Approvals and Promulgations of Implementation Plans - Montana - State Implementation Plan and Regional Haze Federal Implementation Plan (US Environmental Protection Agency Regulation) (EPA) (2018 Edition) The Law Library presents the complete text of the Approvals and Promulgations of Implementation Plans - Montana - State Implementation Plan and Regional Haze Federal Implementation Plan (US Environmental Protection Agency Regulation) (EPA) (2018 Edition). Updated as of May 29, 2018 The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is promulgating a Federal Implementation Plan (FIP) to address regional haze in the State of Montana. EPA developed this FIP in response to the State's decision in 2006 to not submit a regional haze State Implementation Plan (SIP) revision. The FIP satisfies requirements of the Clean Air Act (CAA or "the Act") that require states, or EPA in promulgating a FIP, to assure reasonable progress towards the national goal of preventing any future and remedying any existing man-made impairment of visibility in mandatory Class I areas. In addition, EPA is approving one of the revisions to the Montana SIP submitted by the State of Montana through the Montana Department of Environmental Quality on February 17, 2012, specifically, the revision to the Montana Visibility Plan that includes amendments to the "Smoke Management" section, which adds a reference to Best Available Control Technology (BACT) as the visibility control measure for open burning as currently administered through the State's air quality permit program. This change was made to meet the requirements of the Regional Haze Rule. EPA will act on the remaining February 17, 2012 revisions in the State's submittal in a future action.
