I. Background
II. Scope of Action
III. Final Action
IV. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
On July 18, 1997, EPA promulgated a
new NAAQS for ozone. EPA revised the
ozone NAAQS to provide an 8-hour
averaging period which replaced the
previous 1-hour averaging period, and
the level of the NAAQS was changed
from 0.12 parts per million (ppm) to
0.08 ppm (62 FR 38856). The CAA
requires SIPs meeting the requirements
of sections 110(a)(1) and (2) be
submitted by states within 3 years after
promulgation of a new or revised
standard. Sections 110(a)(1) and (2)
require states to address basic SIP
requirements, including emissions
inventories, monitoring, and modeling
to assure attainment and maintenance of
the standards, so-called ‘‘infrastructure’’
requirements. To help states meet this
statutory requirement for the 1997 8hour ozone NAAQS, EPA issued
guidance to address infrastructure SIP
elements under section 110(a)(1) and
(2).1 In the case of the 1997 8-hour
ozone NAAQS, states typically have met
the basic program elements required in
section 110(a)(2) through earlier SIP
submissions in connection with
previous ozone standards. The State of
Oregon submitted a certification to EPA
on September 25, 2008, certifying that
Oregon’s SIP meets the infrastructure
obligations for the 1997 8-hour ozone
NAAQS. The certification included an
analysis of Oregon’s SIP as it relates to
each section of the infrastructure
requirements with regard to the 1997 8hour ozone NAAQS. On February 7,
2012, EPA published a notice of
proposed rulemaking (NPR) for the State
of Oregon (77 FR 6044) to act on the
state’s infrastructure SIP for the 1997
ozone NAAQS. Specifically in the NPR,
EPA proposed approval of Oregon’s SIP
as meeting the requirements for the
following 110(a)(2) infrastructure
elements for the 1997 8-hour ozone
NAAQS: (A), (B), (C), (D)(ii), (E), (F), (G),
(H), (J), (K), (L), and (M). As discussed
in the NPR, this action does not address
110(a)(2)(D)(i) and 110(a)(2)(I). The
public comment period for EPA’s NPR
closed on March 8, 2012. EPA received
no comments on the proposed action.

II. Scope of Action
Oregon has not demonstrated
authority to implement and enforce the
Oregon Administrative Rules within
‘‘Indian Country’’ as defined in 18
U.S.C. 1151.2 Therefore, this SIP
approval does not extend to ‘‘Indian
Country’’ in Oregon. See CAA sections
110(a)(2)(A) (SIP shall include
enforceable emission limits),
110(a)(2)(E)(i) (State must have adequate
authority under State law to carry out
SIP), and 172(c)(6) (nonattainment SIPs
shall include enforceable emission
limits). This is consistent with EPA’s
previous approval of Oregon’s PSD
program, in which EPA specifically
disapproved the program for sources
within Indian Reservations in Oregon
because the State had not shown it had
authority to regulate such sources. See
40 CFR 52.1987(c). It is also consistent
with EPA’s approval of Oregon’s title V
operating permits program. See 59 FR
61820, 61827 (December 2, 1994)
(interim approval does not extend to
Indian Country); 60 FR 50106, 50106
(September 28, 1995) (full approval does
not extend to Indian Country).
III. Final Action
EPA is approving the September 25,
2008, SIP submittal from the State of
Oregon to demonstrate that the SIP
meets the requirements of section
110(a)(1) and (2) of the CAA for the
NAAQS promulgated for ozone on July
18, 1997. EPA is approving the
following section 110(a)(2)
infrastructure elements for Oregon for
the 1997 ozone NAAQS: (A), (B), (C),
(D)(ii), (E), (F), (G), (H), (J), (K), (L), (M).
EPA is taking no action on
infrastructure elements (D)(i) and (I) for
the 1997 ozone NAAQS. This action is
being taken under section 110 of the
CAA.
IV. Statutory and Executive Order
Reviews
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);
2 ‘‘Indian country’’ is defined under 18 U.S.C.
1151 as: (1) All land within the limits of any Indian
reservation under the jurisdiction of the United
States Government, notwithstanding the issuance of
any patent, and including rights-of-way running
through the reservation, (2) all dependent Indian
communities within the borders of the United
States, whether within the original or subsequently
acquired territory thereof, and whether within or
without the limits of a State, and (3) all Indian
allotments, the Indian titles to which have not been
extinguished, including rights-of-way running
through the same. Under this definition, EPA treats
as reservations trust lands validly set aside for the
use of a Tribe even if the trust lands have not been
formally designated as a reservation.

ebenthall on DSK5SPTVN1PROD with RULES
Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 98 / Monday, May 21, 2012 / Rules and Regulations
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.
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
VerDate Mar<15>2010
16:13 May 18, 2012
Jkt 226001
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 July 20, 2012.
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)).

