The Environmental Protection Agency is proposing to approve a state air quality plan submitted by Kentucky. This plan covers Boone, Campbell, and Kenton counties, which make up the Kentucky portion of the Cincinnati-Hamilton area.
Why it matters: This is a routine administrative step in air quality management. It formalizes Kentucky’s existing commitments to keep ozone levels down in Northern Kentucky. It does not create new pollution limits or impose new regulations on businesses; it simply makes the state’s current maintenance strategy official under federal law.
Who it affects
- Residents and businesses in Boone, Campbell, and Kenton counties, Kentucky
