Proposed Massachusetts SIP Revision: 8-Hour Ozone Attainment Demonstration

The Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MassDEP) in December 2007 proposed for public review and comment a State Iimplementation Plan (SIP) for attaining the federal 8-hour National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) for ground-level ozone. See the Final SIP Revision.
