What the agency says
Pursuant to the Federal Clean Air Act (CAA or the Act), the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to disapprove revisions to the Texas State Implementation Plan (SIP). The revisions were submitted by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ or State) on November 27, 2018, to address CAA requirements for the Houston-Galveston-Brazoria (HGB) area relevant to the 1979 1-hour ozone national ambient air quality standard (NAAQS or standard). The EPA approved most portions of this submission on February 14, 2020. In this current action, we are proposing to disapprove the remaining portions not addressed in the February 14, 2020 action. This submission, titled "Severe Ozone Nonattainment Area Failure to Attain Fee," addresses the CAA section 185 requirement for fee collection programs, which applies to ozone nonattainment areas classified as Severe or Extreme that fail to attain by the required attainment date.
