1. Identification of all regulated pollutants affected by the plan.	

1.8-Hour Ozone	X



2. Identification of the locations of affected sources including the EPA
attainment/nonattainment designation of the locations and the status of
the attainment plan for the affected area(s).	

2.  Applies to York (York and Adams Counties), Pennsylvania.	X



3. Quantification of the changes in plan allowable emissions from the
affected sources; estimates of changes in current actual emissions from
affected sources or, where appropriate, quantification of changes in

differences between certain baseline levels and allowable emissions
anticipated as a result of the revision.	

3.  An updated allowable emissions inventory was provided along with
submittal.	X

standards, prevention of significant deterioration increments,

4.   The state has developed a current and projected (2002, 2004, 2009,
and 2018) emissions inventory showing attainment o the national ambient

X



5. Modeling information required to support the proposed revision,
including input data, output data, models used,  ambient monitoring data
used, meteorological data used, justification for use of offsite data
(where used), modes of models used, assumptions, and other information
relevant to the determination of adequacy of the modeling analysis.

7.  Evidence is shown that PADEP will do period emission inventory
updates and analysis.	

X



8. Compliance/enforcement strategies, including how compliance will be
