SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On March
3, 2009 we solicited public comment on
a proposal to update a portion of the
Outer Continental Shelf (‘‘OCS’’) Air
Regulations. Requirements applying to
OCS sources located within 25 miles of
States’ seaward boundaries must be
updated periodically to remain
consistent with the requirements of the
corresponding onshore area (‘‘COA’’), as
mandated by section 328(a)(1) of the
Clean Air Act (‘‘the Act’’). The portion
of the OCS air regulations that is being
updated pertains to the requirements for
OCS sources in the State of Alaska. The
intended effect of approving the OCS
requirements for the State of Alaska is
to regulate emissions from OCS sources
in accordance with the requirements

onshore. The change to the existing
requirements discussed below is
proposed to be incorporated by
reference into the Code of Federal
Regulations and is listed in the
appendix to the OCS air regulations. See
74 FR 9180. In the proposal, we stated
that EPA would accept public
comments on the proposal until April 2,
2009.
During the public comment period
that ended on April 2, 2009, the North
Slope Borough asked for an extension of
the public comment period. In light of
the North Slope Borough’s interest in
this proposal, we are extending the
public comment period to May 13, 2009,
to provide additional time for interested
parties to submit written comments. All
written comments received by May 13,
2009, will be considered in our final
action.

IV. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
I. Background and Purpose
On September 4, 1992, EPA
promulgated 40 CFR part 55,1 which
established requirements to control air
pollution from OCS sources, in order to
attain and maintain Federal and State
ambient air quality standards and to
comply with the provisions of part C of
title I of the CAA. Part 55 applies to all
OCS sources offshore of the States,
except those located in the Gulf of
Mexico west of 87.5 degrees longitude.
Section 328 of the CAA requires that for
such sources located within 25 miles of
a State’s seaward boundary, the
requirements shall be the same as would
be applicable if the sources were located
in the COA. Because the OCS
regulations are based on those onshore
regulations, and onshore requirements
may from time-to-time change, section
328(a)(1) requires that EPA update the
OCS requirements as necessary to
1 The Notice of Proposed Rulemaking, December
5, 1991 (56 FR 63774), and the preamble to the final
rule promulgated September 4, 1992 (57 FR 40792)
provide further background and information on the
OCS regulations.

maintain consistency with onshore
regulations.
Pursuant to 40 CFR 55.12(b), where an
OCS activity is occurring within 25
miles of a State seaward boundary,
consistency reviews will occur: (1) At
least annually; (2) upon receipt of a
Notice of Intent under § 55.4; or (3)
when a State or local agency submits a
rule to EPA to be considered for
incorporation by reference in part 55.
This proposed action is being taken to
update 40 CFR part 55 as necessary to
maintain consistency with the
regulations of Delaware, in order to
attain and maintain Federal and State
ambient standards and comply with part
C of title I of the CAA. 40 CFR 55.12(a).
Public comments received in writing
within 30 days of publication of this
document will be considered by EPA
before publishing a final rule.
Section 328(a) of the CAA requires
that EPA establish requirements to
control air pollution from OCS sources
located within 25 miles of a State’s
seaward boundary that are the same as
would be applicable if the source were
located in the corresponding onshore
area. To comply with this statutory
mandate, EPA must incorporate
applicable onshore rules into part 55 as
they exist onshore and as they relate to
protection of ambient standards. This
prevents EPA from making substantive
changes to the requirements it
incorporates. As a result, EPA may be
incorporating rules into part 55 that do
not conform to all of EPA’s State
implementation plan (SIP) guidance or
certain requirements of the CAA.
Inclusion in the OCS rule does not
imply that a rule meets the requirements
of the CAA for SIP approval, nor does
it imply that the rule will be approved
by EPA for inclusion in the SIP.
II. EPA’s Evaluation
In the process of revising or updating
40 CFR part 55, EPA first conducted a
review of Delaware’s rules for inclusion
into part 55 to ensure that those State
rules: (1) Are rationally related to the
attainment or maintenance of Federal or
State ambient air quality standards or
part C of title I of the CAA; (2) are not
designed or used for the purpose of
preventing exploration and
development of the OCS; and (3) are
applicable to OCS sources. 40 CFR 55.1.
