ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 52
[TX-92-1-7368; FRL-6342-9]
Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans;
Texas; Revised Format for Materials Being Incorporated by Reference
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Final rule; notice of administrative change.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The EPA is revising the format of 40 Code of Federal
Regulations (CFR) part 52 for materials submitted by Texas that are
incorporated by reference (IBR) into the State Implementation Plans
(SIPs). The regulations affected by this format change have all been
previously submitted by the respective State agency and approved by
EPA. This format revision will primarily affect the ``Identification of
plan'' of 40 CFR 52.2270, as well as the format of the SIP materials
that will be available for public inspection at the EPA Region 6
office, the Air and Radiation Docket and Information Center located in
Waterside Mall, Washington, DC., and the Office of the Federal
Register. The sections of 40 CFR 52.2270 pertaining to provisions
promulgated by EPA or State-submitted materials not subject to IBR
review and 40 CFR 52.2271 through 52.2309 remain unchanged. The EPA has
determined that good cause exists for issuing this rule without public
comment.
EFFECTIVE DATE: This action is effective July 7, 1999.
ADDRESSES: The SIP materials which are incorporated by reference into
40 CFR part 52 are available for inspection at the following locations:
Environmental Protection Agency, Region 6, 1445 Ross Avenue, Suite 700,
Dallas, Texas 75202-2733;
Office of Air and Radiation, Docket and Information Center (Air
Docket), EPA, 401 M Street, SW, Room M1500, Washington, DC 20460; and
Office of the Federal Register, 800 North Capitol Street, NW, Suite
700, Washington, DC.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr. Paul Scoggins, Air Planning
Section (6PD-L) at the above Region 6 address or at (214) 665-7354.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
Each State is required by section 110(a)(1) of the Clean Air Act
(Act), to have a SIP that contains the control
[[Page 36587]]
measures and strategies which will be used to attain and maintain the
national ambient air quality standards. The SIP is extensive,
containing such elements as emission inventories, monitoring network,
attainment demonstrations, and enforcement mechanisms. The control
measures and strategies must be formally adopted by each State after
the public has had an opportunity to comment on them. They are then
submitted to EPA as SIP revisions on which EPA must formally act.
Once these control measures are approved by EPA pursuant to 110(k)
of the Act, after notice and comment, they are incorporated into the
SIP and are identified in part 52 (Approval and Promulgation of
Implementation Plans) of 40 CFR. The actual State regulations which are
approved by EPA are not reproduced in their entirety in 40 CFR part 52,
but are ``incorporated by reference,'' which means that the citation of
a given State regulation with a specific effective date has been
approved by EPA. This format allows both EPA and the public to know
which measures are contained in a given SIP and ensures that the State
is enforcing the regulations. It also allows EPA to take enforcement
action, or the public to bring citizen suits, should a State not
enforce its SIP-approved regulations.
The SIP is an active or changing document which can be revised by
the State as necessary to address the unique air pollution problems in
the State as long as changes are not contrary to Federal law.
Therefore, EPA, from time to time, must take action to incorporate into
the SIP, revisions of the State program which may contain new and/or
revised regulations. Regulations approved into the SIP are then
incorporated by reference into part 52. Pursuant to 110(h)(1) of the
Act and as a result of consultations between EPA and the Office of
Federal Register, EPA revised the procedures May 22, 1997 (62 FR
27968), for incorporating by reference federally-approved SIPs and
began the process of developing: (1) a revised SIP document for each
State that would be incorporated by reference under the provisions of 1
CFR part 51, (2) a revised mechanism for announcing EPA approval of
revisions to an applicable SIP and updating both the IBR document and
the CFR, and (3) a revised format of the ``Identification of plan''
sections for each applicable subpart to reflect these revised IBR
procedures. The description of the revised SIP document, IBR procedures
and ``Identification of plan'' format are discussed in further detail
in the May 22, 1997, Federal Register document.
Content of Revised IBR Document
The new SIP compilations contain the federally-approved portion of
State regulations and source specific permits submitted by each State
agency. These regulations and source-specific permits have all been
approved by EPA through previous rulemaking actions in the Federal
Register. The SIP compilations are stored in 3-ring binders and will be
updated primarily on an annual basis.
If no significant changes are made for any State to the SIP during
the year, an update will not be made during that year. If significant
changes occur during the year, an update could be done on a more
frequent basis, as applicable. Typically, only the revised sections of
the compilation will be updated. Complete resubmittals of a State SIP
compilation will be done on an as-needed basis.
