The American Petroleum Institute (API) represents over 400 member companies involved in all aspects of the oil and natural gas industry. API is pleased to submit the following comments on the Particulate Matter National Ambient Air Quality Standards: Scope and Methods Plan for Urban Visibility Impact Assessment (PM UVIA Plan). A review of PM UVIA Plan to study visual air quality (VAQ) in urban areas raises questions as to whether it is necessary, practical, or feasible for EPA to establish a welfare-based particulate standard that protects urban visibility.