EPA has also evaluated the rules to
ensure they are not arbitrary or
capricious. 40 CFR 55.12(e). In addition,
EPA has excluded administrative or
procedural rules,2 and requirements that

authority to implement and enforce part 55, will

Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 81 / Wednesday, April 29, 2009 / Proposed Rules
regulate toxics which are not rationally
related to the attainment and
maintenance of Federal and State
ambient air quality standards. EPA is
soliciting public comments on the
issues discussed in this document or on
other relevant matters. These comments
will be considered before taking final
action. Interested parties may
participate in the Federal rulemaking
procedure by submitting written
comments to the EPA Region III Office
listed in the ADDRESSES section of this
Federal Register.
III. Proposed Action
EPA is proposing to incorporate the
rules applicable to sources for which the
State of Delaware will be the COA. The
rules that EPA proposes to incorporate
are applicable provisions of Title 7 of
the Delaware Administrative Code,
specifically, Air Quality Management
Section 1100. The rules EPA proposes to
incorporate are listed in detail at the
end of the document.
IV. Statutory and Executive Order
Reviews
tjames on PRODPC75 with PROPOSALS
A. Executive Order 12866: Regulatory
Planning and Review
Under Executive Order 12866 (58 FR
51735 (October 4, 1993)), the Agency
must determine whether the regulatory
action is ‘‘significant’’ and therefore
subject to Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) review and the
requirements of the Executive Order.
The Order defines ‘‘significant
regulatory action’’ as one that is likely
to result in a rule that may:
(1) Have an annual effect on the
economy of $100 million or more or
adversely affect in a material way the
economy, a sector of the economy,
productivity, competition, jobs, the
environment, public health or safety, or
State, local, or tribal governments or
communities;
(2) Create a serious inconsistency or
otherwise interfere with an action taken
or planned by another agency;
(3) Materially alter the budgetary
impact of entitlements, grants, user fees,
or loan programs or the rights and
obligations of recipients thereof; or
(4) Raise novel legal or policy issues
arising out of legal mandates, the
President’s priorities, or the principles
set forth in the Executive Order.
This action is not a ‘‘significant
regulatory action’’ under the terms of
use its administrative and procedural rules as
onshore. However, in those instances where EPA
has not delegated authority to implement and
enforce part 55, as in Delaware, EPA will use its
own administrative and procedural requirements to
implement the substantive requirements. See 40
CFR 55.14(c)(4).
VerDate Nov<24>2008

Jkt 217001
Executive Order 12866 and is therefore
not subject to OMB Review. These rules
implement requirements specifically
and explicitly set forth by the Congress
in section 328 of the Clean Air Act,
without the exercise of any policy
discretion by EPA. These OCS rules
already apply in the COA, and EPA has
no evidence to suggest that these OCS
rules have created an adverse material
effect. As required by section 328 of the
Clean Air Act, this action simply
updates the existing OCS requirements
to make them consistent with rules in
the COA.
B. Paperwork Reduction Act
The OMB has approved the
information collection requirements
contained in 40 CFR part 55, and by
extension this update to the rules, under
the provisions of the Paperwork
Reduction Act, 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.
and has assigned OMB control number
2060–0249. Notice of OMB’s approval of
EPA Information Collection Request
(ICR) No. 1601.07 was published in the
Federal Register on February 17, 2009
(74 FR 7432). The approval expires
January 31, 2012. As EPA previously
indicated (73 FR 66037 (November 6,
2008)), the annual public reporting and
recordkeeping burden for collection of
information under 40 CFR part 55 is
estimated to average 112 hours per
response. Burden means the total time,
effort, or financial resources expended
by persons to generate, maintain, retain,
or disclose or provide information to or
for a Federal agency. This includes the
time needed to review instructions;
develop, acquire, install, and utilize
technology and systems for the purposes
of collecting, validating, and verifying
information, processing and
maintaining information, and disclosing
and providing information; adjust the
existing ways to comply with any
previously applicable instructions and
requirements; train personnel to be able
to respond to a collection of
information; search data sources;
complete and review the collection of
information; and transmit or otherwise
disclose the information.
An agency may not conduct or
sponsor, and a person is not required to
respond to, a collection of information
unless it displays a currently valid OMB
control number. The OMB control
numbers for EPA’s regulations in 40
CFR are listed in 40 CFR part 9 and are
identified on the form and/or
instrument, if applicable. In addition,
EPA is amending the table in 40 CFR
part 9 of currently approved OMB
control numbers for various regulations
to list the regulatory citations for the
PO 00000
Frm 00015
Fmt 4702
Sfmt 4702
information requirements contained in
this final rule.
C. Regulatory Flexibility Act
The Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA)
generally requires an agency to conduct
a regulatory flexibility analysis of any
rule subject to notice and comment
rulemaking requirements unless the
agency certifies that the rule will not
have a significant economic impact on
a substantial number of small entities.
