-
Start Preamble
AGENCY:
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION:
Direct final rule.
SUMMARY:
The Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976, as amended (RCRA), authorizes the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to grant approval to states to operate their underground storage tank programs in lieu of the federal program. The EPA codifies its decision to approve state underground storage tank programs and incorporate by reference those provisions of the state statutes and regulations that EPA has approved. This action codifies the prior approval of South Carolina's underground storage tank program, which EPA approved on August 28, 2002, and incorporates by reference approved provisions of South Carolina's statutes and regulations.
DATES:
This direct final rule is effective June 9, 2014, unless EPA publishes a prior Federal Register notice withdrawing this direct final rule. All comments on the codification of South Carolina's underground storage tank program must be received by the close of business May 12, 2014. The incorporation by reference of certain publications listed in the regulations is approved by the Director of the Federal Register, as of June 9, 2014, in accordance with 5 U.S.C. 552(a) and 1 CFR part 51.

A. Background
Section 9004 of RCRA, 42 U.S.C. 6991c, authorizes EPA to approve a state underground storage tank program to operate in the state in lieu of the federal underground storage tank program. EPA published a notice of final determination in the Federal Register announcing its decision to grant approval to South Carolina on August 28, 2002, and approval was effective on September 27, 2002 (67 FR 55160-55162).
EPA codifies its approval of state programs in 40 CFR Part 282, and incorporates by reference therein the state's statutes and regulations. Today's action codifies EPA's prior approval of South Carolina's underground storage tank program. This codification reflects the state program in effect at the time EPA granted South Carolina approval under Section 9004(a), 42 U.S.C. 6991c, for its underground storage tank program. Notice and opportunity for comment were provided earlier on EPA's decision to approve the South Carolina program, and EPA is not now reopening that decision nor requesting comment on it.
This effort provides clear notice to the public of the scope of the approved program in South Carolina. By codifying the approved South Carolina program and by amending the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) whenever a new or different set of requirements is approved in South Carolina, the status of federally-approved requirements of the South Carolina program will be readily discernible. Only those provisions of the South Carolina underground storage tank program EPA has approved will be incorporated by reference.
To codify EPA's approval of South Carolina's underground storage tank program, EPA has added Section 282.90 to Title 40 of the CFR. Section 282.90(d)(1)(i) incorporates by reference the State's statutes and regulations that make up the approved program. Section 282.90(d) also references the Attorney General's Statement, the Demonstration of Adequate Enforcement Procedures, the Program Description, and the Memorandum of Agreement, which were evaluated as part of the approval process of the underground storage tank program, in accordance with Subtitle I of RCRA.
EPA retains the authority, in accordance with Sections 9003(h), 9005 and 9006 of Subtitle I of RCRA, 42 U.S.C. 6991b(h), 6991d and 6991e, and other applicable statutory and regulatory provisions, to undertake corrective actions, inspections and enforcement actions in approved States. With respect to such an enforcement action, EPA will rely on federal sanctions, federal inspection authorities, and federal procedures rather than the state authorized analogues to these provisions. Therefore, the South Carolina inspection and enforcement authorities are not incorporated by reference, nor are they part of South Carolinas's approved state program which operates in lieu of the federal program. These authorities, however, are listed in Section 282.90(d)(1)(ii) for informational purposes, and also because EPA considered them in determining the adequacy of South Carolina's enforcement authority. South Carolina's authority to inspect and enforce the State's underground storage tank requirements continues to operate independently under State law.
Some provisions of South Carolina's underground storage tank program are not part of the federally approved State program. These non-approved provisions are not part of the RCRA Subtitle I program because they are “broader in scope” than Subtitle I of RCRA. See 40 CFR 281.12(a)(3)(ii). As a result, State provisions which are “broader in scope” than the federal program are not incorporated by reference in 40 CFR Part 282. Section 282.90(d)(1)(iii) of the codification simply lists for reference and clarity the South Carolina statutory and regulatory provisions which are “broader in scope” than the federal program and which are not, therefore, part of the approved State program being codified today. “Broader in scope” provisions cannot be enforced by EPA; the State, however, will continue to enforce such provisions.
