Purpose: The goal of this rule making is four-fold.

Second is to revise to better reflect current implementation and improve clarity for the outdoor burning, agricultural burning, and asbestos programs along with the fugitive dust requirements. Third is to newly adopt by reference two New Source Performance Standard (NSPS) and three National Emissions Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) along with two other federal programs. Fourth is to update the effectiveness dates under NWCAA 104 to ensure the most recent versions of the referenced regulations are adopted.
