    I. Background

    The 1990 CAA required each State to submit a revision to its SIP to address the requirements of Section 176(c) of the Act pertaining to conformity determinations for metropolitan transportation plans, transportation improvement programs and other projects funded by the Federal Highway Administration or the Federal Transit Administration. This process is known as “transportation conformity,” and serves to ensure that federally supported highway and transit projects are consistent with the purpose of the State's air quality plans in nonattainment and maintenance areas. EPA promulgated final rules on transportation conformity on November, 24, 1993 (58 FR 62188), and these rules have been revised many times since; the latest revision is that of January 24, 2008 (73 FR 4420). The initial New Mexico SIP revision that incorporated EPA's conformity rules was adopted on November 9, 1998, and it also has been revised several times to remain in alignment with the Federal rules. The latest EPA approval of New Mexico transportation conformity SIP provisions was on March 20, 2000 (65 FR 14877). This approval was a partial approval, with no action taken on sections 109.C.1, 114, 128.C-F, 137.E, 139.A.2, 140.A.1, and 147.B, which could not be approved at that time due to the March 2, 1999 United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit decision in Environmental Defense Fund v. Environmental Protection Agency, 167 F.3d 641 (D.C. Cir. 1999). Revisions to the New Mexico transportation conformity rules were submitted by the State to EPA on November 2, 2006, June 27, 2007, and May 13, 2009.

    The November 2, 2006 SIP revision addresses amendments to the Federal transportation conformity rule made on August 6, 2002 (67 FR 50808) and July 1, 2004 (68 FR 40003). The June 27, 2007 SIP revision submitted by the State addresses amendments to the Federal transportation conformity rule made on May 6, 2005 (70 FR 24279) and March 10, 2006 (71 FR 12467). The May 13, 2009 SIP revision submitted by the State addresses amendments to the Federal transportation conformity rule made on January 24, 2008 (73 FR 4420). For more information on the State submittals and the amendments to the Federal transportation conformity rule please see our Technical Support Document (TSD) found in the electronic docket for this action. The electronic docket can be found at the Web site http://www.regulations.gov (Docket number EPA-R06-OAR-2006-0990).

    II. Analysis of the State's Submittals

    1. November 2, 2006, New Mexico SIP Submittal

    In this submittal the State amended NMAC 20.2.99 as represented in Table 1, to bring the rules into alignment with Federal provisions. These changes include:

    • Minor revisions to the 18-month requirement for the initial SIP submissions;
    • Addition of a grace period for newly designated nonattainment areas;
    • Adding the 1997 8-hour Ozone and fine particulate matter (PM2.5) National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS); and
    • Miscellaneous revisions to clarify the existing regulation and improve implementation.

    This revision is consistent with the amendments to the Federal transportation conformity rule made on August 6, 2002 (67 FR 50808) and July 1, 2004 (68 FR 40003) which incorporate:

    • A requirement that conformity to be redetermined within 18 months of an initial State implementation plan submission;
    • A one-year grace period for newly designated nonattainment areas, consistent with an October 27, 2000 amendment to the Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. 7506(c)(6));
    • Procedures for implementing conformity for the 1997 ozone and PM2.5 NAAQS;
    • Procedures for advancing highway and transit projects during a conformity lapse, and
    • The administrative process for determining whether the motor vehicle emissions budgets (MVEB) in SIP submissions are appropriate to use in conformity determinations.

    A more detailed analysis of the amendments contained in this SIP submittal can be found in the TSD found in the electronic docket for this action.

    2. June 27, 2007, New Mexico SIP Submittal

    In this submittal the State amended NMAC 20.2.99 as represented in Table 1, to bring the rules into alignment with Federal provisions by:

    • Adding nitrogen oxides (NOX), volatile organic compounds (VOCs), sulfur oxides (SOX), and ammonia (NH3), each of which are precursors to PM2.5, to the transportation conformity determinations for PM2.5 nonattainment and maintenance areas; and
    • Establishing criteria for which transportation projects must be analyzed for local impacts of particle emissions in nonttainment and maintenance areas for the PM2.5 and coarse particulate matter (PM10) NAAQS.

    This revision is consistent with the amendments to the Federal transportation conformity rule made on May 6, 2005 (70 FR 24279) and March 10, 2006 (71 FR 12467) which:

    • Incorporate NOX, VOCs, SOX, and NH3 as possible transportation-related PM2.5 precursors;
    • Require that upon submittal of a PM2.5 SIP, a PM2.5 precursor must be considered in an area's conformity determinations if the SIP determines that emissions for that precursor are a significant contributor to the area's PM2.5 air quality problem;
    • Require criteria for determining which transportation projects must be analyzed for local impacts of particle emissions in PM2.5 and PM10 nonattainment and maintenance areas.

    A more detailed analysis of the amendments contained in this SIP submittal can be found in the TSD found in the electronic docket for this action.

    2. May 13, 2009, New Mexico SIP Submittal

    In this submittal the State amended NMAC 20.2.99 sections represented in Table 1 of this notice. The amendments help bring the State rules into alignment with Federal provisions.

