Designation of Areas for Air Quality Planning Purposes; Indiana
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Direct final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: In this action, EPA is approving two redesignation requests
submitted by the State of Indiana. On March 14, 1996, Indiana requested
that a portion of Marion County be redesignated to attainment of the
National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) for sulfur dioxide
(SO2). On June 17, 1996, Indiana requested that portions of
LaPorte and Wayne Counties and all of Vigo County be redesignated to
attainment for SO2. The EPA is also approving the maintenance
plans for Marion, LaPorte, Vigo, and Wayne Counties, which were
submitted with the redesignation requests to ensure maintenance of the
NAAQS. Subsequent to this approval, Marion, LaPorte, Vigo, and Wayne
Counties are each designated attainment in their entirety.
DATES: The ``direct final'' is effective on January 14, 1997. If the
effective date is delayed, timely notice will be published in the
Federal Register.
ADDRESSES: Copies of the revision request are available for inspection
at the following address: Environmental Protection Agency, Region 5,
Air and Radiation Division, 77 West Jackson Boulevard, Chicago,
Illinois 60604. (It is recommended that you telephone Ryan Bahr at

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
The NAAQS for SO2 consist of two standards: a primary standard
for the protection of public health and a secondary standard for the
protection of public welfare. The primary SO2 standard consists of
a 24-hour maximum and an annual arithmetic mean ambient SO2
concentration. The secondary standard consists of a 3-hour maximum
ambient SO2 concentration. (See 40 CFR 50.2-50.5)
On March 3, 1978 (43 FR 40412), Marion County was designated
nonattainment for SO2 based on monitored violations of the 24-hour
standard and modeled violations of both the annual and 24-hour
standards (43 FR 8962). Also on March 3, 1978, a portion of LaPorte
County bordered by Lake Michigan, the State of Michigan, Porter County
and Interstate 94 was designated as nonattainment for both the primary
and the secondary SO2 standards, due to measured and modeled
violations of the SO2 NAAQS. On the same date, Vigo County was
designated as nonattainment of the primary SO2 standard because of
monitored violations, and Wayne County was designated nonattainment
because dispersion modeling predicted primary standard violations.
In an October 5, 1978 (43 FR 45993) action, the Marion County
nonattainment designation was revised to attainment of the secondary
SO2 standard, since no 3-hour SO2 violations had been
monitored or predicted. Also on that date, LaPorte County's designation
was revised to nonattainment of the primary standard only. In addition,
the Wayne County nonattainment area was revised to include only Boston,
Center, Franklin, Wayne and Webster Townships, which encompassed the
contributing sources (43 FR 46007).
On September 18, 1990, Lawrence, Washington, and Warren Townships
in Marion County were redesignated from nonattainment to ``Cannot be
classified''
[[Page 58483]]
based on clean ambient data and full source compliance with emission
limitations (55 FR 38327). The rest of Marion County remained
nonattainment for SO2. (Note: At the time of this redesignation,
EPA commonly redesignated areas to ``Cannot be classified,'' rather
than ``attainment,'' due to concerns about the adequacy of monitoring
networks. However, as of November 15, 1990, Section 107 (d)(3)(F) of
the Clean Air Act Amendments prohibited redesignations to
unclassifiable status.)
In order to satisfy the requirements of Part D and Section 110 of
the Clean Air Act (Act) for the four nonattainment areas, Indiana
submitted a SO2 State Implementation Plan (SIP) request to USEPA.
The USEPA approved Indiana's SO2 SIP submission for these areas on
September 1, 1988 (53 FR 33808). There have been no monitored
violations of the SO2 standard in any of the four counties since
1985.
II. Evaluation Criteria
Section 107(d)(3)(D) of the Act, as amended in 1990, authorizes the
Governor of a State to request the redesignation of an area from
nonattainment to attainment. The criteria used to review redesignation
requests are derived from the Act. An area can be redesignated to
attainment if the following conditions are met:
(1) The area has attained the applicable NAAQS;
(2) The area has a fully approved SIP under section 110(k) of the
Act;
(3) The EPA has determined that the improvement in air quality in
the area is due to permanent and enforceable emission reductions;
(4) EPA has determined that the maintenance plan for the area has
met all of the requirements of section 175A of the Act; and
(5) The State has met all requirements applicable to the area under
section 110 and part D of the Act.
III. Summary of State Submittal
The following paragraphs discuss how the State's redesignation
requests for Marion, LaPorte, Vigo and Wayne Counties address the Act's
requirements.