Small entities include small businesses,
small not-for-profit enterprises, and
small governmental jurisdictions.
These rules will not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial
number of small entities. These rules
implement requirements specifically
and explicitly set forth by the Congress
in section 328 of the Clean Air Act,
without the exercise of any policy
discretion by EPA. These OCS rules
already apply in the COA, and EPA has
no evidence to suggest that these OCS
rules have had a significant economic
impact on a substantial number of small
entities. As required by section 328 of
the Clean Air Act, this action simply
updates the existing OCS requirements
to make them consistent with rules in
the COA. Therefore, this action will not
have a significant economic impact on
a substantial number of small entities.
D. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act
Title II of the Unfunded Mandates
Reform Act of 1995 (UMRA), Public
Law 104–4, establishes requirements for
Federal agencies to assess the effects of
their regulatory actions on State, local,
and tribal governments and the private
sector. Under section 202 of the UMRA,
EPA generally must prepare a written
statement, including a cost-benefit
analysis, for proposed and final rules
with ‘‘Federal mandates’’ that may
result in expenditures to State, local,
and tribal governments, in the aggregate,
or to the private sector, of $100 million
of more in any one year.
Before promulgating an EPA rule for
which a written statement is needed,
section 205 of the UMRA generally
requires EPA to identify and consider a
reasonable number of regulatory
alternatives and adopt the least costly,
most cost-effective or least burdensome
alternative that achieves the objectives
of the rule. The provisions of section
205 do not apply when they are
inconsistent with applicable law.
Moreover, section 205 allows EPA to
adopt an alternative other than the least
costly, most cost-effective or least
burdensome alternative if the
Administrator publishes with the final
rule an explanation why that alternative
was not adopted.
E:\FR\FM\29APP1.SGM
29APP1
Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 81 / Wednesday, April 29, 2009 / Proposed Rules
tjames on PRODPC75 with PROPOSALS
Before EPA establishes any regulatory
requirements that may significantly or
uniquely affect small governments,
including tribal governments, it must
have developed under section 203 of the
UMRA a small government agency plan.
The plan must provide for notifying
potentially affected small governments,
enabling officials of affected small
governments to have meaningful and
timely input in the development of EPA
regulatory proposals with significant
Federal intergovernmental mandates,
and informing, educating, and advising
small governments on compliance with
the regulatory requirements.
This document contains no Federal
mandates (under the regulatory
provisions of Title II of the UMRA) for
State, local, or tribal governments or the
private sector that may result in
expenditures of $100 million or more
for State, local, or tribal governments, in
the aggregate, or to the private sector in
any one year. This action would
implement requirements specifically
and explicitly set forth by the Congress
in section 328 of the Clean Air Act
without the exercise of any policy
discretion by EPA. The OCS rules
already apply in the COA, and EPA has
no evidence to suggest that applying
them in the OCS would result in
expenditures to State, local, and tribal
governments, in the aggregate, or to the
private sector, of $100 million or more
in any one year. As required by section
328 of the Clean Air Act, this action
simply updates the existing OCS
requirements to make them consistent
with rules in the COA.
E. Executive Order 13132, Federalism
Executive Order 13132, entitled
‘‘Federalism’’ (64 FR 43255 (August 10,
1999)), requires EPA to develop an
accountable process to ensure
‘‘meaningful and timely input by State
and local officials in the development of
regulatory policies that have federalism
implications.’’ ‘‘Policies that have
federalism implications’’ is defined in
the Executive Order to include
regulations that 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.’’
This proposed rule does 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 the various
levels of government, as specified in
Executive Order 13132. These rules
implement requirements specifically
VerDate Nov<24>2008
15:12 Apr 28, 2009
Jkt 217001
and explicitly set forth by the Congress
in section 328 of the Clean Air Act,
without the exercise of any policy
discretion by EPA. As required by
section 328 of the Clean Air Act, this
rule simply updates the existing OCS
rules to make them consistent with
current COA requirements. These rules
do not amend the existing provisions
within 40 CFR part 55 enabling
delegation of OCS regulations to a COA,
and this rule does not require the COA
to implement the OCS rules. Thus,
Executive Order 13132 does not apply
to this rule.
In the spirit of Executive Order 13132,
and consistent with EPA policy to
promote communications between EPA
and State and local governments, EPA
specifically solicits comments on this
proposed rule from State and local
officials.
