Tribal New Source Review Implementation Manual (May 2012)
The EPA developed the Tribal New Source Review (NSR) Implementation Manual as a resource tool to support understanding and implementation of the Federal Indian Country Minor NSR rule. It is a comprehensive, informational and instructional document developed to guide you and the EPA regions in working collaboratively and in facilitating a transparent process. In an attempt to promote a common understanding of the NSR process, we have included some general information on air quality, explanations of specific rules, related processes and template materials. These materials are intended to assist you and the EPA regions in implementing the Federal Indian Country Minor NSR rule. The document is a living document that may be revised periodically without public notice. While we have done our best to ensure that the information contained within the document is factually accurate, in the event that information provided is inconsistent with relevant regulatory and/or statutory provision(s), the regulatory and/or statutory provision(s) are the guiding authorities. Below is the complete manual for downloading.
