VI. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
I. What is EPA approving?
EPA is approving new MOVES2010abased budgets for the Lake and Porter
County, Indiana 1997 8-hour ozone
maintenance area and the 1997 annual
PM2.5 maintenance area that will replace
MOBILE-based budgets in the SIP. The
Lake and Porter County, Indiana area
was redesignated to attainment of the
1997 8-hour ozone standard effective
May 11, 2010 (75 FR 26113). The Lake
and Porter County, Indiana area was
redesignated to attainment of the 1997
annual PM2.5 standard effective
February 6, 2012 (76 FR 76302).
MOBILE6.2-based budgets were
approved in those actions. Upon the
effective date of approval of the
MOVES-based budgets, they must then
be used in future transportation
conformity analyses for the area as
required by section 176(c) of the CAA.
See the official release of the
MOVES2010 emissions model (75 FR
9411–9414) for background and section
II.(c) below for details.
II. What is the Background for this
action?
a. SIP Budgets and Transportation
Conformity
Under the CAA, states are required to
submit, at various times, control strategy
SIP revisions and maintenance plans for
nonattainment and maintenance areas
for a given National Ambient Air
Quality Standard (NAAQS). These SIP
revisions and maintenance plans
include budgets of on-road mobile
source emissions for criteria pollutants
and/or their precursors. Transportation
plans and projects ‘‘conform’’ to (i.e.,
are consistent with) the SIP when they
will not cause or contribute to air
quality violations, delay timely
attainment of the NAAQS, or delay an
interim milestone.
b. Prior Approval of Budgets
EPA previously approved
MOBILE6.2-based volatile organic
compounds (VOC) and nitrogen oxides
(NOX) budgets for the Lake and Porter
County 8-hour ozone maintenance area,
as well as NOX and direct PM budgets
for the Lake and Porter County 1997
annual PM2.5 nonattainment area. The
ozone maintenance plan established
2010 and 2020 budgets for the area that
demonstrated a reduction in emissions
from the monitored attainment year and
included a margin of safety. The PM2.5
maintenance plan established budgets
for 2025 for the area.
c. The MOVES Emissions Model
The MOVES model is EPA’s state-ofthe-art tool for estimating highway
emissions. EPA announced the release
of MOVES2010 in March 2010 (75 FR
9411). Use of the MOVES model is
required for regional emissions analyses
for transportation conformity
determinations outside of California that
begin after March 2, 2013.
MOVES2010a was used to estimate
emissions in the same milestone years
as the original budgets in the SIP. IDEM
is revising the budgets using the latest
planning assumptions including
population and employment updates. In
addition, newer vehicle registration data
has been used to update the age
distribution of the vehicle fleet.
Updating the budgets with
MOVES2010a allows the area to
continue to show conformity to the SIP
in plans, transportation improvement
programs, and projects. The interagency
consultation group has had extensive
consultation on the requirements and
need for new budgets.
d. Submission of New Budgets Based on
MOVES2010a
On February 1, 2013, IDEM submitted
replacement budgets based on
MOVES2010a for the Lake and Porter
County area. IDEM provided public
review and comment for these budgets,
which ended on January 25, 2013. There
were no comments.
IDEM has also provided total
emissions, including mobile emissions
based on MOVES2010a, for the
attainment year of 2006, the interim
year 2010 and the 2020 maintenance
year (as shown in table 1). The
combined emissions reduction for each
pollutant is the reduction in emissions
from the base year (in this case the 2006
attainment year) to the final year of the
maintenance plan (in this case the 2020
year). The total emissions include point,
area, non-road and on-road mobile
sources.

