The proposed rule would provide de minimus air quality benefits in downwind areas with extremely high costs – estimated by EPA at $22 billion discounted 2016 dollars for the 2023-2042 period. The agency’s air quality modeling indicates that most areas would receive an ozone reduction of less than 0.1 ppb by 2025.

discussing the ways in which local air districts can take action to end harmful air pollution from building appliances. As we explained in our brief, under the federal Clean Air Act, states are required to submit SIPs detailing strategies to come into attainment with federal air quality standards for pollutants like ozone and PM2.5.

The IRA gave us effective tools for cleaning up the power sector through dedicated support for the rapid and widescale deployment of renewable resources and the technologies that support them. Section 111 of the Clean Air Act constrains how EPA sets standards—but gives states wide latitude in implementation.

Ohio EPA has proposed rules that will require additional Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) and Nitrogen Oxide (NOx) emission controls for certain manufacturing and industrial operations located in the Cincinnati and Cleveland 2015 ozone nonattainment areas. Like VOCs, NOx is a precursor compound which can form ozone.