A. Demonstrated Attainment of the NAAQS
As explained in an April 21, 1983, memorandum ``Section 107
Designation Policy Summary'' from the Director of the Office of Air
Quality Planning and Standards, eight consecutive quarters of data
showing SO2 NAAQS attainment are required for redesignation. A
violation of the NAAQS occurs when more than one exceedance of the
SO2 NAAQS is recorded in any year (40 CFR 50.4). Indiana's March
14, 1996, and June 17, 1996, submittals cite ambient monitoring data
showing that Marion, LaPorte, Vigo, and Wayne Counties have met the
NAAQS for the years 1991-1993, which were the three most recent
consecutive years with quality-assured monitoring data. Preliminary
monitoring data for the period of 1994 through 1996 indicates that the
NAAQS are still being met. The State is currently in the process of
quality assuring that data. The highest monitored SO2 values of
1991 through 1993 were well below the SO2 standards. There have
been no exceedences of the SO2 NAAQS at any monitor in any of
these counties since 1985, and no additional SO2 exceedences have
been recorded in the Aerometric Information and Retrieval System (AIRS)
database through July 1996.
Dispersion modeling is commonly used to demonstrate attainment of
the SO2 NAAQS. A September 4, 1992, EPA policy memorandum on
``Procedures for Processing Requests to Redesignate Areas to
Attainment'' explains that additional dispersion modeling is not
required in support of an SO2 redesignation request if an adequate
modeled attainment demonstration was submitted and approved as part of
the fully implemented SIP, and no indication of an existing air quality
deficiency exists. Modeling was performed in 1987 to show that, under
all allowed operating scenarios, the emission limits in these four
counties' SO2 SIPs would lead to attainment and maintenance of the
SO2 standards. The SIP was approved and implemented on September
1, 1988 (53 FR 33806). Dispersion modeling of the various allowed
operating scenarios and modeling using maximum allowable emissions
showed the NAAQS to be protected in each of these counties (53 FR
6845). Furthermore, there have been no SO2 NAAQS exceedences in
any of these areas since 1985. Therefore, EPA did not require Indiana
to submit additional dispersion modeling with its redesignation request
for Marion, LaPorte, Wayne or Vigo Counties. The State has committed to
reevaluate the SO2 modeling for each county every three years and
perform new modeling as necessary to account for the effect of new
sources or significant emission changes in existing sources.
B. Fully Approved SIP
The SIP for the area must be fully approved under section 110(k) of
the Act and must satisfy all requirements that apply to the area. EPA's
guidance for implementing section 110 of the Act is discussed in the
General Preamble to Title I (57 FR 13498, April 16, 1992). The SO2
SIP for Marion, LaPorte, Wayne, and Vigo Counties met the requirements
of Section 110 of the Act and was approved by EPA on September 1, 1988
(53 FR 33806). The SIP supplemented a set of general Statewide SO2
limitations with a set of individual emission limits for specific
sources in the respective counties. The Indiana SO2 SIP included
schedules and timetables for compliance, provided for the operation of
air quality monitors, and included a program to provide for the
enforcement of the emission limits.
C. Permanent and Enforceable Reductions in Emissions
Marion, LaPorte, Wayne, and Vigo Counties' attainment of the
SO2 standards can be attributed to the implementation of the
SO2 SIP controls and other permanent emissions reductions. On
September 1, 1988, EPA approved the control strategies and emissions
limits in Indiana's SO2 SIP for these counties, which rendered
them federally enforceable. The regulations are permanent, and any
future revisions to the rules must be submitted to and approved by the
EPA. Statewide inventories of major SO2 sources as of 1990 were
used to support the redesignation requests.
Indiana reported that since 1990, a number of sources in the four
counties reduced their SO2 emissions, converted to cleaner fuels,
or shut down entirely. The use of lower-sulfur ``cleaner'' fuels is
reflected in the facilities' air permits and federally enforceable SIP
regulations. The facilities which have completely shut down no longer
hold current air emissions permits, and future operations at those
locations would not be allowed to commence without the issuance of a
new air permit by the State under the federally delegated Prevention of
Significant Deterioration program.
