REGULATORY IMPACT ANALYSIS AND TIERING STATEMENT
Contact Person:
Donovan McGauley, Environmental Scientist II
Subject Headings:
Air Quality Standards; Clean Air Act; Hazardous Air Pollutants
(1) Provide a brief summary of:
(a) What this administrative regulation does:
This administrative regulation adopts National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) codified in 40 C.F.R. Part 63, pursuant to Section 112 of the Clean Air Act (CAA).
(b) The necessity of this administrative regulation:
This regulation is necessary to control the air emissions of Hazardous Air Pollutants (HAP) that are known or suspected to cause cancer or other serious health effects, such as reproductive effects or birth defects, or adverse environmental health. The intent of the standards is to protect public health by requiring major and area sources to control emissions to the level achievable consistent with Section 112 of the CAA.
(c) How this administrative regulation conforms to the content of the authorizing statutes:
KRS 224.10-100(5) requires the Energy and Environment Cabinet to promulgate administrative regulations for the prevention, abatement, and control of air pollution. 42 U.S.C 7416 requires that state authorities may not adopt or enforce emission standards or limitations that are less stringent than the federal standards.

This amendment updates the regulation to include source compliance requirements according to federal regulations published as of July 1, 2025.
(b) The necessity of the amendment to this administrative regulation:
This amendment is necessary in order to incorporate updates of 40 C.F.R. Part 63 standards so state standards are aligned with federal standards. This will allow Kentucky to continue to implement and enforce the federal NESHAP program.
(c) How the amendment conforms to the content of the authorizing statutes:
The amendment conforms to the content of the authorizing statute by adopting NESTAPs that protect human health and welfare. The amendment also conforms to the authorizing statute by being no less stringent than the federal standards in 40 C.F.R. Part 63.
(d) How the amendment will assist in the effective administration of the statutes:
The amendment adopts the federal NESHAP to provide consistency with federal regulations. The new provisions will be enforceable by the Cabinet.
(3) Does this administrative regulation or amendment implement legislation from the previous five years?
No.
(4) List the type and number of individuals, businesses, organizations, or state and local governments affected by this administrative regulation:
This administrative regulation will affect area and major sources that emit a hazardous air pollutant and are subject to 40 C.F.R. Part 63.
(5) Provide an analysis of how the entities identified in question (4) will be impacted by either the implementation of this administrative regulation, if new, or by the change, if it is an amendment, including:
(a) List the actions that each of the regulated entities identified in question (4) will have to take to comply with this administrative regulation or amendment:
Sources that are applicable to a standard under 40 C.F.R. Part 63 may be subject to the regulation and will be required to comply with the applicable subpart. However, there should be no additional requirements as sources are already required to comply at the federal level.
(b) In complying with this administrative regulation or amendment, how much will it cost each of the entities identified in question (4):
Entities affected by the 40 C.F.R Part 63 standards should have no additional costs associated with this amendment as they are required to comply at the federal level.
(c) As a result of compliance, what benefits will accrue to the entities identified in question (4):
The sources will remain in compliance with state and federal regulations and hazardous air pollutants will be controlled.
(6) Provide an estimate of how much it will cost the administrative body to implement this administrative regulation:
(a) Initially:
The cabinet will not incur any additional costs for the implementation of this administrative regulation.
(b) On a continuing basis:
There are no continuing costs for the implementation of this administrative regulation.
(7) What is the source of the funding to be used for the implementation and enforcement of this administrative regulation or this amendment:
The Cabinet’s current operating budget will be used to implement this administrative regulation.
(8) Provide an assessment of whether an increase in fees or funding will be necessary to implement this administrative regulation, if new, or by the change if it is an amendment:
No increase in fees or funding is necessary to implement this administrative regulation.
(9) State whether or not this administrative regulation establishes any fees or directly or indirectly increases any fees:
The administrative regulation does not establish any fees, nor does it directly or indirectly increase any fees.
(10) TIERING: Is tiering applied?
Yes. The administrative regulation defines the HAP thresholds to determine if a regulated source is considered a major or area emitter of HAPs. However, this administrative regulation adopts the same standards as the federal regulations codified in 40 C.F.R Part 63.
FISCAL IMPACT STATEMENT
(1) Identify each state statute, federal statute, or federal regulation that requires or authorizes the action taken by the administrative regulation.
KRS 224.10-100(5), KRS 224.20-120, 42 U.S.C. 7401, 7412, 7414, 7416, 7601, and 40 C.F.R. Part 63.
(2) Identify the promulgating agency and any other affected state units, parts, or divisions:
The Energy and Environment Cabinet, Department for Environmental Protection, Division for Air Quality.
(a) Estimate the following for the first year:
Expenditures:
There is no known effect on current expenditures for the Division for Air Quality.
