The Environmental Protection Agency is finalizing its approval of changes to Oklahoma’s state air quality plan. These updates cover the New Source Review program, which regulates permits for new or modified industrial facilities, and general provisions for how the state handles air permits.
Why it matters: This action is largely administrative. It confirms that Oklahoma’s updated air permitting rules align with federal standards. For most people and businesses, this means no immediate change in how permits are issued or enforced, but it ensures the state program remains valid under federal law.
