Approval and Promulgation of
Implementation Plans; New York; Low
Emission Vehicle Program
Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection
Agency is approving a New York State
State Implementation Plan (SIP)
revision to revise its existing low
emission vehicle (LEV) program. The
State’s revision adopts California’s
second generation low emission vehicle
program for light-duty vehicles (LEV II).
New York has revised its LEV rule to
include a non-methane hydrocarbon
standard and various administrative and
grammatical changes to make its
existing LEV rule identical to
California’s LEV II program. The
intended effect of this rulemaking is to
approve a control strategy which will
result in emissions reductions that will
help achieve attainment of national
ambient air quality standards for ozone.
DATES: Effective Date: This rule will be
effective March 2, 2005.

IV. Administrative Requirements
I. Description of the SIP Revision
In 1994, New York requested EPA to
revise its SIP to include a LEV program.
EPA approved that SIP revision on
January 6, 1995 (60 FR 2022). At the
time, New York’s LEV program was
identical to California’s first-generation
LEV program. More recently, New York
has updated its LEV program to be
identical to California’s LEV II program.
New York has adopted California’s LEV
II program by reference in the New York
State Code of Rules and Regulations part
218, ‘‘Emission Standards for Motor
Vehicles and Motor Vehicle Engines.’’
New York has requested that EPA take
action on its revised LEV program. EPA
has already approved the emissions
reduction credits from the revised LEV
program as part of our approval of New
York’s attainment demonstration SIP
revision on February 4, 2002 (67 FR
5170). In the current SIP revision, New
York requested Federal approval of the
LEV program regulation. EPA’s approval
of New York’s LEV program makes it
Federally-enforceable, further ensuring
that planned emissions reductions will
continue to take place. For further
information on the specifics of New
York’s LEV program see the September
24, 2004 Notice of Proposed Rulemaking
(69 FR 57241).
II. Public Comments on the Proposed
Action
No comments were received on the
Notice of Proposed Rulemaking,
published in the September 24, 2004
Federal Register (69 FR 57241).
III. Final EPA Action
EPA is approving the light-duty
portion of New York’s LEV program,
which is identical to California’s LEV II
program. The LEV program that EPA is
approving is contained in title 6, part
218, subparts 218–1, 218–2, 218–3, 218–
5, 218–6, 218–7 and 218–8 of the
Official Compilation of Codes, Rules
and Regulations of the State of New
York. Approval of New York’s LEV
program further ensures that planned
emissions reductions attributable to this
program will be achieved. These
reductions are necessary for New York
to achieve its clean air goals, as detailed
in the State’s 1-hour ozone attainment
demonstration SIP. The updated
program was filed on November 28,
2000 and adopted on December 28,
2000, as noticed in the New York State
Register.

IV. Administrative Requirements
Under Executive Order 12866 (58 FR
51735, October 4, 1993), this action is
not a ‘‘significant regulatory action’’ and
therefore is 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). This action merely approves
state law as meeting Federal
requirements and imposes no additional
requirements beyond those imposed by
state law. Accordingly, the
Administrator certifies that this rule
will not have a significant economic
impact on a substantial number of small
entities under the Regulatory Flexibility
Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.). Because this
rule approves pre-existing requirements
under 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 of 1995
(Public Law 104–4).
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 action merely
approves a state rule implementing a
Federal standard, and does not alter the
relationship or the distribution of power
and responsibilities established in the
Clean Air Act. 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 economically
significant.
In reviewing SIP submissions, EPA’s
role is to approve state choices,
provided that they meet the criteria of
the Clean Air Act. In this context, in the
absence of a prior existing requirement
for the State to use voluntary consensus
standards (VCS), EPA has no authority
PO 00000
Frm 00032
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
to disapprove a SIP submission for
failure to use VCS. It would thus be
inconsistent with applicable law for
EPA, when it reviews a SIP submission,
to use VCS in place of a SIP submission
that otherwise satisfies the provisions of
the Clean Air Act. 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. This rule does
not impose an information collection
burden under the provisions of the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44
U.S.C. 3501 et seq.).
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. 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. 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 April 1, 2005.
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 its requirements. (See section
307(b)(2).)

IV. Administrative Requirements
I. Description of the SIP Revision
In 1994, New York requested EPA to revise its SIP to include a LEV
program. EPA approved that SIP revision on January 6, 1995 (60 FR
2022). At the time, New York's LEV program was identical to
California's first-generation LEV program. More recently, New York has
updated its LEV program to be identical to California's LEV II program.
New York has adopted California's LEV II program by reference in the
New York State Code of Rules and Regulations part 218, ``Emission
Standards for Motor Vehicles and Motor Vehicle Engines.''
New York has requested that EPA take action on its revised LEV
program. EPA has already approved the emissions reduction credits from
the revised LEV program as part of our approval of New York's
attainment demonstration SIP revision on February 4, 2002 (67 FR 5170).
In the current SIP revision, New York requested Federal approval of the
LEV program regulation. EPA's approval of New York's LEV program makes
it Federally-enforceable, further ensuring that planned emissions
reductions will continue to take place. For further information on the
specifics of New York's LEV program see the September 24, 2004 Notice
of Proposed Rulemaking (69 FR 57241).
II. Public Comments on the Proposed Action
No comments were received on the Notice of Proposed Rulemaking,
published in the September 24, 2004 Federal Register (69 FR 57241).
III. Final EPA Action
EPA is approving the light-duty portion of New York's LEV program,
which is identical to California's LEV II program. The LEV program that
EPA is approving is contained in title 6, part 218, subparts 218-1,
218-2, 218-3, 218-5, 218-6, 218-7 and 218-8 of the Official Compilation
of Codes, Rules and Regulations of the State of New York. Approval of
New York's LEV program further ensures that planned emissions
reductions attributable to this program will be achieved. These
reductions are necessary for New York to achieve its clean air goals,
as detailed in the State's 1-hour ozone attainment demonstration SIP.
The updated program was filed on November 28, 2000 and adopted on
December 28, 2000, as noticed in the New York State Register.
IV. Administrative Requirements
Under Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993), this
action is not a ``significant regulatory action'' and therefore is 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). This action
merely approves state law as meeting Federal requirements and imposes
no additional requirements beyond those imposed by state law.
Accordingly, the Administrator certifies that this rule will not have a
significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities
under the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.). Because
this rule approves pre-existing requirements under 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 of 1995 (Public Law 104-4).
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 action merely approves a state rule
implementing a Federal standard, and does not alter the relationship or
the distribution of power and responsibilities established in the Clean
Air Act. 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 economically
significant.
In reviewing SIP submissions, EPA's role is to approve state
choices, provided that they meet the criteria of the Clean Air Act. In
this context, in the absence of a prior existing requirement for the
State to use voluntary consensus standards (VCS), EPA has no authority
to disapprove a SIP submission for failure to use VCS. It would thus be
inconsistent with applicable law for EPA, when it reviews a SIP
submission, to use VCS in place of a SIP submission that otherwise
satisfies the provisions of the Clean Air Act. 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. This rule does not
impose an information collection burden under the provisions of the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.).
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. 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. 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 April 1, 2005. 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 its requirements. (See section 307(b)(2).)
