SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Throughout this document whenever
‘‘we,’’ ‘‘us,’’ or ‘‘our’’ is used, we mean
EPA.
The following outline is provided to
aid in locating information in this
preamble.
I. Background and Purpose
II. Final Action
III. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
I. Background and Purpose
On March 15, 2012 (77 FR 15329),
EPA published a Notice of Proposed
Rulemaking (NPR) for the State of
Maine. The NPR proposed approval of
Maine’s RACT demonstration for
satisfying the State’s RACT SIP revision
obligation as of September 15, 2006 and
proposed approval of Maine’s five other
submitted SIP regulations aimed at
reducing VOC emissions. Amongst
Maine’s other submitted SIP regulations
are two amended regulations and one
newly adopted regulation, covering a
total of four of the 11 Control
Techniques Guidelines (CTGs) issued
since 2006. The state must still address
the remaining seven CTGs.
A detailed explanation of the
applicable NOX and VOC RACT CAA
requirements with respect to the 1997 8hour ozone standard, as well as EPA’s
analysis of Maine’s RACT SIP submittal
and Maine’s other VOC regulations were
provided in the NPR and will not be
restated here. No public comments were
received on the NPR.
II. Final Action
EPA is approving Maine’s RACT
demonstration as meeting the state’s SIP
revision obligation as of September 15,
2006 with respect to the 1997 8-hour
ozone standard. EPA is also approving
and incorporating into the Maine SIP an

amendment (A–459–71–D–A, also
referred to as ‘‘Amendment #2’’) of the
Air Emission License A–459–72–B–R
issued to the McCain Foods USA, Inc.,
Tatermeal facility.
In addition, EPA is also approving the
following Maine regulations and
incorporating them into the Maine SIP:
Revised Chapter 131, Cutback Asphalt
and Emulsified Asphalt Regulation;
revised Chapter 123, Control of Volatile
Organic Compounds from Paper, Film
and Foil Coating Operations; revised
Chapter 129, Surface Coating Facilities;
revised Chapter 152, Control of Volatile
Organic Compounds from Consumer
Products; and newly adopted Chapter
161, Graphic Arts—Lithography and
Letterpress Printing.
III. 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);
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

sroberts on DSK5SPTVN1PROD with RULES
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
VerDate Mar<15>2010
16:49 May 21, 2012
Jkt 226001
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 23, 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 CAA
section 307(b)(2).)

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Throughout this document whenever ``we,''

The following outline is provided to aid in locating information in
this preamble.
I. Background and Purpose
II. Final Action
III. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
I. Background and Purpose
On March 15, 2012 (77 FR 15329), EPA published a Notice of Proposed
Rulemaking (NPR) for the State of Maine. The NPR proposed approval of
Maine's RACT demonstration for satisfying the State's RACT SIP revision
obligation as of September 15, 2006 and proposed approval of Maine's
five other submitted SIP regulations aimed at reducing VOC emissions.
Amongst Maine's other submitted SIP regulations are two amended
regulations and one newly adopted regulation, covering a total of four
of the 11 Control Techniques Guidelines (CTGs) issued since 2006. The
state must still address the remaining seven CTGs.
A detailed explanation of the applicable NOX and VOC
RACT CAA requirements with respect to the 1997 8-hour ozone standard,
as well as EPA's analysis of Maine's RACT SIP submittal and Maine's
other VOC regulations were provided in the NPR and will not be restated
here. No public comments were received on the NPR.
II. Final Action
EPA is approving Maine's RACT demonstration as meeting the state's
SIP revision obligation as of September 15, 2006 with respect to the
1997 8-hour ozone standard. EPA is also approving and incorporating
into the Maine SIP an amendment (A-459-71-D-A, also referred to as
``Amendment 2'') of the Air Emission License A-459-72-B-R
issued to the McCain Foods USA, Inc., Tatermeal facility.
In addition, EPA is also approving the following Maine regulations
and incorporating them into the Maine SIP: Revised Chapter 131, Cutback
Asphalt and Emulsified Asphalt Regulation; revised Chapter 123, Control
of Volatile Organic Compounds from Paper, Film and Foil Coating
Operations; revised Chapter 129, Surface Coating Facilities; revised
Chapter 152, Control of Volatile Organic Compounds from Consumer
Products; and newly adopted Chapter 161, Graphic Arts--Lithography and
Letterpress Printing.
III. 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); 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
[[Page 30217]]
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 23, 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 CAA section 307(b)(2).)
