EPA is also proposing a limited approval and limited disapproval of the State Implementation Plan (SIP) revision for the Rusk-Panola area. EPA is proposing a limited disapproval because the SIP contains a force majeure clause that, if triggered, is such that the emissions limitations are not continuously applicable or enforceable.
