E. Maintenance for Growth o The plan must include a component to address emissions growth at least 5 years beyond December 31, 2007, ensuring that the area will remain in attainment of the 8- hour standard during that period. This future attainment maintenance analysis may employ one or more of the following or any other appropriate techniques necessary to make such a demonstration: Modeling analysis showing ozone levels below the 8-hour standard in 2012; An annual review of growth (especially mobile and stationary source) to ensure control measures and growth assumptions are adequate; Identification and quantification offederal, state, and/or local measures indicating sufficient reductions to offset growth estimates. o The plan must also detail a continuing planning process that includes modeling updates and modeling assumption verification (particularly growth assumptions). Modeling updates and planning processes must consider and evaluate: all relevant actual new point sources; impacts from potential new source growth; and future transportation pattems and their impact on air quality in a manner that is consistent with the most current adopted Long Term Transportation Plan and most current trend and projections of local motor vehicle emissions. o If the review of growth demonstrates that adopted control measures are inadequate to address growth in emissions, additional measures will be added to the plan. Local planning processes should prepare for this possibility. F. Public Involvement o Public involvement will be conducted in all stages of the planning and implementation process. o Public education programs will be used to raise awareness regarding issues, opportunities for involvement in the planning process, implementation of control strategies, and any other issues important to the area. o Interested stakeholders will be involved in the planning process as early as possible. Planning meetings will be open to the public, with posted meeting times and locations. Plan drafts will be publicly available, and the drafting process will have sufficient opportunities for comment from all interested stakeholders. o Public comment on the proposed final plan will follow the normal SIP revision process as implemented by the State. o Semi-annual reports detailing, at a minimum, progress toward milestones, will be publicly presented and publicly available. Local, State and the EP A Commitments Local Areas Local areas hold primary responsibility for the development and implementation of the plan, as well as for maintaining cOl11lmmication with all parties, includirlg:
