SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
On January 15, 2010 (75 FR 2452),
EPA published a notice of proposed
rulemaking (NPR) for the State of
Delaware. The NPR proposed approval
of the 15 percent RFP plan, the RFP
plan’s 2008 MVEBs, the 2002 base year
emissions inventory, contingency
measures, and the RACM analysis for
the Delaware portion of the
Philadelphia 1997 8-hour ozone
moderate nonattainment area. The
formal SIP revision was submitted by
the Delaware Department of Natural
Resources and Environmental Control
on June 13, 2007.
II. Summary of SIP Revision
The SIP revision addresses emissions
inventory, RACM, contingency
measures and the RFP requirements for
the 1997 8-hour ozone NAAQS for the
Delaware portion of the Philadelphia
moderate nonattainment area. The SIP
revision also establishes MVEBs for
2008. Other requirements of the SIP
revision and the rationale for EPA’s
proposed action are explained in the
NPR and will not be restated here. No
public comments were received on the
NPR.
III. Final Action
EPA is approving the Delaware SIP
revision that meets the RFP
requirements of the CAA for the
Delaware portion of the Philadelphia
1997 8-hour ozone moderate
nonattainment area. EPA is also
approving the RFP plan’s MVEBs, the
2002 base year emissions inventory,
contingency measures, and RACM
analysis associated with the SIP
revision. The SIP revision satisfies the
requirements for the 1997 8-hour ozone
NAAQS nonattainment areas classified
as moderate and demonstrates further
progress in reducing ozone precursors.

IV. Statutory and Executive Order
Reviews
A. General Requirements
Under the CAA, 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,
VerDate Nov<24>2008
15:46 Apr 07, 2010
Jkt 220001
EPA’s role is to approve state choices,
provided that they meet the criteria of
the CAA. 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 CAA; 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 CAA,
petitions for judicial review of this
action must be filed in the United States
Court of Appeals for the appropriate
circuit by June 7, 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 pertaining to the
Delaware’s RFP Plan, 2002 base year
emissions inventory, contingency
measures, RACM analysis, and
transportation conformity budgets, may
not be challenged later in proceedings to
enforce its requirements. (See section
307(b)(2).)

analysis for the Delaware portion of the Philadelphia 1997 8-hour ozone
moderate nonattainment area. The formal SIP revision was submitted by
the Delaware Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control
on June 13, 2007.
II. Summary of SIP Revision
The SIP revision addresses emissions inventory, RACM, contingency
measures and the RFP requirements for the 1997 8-hour ozone NAAQS for
the Delaware portion of the Philadelphia moderate nonattainment area.
The SIP revision also establishes MVEBs for 2008. Other requirements of
the SIP revision and the rationale for EPA's proposed action are
explained in the NPR and will not be restated here. No public comments
were received on the NPR.
III. Final Action
EPA is approving the Delaware SIP revision that meets the RFP

1997 8-hour ozone moderate nonattainment area. EPA is also approving
the RFP plan's MVEBs, the 2002 base year emissions inventory,

IV. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
A. General Requirements
Under the CAA, 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 CAA. 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 CAA; 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

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
