DAR File No.: 41220
Filed: 01/27/2017 09:05:51 AM

NOTICE OF REVIEW AND STATEMENT OF CONTINUATION

Concise explanation of the particular statutory provisions under which the rule is enacted and how these provisions authorize or require the rule:

Subsection 19-2-104(1)(a) authorizes the Air Quality Board to make rules "regarding the control, abatement, and prevention of air pollution from all sources and the establishment of the maximum quantity of air contaminants that may be emitted by any air contaminants source." Rule R307-335 does this by establishing reasonably available control technology for degreasing and solvent cleaning operations located in ozone nonattainment or maintenance areas.

Summary of written comments received during and since the last five-year review of the rule from interested persons supporting or opposing the rule:

This rule has been amended four times since the last five-year review. Although there were a few comments submitted on how to improve the rule, there were no comments opposing or supporting the rule.

Reasoned justification for continuation of the rule, including reasons why the agency disagrees with comments in opposition to the rule, if any:

The rule is required under the state implementation plan for ozone, incorporated by reference under Section R307-110-13. The plan is required by Section 110 of the Clean Air Act, and without the rule the EPA would have to write a Federal Implementation Plan. Therefore, this rule should be continued.
