# §52.2533. Visibility protection.

- (a) **Reasonably Attributable Visibility Impairment.** The requirements of section 169A of the Clean Air Act are not met because the plan does not include approvable measures for meeting the requirements of 40 CFR [51.305](/cfr/40/51.305.md) and [51.307](/cfr/40/51.307.md) for protection of visibility in mandatory Class I Federal areas.
- (b) **Regulation for visibility monitoring and new source review.** The provisions of [§ 52.28](/cfr/40/52.28.md) are hereby incorporated and made a part of the applicable plan for the State of West Virginia.
- (c) -(f) [Reserved]
- (g) EPA converts its limited approval/limited disapproval of West Virginia's regional haze program to a full approval. This SIP revision changes West Virginia's reliance from the Clean Air Interstate Rule to the Cross-State Air Pollution Rule to meet the regional haze SIP best available retrofit technology requirements for certain sources and to meet reasonable progress requirements.
