ACTION: Direct final rule. AGENCY: EPA is approving an update to 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 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 Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The intended effect of approving the OCS requirements for the Commonwealth of Massachusetts is to regulate emissions from OCS sources in accordance with the requirements onshore. The change to the existing requirements discussed below is incorporated by reference into the Code of Federal Regulations and is listed in the appendix to the OCS air regulations. SUMMARY: This direct final rule will be effective October 25, 2010, unless EPA receives adverse comments by September 23, 2010. If adverse comments are received, EPA will publish a timely withdrawal of the direct final rule in the Federal Register informing the public that the rule will not take effect. The incorporation by reference of certain publications listed in this rule is approved by the Director of the Federal Register as of October 25, 2010.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Throughout this document whenever ‘‘we,’’ ‘‘us,’’ or ‘‘our’’ is used, we mean EPA. Organization of this document. The following outline is provided to aid in locating information in this preamble. I. Background and Purpose II. EPA’s Evaluation III. EPA’s 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 Outer Continental Shelf (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 Act. 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 1 The reader may refer to 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) for further background and information on the OCS regulations. E:\FR\FM\24AUR1.SGM 24AUR1 wwoods2 on DSK1DXX6B1PROD with RULES_PART 1 Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 163 / Tuesday, August 24, 2010 / Rules and Regulations the Act 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 corresponding onshore area (COA). Because the OCS requirements are based on onshore requirements, and onshore requirements may change, section 328(a)(1) requires that EPA update the OCS requirements as necessary to maintain consistency with onshore requirements. Pursuant to § 55.12 of the OCS rule, 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 as a result of EPA’s annual review of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts regulations. Section 328(a) of the Act requires that EPA establish requirements to control air pollution from OCS sources located within 25 miles of States’ seaward boundaries that are the same as onshore requirements. To comply with this statutory mandate, EPA must incorporate applicable onshore rules into part 55 as they exist onshore. This limits EPA’s flexibility in deciding which requirements will be incorporated into part 55 and 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 Act. Consistency updates may result in the inclusion of state or local rules or regulations into part 55, even though the same rules may ultimately be disapproved for inclusion as part of the SIP. Inclusion in the OCS rule does not imply that a rule meets the requirements of the Act for SIP approval, nor does it imply that the rule will be approved by EPA for inclusion in the SIP. On September 17, 2008 (73 FR 53718), EPA finalized a consistency update of the OCS regulations pertaining to the requirements of the OCS sources in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.2 After EPA’s September 17, 2008 updates to 40 CFR part 55, the Commonwealth of Massachusetts adopted regulation changes to 310 Code of Massachusetts 2 The reader may refer to the preamble to that final consistency update and to the preamble to the February 27, 2008 proposed consistency update (73 FR 10406) for background, including EPA’s interpretation of certain Massachusetts regulations as applied to OCS sources. Those interpretations continue to apply. VerDate Mar<15>2010 15:10 Aug 23, 2010 Jkt 220001 Regulations (CMR) 4.00: Timely Action Schedule and Fee Provisions, 310 CMR 6.00: Ambient Air Quality Standards for the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, 310 CMR 7.00: Air Pollution Control, and 310 CMR 8:00: The Prevention and/ or Abatement of Air Pollution Episode and Air Pollution Incident Emergencies. II. EPA’s Evaluation In updating 40 CFR part 55, EPA reviewed the state rules for inclusion in part 55 to ensure that they are rationally related to the attainment or maintenance of federal or state ambient air quality standards or part C of title I of the Act, that they are not designed expressly to prevent exploration and development of the OCS and that they 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,3 and requirements that regulate toxics which are not related to the attainment and maintenance of federal and state ambient air quality standards. III. EPA’s Action EPA is taking direct final action to incorporate applicable provisions of 310 Code of Massachusetts Regulations (CMR) 4.00: Timely Action Schedule and Fee Provisions, 310 CMR 6.00: Ambient Air Quality Standards for the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, 310 CMR 7.00: Air Pollution Control, and 310 CMR 8:00: The Prevention and/or Abatement of Air Pollution Episode and Air Pollution Incident Emergencies, as amended through May 20, 2010. The EPA is publishing this action without prior proposal because the Agency views this as a noncontroversial amendment and anticipates no adverse comments. However, in the proposed rules section of this Federal Register publication, EPA is publishing a separate document that will serve as the proposal to update the OCS regulations should relevant adverse comments be filed. This rule will be effective October 25, 2010 without further notice unless the Agency receives relevant adverse comments by September 23, 2010. If the EPA receives such comments, then EPA will publish a notice withdrawing the final rule and informing the public that the rule will not take effect. All public comments 3 Each COA that 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 Massachusetts, EPA will use its own administrative and procedural requirements to implement the substantive requirements. See 40 CFR 55.14(c)(4). Regarding fees, see 40 CFR 55.10. PO 00000 Frm 00035 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 51951 received will then be addressed in a subsequent final rule based on the proposed rule. The EPA will not institute a second comment period on the proposed rule. All parties interested in commenting on the proposed rule should do so at this time. If no such comments are received, the public is advised that this rule will be effective on October 25, 2010 and no further action will be taken on the proposed rule. Please note that if EPA receives adverse comment on an amendment, paragraph, or section of this rule and if that provision may be severed from the remainder of the rule, EPA may adopt as final those provisions of the rule that are not the subject of an adverse comment. IV. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews Under the Clean Air Act, the Administrator is required to establish requirements to control air pollution from OCS sources located within 25 miles of States’ seaward boundaries that are the same as onshore air control requirements. To comply with this statutory mandate, EPA must incorporate applicable onshore rules into part 55 as they exist onshore. 42 U.S.C. 7627(a)(1); 40 CFR 55.12. Thus, in promulgating OCS consistency updates, EPA’s role is to maintain consistency between OCS regulations and the regulations of onshore areas, provided that they meet the criteria of the Clean Air Act. Accordingly, this action simply updates the existing OCS requirements to make them consistent with requirements onshore, without the exercise of any policy discretion by EPA. 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); • 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); E:\FR\FM\24AUR1.SGM 24AUR1 wwoods2 on DSK1DXX6B1PROD with RULES_PART 1 51952 Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 163 / Tuesday, August 24, 2010 / Rules and Regulations • 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 it 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, nor does it impose substantial direct compliance costs on tribal governments, nor preempt tribal law. Under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act, 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq., 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. OMB has approved the information collection requirements contained in 40 CFR part 55 and, by extension, this update to the rules, 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 (70 FR 65897– 65898 (November 1, 2005)), the annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for collection of information under 40 CFR part 55 is estimated to average 549 hours per response using the definition of burden provided in 44 U.S.C. 3502(2). 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 VerDate Mar<15>2010 15:10 Aug 23, 2010 Jkt 220001 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). 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 October 25, 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 may not be challenged later in proceedings to enforce its requirements. (See section 307(b)(2).)

