SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
On January 5, 2010 (75 FR 2), EPA
published a notice of proposed
rulemaking (NPR) for the State of
Delaware. The NPR proposed approval
of Delaware’s SIP revision pertaining to
E:\FR\FM\16MRR1.SGM
16MRR1
12450
Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 50 / Tuesday, March 16, 2010 / Rules and Regulations
Regulation No. 1146—Electric
Generating Unit (EGU) Multi-Pollutant
Regulation. The regulation was adopted
in order to impose lower emissions
limits of nitrogen oxides (NOX) and SO2
in order to help Delaware attain and
maintain the national ambient air
quality standards (NAAQS) for ozone
and fine particulate matter (PM2.5), as
well as to assist Delaware in achieving
the emissions reductions needed to
support the State’s 8-hour ozone
reasonable further progress plan (RFP).
The formal SIP revision was submitted
by the Delaware Department of Natural
Resources and Environmental Control
(DNREC) November 16, 2006. No
comments were received on the NPR.
II. Summary of SIP Revision
On October 7, 2009, EPA received a
SIP revision to amend Regulation No.
1146. This SIP revision was the result of
a settlement agreement between
Conectiv Delmarva Generating, Inc. and
DNREC in December 2008. Conectiv had
filed an appeal challenging the
regulation for their Edge Moor 5 facility.
The emissions limit of 2,427 tons per
year limited the facility from operating
in extreme circumstances in the event
that failure at other production units
would require them to exceed that limit
in order to supply the needed
electricity. The limit of 4,600 tons per
year was determined to be an adequate
limit after an analysis of the facility’s
history of operation and the estimate of
future operations using the low sulfur
(0.5%) residual fuel to generate
electricity at the 446 megawatt oil-fired
steam generating unit. Currently, the
facility operates at a 10% capacity
factor. If so required, the new emissions
limit would allow the facility to operate
at a 45% capacity factor.
The Delaware Department of Natural
Resources and Environmental Control
requested that a revision to the State’s
SIP concerning an amendment, which
modifies the SO2 mass emissions limit
associated with Conectiv Edge Moor
Unit 5, be approved.

III. Final Action
Delaware has met the requirements
concerning an amendment to the
Electric Generating Unit Multi-Pollutant
Regulation of Delaware’s Administrative
Code, which modifies the SO2 mass
emissions limit associated with
Conectiv Edge Moor Unit 5. The
purpose of this revision is to assist
Delaware in achieving the emissions
reductions needed to support the State’s
8-hour ozone RFP, and therefore, EPA is
approving it.

IV. Statutory and Executive Order
Reviews
A. General Requirements
Under the Clean Air Act, the
Administrator is required to approve a
SIP submission that complies with the
provisions of the Act and applicable
Federal regulations. 42 U.S.C. 7410(k);
40 CFR 52.02(a). Thus, in reviewing SIP
submissions, EPA’s role is to approve
state choices, provided that they meet
the criteria of the Clean Air Act.
Accordingly, this action merely
approves state law as meeting Federal
requirements and does not impose
additional requirements beyond those
imposed by state law. For that reason,
this action:
• Is not a ‘‘significant regulatory
action’’ subject to review by the Office
of Management and Budget under
Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 51735,
October 4, 1993);
• Does not impose an information
collection burden under the provisions
of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44
U.S.C. 3501 et seq.);
• Is certified as not having a
significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities
under the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5
U.S.C. 601 et seq.);
• 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);
• Does not have Federalism
implications as specified in Executive
Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10,
1999);
• Is not an economically significant
regulatory action based on health or
safety risks subject to Executive Order
13045 (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997);
• Is not a significant regulatory action
subject to Executive Order 13211 (66 FR
28355, May 22, 2001);
• Is not subject to requirements of
Section 12(d) of the National
Technology Transfer and Advancement
Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272 note) because
application of those requirements would
be inconsistent with the Clean Air Act;
and
• Does not provide EPA with the
discretionary authority to address, as
appropriate, disproportionate human
health or environmental effects, using
practicable and legally permissible
methods, under Executive Order 12898
(59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).
In addition, this rule does not have
tribal implications as specified by
Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249,
November 9, 2000), because the SIP is
not approved to apply in Indian country
located in the state, and EPA notes that
PO 00000
Frm 00014
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
it will not impose substantial direct
costs on tribal governments or preempt
tribal law.
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. EPA will submit a
report containing this action 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).
C. Petitions for Judicial Review
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 May 17, 2010.
Filing a petition for reconsideration by
the Administrator of this final rule does
not affect the finality of this action 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
approving Delaware’s SIP revision
pertaining to an amendment to the
Electric Generating Unit Multi-Pollutant
Regulation of Delaware’s Administrative
Code, which modifies the SO2 mass
emissions limit associated with
Conectiv Edge Moor Unit 5, may not be
challenged later in proceedings to
enforce its requirements. (See section
307(b)(2).)

