{"abstract":"The Ohio Environmental Protection Agency (Ohio EPA) submitted a request on September 22, 2006, and supplemented it on November 17, 2006, for redesignation of Washington County, Ohio (the Ohio portion of the Parkersburg-Marietta 8-hour ozone nonattainment area) to attainment for the 8-hour ozone standard. EPA is proposing to approve the several elements of this request. First, EPA is making a determination that complete, quality-assured ambient air quality data indicate that the Parkersburg-Marietta area has attained the 8-hour ozone standard. Furthermore, preliminary monitoring data for the 2006 ozone season show that the Parkersburg-Marietta area continues to attain the NAAQS. Second, EPA is proposing to approve, as revisions to the Ohio State Implementation Plan (SIP), the State's plans for maintaining the 8-hour ozone NAAQS through 2018. Third, EPA is proposing to redesignate Washington County to attainment for the 8-hour ozone standard, based on a finding that the requirements for this redesignation have been satisfied. Fourth, EPA finds adequate and is proposing to approve the State's 2018 Motor Vehicle Emission Budgets (MVEBs) for Washington County. Region 3 will address the West Virginia portion of the Parkersburg-Marietta area (Wood County) in a separate rulemaking action.","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/2007/01/17/E7-520.html","cfr_references":[{"chapter":null,"citation_url":null,"part":52,"title":40},{"chapter":null,"citation_url":null,"part":81,"title":40}],"citation":"72 FR 1956","comment_url":null,"comments_close_on":"2007-02-16","correction_of":null,"corrections":[],"dates":"Comments must be received on or before February 16, 2007.","disposition_notes":null,"docket_ids":["EPA-R05-OAR-2006-0892","FRL-8269-3"],"dockets":[],"document_number":"E7-520","effective_on":null,"end_page":1965,"executive_order_notes":null,"executive_order_number":null,"full_text_xml_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/xml/2007/01/17/E7-520.xml","html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2007/01/17/E7-520/redesignation-of-washington-county-oh-to-attainment-for-the-8-hour-ozone-standard","images":{},"images_metadata":{},"json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/documents/E7-520?publication_date=2007-01-17","mods_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/metadata/granule/FR-2007-01-17/E7-520/mods.xml","not_received_for_publication":null,"page_length":10,"page_views":{"count":36,"last_updated":"2026-07-28 16:15:03 -0400"},"pdf_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2007-01-17/pdf/E7-520.pdf","presidential_document_number":null,"proclamation_number":null,"public_inspection_pdf_url":null,"publication_date":"2007-01-17","raw_text_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/text/2007/01/17/E7-520.txt","regulation_id_number_info":{},"regulation_id_numbers":[],"regulations_dot_gov_info":{"checked_regulationsdotgov_at":"2011-11-12T20:33:11Z"},"regulations_dot_gov_url":null,"significant":null,"signing_date":null,"start_page":1956,"subtype":null,"title":"Redesignation of Washington County, OH To Attainment for the 8-Hour Ozone Standard","toc_doc":"Ohio","toc_subject":"Air quality implementation plans; approval and promulgation; various States; air quality planning purposes; designation of areas:","topics":["Air pollution control","Environmental protection","Intergovernmental relations","Nitrogen oxides","Ozone","Volatile organic compounds","Wilderness areas"],"type":"Proposed Rule","volume":72}