IDEM has added only a small portion
of the combined emissions reduction
available for use in NOX and VOC
budgets for 2010 and 2020. As shown in
table 1, the submittal demonstrates that
the area’s emissions decline from the
attainment year of 2006 to maintain the
1997 8-hour ozone standard.
No additional control measures were
needed to maintain the 1997 ozone
standard in the Lake and Porter County
area. An appropriate safety margin for
NOX and VOCs was selected by the
interagency consultation group, which
consists of representatives from the
2010

Federal Highway Administration, the
Indiana Department of Transportation,
IDEM, and EPA. The on-road
MOVES2010a based budgets for ozone

Indiana has added only a small
portion of the combined emissions
reduction available for use in NOX and
PM2.5 budgets for 2015 and 2025. As
shown in table 3, the reduction in
emissions between 2008 and 2025
demonstrates that the area will continue
to maintain the 1997 annual PM2.5
standard.
No additional control measures were
needed to maintain the 1997 annual
PM2.5 standard in the Lake and Porter
County area. An appropriate safety
margin for NOX and PM2.5 was decided
by the interagency consultation group.
The on-road MOVES2010a based

III. What are the Criteria for approval?
EPA requires that revisions to existing
SIPs and budgets continue to meet
applicable requirements (e.g., RFP,
attainment, or maintenance). The SIP
must also meet any applicable SIP
requirements under CAA section 110. In
addition, adequacy criteria found at 40
CFR 93.118(e)(4) must be satisfied
before EPA can find submitted budgets
adequate and approve them for
conformity purposes.
Areas can revise their budgets and
inventories using MOVES without
revising their entire SIP if: (1) The SIP
continues to meet applicable
requirements when the previous motor
vehicle emissions inventories are

IV. What Is EPA’s analysis of the State’s
submittal?
a. The Revised Inventories
The February 1, 2013, SIP revision
requests for the Lake and Porter County
1997 ozone maintenance area and the
1997 annual PM2.5 area seek to revise
only the on-road mobile source
inventories. IDEM has certified that the
control strategies remain the same as in
the original SIP, and that no other
control strategies are necessary. IDEM
also finds that growth and control
strategy assumptions for sources other
than on-road have not changed
significantly from the original submittal.
This is confirmed by the monitoring
data for the Lake and Porter County
area, which continues to monitor
attainment for the 1997 8-hour ozone

Budgets
b. Approvability of the MOVES2010aBased Budgets
TKELLEY on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with RULES
standard and the 1997 annual PM2.5
standard.
When we finalize the approval of the
revised budgets, the state’s existing
MOBILE6.2-based budgets will no
longer be applicable for transportation
conformity purposes.
EPA evaluated the MOVES-based
budgets submitted on February 1, 2013,
using the adequacy criteria found in 40
CFR 93.118(e)(4) and our in-depth
evaluation of the state’s submittal and
SIP requirements. Before submitting the
revised budgets, Indiana followed all
necessary conformity procedures. The
budgets are clearly identified and
precisely quantified in the submittal.
The budgets, when considered with
other emissions sources, are consistent
with continued maintenance of the 1997
ozone standard. The budgets are clearly
related to the emissions inventory and
control measures in the SIP. The
changes from the previous budgets are
clearly explained with the change in the
model from MOBILE6.2 to
MOVES2010a and the revised and
updated planning assumptions. The
inputs to the model are detailed in the
Appendix to the submittal. EPA has
reviewed the inputs to the
MOVES2010a modeling and
participated in the consultation process.
The Federal Highway Administration—
Indiana Division and the Indiana
Department of Transportation have
taken a lead role in working with the
Northwestern Indiana Regional
Planning Commission to provide
accurate, timely information and inputs
to the MOVES2010a model runs. The
state has documented that growth and
control strategy assumptions for nonmotor vehicle sources (i.e. area, nonroad, and point) continue to be valid
and any minor updates do not change
the overall conclusions of the SIP.
IDEM’s submission confirms that the
SIP continues to demonstrate
maintenance of the 1997 ozone standard
and annual PM2.5 standard because the
total emissions in the revised SIP
(including MOVES2010a emissions for
mobile sources) decrease from the
attainment year to the last year of the
maintenance plan, as shown in tables 1
and 3. The budgets include an
appropriate margin of safety while still
maintaining total emissions below the
attainment level.
Based on our review of the February
1, 2013, submittal, EPA has determined
that the SIP will continue to meet its
requirements if the revised motor
vehicle emissions inventories are
replaced with MOVES2010a
inventories.

