Book excerpt: Regional Haze Regulations - Revisions to Provisions Governing Alternative to Source-Specific Best Available Retrofit Technology (BART) Determinations (US Environmental Protection Agency Regulation) (EPA) (2018 Edition) The Law Library presents the complete text of the Regional Haze Regulations - Revisions to Provisions Governing Alternative to Source-Specific Best Available Retrofit Technology (BART) Determinations (US Environmental Protection Agency Regulation) (EPA) (2018 Edition). Updated as of May 29, 2018 The EPA promulgated regulations to address a type of visibility impairment known as regional haze in 1999. These regulations have been judicially challenged twice. On May 24, 2002, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit issued a ruling vacating the Regional Haze Rule in part and sustaining it in part, based on a finding that EPA's prescribed methods for determining best available retrofit technology (BART) were inconsistent with the Clean Air Act (CAA). American Corn Growers Ass'n v. EPA, 291 F.3d 1 (DC Cir. 2002). We finalized a rule on July 6, 2005 addressing the court's ruling in this case. On February 18, 2005, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit issued another ruling, in Center for Energy and Economic Development v. EPA, 398 F.3d 653(DC Cir. 2005), granting a petition challenging provisions of the Regional Haze Rule governing an optional emissions trading program for certain western States and Tribes (the Western Regional Air Partnership (WRAP) Annex Rule). We published proposed regulations to revise the provisions of the Regional Haze Rule governing alternative trading programs, and to provide additional guidance on such programs in August 2005. We received several comments on the August 2005 proposal. This final rule finalizes the proposed revisions, including changes in response to the public comments.
