| Purpose of the meeting A public hearing to receive comments on a proposed revision to the State Implementation Plan and whether the plan will enable the northern Virginia area to continue to meet obligations under the Clean Air Act (CAA). The purpose of this SIP revision is to amend the ozone attainment and maintenance plans for the portions of Virginia that are part of the Ozone Transport Region (OTR) such that Stage II vapor recovery systems (VRS) are no longer required after December 31, 2013. Since the original development of these plans, EPA has determined that onboard refueling vapor recovery (ORVR) is in widespread use and therefore no longer needed for ozone control in OTR localities that can further demonstrate that the removal of Stage II will not interfere with maintenance of the ozone NAAQS. The Commonwealth has determined that Stage II is no longer needed in the area's plans, and that removing this control requirement does not interfere with maintenance of any ozone NAAQS. The public comment period begins on February 10, 2014 and ends on March 14, 2014. | |