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Regulatory History On March 31, 2008, the NTSB published an NPRM entitled, ‘‘Notification and Reporting of Aircraft Accidents or Incidents and Overdue Aircraft, and Preservation of Aircraft Wreckage, Mail, Cargo, and Records,’’ in the Federal Register (73 FR 16826). This NPRM proposed the addition of a new definition of ‘‘unmanned aircraft accident’’ to the section of the NTSB’s regulations concerning notification of aircraft accidents and incidents (49 CFR 830.2) to clarify the applicability of these regulations to unmanned aircraft systems (UAS). The proposed definition stated, ‘‘Unmanned aircraft accident means an occurrence associated with the operation of a public or civil unmanned aircraft that takes place between the time that the aircraft is activated with the purpose of flight and the time that the aircraft is deactivated at the conclusion of its mission, in which any person suffers death or serious injury, or in which the aircraft receives substantial damage.’’ The NPRM also proposed the addition of the following sentence to the NTSB’s existing definition of aircraft accident: ‘‘For purposes of this part, the definition of ‘aircraft accident’ includes ‘unmanned aircraft accident,’ as defined herein.’’ Together, these proposed additions would require that the NTSB be notified of unmanned aircraft accidents as defined in the NPRM. The NTSB requested comments on the NPRM by June 30, 2008, but subsequently reopened the comment period for the NPRM and accepted all comments submitted by September 30, 2008. The NTSB analyzed the potential application of the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 United States Code [U.S.C.] 601– 612) to this rule. Before publishing the NPRM, the NTSB considered whether this rule would have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities, and it certified under 5 U.S.C. 605(b) that this rule would not have such an impact. The NTSB notes that this rule will require affected persons to notify the NTSB of applicable UAS accidents by the most expeditious means available as described in 49 CFR 830.5 and, in some cases, to complete NTSB Form 6120.1, ‘‘Pilot/Operator Accident/Incident Report,’’ as described in 49 CFR 830.15, within 10 days after an applicable UAS accident.

