Can EPA review and approve more quickly a full SIP revision that incorporates by reference the part 96 model trading rules than one that doesn incorporate by reference?
Yes. EPA’s review is simplified to the extent a full SIP revision incorporates by reference provisions of a part 96 model rule. For example, a state whose SIP revision adopts by reference the model trading rules, except for the provisions for which the model rules allow flexibility, will greatly simplify EPA’s review and will potentially enable EPA to approve the SIP revision more quickly.