F. Executive Order 13175, Coordination
With Indian Tribal Governments
Executive Order 13175, entitled
‘‘Consultation and Coordination with
Indian Tribal Governments’’ (65 FR
67249, November 9, 2000), requires EPA
to develop an accountable process to
ensure ‘‘meaningful and timely input by
tribal officials in the development of
regulatory policies that have tribal
implications.’’ This rule does 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
and thus does not have ‘‘tribal
implications,’’ within the meaning of
Executive Order 13175. This rule
implements requirements specifically
and explicitly set forth by the Congress
in section 328 of the Clean Air Act,
without the exercise of any policy
discretion by EPA. As required by
section 328 of the Clean Air Act, this
rule simply updates the existing OCS
rules to make them consistent with
current COA requirements. In addition,
this rule does not impose substantial
direct compliance costs tribal
governments, nor preempt tribal law.
Consultation with Indian tribes is
therefore not required under Executive
Order 13175. Nonetheless, in the spirit
of Executive Order 13175 and consistent
with EPA policy to promote
communications between EPA and
tribes, EPA specifically solicits
comments on this proposed rule from
tribal officials.

G. Executive Order 13045, Protection of
Children From Environmental Health
Risks and Safety Risks
Executive Order 13045: ‘‘Protection of
Children from Environmental Health
Risks and Safety Risks’’ (62 FR 19885
(April 23, 1997)), applies to any rule
that: (1) is determined to be
‘‘economically significant’’ as defined
under Executive Order 12866, and (2)
concerns an environmental health or
safety risk that EPA has reason to
believe may have a disproportionate
effect on children. If the regulatory
action meets both criteria, the Agency
must evaluate the environmental health
or safety effects of the planned rule on
children, and explain why the planned
regulation is preferable to other
potentially effective and reasonably
feasible alternatives considered by the
Agency.
This proposed rule is not subject to
Executive Order 13045 because it is not
economically significant as defined in
Executive Order 12866. In addition, the
Agency does not have reason to believe
the environmental health or safety risks
addressed by this action present a
disproportional risk to children.
H. Executive Order 13211, Actions That
Significantly Affect Energy Supply,
Distribution, or Use
This proposed rule is not subject to
Executive Order 13211, ‘‘Actions
Concerning Regulations That
Significantly Affect Energy Supply,
Distribution, or Use’’ (66 FR 28355,
(May 22, 2001)) because it is not a
significant regulatory action under
Executive Order 12866.
I. National Technology Transfer and
Advancement Act
Section 12(d) of the National
Technology Transfer and Advancement
Act of 1995 (NTTAA), Public Law 104–
113, section 12(d) (15 U.S.C. 272 note)
directs EPA to use voluntary consensus
standards in its regulatory activities
unless to do so would be inconsistent
with applicable laws or otherwise
impractical. Voluntary consensus
standards are technical standards (e.g.,
materials specifications, test methods,
sampling procedures, and business
practices) that are developed or adopted
by voluntary consensus standards
bodies. The NTTAA directs EPA to
provide Congress, through OMB,
explanations when the Agency decided
not to use available and applicable
voluntary consensus standards.
As discussed above, these rules
implement requirements specifically
and explicitly set forth by the Congress
in section 328 of the Clean Air Act,

without the exercise of any policy
discretion by EPA. As required by
section 328 of the Clean Air Act, this
rule simply updates the existing OCS
rules to make them consistent with
current COA requirements. In the
absence of a prior existing requirement
for the State to use voluntary consensus
standards and in light of the fact that
EPA is required to make the OCS rules
consistent with current COA
requirements, it would be inconsistent
with applicable law for EPA to use
voluntary consensus standards in this
action. Therefore, EPA is not
considering the use of any voluntary
consensus standards. EPA welcomes
comments on this aspect of the
proposed rulemaking and, specifically,
invites the public to identify
potentially-applicable voluntary
consensus standards and to explain why
such standards should be used in this
regulation.
J. Executive Order 12898: Federal
Actions to Address Environmental
Justice in Minority Populations and
Low-Income Populations.
Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629
(Feb. 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
lacks the discretionary authority to
address environmental justice in this
proposed action. This rule implements
requirements specifically and explicitly
set forth by the Congress in section 328
of the Clean Air Act, without the
exercise of any policy discretion by
EPA. As required by section 328 of the
Clean Air Act, this rule simply updates
the existing OCS rules to make them
consistent with current COA
requirements.
