    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

    I. Summary of This Action

    Section 553 of the Administrative Procedure Act (APA), 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(B), provides that, when an agency for good cause finds that notice and public procedure are impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to the public interest, the agency may issue a rule without providing notice and an opportunity for public comment. The EPA has determined that for this action, there is good cause for making these technical corrections final without a prior proposal and the opportunity for comment because the Agency is correcting minor errors that do not substantially change the Agency action taken in each of the four final rules discussed. These technical corrections will ensure that the regulatory text agrees with the description of the rule that the EPA provided in the final rule preamble for each of the four rules discussed in this action. Thus, notice and comment public procedures are unnecessary. The Agency finds that this constitutes a good cause under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(B). See also the final sentence of section 307(d)(1) of the Clean Air Act (CAA), 42 U.S.C. 307(d)(1), indicating that the good cause provisions in subsection 553(b) of the APA continue to apply to this type of rulemaking under section 307(d) of the CAA. Refer to sections I.A through I.D of this preamble for a more detailed discussion of the goof cause rationale for each rule.

    A. Summary of Technical Corrections to the NESHAP for Surface Coating of Automobiles and Light-Duty Trucks and Incorporation by Reference

    In the July 8, 2020, final rule (85 FR 41100) the EPA included reference to the document, Protocol for Determining the Volatile Organic Compound Emission Rate of Automobile and Light-Duty Truck Topcoat, published December 1988 (EPA-450/3-88-018). This document was found to be out-of-date. In this action, the EPA is amending the rule to refer to the document, Protocol for Determining the Daily Volatile Organic Compound Emission Rate of Automobile and Light-Duty Truck Primer-Surfacer and Topcoat, published September 2008 (EPA-453/R-08-002). This protocol determines the daily VOC emission rate (pounds of VOC per gallon of coating solids deposited) for a complete auto and light duty truck topcoat operation. The EPA has made, and will continue to make, the EPA document generally available electronically through https://www.regulations.gov/​ and at the appropriate EPA office (see the ADDRESSES section of this preamble for more information). A copy of the red line version of the corrected rule language is available in Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OAR-2019-0314. The intent of the rule remains unchanged by correcting the reference. The protocols provided by the revised September 2008 document (EPA-453/R-08-002) are consistent with the protocols of the December 1988 document (EPA-450/3-88-018); therefore, the EPA finds good cause to make the correction in this direct final action.

    B. Summary of Technical Corrections to the NESHAP for Surface Coating of Metal Cans

    The publication of the February 25, 2020, final rule (85 FR 10828) inadvertently deleted Equation 1 of the rule from the text of the Code of Federal Regulations. This equation was not intended to be deleted. In this action, the EPA is restoring the deleted equation and the associated definitions to § 63.3541(h). A red line version of the corrected rule language is available in Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OAR-2017-0684. Equation 1 is used to calculate organic HAP emission reductions from controlled coating operations not using Start Printed Page 66039 liquid-liquid material balances. Equation 1 was not part of the 2020 final rule amendments and was already in the rule prior to the amendments. Section 63.3541(h) of the rule references Equation 1, and without the equation, the reference is incomplete; therefore, the EPA finds good cause to make the correction in this direct final action.

    C. Summary of Technical Corrections to the NESHAP for Boat Manufacturing

    Table 8 of the March 20, 2020, final rule (85 FR 15960) included specific references to the general provisions of 40 CFR part 63, subpart A. After promulgation, the EPA found that Table 8 indicates that 40 CFR 63.6(f) applies to the rule, but, in fact, section 63.6(f)(1) includes start-up, shutdown, and malfunction (SSM) language that has been vacated by the D.C. Circuit and the EPA stated in the preamble the Agency intended to remove from the Boat Manufacturing NESHAP (85 FR at 15963 and 15967-68). In this action, the EPA is revising Table 8 to indicate § 63.6(f)(1) does not apply. A red line version of the corrected rule language is available in Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OAR-2016-0447. The correction to the reference in Table 8 only corrects the reference to subpart A and does not change the requirement to comply with emission limits of the rule at all times, as addressed in the proposed and final rule preamble. These corrections will ensure that the regulatory text agrees with the description of the rule that was provided in the final rule preamble; therefore, the EPA finds good cause to make the correction in this direct final action.

    D. Summary of Technical Corrections to the NESHAP for Clay Ceramic Manufacturing

    Following signature of the November 1, 2019, final rule (84 FR 58601), the EPA discovered inadvertent errors in Table 2 of the rule. In several instances, the rows of the table were misaligned when published. Table 2 of the rule provides operating limits for regulated emission sources and their various control technology configurations and includes three columns. As a result of the error in publication, several of the control technologies identified in the rightmost column (column 3) were misaligned with the sources identified in the leftmost column (column 1), so that they no longer were appropriate or relevant. In this action, the EPA is correcting the table to ensure the control technology information is relevant to the appropriate source. In addition, the EPA's Electronic Reporting Tool (ERT) URL included a typographical error rendering the weblink, as written in the rule text, inoperable. This action corrects the URL of the weblink to ensure accessibility of the tool. A red line version of the corrected rule language is available in Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OAR-2013-0290. The corrections to Table 8 and to the URL do not affect the standards of the rule, and only ensure the information provided is accurate and relevant; therefore, the EPA finds good cause to make the correction in this direct final action.