Mandatory Reporting of Greenhouse
Gases: Minor Harmonizing Changes to
the General Provisions

AGENCY: Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Direct final rule.
SUMMARY: EPA is taking direct final
action to amend the general provisions
for the Mandatory Greenhouse Gas
(GHG) Reporting Rule. The amendments
do not change the requirements of the
regulation for facilities and suppliers
covered by the 2009 final rule. Rather,
the amendments are minor changes to
the format of several sections of the
general provisions to accommodate the
addition of new subparts in the future
in a simple and clear manner. These
changes include updating the language
for the schedule for submitting reports
and calibrating equipment to recognize
that subparts that may be added in the
future would have later deadlines.
These revisions do not change the
requirements for subparts included in
the 2009 final rule.
DATES: This direct final rule is effective
May 17, 2010 without further notice,
unless EPA receives adverse comments
by April 15, 2010, or by April 30, 2010

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
On January 5, 2010 (75 FR 2), EPA published a notice of proposed
rulemaking (NPR) for the State of Delaware. The NPR proposed approval
of Delaware's SIP revision pertaining to
[[Page 12450]]
Regulation No. 1146--Electric Generating Unit (EGU) Multi-Pollutant
Regulation. The regulation was adopted in order to impose lower
emissions limits of nitrogen oxides (NOX) and SO2
in order to help Delaware attain and maintain the national ambient air
quality standards (NAAQS) for ozone and fine particulate matter
(PM2.5), as well as to assist Delaware in achieving the
emissions reductions needed to support the State's 8-hour ozone
reasonable further progress plan (RFP). The formal SIP revision was
submitted by the Delaware Department of Natural Resources and
Environmental Control (DNREC) November 16, 2006. No comments were
received on the NPR.
II. Summary of SIP Revision
On October 7, 2009, EPA received a SIP revision to amend Regulation
No. 1146. This SIP revision was the result of a settlement agreement
between Conectiv Delmarva Generating, Inc. and DNREC in December 2008.
Conectiv had filed an appeal challenging the regulation for their Edge
Moor 5 facility. The emissions limit of 2,427 tons per year limited the
facility from operating in extreme circumstances in the event that
failure at other production units would require them to exceed that
limit in order to supply the needed electricity. The limit of 4,600
tons per year was determined to be an adequate limit after an analysis
of the facility's history of operation and the estimate of future
operations using the low sulfur (0.5%) residual fuel to generate
electricity at the 446 megawatt oil-fired steam generating unit.
Currently, the facility operates at a 10% capacity factor. If so
required, the new emissions limit would allow the facility to operate
at a 45% capacity factor.
The Delaware Department of Natural Resources and Environmental
Control requested that a revision to the State's SIP concerning an
amendment, which modifies the SO2 mass emissions limit
associated with Conectiv Edge Moor Unit 5, be approved.
III. Final Action
Delaware has met the requirements concerning an amendment to the
Electric Generating Unit Multi-Pollutant Regulation of Delaware's
Administrative Code, which modifies the SO2 mass emissions
limit associated with Conectiv Edge Moor Unit 5. The purpose of this
revision is to assist Delaware in achieving the emissions reductions
needed to support the State's 8-hour ozone RFP, and therefore, EPA is
approving it.
IV. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
A. General Requirements
Under the Clean Air Act, the Administrator is required to approve a
SIP submission that complies with the provisions of the Act and
applicable Federal regulations. 42 U.S.C. 7410(k); 40 CFR 52.02(a).
Thus, in reviewing SIP submissions, EPA's role is to approve state
choices, provided that they meet the criteria of the Clean Air Act.
Accordingly, this action merely approves state law as meeting Federal
requirements and does not impose additional requirements beyond those
imposed by state law. For that reason, this action:
Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' subject to
review by the Office of Management and Budget under Executive Order
12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993);
Does not impose an information collection burden under the
provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.);
Is certified as not having a significant economic impact
on a substantial number of small entities under the Regulatory
Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.);
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);
Does not have Federalism implications as specified in
Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999);
Is not an economically significant regulatory action based
on health or safety risks subject to Executive Order 13045 (62 FR
19885, April 23, 1997);
Is not a significant regulatory action subject to
Executive Order 13211 (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001);
Is not subject to requirements of Section 12(d) of the
National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272
note) because application of those requirements would be inconsistent
with the Clean Air Act; and
Does not provide EPA with the discretionary authority to
address, as appropriate, disproportionate human health or environmental
effects, using practicable and legally permissible methods, under
Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).
In addition, this rule does not have tribal implications as
specified by Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000),
because the SIP is not approved to apply in Indian country located in
the state, and EPA notes that it will not impose substantial direct
costs on tribal governments or preempt tribal law.
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. EPA will submit a report containing this action 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).
C. Petitions for Judicial Review
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 May 17, 2010. Filing a
petition for reconsideration by the Administrator of this final rule
does not affect the finality of this action 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 approving Delaware's SIP revision
pertaining to an amendment to the Electric Generating Unit Multi-
Pollutant Regulation of Delaware's Administrative Code, which modifies
the SO2 mass emissions limit associated with Conectiv Edge
Moor Unit 5, may not be challenged later in proceedings to enforce its
requirements. (See section 307(b)(2).)
