Background:  

Section 176(c) of the Clean Air Act (Act) establishes
transportation conformity requirements which are intended to
ensure that transportation activities do not interfere with air
quality progress.  The Act requires that transportation plans,
programs, and projects that obtain federal funds or approvals
conform to applicable State Implementation Plans (SIP) before
being approved by a Metropolitan Planning Organization.   

On April 16, 2015 the Governing Board of the San Joaquin Valley
Air Pollution Control District (District) approved the 2015 Plan
for the 1997 PM2.5 Standard (2015 Plan), which demonstrates
attainment of the 15 ug/m3 annual PM2.5 standard in 2020 and the
65 ug/m3 24-hour PM2.5 standard in 2018.  The 2015 Plan contains
transportation conformity budgets for the annual PM2.5 standard
in 2017 and 2020.  On May 21, 2015 the Board held a public
meeting and approved the 2015 Plan, which was submitted to United
States Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) for approval. 
At the request of U.S. EPA, ARB staff is proposing additional
transportation conformity motor vehicle emissions budgets for
2018.  

Thank you.
