76. REVISIONS TO REASONABLY AVAILABLE CONTROL TECHNOLOGY STATE IMPLEMENTATION PLAN AND NEGATIVE DECLARATIONS Pursuant to A.R.S. §49-479(b), set a public hearing for May 24, 2017, to solicit comments and consider the adoption of the submittal of the Reasonably Available Control Technology (RACT) State Implementation Plan (SIP) and negative declarations to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as a revision to the (Arizona) SIP. Following the public hearing, the Board is requested to approve the submittal of the RACT SIP and negative declarations to the EPA as a revision to the (Arizona) SIP. Upon Board approval, this item will become effective May 24, 2017. The RACT SIP is an analysis made by the Maricopa County Air Quality Department (MCAQD) that concludes that the MCAQD has fulfilled the requirements of RACT, as applicable to the 2008 eight-hour ozone national ambient air quality standards (NAAQS) for all Control Techniques Guidelines (CTG) source categories and for all major sources of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and nitrogen oxides (NOx). RACT is the lowest emissions limitation that a particular source is capable of meeting by the application of control technology that is reasonably available considering technological and economic feasibility. CTGs, issued by the EPA, are intended to provide States information that should assist them in determining RACT for source categories. In instances where either there were no sources in Maricopa County in a particular CTG source category or where there were no sources exceeding the CTG applicability threshold, the MCAQD made a negative declaration regarding such CTG source category; negative declarations are included in the RACT SIP. Permit fees are not changing due to this action. (C-85-17-018-M-00)
