to use used oil as a fuel even if, notwithstanding
subsection (f)(2), such use would violate State and federal
air quality standards. (Other persons presumably would be
allowed to use used oil as a fuel only if, as required by
subsection (f)(2), that use complied with air quality
standards.)
To the extent that the provisions of this bill purport
to exempt various air pollution sources from federal
requirements, those provisions could not be given effect
because of the Supremacy Clause of the United States
Constitution. Moreover, even though the General Assembly
has the power to exempt pollution sources from State
regulation, those State air quality regulations that have
been made a part of the State's air quality implementation
plan will continue to be enforceable at the federal level
until the processes of revising that plan can be completed.
