Connecticut adds compliance deadlines

The EPA is proposing to approve Connecticut’s revision to its State Implementation Plan that adds compliance dates for sources newly covered because the definition of a “severe non‑attainment area for ozone” changed. The revision updates Regulations of Connecticut State Agencies sections 22a‑174‑22e and 22a‑174‑22f so businesses brought into coverage now have clear deadlines to meet air quality requirements under the Clean Air Act.
