EPA 400-K-92-004 &EFA United States Environmental Protection Agency Office of Air and Radiation (ANR-443) 400-K-92-004 July 1992 Air Implementation Strategy ior the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 (Update, 1992) ------- UNITED STATES ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY WASHINGTON, D.C. 20460 JUL 24 !992 OFFICE OF AIR AND RADIATION Honorable William K. Reilly Administrator U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Washington, D.C. 20460 Dear Mr. Reilly: Enclosed is the updated two-year implementation strategy for the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990. The strategy outlines our priorities for the remainder of 1992 and for 1993. Since the President signed the Clean Air Act Amendments in November 1990, we have made great strides in carrying out the requirements of the Act. In 1991 we completed more than 40 regulatory actions. When fully implemented, these actions will achieve three-fourths of the entire pollution reduction envisioned in the Act. For the remainder of 1992, we have set forth an ambitious agenda proposing to complete twice the number of actions in 1992 than we completed in 1991. We will continue to use the principles established in our initial strategy as the foundation for implementing the new Act. We will apply market-based approaches to achieve pollution reduction goals while supporting strong and sustainable economic growth. We will solicit input from all interested parties-other governmental organizations, industry, environmental groups, and academics~in creating innovative strategies to efficiently execute statutory requirements. State and local governments will continue to play an essential and increasing role in implementation of the new Act, consistent with the fundamental thrust of the Act for control programs tailored to the characteristics of each area. In 1992 we will encourage State and local officials to adopt consensus building and market-based strategies in their own implementation efforts. The OAR is increasing significantly its outreach programs to State and local governments in 1992. The revised two-year strategy highlights key activities completed in 1991 and planned for 1992. The strategy also reiterates our implementation principles and provides an overview of the approaches that we will use to guide and carry out our activities in the most effective fashion. Finally, the strategy displays on a month-by- month basis the major milestones associated with each title of the Act for 1992 and 1993. Printed on Recycled Paper ------- -2- We will review and update the activities in this strategy on an annual basis as we continue our efforts to achieve timely completion of the provisions of the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has charged its Office of Air and Radiation (OAR) with the critical task of developing and overseeing the Agency's implementation strategy for the CAAA. OAR's highest priority«and its greatest challenge-for fiscal year 1992 will be the continued implementation of the CAAA. OAR has identified its four most important goals: To bring all cities into health standards attainment; To cut air toxic emissions by 75 percent; To reduce sulfur dioxide emissions by 10 million tons; and To phase out 100 percent of chlorofluorocarbons (CFC's) by the year 1995. EPA is committed to implement the new Act as cost-effectively as possible, and to ensure that its strategy is fully consistent with national energy and economic policies. The implementation of the amendments will not only employ traditional approaches for controlling air pollution, but also use the power of the marketplace, encourage local initiatives, and emphasize pollution prevention. ------- Implementation Strategy for the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 (Update, 1992) OAR's implementation of the new Act is based on a two-year strategy, which is updated each year. Attachment A shows the major milestones that occur through 1993, and notes the completion status for each milestone at the time of this report's publication. The remainder of this report will focus on the Agency's progress to date and on the activities that must occur in fiscal year 1992 to ensure effective implementation of the CAAA. Environmental Priorities - Building on our Successes in 1992 In the year since the new Clean Air Act was signed, OAR has developed rules that will achieve three-quarters of the entire pollution reduction envisioned in the Act. When fully implemented, the rules already proposed or in place will remove approximately 41 billion of an expected 56 billion pounds of air pollutants per year. (See Figure 1.) 56 Billion Pounds to be Reduced by All Act Provisions Proposals and Promulgations to Date 41 Billion Pounds Addressed So Far Figure 1 In the second year of CAAA implementation, the Agency will take even greater strides toward cleaning the nation's air and preserving the health of our environment for future generations. OAR's two-year plan includes 92 specific actions for FY 1992, as compared to 40 completed in FY 1991. Its major effort in 1992 will be to move CAAA implementation out to all of the states. ------- Introduction The CAAA requires EPA to promulgate more than 120 regulations by 1995, an average of 24 rules per year. Previously, OAR averaged five to eight rules per year. OAR must also conduct major research programs and carry out more than 90 studies.

