Section 104 of the Clean Air Act (Act) Amendments of 1990 (CAAA) amends Part D of Title I of the Act by adding additional provisions for carbon monoxide (CO) nonattainment areas (Subpart 3). Sections 186 and 187 pertain to the classification of CO nonattainment areas and to the submission requirements of the State implementation plans (SIP's) for these areas, respectively. This document provides the States with guidance in developing their SIP for the moderate and serious CO nonattainment areas under their administration. This document should be used in conjunction with discussions between the States and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Regional Office staffs and with other relevant EPA offices, as well as with the appropriate referenced EPA materials. The purpose of this guidance is to provide technical specifications to support the policy presented in the 'General Preamble: Implementation of Title I CAAA of 1990' (57 FR 13948).