    II. Summary of Cost, Environmental, and Economic Impacts

    This action will have no cost, environmental, energy, or economic impacts beyond those impacts presented in the July 8, 2020, NESHAP for Surface Coating of Automobiles and Light-Duty Trucks final rule (85 FR 41100), the February 25, 2020, NESHAP for Surface Coating of Metal Cans final rule (85 FR 10828), the March 20, 2020, NESHAP for Boat Manufacturing final rule (85 FR 15960), and the October 26, 2015 NESHAP for Clay Ceramics Manufacturing final rule (84 FR 58601). The technical corrections are cost neutral.

    2.1 You may conduct panel testing to determine the capture efficiency of spray booth emissions. You must follow the instructions and calculations in this appendix A, and use the panel testing procedures in ASTM Method D5087-02, “Standard Test Method for Determining Amount of Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) Released from Solvent-borne Automotive Coatings and Available for Removal in a VOC Control Device (Abatement)” (incorporated by reference, see § 63.14), or the guidelines presented in “Protocol for Determining the Daily Volatile Organic Compound Emission Rate of Automobile and Light-Duty Truck Primer-Surfacer and Topcoat” EPA-453/R-08-002 (incorporated by reference, see § 63.14). You must weigh panels at the points described in section 2.5 of this appendix A and perform calculations as described in sections 3 and 4 of this appendix A. You may conduct panel tests on the production paint line in your facility or in a laboratory simulation of the production paint line in your facility.

    2.2 You may conduct panel testing on representative coatings as described in “Protocol for Determining the Daily Volatile Organic Compound Emission Rate of Automobile and Light-Duty Truck Primer-Surfacer and Topcoat” EPA-453/R-08-002 (incorporated by reference, see § 63.14). If you panel test representative coatings, then you may calculate either a unique percent Start Printed Page 66041 capture efficiency value for each coating grouped with that representative coating, or a composite percent capture efficiency value for the group of coatings. If you panel test each coating, then you must convert the panel test result for each coating to a unique percent capture efficiency value for that coating.

    * * * * *

    4.1 If you panel test representative coatings, then you may convert the panel test result for each representative coating from section 3.3 of this appendix A either to a unique percent capture efficiency value for each coating grouped with that representative coating by using coating specific values for the mass fraction coating solids and mass fraction VOC in section 4.2 of this appendix A, or to a composite percent capture efficiency value for the group of coatings by using the average values for the group of coatings for mass fraction coating solids and mass fraction VOC in section 4.2 of this appendix A. If you panel test each coating, then you must convert the panel test result for each coating to a unique percent capture efficiency value by using coating specific values for the mass fraction coating solids and mass fraction VOC in section 4.2 of this appendix A. The mass fraction of VOC in the coating and the mass fraction of solids in the coating must be determined by Method 24 (appendix A-7 to 40 CFR part 60) or by following the guidelines for combining analytical VOC content and formulation solvent content presented in “Protocol for Determining the Daily Volatile Organic Compound Emission Rate of Automobile and Light-Duty Truck Primer-Surfacer and Topcoat” EPA-453/R-08-002 (incorporated by reference, see § 63.14).

    7. Section 63.3541 is amended by revising paragraph (h) to read as follows:

    End Amendment Part
    How do I demonstrate initial compliance?
    * * * * *

    (h) Calculate the organic HAP emission reduction for each controlled coating operation not using liquid-liquid material balances. For each controlled coating operation using an emission capture system and add-on control device, other than a solvent recovery system for which you conduct liquid-liquid material balances, calculate the organic HAP emission reduction, using Equation 1 of this section. The calculation applies the emission capture system efficiency and add-on control device efficiency to the mass of organic HAP contained in the coatings and thinners that are used in the coating operation served by the emission capture system and add-on control device during each month. For any period of time a deviation specified in § 63.3542(c) or (d) occurs in the controlled coating operation, you must assume zero efficiency for the emission capture system and add-on control device, unless you have other data indicating the actual efficiency of the emission capture system and add-on control device, and the use of these data has been approved by the Administrator. Equation 1 of this section treats the materials used during such a deviation as if they were used on an uncontrolled coating operation for the time period of the deviation.

    Where:

    Hc = Mass of organic HAP emission reduction for the controlled coating operation during the month, kg.

    Ac = Total mass of organic HAP in the coatings used in the controlled coating operation during the month, kg, as calculated in Equation 1A of this section.

    Bc = Total mass of organic HAP in the thinners used in the controlled coating operation during the month, kg, as calculated in Equation 1B of this section.

    Hunc = Total mass of organic HAP in the coatings and thinners used during all deviations specified in § 63.3542(c) and (d) that occurred during the month in the controlled coating operation, kg, as calculated in Equation 1C of this section.

    CE = Capture efficiency of the emission capture system vented to the add-on control device, percent. Use the test methods and procedures specified in §§ 63.3543 and 63.3544 to measure and record capture efficiency.

    DRE = Organic HAP destruction or removal efficiency of the add-on control device, percent. Use the test methods and procedures in §§ 63.3543 and 63.3545 to measure and record the organic HAP destruction or removal efficiency.
