North Carolina's Clean Air Interstate Rule (CAIR) The Clean Air Interstate Rule (CAIR) seeks to reduce air pollution between 28 eastern states by placing an annual cap on Nitrogen Oxide (NOx) and Sulfur Dioxide (SO2) emissions. Ozone season (May 1 to September 30) NOx emissions, previously tracked through the NOx Budget Program, will also be incorporated into CAIR. SO2 emissions will be allocated by EPA and NOx emissions will be allocated by the state. EPA will administer this cap and trade system on their Clean Air Markets website . NC CAIR Emission Allocations per 15A NCAC 2D .2400 NCAC 2D .2403 Nitrogen Oxide Emissions NCAC 2D .2404 Sulfur Dioxide Emissions (allocated by EPA at 40 CFR 70.10 ) NCAC 2D .2405 Nitrogen Oxide Emissions During Ozone Season Allocations New Unit Set-Aside NCEMC Anson Facility - 2009 Final Allocation NCEMC Hamlet Facility - 2009 Final Allocation NCEMC Rowan Facility - 2009 Final Allocation Final Allocations CAIR 2009 Final Allocation = Initial Allocation + Reallocation of Remaining New Unit Set-Aside (.xls)
