RESOLUTION IN SUPPORT OF AN EARLY SUBMITTAL OF AN 8-HOUR STATE IMPLEMENTATION PLAN THAT, TO THE LARGEST EXTENT POSSIBLE, RELIES ON REASONABLY AVAILABLE AND PRACTICABLY ENFORCEABLE LOCAL AND REGIONAL EMISSION REDUCTIONS TO EXPEDITIOUSLY MEET AIR QUALITY STANDARDS WHEREAS, exposure to ozone pollution above the current federal standard has been identified as a serious public health threat in the Dallas-Fort Worth (DFW) Region, resulting in premature deaths, respiratory illness, heart disease and other injurious medical conditions among residents in the region; and, WHEREAS, the public health harms associated with increased exposure to ozone pollution have been tied to increased medical costs for individuals, government and businesses, lost school days for students and lost productivity for employers; and, WHEREAS, DFW’s status as a nonattainment area for ozone pollution has the potential to hinder recruitment of desirable businesses; and, WHEREAS, it is the stated goal of local governments to be in compliance with the Clean Air Act and to become an attainment area for ozone pollution in an expeditious manner; and, WHEREAS, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the DFW Blue Skies Alliance, Downwinders At Risk, Public Citizen-TX and the Sierra Club (“the groups”) have concluded a lawsuit in federal court amicably with an historic consent decree on air quality, and parallel good faith agreements between the groups, EPA, the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ), and Collin and Tarrant Counties; and, WHEREAS, the primary goal of each of these negotiated documents is to submit a State Implementation Plan (SIP) for ozone to EPA before the June 15, 2007 deadline that meets the 8-hour ozone standard as expeditiously as practicable, including the goal to achieve attainment in advance of the statutory deadline of June 2010, if possible; and, WHEREAS, the specific agreement signed by the groups and TCEQ’s commissioners recognizes “the advantages of maintaining focus, effort, and direction towards promptly developing, adopting, and implementing a SIP revision that addresses the 8-hour ozone standard;” and, WHEREAS, the specific agreement between the groups and TCEQ states that “The Executive Director will consider implementing control measures for the DFW 8-hour nonattainment area prior to the statutory, or any other agreed-upon earlier deadline for the submittal of an 8-hour attainment demonstration SIP, if those measures are clearly identified as being reasonably available, practically enforceable, and needed to contribute to the emission reductions necessary to achieve timely attainment of the 8-hour ozone standard in the DFW 8-hour nonattainment area;” and,
WHEREAS, the U.S. House of Representatives has amended to the current Energy Policy Act of 2005 a provision, entitled, “SEC. 1443. ATTAINMENT DATES FOR DOWNWIND OZONE NONATTAINMENT AREAS” that would amend Section 181 of the Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. §7511), to allow extension of attainment dates for what the provision defines as “downwind areas” to correspond with attainment deadlines for any other nonattainment areas or an area in any state found to be “significantly contributing” to the downwind area’s ozone problem, which are defined as “upwind areas;” and, WHEREAS, §1443 of the Energy Policy Act of 2005 does not quantitatively define the term “significantly contributing,” leaving it to the discretion of the EPA Administrator to make that determination for a “downwind area” and allowing a state to apply for this extension in place of more effective air pollution control measures; and, WHEREAS, national ozone precursor transport concerns are now being addressed through the EPA’s Clean Air Interstate Rule. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT KNOWN THAT THE NORTH TEXAS CLEAN AIR STEERING COMMITTEE: Section 1. Supports the air quality agreements signed between the groups and local, state and federal government, and endorses their goal of submitting a SIP for DFW before the June 15, 2007, deadline and achieving healthful air quality for DFW residents as expeditiously as practicable. Section 2. Requests that TCEQ focus its efforts on developing and submitting an adequate SIP for the 8-hour ozone standard that relies to the highest extent possible on local and regional emission reductions that can reasonably be expected to achieve attainment in the DFW area on or prior to June 2010. Section 3. Desires for TCEQ to use items 1 and 2 as its guiding principles and to
law, after it has included every reasonably available and practically enforceable local and regional control measure in its new 8-Hour Ozone SIP and has required these control measures to be implemented as rapidly as possible.
