1:00 p.m.
The Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE), Air Quality Division (AQD), will hold a
public hearing on Monday, July 1, 2019, at Constitution Hall, Erickson Conference Room, at 1:00 p.m. The hearing will
be held to receive public comments on proposed changes to the Part 4. Emissions Limitations and Prohibitions – Sulfur
Bearing Compounds.
The proposed rule set (2017-062 EG) will amend the current rules to clarify which testing methods and federal standards
are applicable to the rules and remove a redundant definition. Once approved, the rules will be submitted as an
amendment to the Michigan State Implementation Plan (SIP). The comment period and hearing will fulfill requirements
contained in the state administrative rules and result in a revision to Michigan’s SIP under the federal Clean Air Act.
These rules are promulgated by authority conferred on the Director of EGLE by Section 5512 of the Natural Resources
and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended, MCL 324.5512. These rules will take immediate effect
upon filing with the Secretary of State.
The rules (2017-062 EG) are published on the Michigan Office of Administrative Hearings and Rules’ Web site at
