ACTION: Correcting amendments.
Register approving Georgia State
Implementation Plan (SIP) revisions,
submitted through the Georgia
Environmental Protection Division (GA
EPD), related to reasonably available
control technology (RACT)
requirements. This correcting
amendment corrects errors in the nonregulatory Code of Federal Regulations
(CFR) language portion of the September
28, 2012, final approval. Specifically,
this correction pertains to negative
declarations made by GA EPD in its
October 21, 2009, SIP submittal for
certain source categories for which EPA
has issued control technique guidelines
(CTG). EPA’s September 28, 2012, final
rulemaking addressing Georgia’s RACT
revisions, approved the negative
declarations; however, they were
inadvertently omitted from the actual
CFR non-regulatory language at the end
of the final action.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This
action corrects an inadvertent omission
in EPA’s September 28, 2012, final
action approving Georgia’s RACT
submittals. On October 21, 2009,
Georgia submitted a SIP revision
containing, among other things, the
Atlanta Area RACT SIP. In this RACT
submittal Georgia lists CTG source
categories for which Georgia has rules or
has made negative declarations.1 On
July 31, 2012 (77 FR 45307), EPA
proposed approval of Georgia’s October
21, 2009, SIP revision, including the
negative declarations included therein.
In EPA’s September 28, 2012, final
action (77 FR 59554), EPA approved
Georgia’s October 21, 2009, submission,
including the list of Georgia rules and
negative declarations. Towards the end
of the September 28, 2012, final action,
EPA inadvertently omitted the list of
negative declarations in the CFR nonregulatory language. Today’s correcting

(SOCMI) EPA–450/4–91–031, August
1993.

4. Control of VOC Emissions from Air
Oxidation Processes in SOCMI, EPA–
450/3–84–015, December 1984.
EPA has determined that today’s
correcting action falls under the ‘‘good
cause’’ exemption in section
553(b)(3)(B) of the Administrative
Procedure Act (APA) which, upon
finding ‘‘good cause,’’ authorizes
agencies to dispense with public
participation where public notice and
comment procedures are impracticable,
unnecessary, or contrary to the public
interest. Public notice and comment for
this action is unnecessary because
today’s action simply makes a
correction to a previous inadvertent
omission in the non-regulatory text of
the CFR. EPA previously provided for
public notice and comment on the
substantive SIP revision approval. In
addition, EPA does not believe the
public would be interested in
commenting on the correction prior to
this action being finalized, since this
correction action does not change the
conclusion of EPA’s analysis or action
addressing approval of the Georgia
RACT rules.
EPA also finds that there is good
cause under APA section 553(d)(3) for
this correction to become effective on
the date of publication of this action.
Section 553(d)(3) of the APA allows an
effective date less than 30 days after
publication ‘‘as otherwise provided by
the agency for good cause found and
published with the rule.’’ 5 U.S.C.
553(d)(3). The purpose of the 30-day
waiting period prescribed in APA
section 553(d)(3) is to give affected
parties a reasonable time to adjust their
behavior and prepare before the final
rule takes effect. Today’s rule, however,
does not create any new regulatory
requirements such that affected parties
would need time to prepare before the
rule takes effect. Rather, today’s action
simply corrects an inadvertent omission
in the CFR of a small portion of a SIP
revision that EPA previously
substantively approved. For these