Outer Continental Shelf Air Regulations Consistency Update for 
Massachusetts

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Direct final rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA is approving an update to 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 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 
Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The intended effect of approving the OCS 
requirements for the Commonwealth of Massachusetts is to regulate 
emissions from OCS sources in accordance with the requirements onshore. 
The change to the existing requirements discussed below is incorporated 
by reference into the Code of Federal Regulations and is listed in the 
appendix to the OCS air regulations.

DATES: This direct final rule will be effective October 25, 2010, 
unless EPA receives adverse comments by September 23, 2010. If adverse 
comments are received, EPA will publish a timely withdrawal of the 
direct final rule in the Federal Register informing the public that the 
rule will not take effect. The incorporation by reference of certain 
publications listed in this rule is approved by the Director of the 
Federal Register as of October 25, 2010.

    Organization of this document. The following outline is provided to 
aid in locating information in this preamble.

I. Background and Purpose
II. EPA's Evaluation
III. EPA's 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 Outer 
Continental Shelf (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 Act. 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

[[Page 51951]]

the Act 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 corresponding onshore 
area (COA). Because the OCS requirements are based on onshore 
requirements, and onshore requirements may change, section 328(a)(1) 
requires that EPA update the OCS requirements as necessary to maintain 
consistency with onshore requirements.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ The reader may refer to 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) for further background 
and information on the OCS regulations.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Pursuant to Sec.  55.12 of the OCS rule, 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 as a result of EPA's annual review of 
the Commonwealth of Massachusetts regulations.
    Section 328(a) of the Act requires that EPA establish requirements 
to control air pollution from OCS sources located within 25 miles of 
States' seaward boundaries that are the same as onshore requirements. 
To comply with this statutory mandate, EPA must incorporate applicable 
onshore rules into part 55 as they exist onshore. This limits EPA's 
flexibility in deciding which requirements will be incorporated into 
part 55 and 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 
Act.
    Consistency updates may result in the inclusion of state or local 
rules or regulations into part 55, even though the same rules may 
ultimately be disapproved for inclusion as part of the SIP. Inclusion 
in the OCS rule does not imply that a rule meets the requirements of 
the Act for SIP approval, nor does it imply that the rule will be 
approved by EPA for inclusion in the SIP.
    On September 17, 2008 (73 FR 53718), EPA finalized a consistency 
update of the OCS regulations pertaining to the requirements of the OCS 
sources in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.\2\ After EPA's September 
17, 2008 updates to 40 CFR part 55, the Commonwealth of Massachusetts 
adopted regulation changes to 310 Code of Massachusetts Regulations 
(CMR) 4.00: Timely Action Schedule and Fee Provisions, 310 CMR 6.00: 
Ambient Air Quality Standards for the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, 
310 CMR 7.00: Air Pollution Control, and 310 CMR 8:00: The Prevention 
and/or Abatement of Air Pollution Episode and Air Pollution Incident 
Emergencies.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ The reader may refer to the preamble to that final 
consistency update and to the preamble to the February 27, 2008 
proposed consistency update (73 FR 10406) for background, including 
EPA's interpretation of certain Massachusetts regulations as applied 
to OCS sources. Those interpretations continue to apply.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