    These changes:

    • Provide more time for State and local governments to meet conformity requirements;
    • Provide a one-year grace period before the consequences of not meeting certain conformity requirements apply;
    • Allow the option of shortening the timeframe of conformity determinations;
    • Provide procedures for areas to use in substituting or adding transportation control measures (TCMs) to approved SIPs, and;
    • Streamline other provisions.

    This revision is consistent with the January 24, 2008 (73 FR 4420) transportation conformity rule amendments. These amendments were made by EPA to implement the 2005 Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU), (Pub. L. 109-59), and implement other changes not related to SAFETEA-LU. Prior to SAFETEA-LU, States were required to address these provisions as well as all other Federal conformity rule provisions in their conformity SIPs. With amendments to address SAFETEA-LU, EPA now allows States to submit Start Printed Page 21171conformity SIPs that address only the following sections of the Federal rule that need to be tailored to a State's individual circumstances:

    • 40 CFR 93.105, which addresses consultation procedures;
    • 40 CFR 93.122(a)(4)(ii), which states that conformity SIPs must require that written commitments to control measures be obtained prior to a conformity determination if the control measures are not included in an MPO's transportation plan and TIP, and that such commitments be fulfilled; and
    • 40 CFR 93.125(c), which states that conformity SIPs must require that written commitments to mitigation measures be obtained prior to a project-level conformity determination, and that project sponsors comply with such commitments.

    Other changes to Federal transportation conformity rule regulations not related to SAFETEA-LU were made:

    • Allowing the U.S. Department of Transportation, in consultation with EPA, to make categorical hot-spot findings for projects in areas that are in nonattainment or maintenance for carbon monoxide; and
    • Removing the provision that allowed 8-hour ozone areas to use other tests for conformity instead of their 1-hour ozone SIP budgets.

    However, the State has opted to revise 20.2.99 NMAC to reflect all amendments to the Federal Transportation Conformity Rule. A more detailed analysis of the amendments contained in this SIP submittal can be found in the TSD for this action.

    III. Final Action

    EPA is approving revisions to the New Mexico SIP and associated rules which were submitted by NMED on November 2, 2006, June 27, 2007, and May 13, 2009. These revisions achieve the purpose of bringing the State SIP and associated rules into alignment with Federal statutes and regulations. Table 1 represents the revised sections of NMAC 20.2.99 that EPA is approving in this action. Where sections were repeated in subsequent revisions, the more recent revisions are taken to supersede the previous revisions, since the more recent language captures the previous revisions.

    We have evaluated the State's submittals and have determined that they meet the applicable requirements of the Clean Air Act and EPA regulations, and are consistent with EPA policy.

    EPA is publishing this rule without prior proposal because we view this as a non-controversial amendment and anticipate no adverse comments. However, in the proposed rules section of this Federal Register publication, we are publishing a separate document that will serve as the proposal to approve the SIP revision if relevant adverse comments are received. This rule will be effective on June 22, 2010 without further notice unless we receive adverse comment by May 24, 2010. If we receive adverse comments, we will publish a timely withdrawal in the Federal Register informing the public that the rule will not take effect. We will address all public comments in a subsequent final rule based on the proposed rule. We will not institute a second comment period on this action. Any parties interested in commenting must do so now. Please note that if we receive adverse comment on an amendment, paragraph, or section of this rule and if that provision may be severed from the remainder of the rule, we may adopt as final those provisions of the rule that are not the subject of an adverse comment.

    IV. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

    Under the Clean Air Act, the Administrator is required to approve a SIP submission that complies with the provisions of the Act and applicable Federal regulations. 42 U.S.C. 7410(k); 40 CFR 52.02(a). Thus, in reviewing SIP submissions, EPA's role is to approve State choices, provided that they meet the criteria of the Clean Air Act. Accordingly, this action merely approves State law as meeting Federal requirements and does not impose additional requirements beyond those imposed by State law. For that reason, this action:

    • Is not a “significant regulatory action” subject to review by the Office of Management and Budget under Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993);
    • Does not impose an information collection burden under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.);
    • Is certified as not having a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities under the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.);
    • Does not contain any unfunded mandate or significantly or uniquely affect small governments, as described in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-4);
    • Does not have Federalism implications as specified in Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999);
    • Is not an economically significant regulatory action based on health or safety risks subject to Executive Order 13045 (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997);
    • Is not a significant regulatory action subject to Executive Order 13211 (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001);
    • Is not subject to requirements of Section 12(d) of the National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272 note) because application of those requirements would be inconsistent with the Clean Air Act; and
    • Does not provide EPA with the discretionary authority to address, as appropriate, disproportionate human health or environmental effects, using practicable and legally permissible methods, under Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994). In addition, this rule does not have tribal implications as specified by Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000), because the SIP is not approved to apply in Indian country located in the State, and EPA notes that it will not impose substantial direct costs on tribal governments or preempt tribal law.

    The Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801 et seq., as added by the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Start Printed Page 21172Fairness 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 the Congress and to the Comptroller General of the United States. EPA will submit a report containing this action 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. 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).

    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 June 22, 2010. Filing a petition for reconsideration by the Administrator of this final rule does not affect the finality of this action 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 its requirements. (See section 307(b)(2).)
