Section 2175.550  Clean Air Act Fast-Track Rulemaking

Under Section 28.5 of the Act [415 ILCS 5/28.5], the Board may adopt rules proposed by the Agency that are required to be adopted by the State under the Clean Air Act as amended by the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 (CAAA).  A "fast-track" rulemaking proceeding is a proceeding to promulgate a rule that the CAAA requires to be adopted.  For purposes of this type of rulemaking, "requires to be adopted" refers only to those regulations or parts of regulations for which USEPA is empowered to impose sanctions against the State for failure to adopt such rules [415 ILCS 5/28.5(a) and (c)].