Revenues:
There is no known effect on current revenues for the Division for Air Quality.
Cost Savings:
There is no known effect on cost savings for the Division for Air Quality.
(b) How will expenditures, revenues, or cost savings differ in subsequent years?
The expenditures, revenues, and cost savings will not change in subsequent years.
(3) Identify affected local entities (for example: cities, counties, fire departments, school districts):
Any state agency has that has a source with an applicable NESHAP requirement in 40 C.F.R. Part 63.
(a) Estimate the following for the first year:
Expenditures:
There is no known effect on current expenditures.
Revenues:
There is no known effect on current revenues.
Cost Savings:
There is no known effect on current cost savings.
(b) How will expenditures, revenues, or cost savings differ in subsequent years?
The expenditures, revenues, and cost savings will not change in subsequent years.
(4) Identify additional regulated entities not listed in questions (2) or (3):
Any entity that has a source with an applicable NESHAP requirement established in 40 C.F.R. Part 63.
(a) Estimate the following for the first year:
Expenditures:
There will be no additional expenditures in the first year
Revenues:
There is no known effect on current revenues.
Cost Savings:
There is no known effect on cost savings.
(b) How will expenditures, revenues, or cost savings differ in subsequent years?
The expenditures, revenues, and cost savings will not change in subsequent years.
(5) Provide a narrative to explain the:
(a) Fiscal impact of this administrative regulation:
There is no impact. This administrative regulation adopts by reference 40 C.F.R Part 63 in order for the Division for Air Quality to maintain the delegation of implementation and enforcement authority from the EPA.
(b) Methodology and resources used to determine the fiscal impact:
The method was done at the federal level. Each time EPA promulgates a new or updated NESHAP, that rulemaking is accompanied by a Regulatory Impact Analysis that includes financial burdens associated with the rulemaking for the regulated entities expected to be impacted. The Division for Air Quality does not do an additional review beyond what is done at the federal level, as the Division is no more stringent than the federal requirements. Information on specific RIAs for a promulgated NESHAP can be found in the associated federal rulemaking and docket documents on federalregister.gov.
(6) Explain:
(a) Whether this administrative regulation will have an overall negative or adverse major economic impact to the entities identified in questions (2) - (4). ($500,000 or more, in aggregate)
This administrative regulation will not have a major economic impact because all affected sources are already required to comply with the federal regulations at the federal level. The amendment to this administrative regulation adopts by reference federal requirements for which any regulated entity has already incurred any associated costs.
(b) The methodology and resources used to reach this conclusion:
This administrative regulation references requirements and standards that are developed by US EPA. US EPA has similar requirements for fiscal impacts and a regulatory impact analysis when promulgating new regulations related to NESHAP. Since analysis for each individual NESHAP occurred at the federal level, and the state is not adding any additional requirements, the Division has concluded that the adoption of the federal standards at the state level does not constitute a major economic impact. Any information on economic impact of individual NESHAP can be found in the EPA's promulgation documents for that standard, which is available publicly.

REGULATORY IMPACT ANALYSIS AND TIERING STATEMENT
Contact Person:
Donovan McGauley, Environmental Scientist II
Subject Headings:
Air Quality Standards; Clean Air Act; Hazardous Air Pollutants
(1) Provide a brief summary of:
(a) What this administrative regulation does:
This administrative regulation adopts National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) codified in 40 C.F.R. Part 63, pursuant to Section 112 of the Clean Air Act (CAA).
(b) The necessity of this administrative regulation:
This regulation is necessary to control the air emissions of Hazardous Air Pollutants (HAP) that are known or suspected to cause cancer or other serious health effects, such as reproductive effects or birth defects, or adverse environmental health. The intent of the standards is to protect public health by requiring major and area sources to control emissions to the level achievable consistent with Section 112 of the CAA.
(c) How this administrative regulation conforms to the content of the authorizing statutes:
KRS 224.10-100(5) requires the Energy and Environment Cabinet to promulgate administrative regulations for the prevention, abatement, and control of air pollution. 42 U.S.C 7416 requires that state authorities may not adopt or enforce emission standards or limitations that are less stringent than the federal standards.
(d) How this administrative regulation currently assists or will assist in the effective administration of the statutes:
This administrative regulation will enable the Cabinet to continue to implement and enforce the standards that are applicable under 40 C.F.R. Part 63 pursuant to Section 112 of the CAA.
(2) If this is an amendment to an existing administrative regulation, provide a brief summary of:
(a) How the amendment will change this existing administrative regulation:
This amendment updates the regulation to include source compliance requirements according to federal regulations published as of July 1, 2025.