Although EPA lacks authority to
modify today’s regulatory decision on
the basis of environmental justice
considerations, EPA nevertheless
explored this issue and found the
following. This action, namely,
updating the OCS rules to make them
consistent with current COA
requirements, will not have
disproportionately high and adverse
human health or environmental effects
on minority or low-income populations
because it increases the level of
environmental protection for all affected

populations without having any
disproportionately high and adverse
human health or environmental effects
on any population, including any
minority or low-income population.
Environmental justice considerations
may be appropriate to consider in the
context of a specific OCS permit
application.

VerDate Nov<24>2008
15:12 Apr 28, 2009
Jkt 217001
to its hazardous waste program under
the Resource Conservation and
Recovery Act (RCRA). EPA proposes to
grant final authorization to
Pennsylvania. In the ‘‘Rules and
Regulations’’ section of this Federal
Register, EPA is authorizing the
revisions by an immediate final rule.
EPA did not make a proposal prior to
the immediate final rule because we
believe this action is not controversial
and do not expect comments that
oppose it. We have explained the
reasons for this authorization in the
preamble to the immediate final rule.
Unless we receive written comments
that oppose this authorization during
the comment period, the immediate
final rule will become effective on the
date it establishes, and we will not take
further action on this proposal.
However, if we receive comments that
oppose this action we will withdraw the
immediate final rule and it will not take
effect. We will then respond to public
comments in a later final rule based on
this proposal. You may not have another
opportunity for comment. If you want to
comment on this action, you must do so
at this time.

Outer Continental Shelf Air Regulations Consistency Update for
Delaware
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule-consistency update.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to update a portion of the Outer Continental
Shelf (OCS) Air Regulations. Requirements applying to OCS sources
located within 25 miles of a State's seaward boundary must be updated
periodically to maintain continuity and ensure consistency with the
regulations of the corresponding onshore area (COA), as mandated by
section 328(a)(1) of the Clean Air Act (CAA). The specific portion of
the regulations that are being updated pertains to the requirements for
[[Page 19473]]
OCS sources in the State of Delaware (Delaware). The intended effect of
approving the OCS regulations for Delaware is to regulate air emissions
from OCS sources in accordance with the requirements onshore. The
change to the existing requirements discussed below is proposed to be
incorporated by reference into the Code of Federal Regulations and is
listed in the appendix to the OCS air regulations.
DATES: Written comments must be received on or before May 29, 2009.
ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, identified by Docket ID Number EPA-
R03-OAR-2009-0238 by one of the following methods:

Table of Contents
I. Background and Purpose
II. EPA's Evaluation
III. Proposed Action
IV. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
I. Background and Purpose
On September 4, 1992, EPA promulgated 40 CFR part 55,\1\ which
established requirements to control air pollution from OCS sources, in
order to attain and maintain Federal and State ambient air quality
standards and to comply with the provisions of part C of title I of the
CAA. Part 55 applies to all OCS sources offshore of the States, except
those located in the Gulf of Mexico west of 87.5 degrees longitude.
Section 328 of the CAA requires that for such sources located within 25
miles of a State's seaward boundary, the requirements shall be the same
as would be applicable if the sources were located in the COA. Because
the OCS regulations are based on those onshore regulations, and onshore
requirements may from time-to-time change, section 328(a)(1) requires
that EPA update the OCS requirements as necessary to maintain
consistency with onshore regulations.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ The Notice of Proposed Rulemaking, December 5, 1991 (56 FR
63774), and the preamble to the final rule promulgated September 4,
1992 (57 FR 40792) provide further background and information on the
OCS regulations.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pursuant to 40 CFR 55.12(b), where an OCS activity is occurring
within 25 miles of a State seaward boundary, consistency reviews will
occur: (1) At least annually; (2) upon receipt of a Notice of Intent
under Sec. 55.4; or (3) when a State or local agency submits a rule to
EPA to be considered for incorporation by reference in part 55. This
proposed action is being taken to update 40 CFR part 55 as necessary to
maintain consistency with the regulations of Delaware, in order to
attain and maintain Federal and State ambient standards and comply with
part C of title I of the CAA. 40 CFR 55.12(a). Public comments received
in writing within 30 days of publication of this document will be
considered by EPA before publishing a final rule.
Section 328(a) of the CAA requires that EPA establish requirements
to control air pollution from OCS sources located within 25 miles of a
State's seaward boundary that are the same as would be applicable if
the source were located in the corresponding onshore area. To comply
with this statutory mandate, EPA must incorporate applicable onshore
rules into part 55 as they exist onshore and as they relate to
protection of ambient standards. This prevents EPA from making
substantive changes to the requirements it incorporates. As a result,
EPA may be incorporating rules into part 55 that do not conform to all
of EPA's State implementation plan (SIP) guidance or certain
requirements of the CAA. Inclusion in the OCS rule does not imply that
a rule meets the requirements of the CAA for SIP approval, nor does it
imply that the rule will be approved by EPA for inclusion in the SIP.