Each compilation contains two parts. Part 1 contains the
regulations and Part 2 contains the source-specific permits that have
been approved as part of the SIP. Each part has a table of contents
identifying each regulation or each source specific permit. The table
of contents in the compilation corresponds to the table of contents
published in 40 CFR part 52 for these States. The regional EPA offices
have the primary responsibility for ensuring accuracy and updating the
compilations. The Region 6 EPA Office developed and will maintain the
compilations for Texas. A copy of the full text of the State's current
compilation will also be maintained at the Office of Federal Register
and EPA's Air Docket and Information Center. The EPA is beginning the
phasing in of SIP compilations for individual States, and expects to
complete the conversion of the revised ``Identification of plan''
format and IBR documentation for all states by May 1999. This revised
format is consistent with the SIP compilation requirements of section
110(h)(1) of the Act.
Revised Format of the ``Identification of Plan'' Sections in Each
Subpart
In order to better serve the public, EPA is revising the
organization of the ``Identification of plan'' section of 40 CFR
52.2270. The EPA is including additional information which will more
clearly identify the provisions that constitute the enforceable
elements of the SIP.
The revised ``Identification of plan'' section will contain five
subsections: (a) Purpose and scope; (b) Incorporation by reference; (c)
EPA approved regulations; (d) EPA approved source-specific permits; and
(e) EPA approved nonregulatory provisions, such as transportation
control measures, statutory provisions, control strategies, monitoring
networks, etc.
Enforceability and Legal Effect
This change to the procedures for incorporation by reference
announced today will not alter in any way the enforceability or legal
effect of approved SIP materials, including both those approved in the
past or to be approved in the future. As of the effective date of the
final rule approving a SIP revision, all provisions identified in the
Federal Register document announcing the SIP approval will be federally
enforceable, both by EPA under section 113 of the Act and by citizens
under section 304 of the Act, where applicable. All revisions to the
applicable SIP are federally enforceable as of the effective date of
EPA approval even if they have not yet been incorporated by reference.
To facilitate enforcement of previously approved SIP provisions and
provide a smooth transition to the new SIP processing system, EPA is
retaining the original ``Identification of Plan'' section, previously
appearing in the CFR as the first or second section of part 52 for each
State subpart.
Notice of Administrative Change
Today's action constitutes a ``housekeeping'' exercise to ensure
that federally approved State plans are accurately reflected in 40 CFR
part 52. State SIP revisions are controlled by EPA Regulations at 40
CFR part 51. When EPA receives a formal SIP revision request, the
Agency must publish the proposed revision in the Federal Register and
provide for public comment before approval.
The EPA has determined that today's rule falls under the ``Good
Cause'' exemption in section 553(b)(3)(B) of the Administrative
Procedures Act (APA) which, upon finding good cause, authorizes
agencies to dispense with public participation and section 553(d)(3)
which allows an agency to make a rule effective immediately (thereby
avoiding the 30-day delayed effective date otherwise provided for in
the APA). Today's rule simply codifies provisions which are already in
effect as a matter of law in Federal and approved State programs.
Under section 553 of the APA, an agency may find good cause where
procedures are ``impractical, unnecessary, or contrary to the public
interest.'' Public comment is unnecessary since the codification only
reflects existing law. Immediate revision to the CFR benefits the
public by removing outdated citations.
[[Page 36588]]
Administrative Requirements
A. Executive Order (E.O.) 12866
The Office of Management and Budget has exempted this regulatory
action from E.O. 12866, entitled ``Regulatory Planning and Review.''
B. Executive Order 12875
Under E.O. 12875, EPA may not issue a regulation that is not
required by statute and that creates a mandate upon a state, local, or
tribal government, unless the Federal government provides the funds
necessary to pay the direct compliance costs incurred by those
governments. If EPA complies by consulting, E.O. 12875 requires EPA to
provide to the OMB a description of the extent of EPA's prior
consultation with representatives of affected state, local, and tribal
governments, the nature of their concerns, copies of written
communications from the governments, and a statement supporting the
need to issue the regulation. In addition, E.O. 12875 requires EPA to
develop an effective process permitting elected officials and other
representatives of state, local, and tribal governments ``to provide
meaningful and timely input in the development of regulatory proposals
containing significant unfunded mandates.''
Today's rule does not create a mandate on state, local, or tribal
governments. The rule does not impose any enforceable duties on these
entities. Accordingly, the requirements of section 1(a) of E.O. 12875
do not apply to this rule.