II. EPA's Evaluation

    In updating 40 CFR part 55, EPA reviewed the state rules for 
inclusion in part 55 to ensure that they are rationally related to the 
attainment or maintenance of federal or state ambient air quality 
standards or part C of title I of the Act, that they are not designed 
expressly to prevent exploration and development of the OCS and that 
they 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,\3\ and requirements that regulate toxics which are not related 
to the attainment and maintenance of federal and state ambient air 
quality standards.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ Each COA that 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 Massachusetts, EPA 
will use its own administrative and procedural requirements to 
implement the substantive requirements. See 40 CFR 55.14(c)(4). 
Regarding fees, see 40 CFR 55.10.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

III. EPA's Action

    EPA is taking direct final action to incorporate applicable 
provisions of 310 Code of Massachusetts Regulations (CMR) 4.00: Timely 
Action Schedule and Fee Provisions, 310 CMR 6.00: Ambient Air Quality 
Standards for the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, 310 CMR 7.00: Air 
Pollution Control, and 310 CMR 8:00: The Prevention and/or Abatement of 
Air Pollution Episode and Air Pollution Incident Emergencies, as 
amended through May 20, 2010.
    The EPA is publishing this action without prior proposal because 
the Agency views this as a noncontroversial amendment and anticipates 
no adverse comments. However, in the proposed rules section of this 
Federal Register publication, EPA is publishing a separate document 
that will serve as the proposal to update the OCS regulations should 
relevant adverse comments be filed. This rule will be effective October 
25, 2010 without further notice unless the Agency receives relevant 
adverse comments by September 23, 2010.
    If the EPA receives such comments, then EPA will publish a notice 
withdrawing the final rule and informing the public that the rule will 
not take effect. All public comments received will then be addressed in 
a subsequent final rule based on the proposed rule. The EPA will not 
institute a second comment period on the proposed rule. All parties 
interested in commenting on the proposed rule should do so at this 
time. If no such comments are received, the public is advised that this 
rule will be effective on October 25, 2010 and no further action will 
be taken on the proposed rule. Please note that if EPA receives adverse 
comment on an amendment, paragraph, or section of this rule and if that 
provision may be severed from the remainder of the rule, EPA may adopt 
as final those provisions of the rule that are not the subject of an 
adverse comment.

IV. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

    Under the Clean Air Act, the Administrator is required to establish 
requirements to control air pollution from OCS sources located within 
25 miles of States' seaward boundaries that are the same as onshore air 
control requirements. To comply with this statutory mandate, EPA must 
incorporate applicable onshore rules into part 55 as they exist 
onshore. 42 U.S.C. 7627(a)(1); 40 CFR 55.12. Thus, in promulgating OCS 
consistency updates, EPA's role is to maintain consistency between OCS 
regulations and the regulations of onshore areas, provided that they 
meet the criteria of the Clean Air Act. Accordingly, this action simply 
updates the existing OCS requirements to make them consistent with 
requirements onshore, without the exercise of any policy discretion by 
EPA. 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);
     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);

[[Page 51952]]

     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 it 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, nor does it impose 
substantial direct compliance costs on tribal governments, nor preempt 
tribal law.
    Under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act, 44 U.S.C. 3501 
et seq., 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. OMB has approved the information 
collection requirements contained in 40 CFR part 55 and, by extension, 
this update to the rules, 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 (70 FR 65897-65898 (November 1, 2005)), the annual 
public reporting and recordkeeping burden for collection of information 
under 40 CFR part 55 is estimated to average 549 hours per response 
using the definition of burden provided in 44 U.S.C. 3502(2).
    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).
    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 October 25, 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 may not be challenged later in 
proceedings to enforce its requirements. (See section 307(b)(2).)
