    New York-Northern New Jersey-Long Island, NY-NJ-CT Nonattainment Area Final Area Designations for the 2015 Ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standards Technical Support Document (TSD) 1.0 Summary This technical support document (TSD) describes the EPA’s final designation for the counties of Fairfield, New Haven and Middlesex in the state of Connecticut; the counties of Bergen, Essex, Hudson, Hunterdon, Middlesex, Monmouth, Morris, Passaic, Somerset, Sussex, Union and Warren in the state of New Jersey; and the counties of Bronx, Kings, Nassau, New York, Queens, Richmond, Rockland, Suffolk and Westchester in the state of New York as nonattainment, and include them in a single nonattainment area, for the 2015 ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS). We refer to this nonattainment area as the New York- Northern New Jersey-Long Island, NY-NJ-CT Nonattainment Area, also referred to as the New York Metro nonattainment Area. On October 1, 2015, the EPA promulgated revised primary and secondary ozone NAAQS (80 FR 65292; October 26, 2015). The EPA strengthened both standards to a level of 0.070 parts per million (ppm). In accordance with Section 107(d) of the Clean Air Act (CAA), whenever the EPA establishes a new or revised NAAQS, the EPA must promulgate designations for all areas of the country for that NAAQS. Under section 107(d), states were required to submit area designation recommendations to the EPA for the 2015 ozone NAAQS no later than 1 year following promulgation of the standards, i.e., by October 1, 2016. Tribes were also invited to submit area designation recommendations.

  • Washington, D.C. Update – September 2016
    GOVERNMENT RELATIONS AND PUBLIC POLICY September 2016 This is an advertisement. Washington, D.C. Update Clinton and Trump: A Policy Comparison This month, we have a special edition of the Baker Donelson Washington Update focusing on what to expect from the 45th President of the United States. Of course we are all waiting on the November election to find out whether that will be Secretary Hillary Clinton or Mr. Donald Trump; in the meantime, we will examine a number of the candidates’ statements, proposals and announced transition teams to get a sense of what we can expect when a new president is sworn into office on January 20, 2017. Here is what is included in this month’s Washington Update: • Taxes – Clinton and Trump Propose Diametrically Opposed Tax Plans • Trade and Investment – A Rare Area of Agreement on TPP • The Economy – Two Differing Ways to Grow the Economy and Create Shared Prosperity • Energy and Environment – Opposites on Oil, Gas and Coal; Potential Overlap in Nuclear Power • Health Care – The Fight Over the ACA Continues • Presidential Transition Teams Regarding the potential for a long-term budget and appropriations deal or the future of defense spending, other than a commitment by Secretary Clinton to provide “budgetary certainty to facilitate reforms and enable long-term planning,” these issues have not been meaningfully addressed by either campaign. For additional information regarding the current budget decisions, please see the Washington, D.C. Fall Preview in which we examined the FY17 appropriations process and discussed the future of defense policy with former Vice Chief of Staff of the Air Force retired General Carrol “Howie” Chandler.