D. Fully Approved Maintenance Plan
Under section 107(d)(3)(E) and section 175A of the Act, the State
must submit a maintenance plan in order for an area to be redesignated
to attainment. Section 175A of the Act sets forth the maintenance plan
requirements for areas seeking redesignation from nonattainment to
attainment. The maintenance plan must demonstrate continued attainment
of the applicable NAAQS for at least 10 years after the area is
redesignated. Eight years after the redesignation date, the State is
required to revise its SIP to provide for maintenance of the standard
in the
[[Page 58484]]
affected area for an additional ten-year period. EPA redesignation
policy stated in the September 4, 1992, memorandum lists the five core
provisions that a plan must contain in order to ensure maintenance of
the standards: An attainment inventory, a maintenance demonstration, a
monitoring network, verification of continued attainment, and a
contingency plan. Indiana submitted maintenance plans along with both
its March 14, 1996, redesignation request for Marion County and its
June 17, 1996, redesignation request for LaPorte, Vigo and Wayne
Counties. The following paragraphs discuss Indiana's submittals with
regard to EPA's requirements, and provide the basis for EPA's approval
of the maintenance plans.
1. Attainment Inventory
The State is required to develop an attainment inventory to
identify the level of emissions in the area at the time of
redesignation. Indiana prepared a base year inventory for 1990, and
supplemented it with major source actual emissions data from 1993.
Sources in Indiana must also report their emissions annually to the
State, which will help to verify maintenance of the NAAQS in future
years.
2. Maintenance Demonstration
The State is required to demonstrate maintenance of the NAAQS by
showing that future emissions of a pollutant or its precursors will not
cause a violation of the NAAQS. This demonstration requires the State
to project emissions for the 10-year period following redesignation.
The State projected the SO2 emissions of Marion, LaPorte, Vigo,
and Wayne Counties to the year 2007. Five of Marion County's industries
account for almost 90% of the total SO2 emissions in the county.
One of LaPorte County's industries accounts for more than 95% of the
total SO2 emissions in the county. In Vigo County, one source
accounts for more than 93% of total emissions. Wayne County only has
two major sources, one of which is responsible for about 96% of total
emissions.
Growth projections for the largest facilities were primarily based
on the facilities' plans to comply with the provisions of Title IV of
the Act (Acid Deposition Control). Projections for other major sources
were extrapolated from the United States Department of Commerce Bureau
of Economic Analysis growth factors which are based on statewide
industrial earnings data. A growth factor of 1.5 was used for most
smaller sources, except those which had switched to natural gas or
could otherwise justify a different factor. In LaPorte and Vigo
Counties, the emissions calculated with growth factors from the actual
emissions in 1990 are predicted to drop significantly. The emissions
are predicted to rise in Wayne County but remain below the maximum
allowable emissions which were modeled for and which were shown to be
protective of the NAAQS.
SO2 emissions are projected to increase in Marion County by
2007. However, they are still expected to remain well below the
emission totals for 1985, when the last SO2 exceedance was
monitored. In LaPorte and Vigo Counties, the emissions are predicted to
drop significantly. The emissions are predicted to rise in Wayne County
but remain below the maximum emissions which were modeled for and which
were shown to be protective of the NAAQS.
3. Ambient Monitoring
In accordance with 40 CFR Part 58, after an area has been
redesignated to attainment, the State must continue to operate an
appropriate air quality network to verify the attainment status of the
area. There are nine monitoring sites in Marion County. Three are
operated by a utility company, and the rest are State and Local Air
Monitoring Sites (SLAMS). There are two industry operated monitoring
sites in LaPorte County, both of which are located in Michigan City and
operated by the Northern Indiana Public Service Company (NIPSCO). There
are also two monitors in Vigo County. The Indiana Department of
Environmental Management operates one as a SLAMS and Public Service of
Indiana (PSI) Energy operates the other. In Wayne County there are two
monitors operated by Richmond Power and Light. Indiana has committed to
continue monitoring SO2 at the current SLAMS in Vigo and Marion
Counties and will discuss any future changes in the monitoring network
with the EPA. All data, including that from industry, will be quality
assured by the State according to the requirements of 40 CFR 58. The
monitoring data will be entered in the AIRS system on a timely basis.
4. Verification of Continued Attainment
Each State should ensure that it has the legal authority to
implement and enforce all measures necessary to attain and to maintain
the NAAQS. Subject to an existing State rule (326 IAC 2-6), the Marion,
LaPorte, Vigo, and Wayne Counties facilities will be required to submit
annual statements of their point-source (e.g. stack) emissions. The
State has committed to reevaluate the SO2 modeling every three
years, performing further modeling as necessary to verify that the
SO2 emission limits continue to provide for maintenance of the
SO2 standards. The State does not currently have plans to relax
any of the current Marion, LaPorte, Vigo or Wayne County emission
limits in its SO2 SIP. Any future changes to the State's SO2
limits will be submitted to EPA as a SIP revision, supported by
dispersion modeling showing that the NAAQS will not be violated.