Table of Contents
I. Background
II. Scope of Action
III. Final Action
IV. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
I. Background
On July 18, 1997, EPA promulgated a new NAAQS for ozone. EPA
revised the ozone NAAQS to provide an 8-hour averaging period which
replaced the previous 1-hour averaging period, and the level of the
NAAQS was changed from 0.12 parts per million (ppm) to 0.08 ppm (62 FR
38856). The CAA requires SIPs meeting the requirements of sections
110(a)(1) and (2) be submitted by states within 3 years after
promulgation of a new or revised standard. Sections 110(a)(1) and (2)
require states to address basic SIP requirements, including emissions
inventories, monitoring, and modeling to assure attainment and
maintenance of the standards, so-called ``infrastructure''
requirements. To help states meet this statutory requirement for the
1997 8-hour ozone NAAQS, EPA issued guidance to address infrastructure
SIP elements under section 110(a)(1) and (2).\1\ In the case of the
1997 8-hour ozone NAAQS, states typically have met the basic program
elements required in section 110(a)(2) through earlier SIP submissions
in connection with previous ozone standards. The State of Oregon
submitted a certification to EPA on September 25, 2008, certifying that
Oregon's SIP meets the infrastructure obligations for the 1997 8-hour
ozone NAAQS. The certification included an analysis of Oregon's SIP as
it relates to each section of the infrastructure requirements with
regard to the 1997 8-hour ozone NAAQS. On February 7, 2012, EPA
published a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPR) for the State of Oregon
(77 FR 6044) to act on the state's infrastructure SIP for the 1997
ozone NAAQS. Specifically in the NPR, EPA proposed approval of Oregon's
SIP as meeting the requirements for the following 110(a)(2)
infrastructure elements for the 1997 8-hour ozone NAAQS: (A), (B), (C),
(D)(ii), (E), (F), (G), (H), (J), (K), (L), and (M). As discussed in
the NPR, this action does not address 110(a)(2)(D)(i) and 110(a)(2)(I).
The public comment period for EPA's NPR closed on March 8, 2012. EPA
received no comments on the proposed action.

hour Ozone and PM2.5 National Ambient Air Quality
Standards.'' Memorandum to EPA Air Division Directors, Regions I-X,

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
II. Scope of Action
Oregon has not demonstrated authority to implement and enforce the
Oregon Administrative Rules within ``Indian Country'' as defined in 18
U.S.C. 1151.\2\ Therefore, this SIP approval does not extend to
``Indian Country'' in Oregon. See CAA sections 110(a)(2)(A) (SIP shall
include enforceable emission limits), 110(a)(2)(E)(i) (State must have
adequate authority under State law to carry out SIP), and 172(c)(6)
(nonattainment SIPs shall include enforceable emission limits). This is
consistent with EPA's previous approval of Oregon's PSD program, in
which EPA specifically disapproved the program for sources within
Indian Reservations in Oregon because the State had not shown it had
authority to regulate such sources. See 40 CFR 52.1987(c). It is also
consistent with EPA's approval of Oregon's title V operating permits
program. See 59 FR 61820, 61827 (December 2, 1994) (interim approval
does not extend to Indian Country); 60 FR 50106, 50106 (September 28,
1995) (full approval does not extend to Indian Country).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\2\ ``Indian country'' is defined under 18 U.S.C. 1151 as: (1)
All land within the limits of any Indian reservation under the
jurisdiction of the United States Government, notwithstanding the
issuance of any patent, and including rights-of-way running through
the reservation, (2) all dependent Indian communities within the
borders of the United States, whether within the original or
subsequently acquired territory thereof, and whether within or
without the limits of a State, and (3) all Indian allotments, the
Indian titles to which have not been extinguished, including rights-
of-way running through the same. Under this definition, EPA treats
as reservations trust lands validly set aside for the use of a Tribe
even if the trust lands have not been formally designated as a
reservation.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
III. Final Action
EPA is approving the September 25, 2008, SIP submittal from the
State of Oregon to demonstrate that the SIP meets the requirements of
section 110(a)(1) and (2) of the CAA for the NAAQS promulgated for
ozone on July 18, 1997. EPA is approving the following section
110(a)(2) infrastructure elements for Oregon for the 1997 ozone NAAQS:
(A), (B), (C), (D)(ii), (E), (F), (G), (H), (J), (K), (L), (M). EPA is
taking no action on infrastructure elements (D)(i) and (I) for the 1997
ozone NAAQS. This action is being taken under section 110 of the CAA.
IV. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
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);
[[Page 29905]]
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.
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 July 20, 2012. 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)).