II. EPA's Evaluation
In the process of revising or updating 40 CFR part 55, EPA first
conducted a review of Delaware's rules for inclusion into part 55 to
ensure that those State rules: (1) Are rationally related to the
attainment or maintenance of Federal or State ambient air quality
standards or part C of title I of the CAA; (2) are not designed or used
for the purpose of preventing exploration and development of the OCS;
and (3) are applicable to OCS sources. 40 CFR 55.1. EPA has also
evaluated the rules to ensure they are not arbitrary or capricious. 40
CFR 55.12(e). In addition, EPA has excluded administrative or
procedural rules,\2\ and requirements that
[[Page 19474]]
regulate toxics which are not rationally related to the attainment and
maintenance of Federal and State ambient air quality standards. EPA is
soliciting public comments on the issues discussed in this document or
on other relevant matters. These comments will be considered before
taking final action. Interested parties may participate in the Federal
rulemaking procedure by submitting written comments to the EPA Region
III Office listed in the ADDRESSES section of this Federal Register.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\2\ Each COA which has been delegated the authority to implement
and enforce part 55, will use its administrative and procedural
rules as onshore. However, in those instances where EPA has not
delegated authority to implement and enforce part 55, as in
Delaware, EPA will use its own administrative and procedural
requirements to implement the substantive requirements. See 40 CFR
55.14(c)(4).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
III. Proposed Action
EPA is proposing to incorporate the rules applicable to sources for
which the State of Delaware will be the COA. The rules that EPA
proposes to incorporate are applicable provisions of Title 7 of the
Delaware Administrative Code, specifically, Air Quality Management
Section 1100. The rules EPA proposes to incorporate are listed in
detail at the end of the document.
IV. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
A. Executive Order 12866: Regulatory Planning and Review
Under Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 51735 (October 4, 1993)), the
Agency must determine whether the regulatory action is ``significant''
and therefore subject to Office of Management and Budget (OMB) review
and the requirements of the Executive Order. The Order defines
``significant regulatory action'' as one that is likely to result in a
rule that may:
(1) Have an annual effect on the economy of $100 million or more or
adversely affect in a material way the economy, a sector of the
economy, productivity, competition, jobs, the environment, public
health or safety, or State, local, or tribal governments or
communities;
(2) Create a serious inconsistency or otherwise interfere with an
action taken or planned by another agency;
(3) Materially alter the budgetary impact of entitlements, grants,
user fees, or loan programs or the rights and obligations of recipients
thereof; or
(4) Raise novel legal or policy issues arising out of legal
mandates, the President's priorities, or the principles set forth in
the Executive Order.
This action is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under the
terms of Executive Order 12866 and is therefore not subject to OMB
Review. These rules implement requirements specifically and explicitly
set forth by the Congress in section 328 of the Clean Air Act, without
the exercise of any policy discretion by EPA. These OCS rules already
apply in the COA, and EPA has no evidence to suggest that these OCS
rules have created an adverse material effect. As required by section
328 of the Clean Air Act, this action simply updates the existing OCS
requirements to make them consistent with rules in the COA.
B. Paperwork Reduction Act
The OMB has approved the information collection requirements
contained in 40 CFR part 55, and by extension this update to the rules,
under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act, 44 U.S.C. 3501 et
seq. and has assigned OMB control number 2060-0249. Notice of OMB's
approval of EPA Information Collection Request (ICR) No. 1601.07 was
published in the Federal Register on February 17, 2009 (74 FR 7432).
The approval expires January 31, 2012. As EPA previously indicated (73
FR 66037 (November 6, 2008)), the annual public reporting and
recordkeeping burden for collection of information under 40 CFR part 55
is estimated to average 112 hours per response. Burden means the total
time, effort, or financial resources expended by persons to generate,
maintain, retain, or disclose or provide information to or for a
Federal agency. This includes the time needed to review instructions;
develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and systems for the
purposes of collecting, validating, and verifying information,
processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and providing
information; adjust the existing ways to comply with any previously
applicable instructions and requirements; train personnel to be able to
respond to a collection of information; search data sources; complete
and review the collection of information; and transmit or otherwise
disclose the information.