5. Contingency Plan
Section 175A of the Act requires that a maintenance plan includes
contingency provisions as necessary to promptly correct any violation
of the NAAQS that occurs after redesignation of the area. The
contingency plan is considered to be an enforceable part of the SIP and
should ensure that the contingency measures are implemented expediently
once they are triggered. Most of the SO2 emissions in these
counties come from large utilities and other point sources. The
emissions from these sources are tracked on a short-term basis under
State regulations and on a long-term basis via the facilities' Title IV
compliance plans. The State intends to use this information to identify
compliance lapses and initiate enforcement activities.
Indiana has the authority and resources necessary to enforce
against emission limit violations. The State will continue to pursue
enforcement actions aggressively to ensure full compliance with the
SO2 SIP limits. As necessary, the State will seek to place
stricter emission controls on facilities found to have triggered
contingency actions. Such measures would be adopted in accordance with
the State's normal rulemaking procedures and submitted to EPA as SIP
revisions. Indiana has committed to begin implementing its contingency
plan when the second high monitored SO2 values exceed 90 percent
of the 3-hour or 24-hour NAAQS. And, if a violation occurs, the State
will conduct a detailed evaluation to determine the cause of the
violation and then institute measures to remedy the situation.
The attainment inventories, maintenance demonstrations, monitoring
data, attainment verifications and contingency plans submitted for
Marion, LaPorte, Vigo, and Wayne Counties constitute sound maintenance
plans and satisfy EPA's requirements.
[[Page 58485]]
E. Part D and Other Section 110 Requirements
EPA approved the SO2 SIP for Marion, LaPorte, Vigo, and Wayne
Counties on September 1, 1988, after having concluded that the plan
satisfied the requirements of part D and Section 110 of the Act.
Several of the Section 110 requirements were revised in the 1990
amendments to the Act. However, the existing SIP also conforms with the
new provisions of the Act. The plan provides for the implementation of
reasonably available control measures for SO2 under Indiana's SIP
rule 326 IAC 7-4-2. As required by Part D of the Act, Indiana has a
fully approved and implemented New Source Review. The existing
Prevention of Significant Deterioration program, which was federally
delegated for all attainment areas, will apply in all of Marion,
LaPorte, Vigo, and Wayne Counties subsequent to this approval.
1. Section 176 Conformity Requirements
Section 176 of the Act requires States to revise their SIPs to
establish criteria and procedures to ensure that individual Federal
actions will conform to the overall air quality planning goals in the
applicable State SIP. Section 176 further provides that the State's
conformity revisions must be consistent with the Federal conformity
regulations promulgated by EPA under the Act. The requirement used by
Federal agencies to determine conformity is defined in 40 CFR Part 93
Subpart B (``general conformity'').
Indiana has committed to adopt general conformity rules for
SO2 in Marion, LaPorte, Vigo, and Wayne Counties to satisfy
provisions of Part D. The State rulemaking process is now under way.
The conformity regulations that apply to transportation plans and
projects, ``transportation conformity'', does not apply to SO2 SIP
actions.
The EPA believes it is reasonable to interpret the conformity
requirements as not being applicable requirements for purposes of
evaluating redesignation requests under section 107(d). The rationale
for this is based on a combination of two factors. First, the
requirement to submit SIP revisions to comply with the conformity
provisions of the Act continues to apply to areas after redesignation
to attainment, since such areas would be subject to a section 175A
maintenance plan. Second, EPA's Federal conformity rules require the
performance of conformity analyses in the absence of federally approved
State rules. Therefore, because areas are subject to the conformity
requirements regardless of whether they are redesignated to attainment,
and must implement conformity under Federal rules if State rules are
not yet approved, the EPA believes it is reasonable to view these
requirements as not being applicable requirements for purposes of
evaluation of a redesignation request. Consequently, the SO2
redesignation requests for Marion, LaPorte, Vigo, and Wayne Counties
may be approved notwithstanding the lack of fully approved general
conformity rules. Refer to EPA's action in the Tampa, Florida ozone
redesignation finalized on December 7, 1995 (60 FR 627428).
