Amendments made to a rule after adoption by a State Agency are not delegated.  The delegations are subject to all of the conditions and limitations set forth in Federal law, regulations, policy, guidance, and determinations.  State authority delegation does not apply to sources located in Indian Country.  For those authorities that cannot be delegated, see certain general provisions listed in item 1 and also specific parts of some standards as stated in each specific standard. See also Subpart E, Approval of State Programs and Delegation of Federal Authorities - specifically, 40 CFR § 63.90(d) provides for authorities retained by EPA's Administrator.
