Federal Register Summaries

This page contains synopses of Federal Register articles on air quality and environmental management system management matters which we feel may be of interest to our clients.  The synopses will be left on the web page for approximately three to four months, with new articles appearing on a monthly basis. 

Note: these are only brief synopses, not an exhaustive analysis.  In addition, not all proposed, new or amended rules or notices published in the Federal Register are summarized here.    The reader is encouraged to obtain a copy of the Federal Register article presented by going to the GPO website:  http://www.gpoaccess.gov/fr/index.htm
