FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: The Oregon Department of Transportation has requested that the Interstate 5 Bridges across the Columbia River remain closed to vessel traffic to facilitate heavier than normal roadway traffic volume associated with a fireworks show on July 4, 2012 near the bridges. The I–5 Bridges cross the Columbia River at mile 106.5 and provide three designated navigation channels with vertical clearances ranging from 39 to 72 feet above Columbia River Datum 0.0 while the lift spans are in the closed position. Vessels which do not require a bridge opening may continue to transit beneath the bridges during this closure period. Under normal operation the bridges operate in accordance with 33 CFR 117.869, which states that the draws shall open on signal except that the draws need not open 6:30 a.m. to 9 a.m. and from 2:30 p.m. to 6 p.m., Monday through Friday excluding federal holidays. This deviation period is from 9 p.m. on July 4, 2012 through 11:59 p.m., July 4, 2012. The deviation allows the lift spans of the I–5 Bridges across the Columbia River, mile 106.5, to remain in the closed position and need not open for maritime traffic from 9 p.m. through 11:59 p.m. on July 4, 2012. The lift spans will be required to open, if needed, for vessels engaged in emergency response operations during this closure period. The bridge shall operate in accordance with 33 CFR 117.869 at all other times. Waterway usage on this stretch of the Columbia River includes vessels ranging from commercial tug and tow vessels to recreational pleasure craft. Mariners will be notified and kept informed of the bridge’s operational status via the Coast Guard Notice to Mariners publication. In accordance with 33 CFR 117.35(e), the drawbridges must return to their regular operating schedule immediately at the end of the designated time period. This deviation from the operating regulations is authorized under 33 CFR 117.35. Dated: June 13, 2012. Randall D. Overton, Bridge Administrator.

ACTION: Final rule. AGENCY: EPA is finalizing a limited approval of a revision to the State Implementation Plan (SIP) for Iowa, submitted by the Iowa Department of Natural Resources on March 25, 2008, that addresses Regional Haze for the first implementation period. Specifically, these revisions address the requirements of the Clean Air Act (CAA or Act) and EPA’s rules that required States to prevent any future and remedy any existing anthropogenic impairment of visibility in Class I areas (national parks and wilderness areas) caused by emissions of air pollutants located over a wide geographic area (also known as the ‘‘regional haze’’ program). EPA proposed to approve these revisions on February 28, 2012. In a separate rulemaking action, EPA finalized the limited disapproval of Iowa’s regional haze SIP and imposed a Federal Implementation Plan (FIP) for Iowa which was signed on May 30, 2012, and published in the Federal Register on June 7, 2012. DATES: This rule will become effective July 26, 2012, except that the amendment to § 52.842 is effective August 6, 2012.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Throughout this document, the terms ‘‘we,’’ ‘‘us,’’ and ‘‘our’’ refer to EPA. Table of Contents I. Background II. Public Comments and EPA Responses III. Technical Corrections IV. Final Action V. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews I. Background On February 28, 2012 (77 FR 11974), EPA published a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPR) for the State of Iowa, proposing limited approval of Iowa’s regional haze plan for the first implementation period (through 2018). A detailed explanation of the CAA’s visibility requirements and the regional haze rule as it applies to Iowa was provided in the NPR and will not be restated here. EPA’s rationale for proposing limited approval of the Iowa SIP was also described in detail in the proposal. II. Public Comments and EPA Responses The publication of EPA’s proposed rule on February 28, 2012, initiated a 30 day public comment period that ended on March 29, 2012. During the public comment period we received no written comments. III. Technical Corrections Table 2, ‘‘Iowa’s Absolute Contribution to Visibility Impairment, Northern Midwest Class I Areas’’ contained one numerical error. Iowa’s 2002 contribution to Voyagers should read 2.16 rather than 2.60. In Table 7, ‘‘2002 Iowa Emissions Summary,’’ the NH3 area source inventory should read 6,560 rather than 6.560.
