Sec. 51.112  Demonstration of adequacy.

    (a) Each plan must demonstrate that the measures, rules, and 
regulations contained in it are adequate to provide for the timely 
attainment and maintenance of the national standard that it implements.
    (1) The adequacy of a control strategy shall be demonstrated by 
means of applicable air quality models, data bases, and other 
requirements specified in appendix W of this part (Guideline on Air 
Quality Models).
    (2) Where an air quality model specified in appendix W of this part 
(Guideline on Air Quality Models) is inappropriate, the model may be 
modified or another model substituted. Such a modification or 
substitution of a model

may be made on a case-by-case basis or, where appropriate, on a generic 
basis for a specific State program. Written approval of the 
Administrator must be obtained for any modification or substitution. In 
addition, use of a modified or substituted model must be subject to 
notice and opportunity for public comment under procedures set forth in 
Sec. 51.102.
    (b) The demonstration must include the following:
    (1) A summary of the computations, assumptions, and judgments used 
to determine the degree of reduction of emissions (or reductions in the 
growth of emissions) that will result from the implementation of the 
control strategy.
    (2) A presentation of emission levels expected to result from 
implementation of each measure of the control strategy.
    (3) A presentation of the air quality levels expected to result from 
implementation of the overall control strategy presented either in 
tabular form or as an isopleth map showing expected maximum pollutant 
concentrations.
    (4) A description of the dispersion models used to project air 
quality and to evaluate control strategies.
    (5) For interstate regions, the analysis from each constituent State 
must, where practicable, be based upon the same regional emission 
inventory and air quality baseline.
