§ 650.93 - EPA Air Pollution Project review.

(a) The following type projects require review by the EPA Regional administrator for compliance with air pollution control standards prior to the initiation of construction:

(1) Large industrial or manufacturing facilities.

(2) Certain new parking facilities to be constructed in areas covered by Standard Metropolitan Statistical Areas and Transportation Control Plans (38 major urban areas) are subject to preconstruction review by the EPA Regional Administrator (40 CFR part 52). A review is required for parking facilities having a capacity of 250 or more vehicles, or where special restrictions are imposed on any additional parking. In such instances, an EPA permit must be obtained for new or modification of existing parking facilities which results in a net increase of 250 or more spaces when construction commences after January 1, 1975 or when a construction contract is signed after January 1, 1975. The basic references for State implementation plans and Transportation Control Plans are 40 CFR part 51 and 40 CFR part 52 respectively.

(b) At the request of the installation commander, such reviews may be coordinated with the Regional EPA office by the supporting Corps of Engineers District Office.
