Attached is a new EPA communication in which they list State Implementation Plan provisions that are approved, others not approved and others that are still in limbo, some of those at the request of the State.

DEQ’s Dave Klemp, who heads the Air Resources Bureau say they are beginning an analysis of EPA’s decisions and will want to discuss their conclusions with industry when they can complete their evaluation.