When the phrases, “insofar” and “except insofar,” are used in Appendix A (which provides an informational listing of the state requirements incorporated by reference in CFR Part 282), refer to the binders in the codification materials for specifics as to any words, phrases, sentences, paragraphs, or subsections that are “crossed-out” in the binders. These crossed-out materials are not incorporated by reference in Part 282 of the Code of Federal Regulations.
B. Statutory and Executive Order Review
This action codifies South Carolina's underground storage tank program that Start Printed Page 19832EPA has previously approved pursuant to RCRA Section 9004, and imposes no requirements other than those imposed by State law. This action complies with applicable executive orders and statutory provisions as follows: 1. Executive Order 12866: Regulatory Planning Review—The Office of Management and Budget has exempted this action from its review under Executive Order (E.O.) 12866. 2. Paperwork Reduction Act—This action does not impose an information collection burden under the Paperwork Reduction Act, 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq., because this action does not establish or modify any information or recordkeeping requirements for the regulated community, and only seeks to codify the pre-existing and previously approved requirements under State law and imposes no additional requirements beyond those imposed by State law. 3. Regulatory Flexibility Act and Unfunded Mandates Reform Act—After considering the economic impacts of today's action on small entities under the Regulatory Flexibility Act, I certify that this action will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities because the action will only have the effect of authorizing pre-existing requirements under State law and imposes no additional requirements beyond those imposed by State law. 4. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act—Because this action codifies pre-existing requirements under South Carolina state law and does not impose any additional enforceable duty beyond that required by state law, it does not contain any unfunded mandate or significantly or uniquely affect small governments, as described in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act. 5. Executive Order 13132: Federalism—E.O. 13132 does not apply to this action because it will not have Federalism implications. It will not have substantial direct effects on the States, on the relationship between the national government and the States, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities among various levels of government. 6. Executive Order 13175: Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal Governments—This action will not have substantial direct effects on tribal governments, on the relationship between the Federal Government and Indian tribes, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities between the Federal Government and Indian tribes, as specified in Executive Order 13175. This action merely incorporates by reference the South Carolina underground storage tank program requirements that EPA has already approved. South Carolina is not approved to implement RCRA underground storage tank program in Indian Country. This action has no effect on the underground storage tank program that EPA implements in Indian Country. Thus, Executive Order 13175 does not apply to this action. 7. Executive Order 13045: Protection of Children from Environmental Health & Safety Risks—EPA interprets Executive Order 13045 (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997) as applying only to those regulatory actions that concern health or safety risks, such that the analysis required under Section 5-501 of the Executive Order has the potential to influence the regulation. This action is not subject to Executive Order 13045 because it will codify a previously approved state program. 8. Executive Order 13211: Actions that Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use—This action is not subject to E.O. 13211 because it is not a “significant regulatory action” as defined in E.O. 12866. 9. National Technology Transfer And Advancement Act—EPA has previously addressed the non-applicability of the National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act in its final approval of this state program. See 67 FR 55160. Section 12(d) of the National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (“NTTAA”), (15 U.S.C. 272 note), directs EPA to provide Congress, through OMB, explanations when the Agency decides not to use available and applicable voluntary consensus standards. This action does not involve technical standards. Therefore, Section 12(d) of the National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act does not apply to this action. 10. Executive Order 12898: Federal Actions To Address Environmental Justice in Minority Populations and Low Income Populations—Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994) establishes Federal executive policy on environmental justice. Its main provision directs Federal agencies, to the greatest extent practicable and permitted by law, to make environmental justice part of their mission by identifying and addressing, as appropriate, disproportionately high and adverse human health or environmental effects of their programs, policies, and activities on minority populations and low-income populations in the United States. EPA has determined that this action will not have disproportionately high and adverse human health or environmental effects on minority or low-income populations. This action does not affect the level of protection provided to human health or the environment because this action simply codifies pre-existing and previously approved State rules which are no less stringent than existing Federal requirements. 11. Congressional Review Act—EPA will submit a report containing this action and other information required by the Congressional Review Act (5 U.S.C. 801 et seq.) to the U.S. Senate, the U.S. House of Representatives, and the Comptroller General of the United States prior to publication in the Federal Register. A major rule cannot take effect until 60 days after it is published in the Federal Register. This action is not a “major rule” as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2).
