Order No.: DEQ 12-2013 Filed with Sec. of State: 12-19-2013 Certified to be Effective: 12-19-13 Notice Publication Date: 8-1-2013 Rules Amended: 340-200-0040 Subject: The Environmental Quality Commission approved an amendment to the Portland Area Carbon Monoxide Maintenance Plan that DEQ will submit to the Environmental Protection Agency. The plan update substitutes a new transportation control measure for increasing regional transit service to replace the original transit service control measure. Both the new and the old measures require transit service in the Portland area to be expanded one percent per year. The new measure assesses the average transit service increase over the cumulative life of the ten-year Portland area’s plan to improve air quality, instead of a five-year rolling average. By operation of law under 42 USC § 7506(c)(8), the substitute transportation control measure becomes part of the Oregon State Implementation Plan and will be federally enforceable. U.S. EPA will not conduct a separate public notice process
