD, Exemptions, Permits, TV","document_id":"EPA-R04-OAR-2018-0116-0002"}],"agency_name":"EPA","documents":[{"comment_count":4,"comment_start_date":"2018-07-17","updated_at":"2023-03-01T03:36:39.621-05:00","comment_url":"https://www.regulations.gov/commenton/EPA-R04-OAR-2018-0116-0001","allow_late_comments":null,"id":"EPA-R04-OAR-2018-0116-0001","comment_end_date":"2018-08-17","regulations_dot_gov_open_for_comment":false}],"supporting_documents_count":1,"id":"EPA-R04-OAR-2018-0116","title":"Georgia VOC Definitions and Ambient Air Standards SIP Revision"}],"document_number":"2018-15147","effective_on":null,"end_page":33171,"executive_order_notes":null,"executive_order_number":null,"full_text_xml_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/xml/2018/07/17/2018-15147.xml","html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2018/07/17/2018-15147/air-plan-approval-georgia-revisions-to-voc-definitions-and-ambient-air-quality-standards","images":{},"images_metadata":{},"json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/documents/2018-15147?publication_date=2018-07-17","mods_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/metadata/granule/FR-2018-07-17/2018-15147/mods.xml","not_received_for_publication":null,"page_length":4,"page_views":{"count":199,"last_updated":"2026-06-24 02:15:03 -0400"},"pdf_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2018-07-17/pdf/2018-15147.pdf","presidential_document_number":null,"proclamation_number":null,"public_inspection_pdf_url":"https://public-inspection.federalregister.gov/2018-15147.pdf?1531745120","publication_date":"2018-07-17","raw_text_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/text/2018/07/17/2018-15147.txt","regulation_id_number_info":{},"regulation_id_numbers":[],"regulations_dot_gov_info":{"supporting_documents":[{"title":"Misc_Defs, NAAQS, PSD, Exemptions, Permits, TV","document_id":"EPA-R04-OAR-2018-0116-0002"}],"comments_count":4,"agency_id":"EPA","comments_url":"https://www.regulations.gov/docketBrowser?rpp=50&so=DESC&sb=postedDate&po=0&dct=PS&D=EPA-R04-OAR-2018-0116","supporting_documents_count":1,"docket_id":"EPA-R04-OAR-2018-0116","document_id":"EPA-R04-OAR-2018-0116-0001","regulation_id_number":null,"title":"Georgia VOC Definitions and Ambient Air Standards SIP Revision","checked_regulationsdotgov_at":"2023-03-01T08:36:38Z"},"regulations_dot_gov_url":null,"significant":null,"signing_date":null,"start_page":33168,"subtype":null,"title":"Air Plan Approval; Georgia; Revisions to VOC Definitions and Ambient Air Quality Standards","toc_doc":"Georgia; Revisions to VOC Definitions and Ambient Air Quality Standards","toc_subject":"Air Quality State Implementation Plans; Approvals and Promulgations:","topics":["Air pollution control","Carbon monoxide","Environmental protection","Incorporation by reference","Intergovernmental relations","Lead","Nitrogen dioxide","Ozone","Particulate matter","Reporting and recordkeeping requirements","Sulfur oxides","Volatile organic compounds"],"type":"Proposed Rule","volume":83}
