SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background and Discussion: Section 209(e)(1) of the Act addresses the permanent preemption of any State, or political subdivision thereof, from adopting or attempting to enforce any standard or other requirement relating to the control of emissions for certain new nonroad engines or vehicles. Section 209(e)(2) of the Act requires the Administrator to grant California authorization to enforce State standards for new nonroad engines or vehicles which are not listed under section 209(e)(1), subject to certain restrictions. On July 20, 1994, EPA promulgated a regulation that sets forth, among other things, the criteria, as found in section 209(e)(2), by which EPA must consider any California authorization requests for new nonroad engines or vehicle emission standards (section 209(e) rules).1 Section 209(e)(2) requires the Administrator, after notice and opportunity for public hearing, to authorize California to enforce standards and other requirements relating to emissions control of new engines not listed under section 209(e)(1). The section 209(e) rule and its codified regulations 2 formally set forth the criteria, located in section 209(e)(2) of the Act, by which EPA must grant California authorization to enforce its new nonroad emission standards and they are as follows: 1 Section 209(e)(1) states, in part: No State or any political subdivision thereof shall adopt or attempt to enforce any standard or other requirement relating to the control of emissions from either of the following new nonroad engines or nonroad vehicles subject to regulation under this Act— (A) New engines which are used in construction equipment or vehicles or used in farm equipment or vehicles and which are smaller than 175 horsepower. (B) New locomotives or new engines used in locomotives. EPA’s regulation was published at 59 FR 36969 (July 20, 1994), and regulations set forth therein, 40 CFR Part 85, Subpart Q, §§ 85.1601 et seq. A new rule, signed on September 4, 2008, moves these provisions to 40 CFR Part 1074. 2 See 40 CFR Part 85, Subpart Q, § 85.1605. Upon effectiveness of the new rule, these criteria will be codified at 40 CFR 1074.105.

(b) The authorization shall not be granted if the Administrator finds that: (1) The determination of California is arbitrary and capricious; (2) California does not need such California standards to meet compelling and extraordinary conditions; or (3) California standards and accompanying enforcement procedures are not consistent with section 209. As stated in the preamble to the section 209(e) rule, EPA has interpreted the requirement ‘‘California standards and accompanying enforcement procedures are not consistent with section 209’’ to mean that California standards and accompanying enforcement procedures must be consistent with section 209(a), section 209(e)(1), and section 209(b)(1)(C), as EPA has interpreted that subsection in the context of motor vehicle waivers.3 In order to be consistent with section 209(a), California’s nonroad standards and enforcement procedures must not apply to new motor vehicles or new motor vehicle engines. Secondly, California’s nonroad standards and enforcement procedures must be consistent with section 209(e)(1), which identifies the categories permanently preempted from State regulation.4 California’s nonroad standards and enforcement procedures would be considered inconsistent with section 209 if they applied to the categories of engines or vehicles identified and preempted from State regulation in section 209(e)(1). Finally, because California’s nonroad standards and enforcement procedures must be consistent with section 209(b)(1)(C), EPA reviews nonroad authorization requests under the same ‘‘consistency’’ criteria that are applied to motor vehicle waiver requests. Under section 209(b)(1)(C), the Administrator shall not grant California a motor vehicle waiver if he finds that California ‘‘standards and accompanying enforcement procedures are not consistent with section 202(a)’’ of the Act. Previous decisions granting waivers of Federal preemption for motor vehicles have stated that State standards are inconsistent with section 202(a) if there is inadequate lead time to permit the development of the necessary technology giving appropriate 3 See 59 FR 36969, 36983 (July 20, 1994). 209(e)(1) of the Act has been codified at 40 CFR Part 85, Subpart Q ’’ 85.1602, 85.1603. Upon effectiveness of the new rule noted above, these permanently preempted categories will be codified at 40 CFR 1074.10, 1074.12. 4 Section VerDate Nov<24>2008 17:18 Mar 11, 2010 Jkt 220001 consideration to the cost of compliance within that time period or if the Federal and State test procedures impose inconsistent certification procedures.5 On August 8, 2008, CARB requested that EPA authorize California to enforce its In-Use Off-Road Diesel-Fueled Fleets regulation adopted at its July 26, 2007 public hearing (by Resolution 07–19) and subsequently modified after supplemental public comment by CARB’s Executive Officer by the In-Use Regulation in Executive Order R–08– 002 on April 4, 2008 (these regulations are codified at Title 13, California Code of Regulations sections 2449 through 2449.3). CARB’s regulations require fleets that operate nonroad, dieselfueled equipment with engines 25 hp and greater to meet fleet average emission standards for oxides of nitrogen and particulate matter. Alternatively, the regulations require the vehicles in those fleets to comply with best available control technology requirements. Based on this request EPA noticed and conducted a public hearing on October 27, 2008, and provided an opportunity to submit written comment through