Guided by the implementation principles shown on page 5, OAR made every effort to base its regulations on innovative, market-based methods, achieving the goals of the Clean Air Act while supporting economic growth and sound energy policy. OAR sought outside help in this process through a massive program of consultation with groups who would be affected by the regulations, ranging from formal regulatory negotiations to informal meetings with interested groups. It worked closely with industry and environmental organizations, other Federal agencies, and State and local governments. In 1992, OAR will continue on this path, basing regulations on market principles wherever possible, and seeking broad consensus on the design of the rules. As the program shifts more toward implementation in the field, a key element of OAR strategy will be to continue to encourage State and local agencies to adopt consensus building and market-based strategies for their own implementation efforts. OAR has already ------- Implementation Strategy for the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 (Update, 1992) supplied major assistance to California, helping the State develop its Regional Clean Air Incentives Market (RECLAIM) program. This innovative initiative will help Los Angeles control smog by applying a market-based emissions trading program. ------- Implementation Principles IMPLEMENTATION PRINCIPLES ."..... ACT * The Promise of the Clean Air Act "Every American expects and deserves to breathe clean air * - President Bush 4> The following principles will guide the Agency as we turn the promise of the Act into a legacy of clean air. Policy E3: Achieve and maintain a healthy environment, while supporting strong and sustainable economic growth and sound energy policy. Market-based Strategies: Use market-based approaches and other innovative strategies to solve environmental problems creatively. Build Consensus Joint Venture: Recognize the essential role played by State and local governments. Negotiate: Use negotiation techniques to resolve critical issues with other interested parties, including other government organizations, industry, environmental groups, and academics. Federal Coordination: Work closely with EPA Offices, other Federal agencies, and the Congress to ensure a coordinated approach that will achieve environmental objectives as effectively as possible. Management Deadlines: Establish and meet commitments to effectively implement key provisions of the Act, * Team Effort: Work together; attract and retain a diverse and talented workforce, ------- Implementation Strategy fortite Clem AirAct Amendments of 1990 (Update, 1992) ------- Key CAAA Actions UE₯ CAM ACHONS IN Clean Fuels: EPA negotiated regulatory agreements on reformulated gasoline and oxygenated fuels. The resulting rules will reduce tailpipe emissions by requiring the use of oxygenated fuel in areas that are nonattainment for carbon monoxide by November of 1992 and, starting in 1995, require the use of reformulated gasoline in severe ozone nonattainment areas. Acid Rain: EPA proposed a clean air rule that will cut emissions of sulfur dioxide, a major contributor to acid rain, by 50 percent. This is a product of the Acid Rain Advisory Committee, a diverse group representing utilities, state regulators, environmental and consumer groups, the coal and gas industry, and others. Visibility: On September 18, 1991 EPA promulgated controls on Arizona's Navajo Generating Station. EPA also established a visibility transport commission to identify and evaluate sources and source regions that affect the visibility of the Grand Canyon National Park. In 1993, EPA and the National Park Service will issue an interim report. Clean Air Act Advisory Committee: The Clean Air Act Advisory Committee (CAAAC) was established in November of 1990 to provide high-level, independent advice to EPA on policy issues related to implementation of the 1990 Clean Air Act Amendments. The CAAAC is comprised of 50 senior representatives from State and local governments, academic institutions, unions, environmental and public interest groups, and industries. ------- Implementation Strategy for the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 (Update, 1992) 8 ------- OAR Communication Themes OAR COMMUNICATION THEMES During 1992, OAR communication efforts will highlight and focus on the following four Communications Themes as we implement our activities.
