recommends the following:

Amend printed resolution, page 1, strike line 2 and substitute the following:
"has promulgated the "Regional Haze Rule"
which has";
line 10, after "over" insert "9 million
dollars and";
strike lines 14 through 19 and substitute the following:
"WHEREAS, The federal "Regional Haze Rule"
ignores the primary recommendations of the Grand Canyon Visibility
Transport Commission to seek to improve haze by regulating all
sources of haze, including visibility impairing emissions arising
from federal lands; and
WHEREAS, The Grand Canyon Visibility Transport Commission found that unless emissions from all sources of haze are reduced, a recognizable improvement in visibility cannot be achieved; and
WHEREAS, Colorado is a receptor of haze attributable
to upwind sources such as emissions from fires on federal lands,
the Republic of Mexico, and sources located in other states; and
WHEREAS, Colorado has participated since 1996 with
other western states in the Western Regional Air Partnership (WRAP),
formed as the successor body to implement the Grand Canyon Visibility
Transport Commission's comprehensive regional approach to control
all sources of regional haze; and
WHEREAS, As the alternative regional provisions mandated
in the "Regional Haze Rule" prevent Colorado from receiving
credit in its state implementation plan (SIP) for controlling
sources of haze other than stationary sources which the Grand
Canyon Visibility Transport Commission report found are not a
primary cause of western haze; and
WHEREAS, Prior to the promulgation of the "Regional
Haze Rule", in violation of procedural fair play, the EPA
made major substantive changes to the draft rule without making
those changes available for public comment; and
WHEREAS, The United States Congress, in the 199899
EPA appropriations measure, specifically recommended to the EPA
that the entire "Regional Haze Rule" be redrafted and
made available for full public participation and comment on the
substantive draft changes; and
WHEREAS, Amendments by other agencies and by other
persons identified as representing "western state interests"
to the draft rule were offered by the EPA without the opportunity
for the general public to comment and without allowing for states
that participated in the WRAP to receive credit in their SIPs
for regulating sources of haze other than stationary sources;
now, therefore,";
strike lines 23 through 29 and substitute the following:
"That the United States Congress is urged to
subject the "Regional Haze Rule" to congressional rule
review, to reject the rule, and return it to the EPA for proper
participation by all interested parties prior to promulgation
in accordance with the requirements of the federal "Administrative
Procedures Act.".".