December 19, 2008.6 On February 11, 2010 CARB requested that EPA grant California authorization to enforce its In-Use OffRoad Diesel-Fueled Fleets regulation as amended in: December 2008 (and formally adopted in California on October 19, 2009); January 2009 (and formally adopted in California on December 31, 2009); and, a certain subset of amendments adopted by the CARB Board in July 2009 in response to California Assembly Bill 8 2X (and formally adopted on December 3, 2009). In CARB’s February 11, 2010 request letter to EPA it also notes additional amendments adopted in July 2009 and not yet formally adopted by California’s Office of Administrative Law. Once this last subset of amendments is formally adopted CARB plans to submit them to EPA for subsequent consideration. Based on CARB’s February 11, 2010 request and its In-Use Off-Road DieselFueled Fleets regulation, EPA invites comment on whether (a) CARB’s determination that its standards, in the aggregate, are at least as protective of public health and welfare as applicable Federal standards is arbitrary and 5 To be consistent, the California certification procedures need not be identical to the Federal certification procedures. California procedures would be inconsistent, however, if manufacturers would be unable to meet both the State and the Federal requirement with the same test vehicle in the course of the same test. See, e.g., 43 FR 32182 (July 25, 1978). 6 73 FR 58585 (October 7, 2008) and 73 FR 67509 (November 14, 2008).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Background and Discussion: Section 209(e)(1) of the Act addresses 
the permanent preemption of any State, or political subdivision 
thereof, from adopting or attempting to enforce any standard or other 
requirement relating to the control of emissions for certain new 
nonroad engines or vehicles. Section 209(e)(2) of the Act requires the 
Administrator to grant California authorization to enforce State 
standards for new nonroad engines or vehicles which are not listed 
under section 209(e)(1), subject to certain restrictions. On July 20, 
1994, EPA promulgated a regulation that sets forth, among other things, 
the criteria, as found in section 209(e)(2), by which EPA must consider 
any California authorization requests for new nonroad engines or 
vehicle emission standards (section 209(e) rules).\1\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ Section 209(e)(1) states, in part: No State or any political 
subdivision thereof shall adopt or attempt to enforce any standard 
or other requirement relating to the control of emissions from 
either of the following new nonroad engines or nonroad vehicles 
subject to regulation under this Act--
    (A) New engines which are used in construction equipment or 
vehicles or used in farm equipment or vehicles and which are smaller 
than 175 horsepower.
    (B) New locomotives or new engines used in locomotives.
    EPA's regulation was published at 59 FR 36969 (July 20, 1994), 
and regulations set forth therein, 40 CFR Part 85, Subpart Q, 
Sec. Sec.  85.1601 et seq. A new rule, signed on September 4, 2008, 
moves these provisions to 40 CFR Part 1074.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Section 209(e)(2) requires the Administrator, after notice and 
opportunity for public hearing, to authorize California to enforce 
standards and other requirements relating to emissions control of new 
engines not listed under section 209(e)(1). The section 209(e) rule and 
its codified regulations \2\ formally set forth the criteria, located 
in section 209(e)(2) of the Act, by which EPA must grant California 
authorization to enforce its new nonroad emission standards and they 
are as follows:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ See 40 CFR Part 85, Subpart Q, Sec.  85.1605. Upon 
effectiveness of the new rule, these criteria will be codified at 40 
CFR 1074.105.


[[Page 11881]]


---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    (a) The Administrator shall grant the authorization if 
California determines that California standards will be, in the 
aggregate, at least as protective of public health and welfare as 
applicable Federal standards.
    (b) The authorization shall not be granted if the Administrator 
finds that:
    (1) The determination of California is arbitrary and capricious;
    (2) California does not need such California standards to meet 
compelling and extraordinary conditions; or
    (3) California standards and accompanying enforcement procedures 
are not consistent with section 209.

    As stated in the preamble to the section 209(e) rule, EPA has 
interpreted the requirement ``California standards and accompanying 
enforcement procedures are not consistent with section 209'' to mean 
that California standards and accompanying enforcement procedures must 
be consistent with section 209(a), section 209(e)(1), and section 
209(b)(1)(C), as EPA has interpreted that subsection in the context of 
motor vehicle waivers.\3\ In order to be consistent with section 
209(a), California's nonroad standards and enforcement procedures must 
not apply to new motor vehicles or new motor vehicle engines. Secondly, 
California's nonroad standards and enforcement procedures must be 
consistent with section 209(e)(1), which identifies the categories 
permanently preempted from State regulation.\4\ California's nonroad 
standards and enforcement procedures would be considered inconsistent 
with section 209 if they applied to the categories of engines or 
vehicles identified and preempted from State regulation in section 
209(e)(1).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ See 59 FR 36969, 36983 (July 20, 1994).