reasons, EPA finds good cause under
APA section 553(d)(3) for this correction
to become effective on the date of
publication of this action.
Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
Under Executive Order 12866 (58 FR
51735, October 4, 1993), this action is
not a ‘‘significant regulatory action’’ and
therefore is not subject to review by the
Office of Management and Budget. For
this reason, this action is also not
subject to Executive Order 13211,
‘‘Actions Concerning Regulations That
Significantly Affect Energy Supply,
Distribution, or Use’’ (66 FR 28355, May
22, 2001). This action merely explicitly
lists the CTG source categories for
which Georgia made a negative
declaration, is consistent with the
substantive revisions to the Georgia SIP
described in the final approval of the
Georgia RACT SIP revisions and
imposes no additional requirements
beyond those imposed by state law.
Accordingly, the Administrator certifies
that this rule will not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial
number of small entities under the
Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601
et seq.). Because this rule merely
corrects an inadvertent omission for the
non-regulatory text of EPA’s September
28, 2012, final rule addressing the
approval of the Georgia’s RACT SIP, and
does not impose any additional
enforceable duty beyond that required
by state law, it does not contain any
unfunded mandate or significantly or
uniquely affect small governments, as
described in the Unfunded Mandates
Reform Act of 1995 (Public Law 104–4).
This rule also does not have tribal
implications because it will not have a
substantial direct effect on one or more
Indian tribes, on the relationship
between the federal Government and
Indian tribes, or on the distribution of
power and responsibilities between the
federal Government and Indian tribes,
as specified by Executive Order 13175
(65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000). This
rule also does not have Federalism
implications because it does not have
substantial direct effects on the states,
on the relationship between the national
government and the states, or on the
distribution of power and
responsibilities among the various
levels of government, as specified in
Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255,
August 10, 1999). This rule merely
corrects an inadvertent omission for the
non-regulatory text of EPA’s September
28, 2012, final rule addressing the
approval of the Georgia RACT SIP, and
does not alter the relationship or the
distribution of power and
responsibilities established in the CAA.
This rule also is not subject to Executive
Order 13045 ‘‘Protection of Children
from Environmental Health Risks and
Safety Risks’’ (62 FR 19885, April 23,
1997), because it is not economically
significant. In addition, this rule does
not involve technical standards, thus
the requirements of section 12(d) of the
National Technology Transfer and
Advancement Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C.
272 note) do not apply. This rule also
does not impose an information
collection burden under the provisions
of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.).
The Congressional Review Act, 5
U.S.C. section 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 rule 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).

ACTION: Correcting amendments.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: On September 28, 2012, EPA published a final rule in the
Federal Register approving Georgia State Implementation Plan (SIP)
revisions, submitted through the Georgia Environmental Protection
Division (GA EPD), related to reasonably available control technology
(RACT) requirements. This correcting amendment corrects errors in the
non-regulatory Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) language portion of
the September 28, 2012, final approval. Specifically, this correction
pertains to negative declarations made by GA EPD in its October 21,
2009, SIP submittal for certain source categories for which EPA has
issued control technique guidelines (CTG). EPA's September 28, 2012,
final rulemaking addressing Georgia's RACT revisions, approved the
negative declarations; however, they were inadvertently omitted from
the actual CFR non-regulatory language at the end of the final action.
DATES: Effective on March 19, 2013.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This action corrects an inadvertent omission
in EPA's September 28, 2012, final action approving Georgia's RACT
submittals. On October 21, 2009, Georgia submitted a SIP revision
containing, among other things, the Atlanta Area RACT SIP. In this RACT
submittal Georgia lists CTG source categories for which Georgia has
rules or has made negative declarations.\1\ On July 31, 2012 (77 FR
45307), EPA proposed approval of Georgia's October 21, 2009, SIP
revision, including the negative declarations included therein. In
EPA's September 28, 2012, final action (77 FR 59554), EPA approved
Georgia's October 21, 2009, submission, including the list of Georgia
rules and negative declarations. Towards the end of the September 28,
2012, final action, EPA inadvertently omitted the list of negative
declarations in the CFR non-regulatory language. Today's correcting
amendment will correct the CFR non-regulatory language to include the
following information. Georgia made negative declarations in its
October 21, 2009, SIP submittal related to the following CTG source
categories:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ If no major sources of volatile organic compounds (VOC) or
nitrous oxides emissions (each pollutant should be considered
separately) in a particular source category exist in an applicable
nonattainment area, a state may submit a negative declaration for
that category.

