Approval and Promulgation of Air

Attainment of the 1997 8-Hour Ozone

Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
EPA is making two separate
and independent determinations
regarding the Pittsburgh-Beaver Valley
1997 8-hour ozone nonattainment area
(the Pittsburgh Area). First, EPA is
making a determination that the
Pittsburgh Area attained the 1997 8hour ozone national ambient air quality
standard (NAAQS) by the applicable
attainment date of June 15, 2010. This
determination is based upon complete,
quality assured, and certified ambient
air monitoring data for the 2007–2009
monitoring period showing monitored
attainment of the 1997 8-hour ozone
NAAQS. Second, EPA is making a
determination that the Pittsburgh Area
is attaining the 1997 8-hour ozone
NAAQS, based on complete, quality
assured, and certified ambient air
monitoring data for the 2009–2011
monitoring period, and preliminary data
for 2012. This final determination
suspends the requirement for the

SUMMARY:
VerDate Mar<15>2010

Jkt 229001
Pittsburgh Area to submit an attainment
demonstration, reasonably available
control measures (RACM), a reasonable
further progress (RFP) plan, and
contingency measures related to
attainment of the 1997 8-hour ozone
NAAQS for so long as the area
continues to attain that NAAQS. These
determinations do not constitute a
redesignation to attainment. The
Pittsburgh Area will remain designated
nonattainment for the 1997 8-hour
ozone NAAQS until such time as EPA
determines that the Pittsburgh Area
meets the Clean Air Act (CAA)
requirements for redesignation to
attainment, including an approved
maintenance plan. These actions are
being taken under the CAA.
DATES: This final rule is effective on
May 6, 2013.
ADDRESSES: EPA has established a
docket for this action under Docket ID
Number EPA–R03–OAR–2012–0409. All

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
On December 10, 2012 (77 FR 73387),
EPA published a notice of proposed
rulemaking (NPR) for the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. In the
December 10, 2012 rulemaking action,
EPA proposed to determine that the
Pittsburgh Area attained the 1997 8hour ozone NAAQS by its attainment
date, June 15, 2010. EPA also proposed
to make a clean data determination,
finding that the Pittsburgh Area has
attained the 1997 8-hour ozone NAAQS.
No comments were received on the
December 10, 2012 NPR.
II. Summary of SIP Revision
These actions do not constitute a
redesignation of the Pittsburgh Area to
attainment for the 1997 8-hour ozone
PO 00000
Frm 00018
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
NAAQS under CAA section 107(d)(3).
Neither determination of attainment
involves approving a maintenance plan
for the Pittsburgh Area, nor determines
that the Pittsburgh Area has met all the
requirements for redesignation under
the CAA, including that the attainment
be due to permanent and enforceable
measures. Therefore, the designation
status of the Pittsburgh Area will remain
nonattainment for the 1997 8-hour
ozone NAAQS until such time as EPA
takes final rulemaking action to
determine that the Pittsburgh Area
meets the CAA requirements for
redesignation to attainment.
A. Determination of Attainment by the
Attainment Date
EPA is making a determination that
the Pittsburgh Area attained the 1997 8hour ozone NAAQS by its applicable
attainment date of June 15, 2010. This
determination is based upon complete,
quality assured and certified ambient air
monitoring data for the 2007–2009
monitoring period, which is the last full
three-year period prior to the June 15,
2010 attainment date. The 2007–2009
data show that the Pittsburgh Area
monitored attainment of the 1997 8hour ozone NAAQS. The effect of a final
determination of attainment by the
Pittsburgh Area’s attainment date is to
discharge EPA’s obligation under CAA
section 181(b)(2) to determine, based on
the Pittsburgh Area’s air quality as of
the attainment date, whether the area
attained the standard by that date and
to establish that the Pittsburgh Area will
not be reclassified.
B. ‘‘Clean Data’’ Determination of
Attainment
EPA is also making a determination
that the Pittsburgh Area has attained the
1997 8-hour ozone NAAQS. This
determination is based upon complete,
quality assured and certified ambient air
monitoring data that show the
Pittsburgh Area has monitored
attainment of the 1997 8-hour ozone
NAAQS for the 2009–2011 monitoring
period. Preliminary data for 2012 are
consistent with continued attainment.
Under the provisions of EPA’s
implementation rule for the 1997 8-hour
NAAQS (see 40 CFR 51.918), a final
determination of attainment suspends
the CAA requirements for the Pittsburgh
Area to submit an attainment
demonstration and the associated RFP
plan, contingency measures, RACM
analysis, and any other planning
requirements related to attainment of
the 1997 8-hour ozone NAAQS required
for moderate areas under subpart 2 of
the CAA. This suspension would
remain in effect until such time, if any,