    \4\ Section 209(e)(1) of the Act has been codified at 40 CFR 
Part 85, Subpart Q '' 85.1602, 85.1603. Upon effectiveness of the 
new rule noted above, these permanently preempted categories will be 
codified at 40 CFR 1074.10, 1074.12.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Finally, because California's nonroad standards and enforcement 
procedures must be consistent with section 209(b)(1)(C), EPA reviews 
nonroad authorization requests under the same ``consistency'' criteria 
that are applied to motor vehicle waiver requests. Under section 
209(b)(1)(C), the Administrator shall not grant California a motor 
vehicle waiver if he finds that California ``standards and accompanying 
enforcement procedures are not consistent with section 202(a)'' of the 
Act. Previous decisions granting waivers of Federal preemption for 
motor vehicles have stated that State standards are inconsistent with 
section 202(a) if there is inadequate lead time to permit the 
development of the necessary technology giving appropriate 
consideration to the cost of compliance within that time period or if 
the Federal and State test procedures impose inconsistent certification 
procedures.\5\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ To be consistent, the California certification procedures 
need not be identical to the Federal certification procedures. 
California procedures would be inconsistent, however, if 
manufacturers would be unable to meet both the State and the Federal 
requirement with the same test vehicle in the course of the same 
test. See, e.g., 43 FR 32182 (July 25, 1978).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    On August 8, 2008, CARB requested that EPA authorize California to 
enforce its In-Use Off-Road Diesel-Fueled Fleets regulation adopted at 
its July 26, 2007 public hearing (by Resolution 07-19) and subsequently 
modified after supplemental public comment by CARB's Executive Officer 
by the In-Use Regulation in Executive Order R-08-002 on April 4, 2008 
(these regulations are codified at Title 13, California Code of 
Regulations sections 2449 through 2449.3). CARB's regulations require 
fleets that operate nonroad, diesel-fueled equipment with engines 25 hp 
and greater to meet fleet average emission standards for oxides of 
nitrogen and particulate matter. Alternatively, the regulations require 
the vehicles in those fleets to comply with best available control 
technology requirements. Based on this request EPA noticed and 
conducted a public hearing on October 27, 2008, and provided an 
opportunity to submit written comment through December 19, 2008.\6\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ 73 FR 58585 (October 7, 2008) and 73 FR 67509 (November 14, 
2008).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    On February 11, 2010 CARB requested that EPA grant California 
authorization to enforce its In-Use Off-Road Diesel-Fueled Fleets 
regulation as amended in: December 2008 (and formally adopted in 
California on October 19, 2009); January 2009 (and formally adopted in 
California on December 31, 2009); and, a certain subset of amendments 
adopted by the CARB Board in July 2009 in response to California 
Assembly Bill 8 2X (and formally adopted on December 3, 2009). In 
CARB's February 11, 2010 request letter to EPA it also notes additional 
amendments adopted in July 2009 and not yet formally adopted by 
California's Office of Administrative Law. Once this last subset of 
amendments is formally adopted CARB plans to submit them to EPA for 
subsequent consideration.
    Based on CARB's February 11, 2010 request and its In-Use Off-Road 
Diesel-Fueled Fleets regulation, EPA invites comment on whether (a) 
CARB's determination that its standards, in the aggregate, are at least 
as protective of public health and welfare as applicable Federal 
standards is arbitrary and capricious, (b) California needs separate 
standards to meet compelling and extraordinary conditions, and (c) 
California's standards and accompanying enforcement procedures are 
consistent with section 209 of the Act.
    Procedures for Public Participation: In recognition that public 
hearings are designed to give interested parties an opportunity to 
participate in this proceeding, there are not adverse parties as such. 
Statements by participants will not be subject to cross-examination by 
other participants without special approval by the presiding officer. 
The presiding officer is authorized to strike from the record 
statements that he or she deems irrelevant or repetitious and to impose 
reasonable time limits on the duration of the statement of any 
participant.
    Persons with comments containing proprietary information must 
distinguish such information from other comments to the greatest 
possible extent and label it as Confidential Business Information 
(CBI). If a person making comments wants EPA to base its decision in 
part on a submission labeled CBI, then a non-confidential version of 
the document that summarizes the key data or information should be 
submitted for the public docket. To ensure that proprietary information 
is not inadvertently placed in the docket, submissions containing such 
information should be sent directly to the contact person listed above 
and not to the public docket. Information covered by a claim of 
confidentiality will be disclosed by EPA only to the extent allowed and 
by the procedures set forth in 40 CFR Part 2. If no claim of 
confidentiality accompanies the submission when EPA receives it, EPA 
will make it available to the public without further notice to the 
person making comments.
