A. The transportation plan, TIP and project not from a conforming transportation plan and TIP shall be consistent with the motor vehicle emissions budget(s) in the applicable implementation plan (or implementation plan submission). This criterion applies as described in Subsections C through G of 20.11.3.109 NMAC. This criterion is satisfied if it is demonstrated that emissions of the pollutants or pollutant precursors described in Subsection C of 20.11.3.118 NMAC are less than or equal to the motor vehicle emissions budget(s) established in the applicable implementation plan or implementation plan submission.
B. Consistency with the motor vehicle emissions budget(s) shall be demonstrated for each year for which the applicable (or submitted) implementation plan specifically establishes a motor vehicle emissions budget(s), and for each year for which a regional emissions analysis is performed to fulfill the requirements in Subsection D of 20.11.3.118 NMAC, as follows:
(1) Until a
maintenance plan is submitted: (a) emissions
in each year (such as milestone years and the attainment year) for which the
control strategy implementation plan revision establishes motor vehicle
emissions budget(s) shall be less than or equal to that years motor vehicle
emissions budget(s); and
(b)
emissions in years for which no motor vehicle emissions budget(s) are
specifically established shall be less than or equal to the motor vehicle
emissions budget(s) established for the most recent prior year; for example
emissions in years after the attainment year for which the implementation plan
does not establish a budget shall be less than or equal to the motor vehicle
emissions budget(s) for the attainment year.
(2) When a maintenance plan has been
submitted:(a) emissions shall be less than or
equal to the motor vehicle emissions budget(s) established for the last year of
the maintenance plan, and for any other years for which the maintenance plan
establishes motor vehicle emissions budgets; if the maintenance plan does not
establish motor vehicle emissions budgets for any years other than the last
year of the maintenance plan, the demonstration of consistency with the motor
vehicle emission budget(s) shall be accompanied by a qualitative finding that
there are no factors which would cause or contribute to a new violation or
exacerbate an existing violation in the years before the last year of the
maintenance plan; the interagency consultation process required by 20.11.3.105
NMAC shall determine what shall be considered in order to make such a
finding;
(b) for years after the
last year of the maintenance plan, emissions shall be less than or equal to the
maintenance plan's motor vehicle emissions budget(s) for the last year of the
maintenance plan;
(c) if an
approved or submitted control strategy implementation plan has established
motor vehicle emissions budgets for years in the time frame of the
transportation plan, emissions in these years shall be less than or equal to
the control strategy implementation plan's motor vehicle emissions budget(s)
for these years; and
(d) for any
analysis years before the last year of the maintenance plan, emissions shall be
less than or equal to the motor vehicle emissions budget(s) established for the
most recent prior year.
C. Consistency with the motor vehicle...
