In a direct
final rule published in the Federal
Register on March 6, 2012, 77 FR 13195,
VA amended 38 CFR 17.108 to
eliminate copayments for in-home video
telehealth. VA published a companion
substantially identical proposed rule at
77 FR 13236 on the same date to serve
as a proposal for the provisions in the
direct final rule in case adverse
comments were received. The direct
final rule and proposed rule each
provided a 30-day comment period that
ended on April 5, 2012. No adverse
comments were received. Two
comments that supported the
rulemaking were received from
members of the general public.
Under the direct final rule procedures
that were described in 77 FR 13195 and
77 FR 13236, the direct final rule
became effective on May 7, 2012,
because no significant adverse
comments were received within the
comment period. In a companion
document in this issue of the Federal
Register, VA is withdrawing the
proposed rulemaking, RIN 2900–AO27,
published at 77 FR 13236, as
unnecessary.

III. Final Action
EPA is approving as a revision to the
Delaware SIP the revisions to 7 DE
Administrative Code 1124, sections 2.0,
12.0, 19.0, 20.0, and 22.0 for the control
of VOC emissions from plastic parts,
metal furniture, large appliances, and
miscellaneous metal parts. This SIP
revision meets the requirements to
implement RACT controls on emission
sources.
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
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 November 26, 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 approving Delaware’s
control of VOCs from plastic parts,
metal furniture, large appliances, and
miscellaneous metal parts may not be
challenged later in proceedings to
enforce its requirements. (See section
307(b)(2).)

I. Background
On September 1, 2011 (76 FR 54410),
EPA published a notice of proposed
rulemaking (NPR) for the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. The
NPR proposed approval of
Pennsylvania’s submittals that provide
the infrastructure elements specified in
CAA section 110(a)(2)(A), (B), (C), (D),
(E), (F), (G), (H), (J), (K), (L), and (M), or
portions thereof, necessary to
implement, maintain, and enforce the
1997 8-hour ozone and PM2.5 NAAQS
and the 2006 PM2.5 NAAQS. The
submittals by the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania dated December 7, 2007
and June 6, 2008 addressed the section
110(a)(2) requirements for the 1997 8hour ozone NAAQS. The submittals
dated December 7, 2007, June 6, 2008,
and April 26, 2010 addressed the
section 110(a)(2) requirements for the
1997 PM2.5 NAAQS. Finally, the
submittals dated April 26, 2010 and
May 24, 2011 addressed the section
110(a)(2) requirements for the 2006
PM2.5 NAAQS.
II. Summary of SIP Revision
The submittals referenced in the
Background section above address the
infrastructure elements specified in
CAA section 110(a)(2) as applicable.
These submittals provide for the
implementation, maintenance, and
enforcement of the 1997 8-hour ozone
NAAQS, the 1997 PM2.5 NAAQS, and
the 2006 PM2.5 NAAQS. The rationale

SUMMARY: EPA is approving revisions to the Delaware State
Implementation Plan (SIP) submitted by the State of Delaware through
the Delaware Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control
(DNREC). The revisions amend Delaware's regulation for the Control of
Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) for sources covered by EPA's Control
Techniques Guidelines (CTG) standards for the following categories:
Plastic Parts, Metal Furniture, Large Appliances, and Miscellaneous
Metal Parts. EPA is approving this SIP revision to meet the
requirements to implement reasonably available control technology

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
On July 13, 2012 (77 FR 41337), EPA published a notice of proposed
rulemaking (NPR) for the State of Delaware. The NPR proposed approval
of the Delaware SIP revision that amends Regulation No. 1124, Control
of Volatile Organic Compounds, sections 2.0 ``Definitions,'' 12.0
``Surface Coating of Plastic Parts,'' 19.0 ``Coating of Metal
Furniture,'' 20.0 ``Coating of Large Appliances,'' and 22.0 ``Coating
of Miscellaneous Metal Parts,'' to incorporate the requirements of
EPA's CTGs. CTGs are documents issued by EPA that provide guidance to
states concerning what types of controls could constitute RACT for VOC
from various sources, including the coating of plastic parts, metal
furniture, large appliances, and miscellaneous metal parts. EPA
requires all ozone nonattainment areas to update regulations for
emission sources covered in an EPA CTG and to submit the regulations to
EPA for approval as SIP revisions. These amendments will reduce the VOC
content of currently regulated coatings, regulate additional coating
categories, require the use of coating application equipment that
provides for high transfer efficiency, and require that clean-up
solvent emissions be included in regulatory applicability
determinations. EPA received no comments on the NPR to approve
Delaware's SIP revision. The formal SIP revision was submitted by the
State of Delaware on April 1, 2010 and March 9, 2012.
II. Summary of SIP Revision
The SIP revision consists of the following revisions to Delaware's
Regulation No. 1124: (1) Amendments to section 2.0--Definitions, which
adds definitions; (2) amendments to section 12.0--Surface Coating of
Plastic Parts, which establishes applicability for every owner or
operator of any plastic parts or products coating units, adds, revises,
and deletes definitions, specifies standards and exemptions, and
specifies control devices, test methods, compliance certification,
recordkeeping, and reporting requirements; (3) amendments to section
19.0--Coating of Metal Furniture, which establishes applicability to
every owner or operator of any metal furniture coating unit, revises a
definition, specifies standards and exemptions, and specifies control
devices, test methods, compliance certification, recordkeeping, and
reporting requirements; (4) amendments to section 20.0--Coating of
Large Appliances, which establishes
[[Page 58954]]
applicability to every owner or operator of any large appliance coating
unit, revises a definition, specifies standards and exemptions, and
specifies control devices, test methods, compliance certification,
recordkeeping, and reporting requirements; and (5) amendments to
section 22.0--Coating of Miscellaneous Metal Parts, which establishes
applicability to every owner or operator of any miscellaneous metal
parts and products coating unit, adds, revises, and deletes
definitions, specifies standards and exemptions, and specifies control
devices, test methods, compliance certification, recordkeeping, and
reporting requirements. Other specific requirements and the rationale
for EPA's proposed action are explained in the NPR and will not be
restated here.
III. Final Action
EPA is approving as a revision to the Delaware SIP the revisions to
7 DE Administrative Code 1124, sections 2.0, 12.0, 19.0, 20.0, and 22.0
for the control of VOC emissions from plastic parts, metal furniture,
large appliances, and miscellaneous metal parts. This SIP revision
meets the requirements to implement RACT controls on emission sources.
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 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 November 26, 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 approving Delaware's control of VOCs from plastic
parts, metal furniture, large appliances, and miscellaneous metal parts
may not be challenged later in proceedings to enforce its requirements.
(See section 307(b)(2).)
