Base Programs and National/Regional Priorities Sample Clauses

Base Programs and National/Regional Priorities. The base programs are those areas of the air program that continue every day to ensure clean air in the state. This element of the air program includes, for example, air monitoring and analysis and speciation of fine PM. National/regional priorities are those specific areas of air pollution control that U.S. EPA or Region 5 has identified as deserving of particular attention. • Air Monitoring - The Bureau of Air will compile a complete and valid air quality database sufficient to meet program needs and U.S. EPA's requirements. We will operate the air- monitoring network pursuant to U.S. EPA’s guidelines. It is important that federal funding pursuant to Section 103 be continued and is timely. We will work with Region 5 to conduct audits on CEMs. • State Permitting - The Bureau of Air will continue to process construction and “lifetime” operating permit applications for state (non-Title V/non-FESOP) sources and provide proposed construction permits to Region 5 as appropriate. • PM2.5 – The Bureau has prepared and submitted the 2002 base year inventory for PM2.5 and its precursors. This inventory will be the basis for future rate-of-progress plans, and modeling analyses for PM2.5 and regional haze. • PM10 Illinois EPA has submitted final maintenance plans for the Lake Calumet and Xxxxx Township PM10 non-attainment areas. USEPA has published a direct final rule to approve the maintenance plans and re-designate both areas to attainment. Assuming no adverse comments, the area will be re-designated to attainment and this process will be completed. • Regional Haze/BART - The Bureau of Air has worked with the Lake Michigan Air Directors Consortium and Midwest Regional Planning Organization (LADCO) and other midwestern states to develop and actively participate in a process to address the requirements of the 1999 Regional Haze Rule. The Bureau of Air will continue to participate in conferences and workshops necessary to address regional haze. The Bureau of Air and LADCO have worked with U.S. EPA to develop modeling approaches to address the impacts of BART-eligible sources. We have compiled lists of potential BART sources in Illinois and are continuing to work to refine the lists. The Illinois EPA is working with LADCO’s contractors to begin the process of performing requisite “engineering analyses” required under XXXX. We have prepared and mailed surveys to over 200 potential BART sources to refine our information regarding start-up dates for affected units. We hav...

Base Programs and National/Regional Priorities. Although the four program areas listed above are very focused priorities, the base programs must continue to function so as to maintain the progress we have achieved thus far both in the area of ozone reductions and with regard to other pollutants, such as sulfur dioxide (SO2) and particulate matter (PM). Such base programs include air monitoring, state permitting and data management, among others. Although many of the activities implementing Illinois EPA’s pollution prevention and small business programs are carried out by Field Operations Section inspectors and Permit Section analysts, coordination of these programs within the Bureau of Air is included in Base Programs. At the same time, there are key national and regional initiatives that should be included in our priorities, such as deployment of speciation monitoring network to assess fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and regional haze.