V. What action is EPA taking?
EPA is approving MOVES2010a-based
budgets for the Lake and Porter County,
Indiana 1997 8-hour ozone maintenance
area and 1997 annual PM2.5
maintenance area as submitted on
February 1, 2013. We are publishing this
action without prior proposal because
we view this as a noncontroversial
amendment and anticipate no adverse
comments. However, in the proposed
rules section of this Federal Register
publication, we are publishing a
separate document that will serve as the
proposal to approve the state plan if
relevant adverse written comments are
filed. This rule will be effective July 15,
2013 without further notice unless we
receive relevant adverse written
comments by June 14, 2013. If we
receive such comments, we will
withdraw this action before the effective
date by publishing a subsequent
document that will withdraw the final
action. All public comments received
will then be addressed in a subsequent
final rule based on the proposed action.
EPA will not institute a second
comment period. Any parties interested
in commenting on this action should do
so at this time. Please note that if EPA
receives adverse comment on an
amendment, paragraph, or section of
this rule and if that provision may be
severed from the remainder of the rule,
EPA may adopt as final those provisions
of the rule that are not the subject of an
adverse comment. If we do not receive
any comments, this action will be
effective July 15, 2013.
VI. Statutory and Executive Order
Reviews
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
PO 00000
Frm 00040
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
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.
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).

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 July 15, 2013. 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. Parties with objections to this

ACTION: Direct final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: EPA is approving Indiana's request to revise the Lake and
Porter Counties State Implementation Plans (SIPs) for the 1997 8-hour
ozone standard, and the 1997 annual fine particulate matter
(PM2.5) standard to replace the previously approved motor
vehicle emissions budgets (budgets) with budgets developed using EPA's
Motor Vehicle Emissions Simulator (MOVES) 2010a emissions model. The
Indiana Department of Environmental Management (IDEM) submitted these
requests to EPA with submittal letters dated February 1, 2013.
DATES: This direct final rule will be effective July 15, 2013, unless
EPA receives adverse comments by June 14, 2013. If adverse comments are
received, EPA will publish a timely withdrawal of the direct final rule
in the Federal Register informing the public that the rule will not
take effect.

VI. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
I. What is EPA approving?
EPA is approving new MOVES2010a-based budgets for the Lake and
Porter County, Indiana 1997 8-hour ozone maintenance area and the 1997
annual PM2.5 maintenance area that will replace MOBILE-based
budgets in the SIP. The Lake and Porter County, Indiana area was
redesignated to attainment of the 1997 8-hour ozone standard effective
May 11, 2010 (75 FR 26113). The Lake and Porter County, Indiana area
was redesignated to attainment of the 1997 annual PM2.5
standard effective February 6, 2012 (76 FR 76302). MOBILE6.2-based
budgets were approved in those actions. Upon the effective date of
approval of the MOVES-based budgets, they must then be used in future
transportation conformity analyses for the area as required by section
176(c) of the CAA. See the official release of the MOVES2010 emissions
model (75 FR 9411-9414) for background and section II.(c) below for
