The Environmental Protection Agency has approved changes to how New Hampshire defines certain types of air pollution. Specifically, the state is updating its definitions for “hazardous air pollutant” and “regulated air pollutant.”
Why it matters: This is a technical administrative update intended to keep state regulations consistent with federal law. It changes how certain pollutants are categorized in paperwork, but it does not create new pollution limits or change existing permit rules.
Who it affects
- Industrial facilities in New Hampshire that hold air quality permits
This action was taken by the EPA and can be verified through the Federal Register.
