Abstract
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is approving a regional haze State Implementation Plan (SIP) revision submitted by Tennessee Department of Environmental Conservation (TDEC), dated February 23, 2022, ("Haze Plan" or "2022 Plan"), as satisfying applicable requirements under the Clean Air Act (CAA or Act) and EPA's Regional Haze Rule (RHR) for the regional haze program's second planning period. Tennessee's SIP submission addresses the requirement that states must periodically revise their long-term strategies (LTSs) for making reasonable progress toward the national goal of preventing any future, and remedying any existing, anthropogenic impairment of visibility, including regional haze, in mandatory Class I Federal areas (hereinafter referred to as "Class I areas"). The SIP submission also addresses other applicable requirements for the second planning period of the regional haze program. EPA is taking this action pursuant to sections 110 and 169A of the Act.