details.
II. What is the Background for this action?
a. SIP Budgets and Transportation Conformity
Under the CAA, states are required to submit, at various times,
control strategy SIP revisions and maintenance plans for nonattainment
and maintenance areas for a given National Ambient Air Quality Standard
(NAAQS). These SIP revisions and maintenance plans include budgets of
on-road mobile source emissions for criteria pollutants and/or their
precursors. Transportation plans and projects ``conform'' to (i.e., are
consistent with) the SIP when they will not cause or contribute to air
quality violations, delay timely attainment of the NAAQS, or delay an
interim milestone.
b. Prior Approval of Budgets
EPA previously approved MOBILE6.2-based volatile organic compounds
(VOC) and nitrogen oxides (NOX) budgets for the Lake and
Porter County 8-hour ozone maintenance area, as well as NOX
and direct PM budgets for the Lake and Porter County 1997 annual
PM2.5 nonattainment area. The ozone maintenance plan
established 2010 and 2020 budgets for the area that demonstrated a
reduction in emissions from the monitored attainment year and included
a margin of safety. The PM2.5 maintenance plan established
budgets for 2025 for the area.
c. The MOVES Emissions Model
The MOVES model is EPA's state-of-the-art tool for estimating
highway emissions. EPA announced the release of MOVES2010 in March 2010
(75 FR 9411). Use of the MOVES model is required for regional emissions
analyses for transportation conformity determinations outside of
California that begin after March 2, 2013.
MOVES2010a was used to estimate emissions in the same milestone
years as the original budgets in the SIP. IDEM is revising the budgets
using the latest planning assumptions including population and
employment updates. In addition, newer vehicle registration data has
been used to update the age distribution of the vehicle fleet. Updating
the budgets with MOVES2010a allows the area to continue to show
conformity to the SIP in plans, transportation improvement programs,
and projects. The interagency consultation group has had extensive
consultation on the requirements and need for new budgets.
d. Submission of New Budgets Based on MOVES2010a
On February 1, 2013, IDEM submitted replacement budgets based on
MOVES2010a for the Lake and Porter County area. IDEM provided public
review and comment for these budgets, which ended on January 25, 2013.
There were no comments.
IDEM has also provided total emissions, including mobile emissions
based on MOVES2010a, for the attainment year of 2006, the interim year
2010 and the 2020 maintenance year (as shown in table 1). The combined
emissions reduction for each pollutant is the reduction in emissions
from the base year (in this case the 2006 attainment year) to the final
year of the maintenance plan (in this case the 2020 year). The total
emissions include point, area, non-road and on-road mobile sources.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
IDEM has added only a small portion of the combined emissions
reduction available for use in NOX and VOC budgets for 2010
and 2020. As shown in table 1, the submittal demonstrates that the
area's emissions decline from the attainment year of 2006 to maintain
the 1997 8-hour ozone standard.
No additional control measures were needed to maintain the 1997
ozone standard in the Lake and Porter County area. An appropriate
safety margin for NOX and VOCs was selected by the
interagency consultation group, which consists of representatives from
the Federal Highway Administration, the Indiana Department of
Transportation, IDEM, and EPA. The on-road MOVES2010a based budgets for
ozone are listed in table 2.

