40 CFR Part 81

[EPA-R05-OAR-2016-0277; FRL-9960-91-Region 5]


Reclassification of the Sheboygan, Wisconsin Area To Moderate 
Nonattainment for the 2008 Ozone National Ambient Air Quality 
Standards; Correction

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Final rule; correction.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) published a final 
rule in the Federal Register on December 19, 2016, revising its 
regulations entitled ``Designation of Areas for Air Quality Planning 
Purposes'' for the 2008 ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standards 
(NAAQS). An error in the table for the Wisconsin 2008 8-Hour Ozone 
NAAQS is identified and corrected in this action.

DATES: This final rule is effective on April 6, 2017.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Kathleen D'Agostino, Environmental 
Scientist, Attainment Planning and Maintenance Section, Air Programs 
Branch (AR-18J), Environmental Protection Agency, Region 5, 77 West 
Jackson Boulevard, Chicago, Illinois 60604, (312) 886-1767, 
[email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: EPA published a final rule document on 
December 19, 2016, (81 FR 91841) updating 40 CFR part 81, ``Designation 
of Areas for Air Quality Planning Purposes'' for the 2008 8-Hour Ozone 
NAAQS. This final rule included a revision to 40 CFR 81.350 
reclassifying the Sheboygan, Wisconsin area (Sheboygan County) as 
``moderate'' nonattainment for the 2008 ozone NAAQS. The entry for the 
Sheboygan County designated area in the Wisconsin-2008 8-Hour Ozone 
NAAQS (Primary and secondary) table erroneously indicated that the 
effective date of the classification is January 18, 2017 when, in fact, 
the effective date should have been December 19, 2016. 81 FR 91846. 
Therefore, the entry for the Sheboygan County area is being corrected 
to reflect the correct classification date.
