**(a) Findings** The Congress finds—
(1) that the predominant part of the Nation’s population is located in its rapidly expanding metropolitan and other urban areas, which generally cross the boundary lines of local jurisdictions and often extend into two or more States;
(2) that the growth in the amount and complexity of air pollution brought about by urbanization, industrial development, and the increasing use of motor vehicles, has resulted in mounting dangers to the public health and welfare, including injury to agricultural crops and livestock, damage to and the deterioration of property, and hazards to air and ground transportation;
(3) that air pollution prevention (that is, the reduction or elimination, through any measures, of the amount of pollutants produced or created at the source) and air pollution control at its source is the primary responsibility of States and local governments; and
(4) that Federal financial assistance and leadership is essential for the development of cooperative Federal, State, regional, and local programs to prevent and control air pollution.
**(b) Declaration** The purposes of this subchapter are—
(1) to protect and enhance the quality of the Nation’s air resources so as to promote the public health and welfare and the productive capacity of its population;
(2) to initiate and accelerate a national research and development program to achieve the prevention and control of air pollution;
(3) to provide technical and financial assistance to State and local governments in connection with the development and execution of their air pollution prevention and control programs; and
(4) to encourage and assist the development and operation of regional air pollution prevention and control programs.

In addition, such State shall adopt and submit to the Administrator (either as a part of a plan submitted under the preceding sentence or separately) within 3 years (or such shorter period as the Administrator may prescribe) after the promulgation of a national ambient air quality secondary standard (or revision thereof), a plan which provides for implementation, maintenance, and enforcement of such secondary standard in each air quality control region (or portion thereof) within such State. Unless a separate public hearing is provided, each State shall consider its plan implementing such secondary standard at the hearing required by the first sentence of this paragraph.

1 So in original. Section enacted without a subsec. (b).
(c) Violations; allowable continued operation
Notwithstanding any permit which may have
been granted by the State in which the source is
located (or intends to locate), it shall be a viola-
tion of this section and the applicable imple-
mentation plan in such State—
(1) for any major proposed new (or modified)
source with respect to which a finding has
been made under subsection (b) to be con-
structed or to operate in violation of the pro-
hibition of section 7410(a)(2)(D)(ii) of this title
or this section, or
(2) for any major existing source to operate
more than three months after such finding has
been made with respect to it.
The Administrator may permit the continued
operation of a source referred to in paragraph (2)
beyond the expiration of such three-month pe-
riod if such source complies with such emission
limitations and compliance schedules (con-
taining increments of progress) as may be pro-
vided by the Administrator to bring about com-
pliance with the requirements contained in sec-
tion 7410(a)(2)(D)(ii) of this title or this section
as expeditiously as practicable, but in no case
later than three years after the date of such
finding. Nothing in the preceding sentence shall
be construed to preclude any such source from
being eligible for an enforcement order under
section 7413(d) 1 of this title after the expiration
of such period during which the Administrator
has permitted continuous operation.
