What changed
EPA Region 5 submitted a SIP revision for Canton, Ohio (EPA-R05-OAR-2024-0461) incorporating Appendix G, which ties the SIP's lead emissions reduction requirements to the terms of an existing federal consent decree. The consent decree creates legally enforceable obligations and compliance deadlines for the responsible parties, with oversight by EPA. The SIP revision codifies these obligations into the state's air quality plan under Section 110 of the Clean Air Act.
Affected parties subject to the Canton lead SIP and consent decree must monitor the EPA docket for the complete decree terms and comply with specified emission reduction milestones. Regulated industrial sources in the Canton area with lead emissions should assess their compliance obligations under both the SIP and the decree, as violations of the SIP may trigger enforcement under the consent decree.
What to do next
- Monitor EPA Region 5 SIP docket for the complete consent decree terms
- Ensure compliance with Canton lead SIP emission reduction schedules
- Coordinate with Ohio EPA on SIP implementation and reporting