An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required
to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a
currently valid OMB control number. The OMB control numbers for EPA's
regulations in 40 CFR are listed in 40 CFR part 9 and are identified on
the form and/or instrument, if applicable. In addition, EPA is amending
the table in 40 CFR part 9 of currently approved OMB control numbers
for various regulations to list the regulatory citations for the
information requirements contained in this final rule.
C. Regulatory Flexibility Act
The Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA) generally requires an agency
to conduct a regulatory flexibility analysis of any rule subject to
notice and comment rulemaking requirements unless the agency certifies
that the rule will not have a significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities. Small entities include small
businesses, small not-for-profit enterprises, and small governmental
jurisdictions.
These rules will not have a significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities. These rules implement
requirements specifically and explicitly set forth by the Congress in
section 328 of the Clean Air Act, without the exercise of any policy
discretion by EPA. These OCS rules already apply in the COA, and EPA
has no evidence to suggest that these OCS rules have had a significant
economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. As required
by section 328 of the Clean Air Act, this action simply updates the
existing OCS requirements to make them consistent with rules in the
COA. Therefore, this action will not have a significant economic impact
on a substantial number of small entities.
D. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act
Title II of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (UMRA), Public
Law 104-4, establishes requirements for Federal agencies to assess the
effects of their regulatory actions on State, local, and tribal
governments and the private sector. Under section 202 of the UMRA, EPA
generally must prepare a written statement, including a cost-benefit
analysis, for proposed and final rules with ``Federal mandates'' that
may result in expenditures to State, local, and tribal governments, in
the aggregate, or to the private sector, of $100 million of more in any
one year.
Before promulgating an EPA rule for which a written statement is
needed, section 205 of the UMRA generally requires EPA to identify and
consider a reasonable number of regulatory alternatives and adopt the
least costly, most cost-effective or least burdensome alternative that
achieves the objectives of the rule. The provisions of section 205 do
not apply when they are inconsistent with applicable law. Moreover,
section 205 allows EPA to adopt an alternative other than the least
costly, most cost-effective or least burdensome alternative if the
Administrator publishes with the final rule an explanation why that
alternative was not adopted.
[[Page 19475]]
Before EPA establishes any regulatory requirements that may
significantly or uniquely affect small governments, including tribal
governments, it must have developed under section 203 of the UMRA a
small government agency plan. The plan must provide for notifying
potentially affected small governments, enabling officials of affected
small governments to have meaningful and timely input in the
development of EPA regulatory proposals with significant Federal
intergovernmental mandates, and informing, educating, and advising
small governments on compliance with the regulatory requirements.
This document contains no Federal mandates (under the regulatory
provisions of Title II of the UMRA) for State, local, or tribal
governments or the private sector that may result in expenditures of
$100 million or more for State, local, or tribal governments, in the
aggregate, or to the private sector in any one year. This action would
implement requirements specifically and explicitly set forth by the
Congress in section 328 of the Clean Air Act without the exercise of
any policy discretion by EPA. The OCS rules already apply in the COA,
and EPA has no evidence to suggest that applying them in the OCS would
result in expenditures to State, local, and tribal governments, in the
aggregate, or to the private sector, of $100 million or more in any one
year. As required by section 328 of the Clean Air Act, this action
simply updates the existing OCS requirements to make them consistent
with rules in the COA.
E. Executive Order 13132, Federalism
Executive Order 13132, entitled ``Federalism'' (64 FR 43255 (August
10, 1999)), requires EPA to develop an accountable process to ensure
``meaningful and timely input by State and local officials in the
development of regulatory policies that have federalism implications.''
``Policies that have federalism implications'' is defined in the
Executive Order to include regulations that 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.''
This proposed rule does 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 the various levels of government,
as specified in Executive Order 13132. These rules implement
requirements specifically and explicitly set forth by the Congress in
section 328 of the Clean Air Act, without the exercise of any policy
discretion by EPA. As required by section 328 of the Clean Air Act,
this rule simply updates the existing OCS rules to make them consistent
with current COA requirements. These rules do not amend the existing
provisions within 40 CFR part 55 enabling delegation of OCS regulations
to a COA, and this rule does not require the COA to implement the OCS
rules. Thus, Executive Order 13132 does not apply to this rule.
In the spirit of Executive Order 13132, and consistent with EPA
policy to promote communications between EPA and State and local
governments, EPA specifically solicits comments on this proposed rule
from State and local officials.
