Code of Virginia § 10.1-1307.03, Requirements applicable to Outer Continental Shelf sources, requires that the board adopt regulations to implement and enforce the requirements of § 328 of the federal Clean Air Act relating to requirements to control air pollution from Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) sources located offshore of the Commonwealth. The regulations may not differ materially from the regulations promulgated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in implementing § 328 of the Clean Air Act (40 CFR Part 55). Accordingly, 9VAC5-20-21 (Documents Incorporated by Reference) was amended to add 40 CFR Part 55. Subsequently, EPA informed the department that three specific sections of 40 CFR Part 55 were not delegable to the states--§ 55.5 (Corresponding onshore area designation), § 55.11 (Delegation), and § 55.12 (Consistency Updates)--because, as stated in 40 CFR 55.11(a), the authority to implement and enforce those provisions will not be delegated by EPA. This regulatory action clarifies that those provisions are not incorporated. The department is requesting approval of draft final regulation amendments that meet federal statutory and regulatory requirements. Approval of the amendments will ensure that the Commonwealth will be able to meet its obligations under the federal Clean Air Act. |
