  2. What’s a “STIP”? • Combination of a State Implementation Plan (SIP) & Tribal Implementation Plan (TIP)

  3. Background • Project first discussed at WRAP Air Managers Committee in July 2002. • Realization that States & Tribes need help preparing first regional haze plan under Section 309, to meet Dec. 2003 deadline. • Can build upon the SIP/TIP template developed by the WESTAR Regional Haze SIP/TIP Working Group in 2000.

  4. Objectives • Create a model STIP that can be a “working template” for developing 309 regional haze implementation plans. • Template will allow States & Tribes to “fill in the blanks” as they write their 309 plans. • Identify all the Technical Support Documentation (TSD) that is needed, and how to incorporate it into the 309 plan.

  5. Project Leaders • STIP-2 Coordinator – Brian Finneran, Oregon DEQ. Worked on first SIP/TIP template project. • Tribal Coordinator – Rosanne Sanchez, New Mexico Environment Department. Will ensure tribal TIP needs are met. • STIP-2 Work Group – Representatives from States, Tribes, and EPA. To oversee model STIP as it is being developed.

  6. Deliverables • Model STIP for Section 309 • Will reference and summarize all applicable 309 requirements. • Will list all “TSD” by section. • Will contain generic language that can be incorporated directly into SIPs/TIPs.

  7. Deliverables • Draft 309 SIP for Oregon • Will use Model STIP when completed to prepare draft Oregon 309 SIP, as a model for other States to follow. • Model TIP for Tribes • Will refine Model STIP where appropriate to prepare a Model TIP.
