Document Description
Rules 202 and 214 contain permitting requirements for new and modified air pollution sources, including requirements to install the Best Available Control Technology (BACT) and to mitigate emissions increases. Rule 202 contains both state and federal requirements, and Rule 214 contains the federal requirements that are necessary for approval into the State Implementation Plan.
These amendments meet federal statutory requirements related to reclassification of the District's ozone nonattainment status and recent designation as a PM2.5 nonattainment area. The reclassification of federal 8-hour ozone nonattainment status to "severe-15" requires the District to submit a rule that meets more stringent permitting requirements.
