II. Summary of SIP Revision
This SIP revision consists of
amendments to COMAR 26.11.19.11 to
adopt a new CTG for offset lithographic
printers and letterpress printers, entitled
Control Techniques Guidelines for
Offset Lithographic Printing and
Letterpress Printing (see EPA 453/R–06–
002). A detailed summary of EPA’s
review of and rationale for approving
this SIP revision may be found in the
TSD for this action which is available in
the docket. No public comments were
received on the NPR.
III. Final Action
EPA is approving the Maryland SIP
revision which adopts the CTG
standards for offset lithographic printing
and letterpress printing into the Code of
Maryland.
IV. Statutory and Executive Order
Reviews
I. Background
A. General Requirements
On May 14, 2012 (77 FR 28336), EPA
published a notice of proposed
rulemaking (NPR) for the State of
Maryland. The NPR proposed approval
of amendments to COMAR 26.11.19.11,
Lithographic and Letterpress Printing.
The amendments adopt EPA’s CTG for
lithographic and letterpress printing.
The formal SIP revision (#11–09) was
submitted by the Maryland Department
of the Environment (MDE) on December
15, 2011. Additional background
Under the CAA, the Administrator is
required to approve a SIP submission
that complies with the provisions of the
CAA 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 CAA. Accordingly, this action
merely approves state law as meeting
Federal requirements and does not
impose additional requirements beyond

43001
Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 141 / Monday, July 23, 2012 / Rules and Regulations
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 CAA; 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.
B. Submission to Congress and the
Comptroller General
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).
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
pertaining to the amendments of the
Code of Maryland to adopt EPA’s CTG
for lithographic printing and letterpress
printing, may not be challenged later in
proceedings to enforce its requirements.

In this
document the EPA is amending
appendix IX to part 261 to reflect a
change in the ownership and name of a
particular facility. Today’s notice
documents the transfer of ownership
and name change by updating appendix
IX to incorporate the change in owner’s
name for the ConocoPhillips Billings,
Montana Refinery. On May 3, 2012, the
EPA was notified that ownership of the
Billings, Montana Refinery had been
transferred to Phillips 66 Company.
Phillips 66 Company certified that the
management and operation of the
Billings Refinery has not changed due to
the restructuring. This notice
documents the change by updating
appendix IX to incorporate a change in
name.
These changes to appendix IX of part
261 are effective July 23, 2012. The
Hazardous and Solid Waste
Amendments of 1984 amended section
3010 of the Resource Conservation and
Recovery Act (RCRA) to allow rules to
become effective in less than six months
when the regulated community does not
need the six-month period to come into
compliance. As described above, the
change in ownership will not affect the
refineries operations. Therefore, a sixmonth delay in the effective date is not
necessary in this case. This provides the
basis for making this amendment

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
On May 14, 2012 (77 FR 28336), EPA published a notice of proposed
rulemaking (NPR) for the State of Maryland. The NPR proposed approval
of amendments to COMAR 26.11.19.11, Lithographic and Letterpress
Printing. The amendments adopt EPA's CTG for lithographic and
letterpress printing. The formal SIP revision (11-09) was
submitted by the Maryland Department of the Environment (MDE) on
December 15, 2011. Additional background information behind this SIP
revision is discussed in detail in the NPR.
II. Summary of SIP Revision
This SIP revision consists of amendments to COMAR 26.11.19.11 to
adopt a new CTG for offset lithographic printers and letterpress
printers, entitled Control Techniques Guidelines for Offset
Lithographic Printing and Letterpress Printing (see EPA 453/R-06-002).
A detailed summary of EPA's review of and rationale for approving this
SIP revision may be found in the TSD for this action which is available
in the docket. No public comments were received on the NPR.
III. Final Action
EPA is approving the Maryland SIP revision which adopts the CTG
standards for offset lithographic printing and letterpress printing
into the Code of Maryland.
IV. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
A. General Requirements
Under the CAA, the Administrator is required to approve a SIP
submission that complies with the provisions of the CAA 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 CAA. Accordingly, this
action merely approves state law as meeting Federal requirements and
does not impose additional requirements beyond
[[Page 43001]]
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 CAA; 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.
B. Submission to Congress and the Comptroller General
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).
C. Petitions for Judicial Review
Under section 307(b)(1) of the CAA, petitions for judicial review
of this action must be filed in the United States Court of Appeals for
the appropriate circuit by September 21, 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 pertaining to the amendments of the Code of
Maryland to adopt EPA's CTG for lithographic printing and letterpress
printing, may not be challenged later in proceedings to enforce its
requirements. (See section 307(b)(2) of the CAA.)
