Environmental Impacts Statements; Notice of Availability, 25165-25166 [2012-10200]

Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 82 / Friday, April 27, 2012 / Notices Plan. EPA Region 10 sent a letter to the Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation on April 2, 2012, subsequent to the close of the comment period stating EPA found the Eagle River PM10 Limited Maintenance Plan to be adequate for use in transportation conformity. Because limited maintenance plans do not contain budgets, as provided in 40 CFR 93.109(l), the adequacy review period for these maintenance plans serves to allow the public to comment on whether limited maintenance is appropriate for these areas. As a result of this adequacy finding, the Municipality of Anchorage, Alaska Department of Transportation & Public Facilities, and the U.S. Department of Transportation are no longer required to conduct a regional emissions analysis for conformity. However, other conformity requirements still remain such as consultation (40 CFR 93.112), transportation control measures (40 CFR 93.113), and project level analysis (40 CFR 93.116). Transportation conformity is required by section 176(c) of the Clean Air Act. EPA’s conformity rule requires transportation plans, programs, and projects to conform to SIPs and establishes the criteria and procedures for determining whether or not they do. Conformity to a SIP means that transportation activities will not produce new air quality violations, worsen existing violations, or delay timely attainment of the national ambient air quality standards. The minimum criteria by which we determine whether a SIP is adequate for conformity purposes are specified at 40 CFR 93.118(e)(4). EPA’s analysis of how the state’s submission satisfies these criteria is found in the Technical Support Document. EPA’s adequacy review is separate from EPA’s SIP completeness review and it also should not be used to prejudge EPA’s ultimate approval of the SIP. Even if we find the SIP adequate for conformity purposes, the SIP could later be disapproved. mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES Authority: 42 U.S.C. 7401–7671q. Dated: April 16, 2012.