F. Executive Order 13175, Coordination With Indian Tribal Governments
Executive Order 13175, entitled ``Consultation and Coordination
with Indian Tribal Governments'' (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000),
requires EPA to develop an accountable process to ensure ``meaningful
and timely input by tribal officials in the development of regulatory
policies that have tribal implications.'' This rule does 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 and thus does not have ``tribal
implications,'' within the meaning of Executive Order 13175. This rule
implements requirements specifically and explicitly set forth by the
Congress in section 328 of the Clean Air Act, without the exercise of
any policy discretion by EPA. As required by section 328 of the Clean
Air Act, this rule simply updates the existing OCS rules to make them
consistent with current COA requirements. In addition, this rule does
not impose substantial direct compliance costs tribal governments, nor
preempt tribal law. Consultation with Indian tribes is therefore not
required under Executive Order 13175. Nonetheless, in the spirit of
Executive Order 13175 and consistent with EPA policy to promote
communications between EPA and tribes, EPA specifically solicits
comments on this proposed rule from tribal officials.
G. Executive Order 13045, Protection of Children From Environmental
Health Risks and Safety Risks
Executive Order 13045: ``Protection of Children from Environmental
Health Risks and Safety Risks'' (62 FR 19885 (April 23, 1997)), applies
to any rule that: (1) is determined to be ``economically significant''
as defined under Executive Order 12866, and (2) concerns an
environmental health or safety risk that EPA has reason to believe may
have a disproportionate effect on children. If the regulatory action
meets both criteria, the Agency must evaluate the environmental health
or safety effects of the planned rule on children, and explain why the
planned regulation is preferable to other potentially effective and
reasonably feasible alternatives considered by the Agency.
This proposed rule is not subject to Executive Order 13045 because
it is not economically significant as defined in Executive Order 12866.
In addition, the Agency does not have reason to believe the
environmental health or safety risks addressed by this action present a
disproportional risk to children.
H. Executive Order 13211, Actions That Significantly Affect Energy
Supply, Distribution, or Use
This proposed rule is not subject to Executive Order 13211,
``Actions Concerning Regulations That Significantly Affect Energy
Supply, Distribution, or Use'' (66 FR 28355, (May 22, 2001)) because it
is not a significant regulatory action under Executive Order 12866.
I. National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act
Section 12(d) of the National Technology Transfer and Advancement
Act of 1995 (NTTAA), Public Law 104-113, section 12(d) (15 U.S.C. 272
note) directs EPA to use voluntary consensus standards in its
regulatory activities unless to do so would be inconsistent with
applicable laws or otherwise impractical. Voluntary consensus standards
are technical standards (e.g., materials specifications, test methods,
sampling procedures, and business practices) that are developed or
adopted by voluntary consensus standards bodies. The NTTAA directs EPA
to provide Congress, through OMB, explanations when the Agency decided
not to use available and applicable voluntary consensus standards.
As discussed above, these rules implement requirements specifically
and explicitly set forth by the Congress in section 328 of the Clean
Air Act,
[[Page 19476]]
without the exercise of any policy discretion by EPA. As required by
section 328 of the Clean Air Act, this rule simply updates the existing
OCS rules to make them consistent with current COA requirements. In the
absence of a prior existing requirement for the State to use voluntary
consensus standards and in light of the fact that EPA is required to
make the OCS rules consistent with current COA requirements, it would
be inconsistent with applicable law for EPA to use voluntary consensus
standards in this action. Therefore, EPA is not considering the use of
any voluntary consensus standards. EPA welcomes comments on this aspect
of the proposed rulemaking and, specifically, invites the public to
identify potentially-applicable voluntary consensus standards and to
explain why such standards should be used in this regulation.
J. Executive Order 12898: Federal Actions to Address Environmental
Justice in Minority Populations and Low-Income Populations.
Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629 (Feb. 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 lacks the discretionary authority
to address environmental justice in this proposed action. This rule
implements requirements specifically and explicitly set forth by the
Congress in section 328 of the Clean Air Act, without the exercise of
any policy discretion by EPA. As required by section 328 of the Clean
Air Act, this rule simply updates the existing OCS rules to make them
consistent with current COA requirements.
Although EPA lacks authority to modify today's regulatory decision
on the basis of environmental justice considerations, EPA nevertheless
explored this issue and found the following. This action, namely,
updating the OCS rules to make them consistent with current COA
requirements, will not have disproportionately high and adverse human
health or environmental effects on minority or low-income populations
because it increases the level of environmental protection for all
affected populations without having any disproportionately high and
adverse human health or environmental effects on any population,
including any minority or low-income population. Environmental justice
considerations may be appropriate to consider in the context of a
specific OCS permit application.