(b) The necessity of the amendment to this administrative regulation:
This amendment is necessary in order to incorporate updates of 40 C.F.R. Part 63 standards so state standards are aligned with federal standards. This will allow Kentucky to continue to implement and enforce the federal NESHAP program.
(c) How the amendment conforms to the content of the authorizing statutes:
The amendment conforms to the content of the authorizing statute by adopting NESTAPs that protect human health and welfare. The amendment also conforms to the authorizing statute by being no less stringent than the federal standards in 40 C.F.R. Part 63.
(d) How the amendment will assist in the effective administration of the statutes:
The amendment adopts the federal NESHAP to provide consistency with federal regulations. The new provisions will be enforceable by the Cabinet.
(3) Does this administrative regulation or amendment implement legislation from the previous five years?
No.
(4) List the type and number of individuals, businesses, organizations, or state and local governments affected by this administrative regulation:
This administrative regulation will affect area and major sources that emit a hazardous air pollutant and are subject to 40 C.F.R. Part 63.
(5) Provide an analysis of how the entities identified in question (4) will be impacted by either the implementation of this administrative regulation, if new, or by the change, if it is an amendment, including:
(a) List the actions that each of the regulated entities identified in question (4) will have to take to comply with this administrative regulation or amendment:
Sources that are applicable to a standard under 40 C.F.R. Part 63 may be subject to the regulation and will be required to comply with the applicable subpart. However, there should be no additional requirements as sources are already required to comply at the federal level.
(b) In complying with this administrative regulation or amendment, how much will it cost each of the entities identified in question (4):
Entities affected by the 40 C.F.R Part 63 standards should have no additional costs associated with this amendment as they are required to comply at the federal level.
(c) As a result of compliance, what benefits will accrue to the entities identified in question (4):
The sources will remain in compliance with state and federal regulations and hazardous air pollutants will be controlled.
(6) Provide an estimate of how much it will cost the administrative body to implement this administrative regulation:
(a) Initially:
The cabinet will not incur any additional costs for the implementation of this administrative regulation.
(b) On a continuing basis:
There are no continuing costs for the implementation of this administrative regulation.
(7) What is the source of the funding to be used for the implementation and enforcement of this administrative regulation or this amendment:
The Cabinet’s current operating budget will be used to implement this administrative regulation.
(8) Provide an assessment of whether an increase in fees or funding will be necessary to implement this administrative regulation, if new, or by the change if it is an amendment:
No increase in fees or funding is necessary to implement this administrative regulation.
(9) State whether or not this administrative regulation establishes any fees or directly or indirectly increases any fees:
The administrative regulation does not establish any fees, nor does it directly or indirectly increase any fees.
(10) TIERING: Is tiering applied?
Yes. The administrative regulation defines the HAP thresholds to determine if a regulated source is considered a major or area emitter of HAPs. However, this administrative regulation adopts the same standards as the federal regulations codified in 40 C.F.R Part 63.

Revenues:
There is no known effect on current revenues.
Cost Savings:
There is no known effect on cost savings.
(b) How will expenditures, revenues, or cost savings differ in subsequent years?
The expenditures, revenues, and cost savings will not change in subsequent years.
(5) Provide a narrative to explain the:
(a) Fiscal impact of this administrative regulation:
There is no impact. This administrative regulation adopts by reference 40 C.F.R Part 63 in order for the Division for Air Quality to maintain the delegation of implementation and enforcement authority from the EPA.
(b) Methodology and resources used to determine the fiscal impact:
The method was done at the federal level. Each time EPA promulgates a new or updated NESHAP, that rulemaking is accompanied by a Regulatory Impact Analysis that includes financial burdens associated with the rulemaking for the regulated entities expected to be impacted. The Division for Air Quality does not do an additional review beyond what is done at the federal level, as the Division is no more stringent than the federal requirements. Information on specific RIAs for a promulgated NESHAP can be found in the associated federal rulemaking and docket documents on federalregister.gov.
(6) Explain:
(a) Whether this administrative regulation will have an overall negative or adverse major economic impact to the entities identified in questions (2) - (4). ($500,000 or more, in aggregate)
This administrative regulation will not have a major economic impact because all affected sources are already required to comply with the federal regulations at the federal level. The amendment to this administrative regulation adopts by reference federal requirements for which any regulated entity has already incurred any associated costs.
(b) The methodology and resources used to reach this conclusion:
This administrative regulation references requirements and standards that are developed by US EPA. US EPA has similar requirements for fiscal impacts and a regulatory impact analysis when promulgating new regulations related to NESHAP. Since analysis for each individual NESHAP occurred at the federal level, and the state is not adding any additional requirements, the Division has concluded that the adoption of the federal standards at the state level does not constitute a major economic impact. Any information on economic impact of individual NESHAP can be found in the EPA's promulgation documents for that standard, which is available publicly.