2. Control of VOC Emissions from Equipment Leaks from Natural Gas/

4. Control of VOC Emissions from Air Oxidation Processes in SOCMI,

EPA has determined that today's correcting action falls under the
``good cause'' exemption in section 553(b)(3)(B) of the Administrative
Procedure Act (APA) which, upon finding ``good cause,'' authorizes
agencies to dispense with public participation where public notice and
comment procedures are impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to the
public interest. Public notice and comment for this action is
unnecessary because today's action simply makes a correction to a
previous inadvertent omission in the non-regulatory text of the CFR.
EPA previously provided for public notice and comment on the
substantive SIP revision approval. In addition, EPA does not believe
the public would be interested in commenting on the correction prior to
this action being finalized, since this correction action does not
change the conclusion of EPA's analysis or action addressing approval
of the Georgia RACT rules.
EPA also finds that there is good cause under APA section 553(d)(3)
for this correction to become effective on the date of publication of
this action. Section 553(d)(3) of the APA allows an effective date less
than 30 days after publication ``as otherwise provided by the agency
for good cause found and published with the rule.'' 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3).
The purpose of the 30-day waiting period prescribed in APA section
553(d)(3) is to give affected parties a reasonable time to adjust their
behavior and prepare before the final rule takes effect. Today's rule,
however, does not create any new regulatory requirements such that
affected parties would need time to prepare before the rule takes
effect. Rather, today's action simply corrects an inadvertent omission
in the CFR of a small portion of a SIP revision that EPA previously
substantively approved. For these
[[Page 16784]]
reasons, EPA finds good cause under APA section 553(d)(3) for this
correction to become effective on the date of publication of this
action.
Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
Under Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993), this
action is not a ``significant regulatory action'' and therefore is not
subject to review by the Office of Management and Budget. For this
reason, this action is also not subject to Executive Order 13211,
``Actions Concerning Regulations That Significantly Affect Energy
Supply, Distribution, or Use'' (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001). This action
merely explicitly lists the CTG source categories for which Georgia
made a negative declaration, is consistent with the substantive
revisions to the Georgia SIP described in the final approval of the
Georgia RACT SIP revisions and imposes no additional requirements
beyond those imposed by state law. Accordingly, the Administrator
certifies that this rule will not have a significant economic impact on
a substantial number of small entities under the Regulatory Flexibility
Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.). Because this rule merely corrects an
inadvertent omission for the non-regulatory text of EPA's September 28,
2012, final rule addressing the approval of the Georgia's RACT SIP, and
does not impose any additional enforceable duty beyond that required by
state law, it does not contain any unfunded mandate or significantly or
uniquely affect small governments, as described in the Unfunded
Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (Public Law 104-4).
This rule also does not have tribal implications because it will
not have a substantial direct effect on one or more Indian tribes, on
the relationship between the federal Government and Indian tribes, or
on the distribution of power and responsibilities between the federal
Government and Indian tribes, as specified by Executive Order 13175 (65
FR 67249, November 9, 2000). This rule also does not have Federalism
implications because it does not have substantial direct effects on the
states, on the relationship between the national government and the
states, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the
various levels of government, as specified in Executive Order 13132 (64
FR 43255, August 10, 1999). This rule merely corrects an inadvertent
omission for the non-regulatory text of EPA's September 28, 2012, final
rule addressing the approval of the Georgia RACT SIP, and does not
alter the relationship or the distribution of power and
responsibilities established in the CAA. This rule also is not subject
to Executive Order 13045 ``Protection of Children from Environmental
Health Risks and Safety Risks'' (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997), because
it is not economically significant. In addition, this rule does not
involve technical standards, thus the requirements of section 12(d) of
the National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C.
272 note) do not apply. This rule also does not impose an information
collection burden under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act
of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.).
The Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. section 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
rule 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).
