reasonable further progress, or any other
applicable requirement of the Act.
As described in section III above, EPA
believes that the proposed revisions to
Wisconsin’s SIP meet Federal
requirements and will not interfere with
attainment or reasonable further
progress. Sources exempt from
obtaining a construction permit will
continue to be subject to all applicable
requirements and compliance
demonstration methods per Wisconsin’s
air pollution regulations. Sources that
receive a permit exemption will still be
required to undergo a control
technology review during operation
permit initial issuance, renewal, or
revision as appropriate. All sources will
be required to conduct monitoring and
maintain records sufficient to
demonstrate compliance with
Wisconsin’s regulatory requirements.
Additionally, any source required to
submit an air emission inventory report
of annual actual emissions above
thresholds in NR 438, will still be
required to submit this report.
Furthermore, since an exemption from
the requirement to obtain a construction
permit does not exempt the facility from
meeting the air quality standards and
increments, all exempt sources will be
included in any analysis of increment
consumption at nearby facilities as
required in NR 406.07.
V. What action is EPA taking on this
submittal?
EPA is proposing to approve revisions
to Wisconsin rules NR 406 and 410,
submitted by the State on April 23,
2008. The SIP revisions submitted,
described in section II, above, are
consistent with Federal regulations
governing state permitting programs.
See section III, above. EPA is also
soliciting comment on this proposed
approval.

VI. Statutory and Executive Order
Reviews
Under the Act, the Administrator is
required to approve a SIP submission
that complies with the provisions of the
Act 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 Act. 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
VerDate Mar<15>2010
16:56 May 14, 2013
Jkt 229001
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 Act; 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.
