III. Statutory and Executive Order Requirements E:\FR\FM\20JYP1.SGM 20JYP1 Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 138 / Wednesday, July 20, 2005 / Proposed Rules I. Background On January 16, 2003 (68 FR 2217), EPA approved numerous changes to the Idaho Department of Environmental Quality (IDEQ) rules as revisions to the Idaho State implementation plan (SIP). In that rulemaking, EPA did not approve the IDEQ rules for toxic air pollutants or TAP’s and specifically excluded the toxic air pollutant provisions (IDAPA 58.01.01.203.03, 210, 223, 585, and 586) from its incorporation by reference. See 40 CFR 52.670(c)(37); 68 FR at 2224 (January 16, 2003); 67 FR 52666, 52668, 52672–73 (August 13, 2002). However, EPA inadvertently incorporated a cross reference to the toxic air pollutant provisions (Sections 585 and 586) within the IDEQ definition of ‘‘regulated air pollutant’’ (IDAPA 58.01.01.006(84)). It was EPA’s intention to exclude all aspects of the IDEQ toxic air pollutant program from the federally-approved SIP. EPA also received a request from the IDEQ to correct the inadvertent incorporation by reference. In an October 20, 2004 letter to EPA, the Administrator of the IDEQ Air Quality Division requested that EPA clarify or correct its approval of the Idaho SIP. II. This Action A. What Correction Is EPA Proposing? EPA made an error by inadvertently including a cross reference to the toxics provisions within the IDEQ definition of ‘‘regulated air toxic’’. EPA is proposing to correct this error by amending the incorporation by reference of the Idaho SIP to exclude paragraph (f) from the definition of ‘‘regulated air pollutant’’ at IDAPA 58.01.01.006(84). B. What Is the Basis for This Action? Under section 110(k)(6) of the Clean Air Act, whenever EPA determines that its action approving, disapproving, or promulgating any plan or plan revision (or part thereof), area designation, redesignation, classification, or reclassification was in error, EPA may in the same manner as the approval, disapproval, or promulgation revise such action as appropriate without requiring any further submission from the state. Such determination and the basis thereof shall be provided to the state and public. Pursuant to section 110(k)(6), EPA is proposing a revision to the Idaho SIP to correct the inadvertent incorporation by reference of the Idaho toxic air pollutant provisions within the definition of ‘‘regulated air pollutant.’’ VerDate jul<14>2003 14:55 Jul 19, 2005 Jkt 205001 C. What Will Be the Effect of This Correction? If EPA finalizes this correction to the incorporation by reference, then IDEQ’s list of toxic air pollutants will not be considered to be ‘‘regulated air pollutants’’ for purposes of the federally-approved SIP. All of the air pollutants regulated under the federal Clean Air Act will still be ‘‘regulated air pollutants’’ for SIP purposes in accordance with the IDEQ definition. The corrected definition meets or exceeds the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act and EPA’s regulations for State implementation plans. The corrected definition is also consistent with IDEQ’s SIP submittal and EPA’s January 16, 2003 approval action which specifically excluded IDEQ’s toxic air pollutant rules from the EPA-approved SIP. III. Statutory and Executive Order Requirements Under Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993), this proposed 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 proposed 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 proposed action merely corrects the incorporation by reference of the list of toxic air pollutants used in regulatory provisions that are not part of the EPA-approved SIP and does not impose any additional requirements on state, local or tribal governments or the private sector. Accordingly, the Administrator certifies that this proposed 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 proposes to approve 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 (Pub. L. 104–4). This proposed 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 PO 00000 Frm 00019 Fmt 4702 Sfmt 4702 41653 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 proposed action merely corrects the incorporation by reference of the list of State toxic air pollutants as initially requested by the State and does not alter the relationship or the distribution of power and responsibilities established in the CAA. 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 proposed 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.). Dated: July 7, 2005.

I. Background

    On January 16, 2003 (68 FR 2217), EPA approved numerous changes to 
the Idaho Department of Environmental Quality (IDEQ) rules as revisions 
to the Idaho State implementation plan (SIP). In that rulemaking, EPA 
did not approve the IDEQ rules for toxic air pollutants or TAP's and 
specifically excluded the toxic air pollutant provisions (IDAPA 
58.01.01.203.03, 210, 223, 585, and 586) from its incorporation by 
reference. See 40 CFR 52.670(c)(37); 68 FR at 2224 (January 16, 2003); 
67 FR 52666, 52668, 52672-73 (August 13, 2002). However, EPA 
inadvertently incorporated a cross reference to the toxic air pollutant 
provisions (Sections 585 and 586) within the IDEQ definition of 
``regulated air pollutant'' (IDAPA 58.01.01.006(84)). It was EPA's 
intention to exclude all aspects of the IDEQ toxic air pollutant 
program from the federally-approved SIP.
    EPA also received a request from the IDEQ to correct the 
inadvertent incorporation by reference. In an October 20, 2004 letter 
to EPA, the Administrator of the IDEQ Air Quality Division requested 
that EPA clarify or correct its approval of the Idaho SIP.

II. This Action

A. What Correction Is EPA Proposing?

    EPA made an error by inadvertently including a cross reference to 
the toxics provisions within the IDEQ definition of ``regulated air 
toxic''. EPA is proposing to correct this error by amending the 
incorporation by reference of the Idaho SIP to exclude paragraph (f) 
from the definition of ``regulated air pollutant'' at IDAPA 
58.01.01.006(84).

B. What Is the Basis for This Action?

    Under section 110(k)(6) of the Clean Air Act, whenever EPA 
determines that its action approving, disapproving, or promulgating any 
plan or plan revision (or part thereof), area designation, 
redesignation, classification, or reclassification was in error, EPA 
may in the same manner as the approval, disapproval, or promulgation 
revise such action as appropriate without requiring any further 
submission from the state. Such determination and the basis thereof 
shall be provided to the state and public. Pursuant to section 
110(k)(6), EPA is proposing a revision to the Idaho SIP to correct the 
inadvertent incorporation by reference of the Idaho toxic air pollutant 
provisions within the definition of ``regulated air pollutant.''

C. What Will Be the Effect of This Correction?

    If EPA finalizes this correction to the incorporation by reference, 
then IDEQ's list of toxic air pollutants will not be considered to be 
``regulated air pollutants'' for purposes of the federally-approved 
SIP. All of the air pollutants regulated under the federal Clean Air 
Act will still be ``regulated air pollutants'' for SIP purposes in 
accordance with the IDEQ definition. The corrected definition meets or 
exceeds the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act and EPA's 
regulations for State implementation plans. The corrected definition is 
also consistent with IDEQ's SIP submittal and EPA's January 16, 2003 
approval action which specifically excluded IDEQ's toxic air pollutant 
rules from the EPA-approved SIP.

III. Statutory and Executive Order Requirements

    Under Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993), this 
proposed 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 proposed 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 proposed action merely corrects the 
incorporation by reference of the list of toxic air pollutants used in 
regulatory provisions that are not part of the EPA-approved SIP and 
does not impose any additional requirements on state, local or tribal 
governments or the private sector. Accordingly, the Administrator 
certifies that this proposed 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 proposes to 
approve 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 (Pub. L. 104-4).
    This proposed 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 proposed 
action merely corrects the incorporation by reference of the list of 
State toxic air pollutants as initially requested by the State and does 
not alter the relationship or the distribution of power and 
responsibilities established in the CAA. 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 proposed 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.).