C. Executive Order 13045
E.O. 13045, entitled ``Protection of Children from Environmental
Health Risks and Safety Risks'' (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997), applies
to any rule that EPA determines: (1) is determined to be ``economically
significant'' as defined under E.O. 12866, and (2) concerns an
environmental health or safety risks that EPA has reason to believe may
have a disproportionate effect on children. If the regulatory action
meets both criteria, the Agency must evaluate the environmental health
or safety effects of the planned rule on children, and explain why the
planned regulation is preferable to other potentially effective and
reasonably feasible alternatives considered by the Agency.
This rule is not subject to E.O. 13045 because it is not an
economically significant regulatory action as defined by E.O. 12866,
and it does not address an environmental health or safety risk that
would have a disproportionate effect on children.
D. Executive Order 13084
Under E.O. 13084, EPA may not issue a regulation that is not
required by statute, that significantly or uniquely affects the
communities of Indian tribal governments, and that imposes substantial
direct compliance costs on those communities, unless the Federal
government provides the funds necessary to pay the direct compliance
costs incurred by the tribal governments. If EPA complies by
consulting, E.O. 13084 requires EPA to provide to the OMB, in
separately identified section of the preamble to the rule, a
description of the extent of EPA's prior consultation with
representatives of affected tribal governments, a summary of the nature
of their concerns, and a statement supporting the need to issue the
regulation. In addition, E.O. 13084 requires EPA to develop an
effective process permitting elected officials and other
representatives of Indian tribal governments ``to provide meaningful
and timely input in the development of regulatory policies on matters
that significantly or uniquely affect their communities.''
Today's rule does not significantly or uniquely affect the
communities of Indian tribal governments. This action does not involve
or impose any requirements that affect Indian tribes. The rule does not
impose any enforceable duties on these entities. Accordingly, the
requirements of section 3(b) of E.O. 13084 do not apply to this rule.
E. Regulatory Flexibility Act
The Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 600 et seq., generally
requires an agency to conduct a regulatory flexibility analysis of any
rule subject to notice and comment rulemaking requirements unless the
agency certifies that the rule will not have a significant economic
impact on a substantial number of small entities. Small entities
include small businesses, small not-for-profit enterprises, and small
government jurisdictions. This final rule will not have a significant
impact on a substantial number of small entities because the SIP
approvals under section 110 and subchapter I, part D of the Clean Air
Act do not create any new requirements but simply approve requirements
that the State is already imposing. Therefore, because the Federal SIP
approval does not create any new requirements, I certify that this
action will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial
number of small entities. Moreover, due the nature of the Federal-State
relationship under the Act, preparations of a flexibility analysis
would constitute Federal inquiry into the economic reasonableness of
state actions. The Clean Air Act forbids EPA to base its actions
concerning SIPs on such grounds. Union Electric Co. v. U.S. EPA, 427
U.S. 246, 255-66 (1976); 42 U.S.C. 7410(a)(2).
F. Unfunded Mandates
Under section 202 of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995,
signed into law on March 22, 1995, EPA must prepare a budgetary impact
statement to accompany any proposed or final rule that includes a
Federal mandate that may result in estimated costs to State, local, or
tribal governments in the aggregate; or to private sector, of $100
million or more. Under section 205, EPA must select the most cost-
effective and least burdensome alternative that achieves the objectives
of the rule and is consistent with statutory requirements. Section 203
requires EPA to establish a plan for informing and advising any small
governments that may be significantly or uniquely impacted by the rule.
The EPA has determined that the approval action promulgated does
not include a Federal mandate that may result in estimated costs of
$100 million or more to either State, local, or tribal governments in
the aggregate, or to the private sector. This Federal action approves
preexisting requirements under State or local law, and imposes no new
requirements. Accordingly, no additional costs to State, local, or
tribal governments, or to the private sector, result from this action.
G. Submission to Congress and the Comptroller General
The Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801 et seq., as added by the
Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996, generally
provides that before a rule may take effect, the agency promulgating
the rule must submit a rule report, which includes a copy of the rule,
to each House of Congress and to the Comptroller General of the United
States. The EPA will submit a report containing this rule and other
required information to the U.S. Senate, the U.S. House of
Representatives, and the Comptroller General of the United States prior
to publication of the rule in the Federal Register. This rule is not a
``major rule'' as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2).
H. Petitions for Judicial Review
The EPA has also determined that the provisions of section
307(b)(1) of the Clean Air Act pertaining to petitions for judicial
review are not applicable to this
[[Page 36589]]
action. Prior EPA rulemaking actions approving each individual
component of Texas SIP compilations had previously afforded interested
parties the opportunity to file a petition for judicial review in the
United States Court of Appeals for the appropriate circuit within 60
days of such rulemaking action. Thus, EPA sees no need in this action
to reopen the 60-day period for filing such petitions for judicial
review for this ``Identification of plan'' reorganization action for
Texas.