IV. Final Rulemaking Action
EPA is approving two redesignation requests from the State of
Indiana which were submitted on March 14, 1996, and June 17, 1996. EPA
therefore is redesignating Lawrence, Washington, and Warren Townships,
along with the remainder of Marion County to attainment for SO2,
and is redesignating LaPorte, Vigo, and Wayne Counties in their
entirety to attainment for SO2. The EPA is also approving the
SO2 maintenance plans for Marion, LaPorte, Vigo, and Wayne
Counties, which were submitted with the redesignation requests, to
ensure that attainment will be maintained. The EPA has completed
analysis of these SIP revision requests based on a review of the
materials presented, and has determined that they are approvable.
The EPA is publishing this action without prior proposal because
the Agency views this as a noncontroversial amendment and anticipates
no adverse comments. However, in a separate document in this Federal
Register publication, the EPA is proposing to approve the SIP revision
should adverse or critical comments be filed. This action will be
effective January 14, 1997 unless, by December 16, 1996, adverse or
critical comments are received. Note that an adverse comment for only
one county will not affect the approval action for the remainder of the
counties.
If the EPA receives such comments, the actions affecting the county
commented upon will be withdrawn before the effective date by
publishing a subsequent notice that will withdraw the parts of the
final action applicable to the county commented upon. All public
comments received will be addressed in a subsequent final rule based on
applicable parts of this action serving as a proposed rule. The EPA
will not institute a second comment period on this action. Any parties
interested in commenting on this action should do so at this time. If
no such comments are received, the public is advised that this action
will be effective January 14, 1997.
Nothing in this action should be construed as permitting or
allowing or establishing a precedent for any future request for
revision to any state implementation plan. Each request for revision to
the state implementation plan shall be considered separately in light
of specific technical, economic, and environmental factors and in
relation to relevant statutory and regulatory requirements.
V. Administrative Requirements
A. Executive Order 12866
This action has been classified as a Table 3 action for signature
by the Regional Administrator under the procedures published in the
Federal Register on January 19, 1989 (54 FR 2214-2225), as revised by a
July 10, 1995 memorandum from Mary D. Nichols, Assistant Administrator
for Air and Radiation. The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has
exempted this regulatory action from Executive Order 12866 review.
B. Regulatory Flexibility Act
Under the Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 600 et seq, EPA must
prepare a regulatory flexibility analysis assessing the impact of any
proposed or final rule on small entities. 5 U.S.C. 603 and 604.
Alternatively, EPA may certify that the rule will not have a
significant impact on a substantial number of small entities. Small
entities include small businesses, small not-for-profit enterprises,
and government entities with jurisdiction over populations of less than
50,000.
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 impose any new requirements, the
Administrator certifies that it does not have a significant impact on
any small entities affected. Moreover, due to the nature of the
Federal-State relationship under the Act, preparation of a flexibility
analysis would constitute Federal inquiry into the economic
reasonableness of state action. 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).
Redesignation of an area to attainment under section 107(d)(3)(E)
of the Act does not impose any new requirements on small entities.
Redesignation is an action that affects the status of a
[[Page 58486]]
geographical area and does not impose any regulatory requirements on
sources. The Administrator certifies that the approval of the
redesignation request will not affect a substantial number of small
entities.
C. Unfunded Mandates
Under Section 202 of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995,
signed into law on March 22, 1995, EPA must undertake various actions
in association with 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 the private sector, of $100 million
or more. This Federal action approves pre-existing requirements under
state or local law, and imposes no new Federal requirements.
Accordingly, no additional costs to state, local, or tribal
governments, or the private sector, result from this action.
D. Submission to Congress and the General Accounting Office
Under 5 U.S.C. 801(a)(1)(A) as added by the Small Business
Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996, EPA submitted a report
containing this rule and other required information to the U.S. Senate,
the U.S. House of Representatives and the Controller General of the
General Accounting Office prior to publication of the rule in today's
Federal Register. This rule is not a ``major rule'' as defined by
U.S.C. section 804(2).
E. Petitions for Judicial Review
Under section 307(b)(1) of the Clean Air Act, petitions for
judicial review of this action must be filed in the United States Court
of Appeals for the appropriate circuit by January 14, 1997. Filing a
petition for reconsideration by the Administrator of this final rule
does not affect the finality of this rule for the purposes of judicial
review nor does it extend the time within which a petition for judicial
review may be filed, and shall not postpone the effectiveness of such
rule or action. This action may not be challenged later in proceedings
to enforce is requirements.