IDEM has also provided total emissions, including mobile emissions
based on MOVES2010a, for the attainment year of 2008, the interim year
2015 and the 2025 maintenance year, as shown in table 3.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Indiana has added only a small portion of the combined emissions
reduction available for use in NOX and PM2.5
budgets for 2015 and 2025. As shown in table 3, the reduction in
emissions between 2008 and 2025 demonstrates that the area will
continue to maintain the 1997 annual PM2.5 standard.
No additional control measures were needed to maintain the 1997
annual PM2.5 standard in the Lake and Porter County area. An
appropriate safety margin for NOX and PM2.5 was
decided by the interagency consultation group. The on-road MOVES2010a
based budgets are shown in table 4.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
III. What are the Criteria for approval?
EPA requires that revisions to existing SIPs and budgets continue
to meet applicable requirements (e.g., RFP, attainment, or
maintenance). The SIP must also meet any applicable SIP requirements
under CAA section 110. In addition, adequacy criteria found at 40 CFR
93.118(e)(4) must be satisfied before EPA can find submitted budgets
adequate and approve them for conformity purposes.
Areas can revise their budgets and inventories using MOVES without
revising their entire SIP if: (1) The SIP continues to meet applicable
requirements when the previous motor vehicle emissions inventories are
replaced with MOVES base year and milestone, attainment, or maintenance
year inventories; and (2) the state can document that growth and
control strategy assumptions for non-motor vehicle sources continue to
be valid and any minor updates do not change the overall conclusions
underlying the SIP. The Indiana submittals meet this requirement as
described below in the next section.
For more information, see EPA's latest ``Policy Guidance on the Use
of MOVES2010 for SIP Development, Transportation Conformity, and Other
Purposes'' (April 2012), available online at: www.epa.gov/otaq/stateresources/transconf/policy.htm#models.
IV. What Is EPA's analysis of the State's submittal?
a. The Revised Inventories
The February 1, 2013, SIP revision requests for the Lake and Porter
County 1997 ozone maintenance area and the 1997 annual PM2.5
area seek to revise only the on-road mobile source inventories. IDEM
has certified that the control strategies remain the same as in the
original SIP, and that no other control strategies are necessary. IDEM
also finds that growth and control strategy assumptions for sources
other than on-road have not changed significantly from the original
submittal. This is confirmed by the monitoring data for the Lake and
Porter County area, which continues to monitor attainment for the 1997
8-hour ozone
[[Page 28506]]
standard and the 1997 annual PM2.5 standard.
b. Approvability of the MOVES2010a-Based Budgets
EPA evaluated the MOVES-based budgets submitted on February 1,
2013, using the adequacy criteria found in 40 CFR 93.118(e)(4) and our
in-depth evaluation of the state's submittal and SIP requirements.
Before submitting the revised budgets, Indiana followed all necessary
conformity procedures. The budgets are clearly identified and precisely
quantified in the submittal. The budgets, when considered with other
emissions sources, are consistent with continued maintenance of the
1997 ozone standard. The budgets are clearly related to the emissions
inventory and control measures in the SIP. The changes from the
previous budgets are clearly explained with the change in the model
from MOBILE6.2 to MOVES2010a and the revised and updated planning
assumptions. The inputs to the model are detailed in the Appendix to
the submittal. EPA has reviewed the inputs to the MOVES2010a modeling
and participated in the consultation process. The Federal Highway
Administration--Indiana Division and the Indiana Department of
Transportation have taken a lead role in working with the Northwestern
Indiana Regional Planning Commission to provide accurate, timely
information and inputs to the MOVES2010a model runs. The state has
documented that growth and control strategy assumptions for non-motor
vehicle sources (i.e. area, non-road, and point) continue to be valid
and any minor updates do not change the overall conclusions of the SIP.
IDEM's submission confirms that the SIP continues to demonstrate
maintenance of the 1997 ozone standard and annual PM2.5
standard because the total emissions in the revised SIP (including
MOVES2010a emissions for mobile sources) decrease from the attainment
year to the last year of the maintenance plan, as shown in tables 1 and
3. The budgets include an appropriate margin of safety while still
maintaining total emissions below the attainment level.
Based on our review of the February 1, 2013, submittal, EPA has
determined that the SIP will continue to meet its requirements if the
revised motor vehicle emissions inventories are replaced with
MOVES2010a inventories.
c. Applicability of MOBILE6.2-Based Budgets
When we finalize the approval of the revised budgets, the state's
existing MOBILE6.2-based budgets will no longer be applicable for
transportation conformity purposes.
V. What action is EPA taking?
EPA is approving MOVES2010a-based budgets for the Lake and Porter
County, Indiana 1997 8-hour ozone maintenance area and 1997 annual
PM2.5 maintenance area as submitted on February 1, 2013. We
are publishing this action without prior proposal because we view this
as a noncontroversial amendment and anticipate no adverse comments.
However, in the proposed rules section of this Federal Register
publication, we are publishing a separate document that will serve as
the proposal to approve the state plan if relevant adverse written
comments are filed. This rule will be effective July 15, 2013 without
further notice unless we receive relevant adverse written comments by
June 14, 2013. If we receive such comments, we will withdraw this
action before the effective date by publishing a subsequent document
that will withdraw the final action. All public comments received will
then be addressed in a subsequent final rule based on the proposed
action. EPA will not institute a second comment period. Any parties
interested in commenting on this action should do so at this time.
Please note that if EPA receives adverse comment on an amendment,
paragraph, or section of this rule and if that provision may be severed
from the remainder of the rule, EPA may adopt as final those provisions
of the rule that are not the subject of an adverse comment. If we do
not receive any comments, this action will be effective July 15, 2013.
VI. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
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.
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).
[[Page 28507]]
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 July 15, 2013. 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. Parties with objections to this direct final rule are
encouraged to file a comment in response to the parallel notice of
proposed rulemaking for this action published in the proposed rules
section of today's Federal Register, rather than file an immediate
petition for judicial review of this direct final rule, so that EPA can
withdraw this direct final rule and address the comment in the proposed
rulemaking. This action may not be challenged later in proceedings to
enforce its requirements. (See section 307(b)(2).)
