[Federal Register: April 21, 2009 (Volume 74, Number 75)] [Rules and Regulations] [Page 18141-18148] From the Federal Register Online via GPO Access [wais.access.gpo.gov] [DOCID:fr21ap09-12] ----------------------------------------------------------------------- ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY 40 CFR Part 52 [R08-ND-2008-0001; FRL-8892-7] Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans; North Dakota; Update to Materials Incorporated by Reference AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). ACTION: Final rule; Notice of administrative change. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY: EPA is updating the materials submitted by North Dakota that are incorporated by reference (IBR) into the State Implementation Plan (SIP). The regulations affected by this update have been previously submitted by the Governor of North Dakota and approved by EPA. This update affects the SIP materials that are available for public inspection at the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA), the Air and Radiation Docket and Information Center located at EPA Headquarters in Washington, DC, and the Regional Office. DATES: Effective Date: This action is effective April 21, 2009. ADDRESSES: SIP materials which are incorporated by reference into 40 CFR part 52 are available for inspection Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., excluding federal holidays, at the Air Program, Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Region 8, 1595 Wynkoop Street, Denver, Colorado 80202-1129. EPA requests that, if at all possible, you contact the individual listed in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section to arrange a time to view the hard copy of the North Dakota SIP compilation. An electronic copy of the North Dakota regulations we have approved for incorporation into the SIP are also available by accessing http://www.epa.gov/region8/air/sip.html. A hard copy of the regulatory and source-specific portions of the compilation will also be maintained at the Air and Radiation Docket and Information Center, EPA West Building, Room 3334, 1301 Constitution Ave., NW., Washington, DC 20460 and the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA). If you wish to obtain materials from a docket in the EPA Headquarters Library, please call the Office of Air and Radiation (OAR) Docket/Telephone number (202) 566-1742.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Amy Platt, EPA Region 8, at (303) 312- 6449, or Platt.Amy@epa.gov. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Throughout this document, wherever ``we'' or ``our'' is used it means the EPA. I. Background The SIP is a living document that the State revises as necessary to address its unique air pollution problems. Therefore, EPA, from time to time must take action on SIP revisions containing new and/or revised regulations to make them part of the SIP. On May 22, 1997 (62 FR 27968), EPA revised the procedures for incorporating by reference Federally-approved SIPs, as a result of consultations between EPA and the Office of the Federal Register (OFR). 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. On March 1, 2007 (72 FR 9263), EPA published a document in the Federal Register beginning the new IBR procedure for North Dakota. Today's action is an update to the March 1, 2007 document. II. EPA Action In this document, EPA is doing the following: (1) Announcing an update to the IBR material for North Dakota's revisions to its SIP as of March 1, 2009, including revisions that were approved by EPA on July 19, 2007 (72 FR 39564) and May 27, 2008 (73 FR 30308); and (2) Revising the entries in paragraphs 52.1820(b), (c), (d), and (e) to reflect this update. III. Good Cause Exemption EPA has determined that today's action falls under the ``good cause'' exemption in section 553(b)(3)(B) of the Administrative Procedure Act (APA) which, upon a finding of ``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. 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'' and ``contrary to the public interest'' since the codification only reflects existing law. Likewise, there is no purpose served by delaying the effective date of this action. Immediate notice in the CFR benefits the public by removing outdated citations and incorrect chart entries. IV. Statutory and Executive Order Review A. General Requirements Under Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993), this action is not a ``significant regulatory action'' and is therefore not subject to review by the Office of Management and Budget. For this reason, this action is also not subject to Executive Order 13211, ``Actions Concerning Regulations That Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use'' (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001). Because the agency has made a ``good cause'' finding that this action is not subject to notice-and-comment requirements under the Administrative Procedure Act or any other statute as indicated in the Supplementary Information section above, it is not subject to the regulatory flexibility provisions of the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.), or to sections 202 and 205 of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (UMRA) (Pub. L. 104-4). In addition, this action does not significantly or uniquely affect small governments or impose a significant intergovernmental mandate, as described in sections 203 and 204 of UMRA. [[Page 18142]] This rule also does not have tribal implications because it will not have a substantial direct effect on one or more Indian tribes, 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 by Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000). This action also does not have Federalism implications because it does 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 the various levels of government, as specified in Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999). This rule also is not subject to Executive Order 13045, ``Protection of Children from Environmental Health Risks and Safety Risks'' (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997), because it is not an economically significant regulatory action based on health or safety risks. This rule does not involve technical standards; thus the requirements of section 12(d) of the National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272 note) do not apply. The rule also does not involve special consideration of environmental justice related issues as required by Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994). This rule does not impose an information collection burden under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.). EPA's compliance with these statutes and Executive Orders for the underlying rules is discussed in previous actions taken on the State's rules. B. 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 the Congress and to the Comptroller General of the United States. Section 808 allows the issuing agency to make a rule effective sooner than otherwise provided by the CRA if the agency makes a good cause finding that notice and public procedure is impracticable, unnecessary or contrary to the public interest. Today's action simply reformats the codification of provisions which are already in effect as a matter of law. 5 U.S.C. 808(2). As stated previously, EPA has made such a good cause finding, including the reasons therefore, and established an effective date of April 21, 2009. 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 update to the Identification of plan for North Dakota is not a ``major rule'' as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2). C. Petitions for Judicial Review 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 action. Prior EPA rulemaking actions for each individual component of the North Dakota SIP compilation 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 to reopen the 60-day period for filing such petitions for judicial review for this reorganization of the ``Identification of plan'' section of 40 CFR 52.1820 for North Dakota.
