(1) Applications for licenses covering more than one fee category of special nuclear material or source material must be accompanied by the
prescribed application fee for the highest fee category.
(2) Applications for new licenses that cover both byproduct material and special nuclear material in sealed sources for use in gauging devices
will pay the appropriate application fee for fee category 1.C. only.
(b) Licensing fees. Fees for reviews of applications for new licenses, renewals, and amendments to existing licenses, preapplication consultations and other documents submitted to the NRC for review, and project manager time for fee categories subject to full cost fees are due upon
notification by the Commission in accordance with § 170.12(b).
(c) Amendment fees. Applications for amendments to export and import licenses must be accompanied by the prescribed amendment fee for
each license affected. An application for an amendment to an export or import license or approval classified in more than one fee category must
be accompanied by the prescribed amendment fee for the category affected by the amendment, unless the amendment is applicable to two or
more fee categories, in which case the amendment fee for the highest fee category would apply.
(d) Inspection fees. Inspections resulting from investigations conducted by the Office of Investigations and nonroutine inspections that result
from third-party allegations are not subject to fees. Inspection fees are due upon notification by the Commission in accordance with § 170.12(c).
(e) Generally licensed device registrations under 10 CFR 31.5. Submittals of registration information must be accompanied by the prescribed
fee.
2 Fees will not be charged for orders related to civil penalties or other civil sanctions issued by the Commission under 10 CFR 2.202 or for
amendments resulting specifically from the requirements of these orders. For orders unrelated to civil penalties or other civil sanctions, fees will
be charged for any resulting licensee-specific activities not otherwise exempted from fees under this chapter. Fees will be charged for approvals
issued under a specific exemption provision of the Commission’s regulations under Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (e.g., 10 CFR
30.11, 40.14, 70.14, 73.5, and any other sections in effect now or in the future), regardless of whether the approval is in the form of a license
amendment, letter of approval, safety evaluation report, or other form. In addition to the fee shown, an applicant may be assessed an additional
fee for sealed source and device evaluations as shown in fee categories 9.A. through 9.D.
3 Full cost fees will be determined based on the professional staff time multiplied by the appropriate professional hourly rate established in
§ 170.20 in effect when the service is provided, and the appropriate contractual support services expended.

Organization of this document. The
following outline is provided to aid in
locating information in this preamble.
I. Background and Purpose
II. Final Action
III. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
I. Background and Purpose
On February 14, 2013 (78 FR 10583),
EPA published a Notice of Proposed
Rulemaking (NPR) for the State of
Massachusetts. The NPR proposed
approval of Massachusetts’ January 31,
2008 SIP submittal that demonstrates
that the state has adopted air pollution
control strategies that represent RACT
for purposes of compliance with the
1997 8-hour ozone standard. In
addition, the NPR proposed approval of
two revised regulations (and associated
definitions) submitted by Massachusetts
as a SIP revision on June 1, 2010: 310
CMR 7.18(8), ‘‘Solvent Metal
Degreasing;’’ and 310 CMR 7.24(6),
‘‘Dispensing of Motor Vehicle Fuel.’’
The specific details of the January 31,
2008 RACT demonstration and the two
revised regulations and the rationale for
EPA’s proposed action are explained in
the NPR and will not be restated here.
No public comments were received on
the NPR.
II. Final Action
EPA is approving the RACT
certification in Massachusetts’ January
31, 2008 SIP submittal that
demonstrates that the state has adopted
air pollution control strategies that
represent RACT for purposes of
compliance with the 1997 8-hour ozone
standard. EPA previously approved
other portions of Massachusetts’ January
31, 2008 SIP submittal on August 22,
2012 (77 FR 50595), and Massachusetts
withdrew certain other portions of the
E:\FR\FM\09SER1.SGM
09SER1
Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 174 / Monday, September 9, 2013 / Rules and Regulations
submittal in a letter dated January 18,
2013. Therefore, with today’s final
action, EPA has completed its action on
Massachusetts’ January 31, 2008 SIP
submittal. Nothing more regarding this
submittal is pending before EPA.
In addition, we are approving two
revised regulations submitted by
Massachusetts on June 1, 2010: 310
CMR 7.18(8), ‘‘Solvent Metal
Degreasing;’’ and 310 CMR 7.24(6),
‘‘Dispensing of Motor Vehicle Fuel.’’
Furthermore, we are also approving the
following new and revised definitions
in 310 CMR 7.00 that are associated
with these regulations: Isolate; minor
modification; routine maintenance;
solvent metal degreasing; special and
extreme solvent metal cleaning; and
substantial modification.

III. Statutory and Executive Order
Reviews
Under the Clean Air 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 Clean Air 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
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);
VerDate Mar<15>2010
14:56 Sep 06, 2013
Jkt 229001
• 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 Clean Air 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. 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 Clean
Air Act, petitions for judicial review of
this action must be filed in the United
States Court of Appeals for the
appropriate circuit by November 8,
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. This action may not be
challenged later in proceedings to
enforce its requirements. (See section
307(b)(2).)

Organization of this document. The following outline is provided to
aid in locating information in this preamble.
I. Background and Purpose
II. Final Action
III. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
I. Background and Purpose
On February 14, 2013 (78 FR 10583), EPA published a Notice of
Proposed Rulemaking (NPR) for the State of Massachusetts. The NPR
proposed approval of Massachusetts' January 31, 2008 SIP submittal that
demonstrates that the state has adopted air pollution control
strategies that represent RACT for purposes of compliance with the 1997
8-hour ozone standard. In addition, the NPR proposed approval of two
revised regulations (and associated definitions) submitted by
Massachusetts as a SIP revision on June 1, 2010: 310 CMR 7.18(8),
``Solvent Metal Degreasing;'' and 310 CMR 7.24(6), ``Dispensing of
Motor Vehicle Fuel.''
The specific details of the January 31, 2008 RACT demonstration and
the two revised regulations and the rationale for EPA's proposed action
are explained in the NPR and will not be restated here. No public
comments were received on the NPR.
II. Final Action
EPA is approving the RACT certification in Massachusetts' January
31, 2008 SIP submittal that demonstrates that the state has adopted air
pollution control strategies that represent RACT for purposes of
compliance with the 1997 8-hour ozone standard. EPA previously approved
other portions of Massachusetts' January 31, 2008 SIP submittal on
August 22, 2012 (77 FR 50595), and Massachusetts withdrew certain other
portions of the
[[Page 54961]]
submittal in a letter dated January 18, 2013. Therefore, with today's
final action, EPA has completed its action on Massachusetts' January
31, 2008 SIP submittal. Nothing more regarding this submittal is
pending before EPA.
In addition, we are approving two revised regulations submitted by
Massachusetts on June 1, 2010: 310 CMR 7.18(8), ``Solvent Metal
Degreasing;'' and 310 CMR 7.24(6), ``Dispensing of Motor Vehicle
Fuel.'' Furthermore, we are also approving the following new and
revised definitions in 310 CMR 7.00 that are associated with these
regulations: Isolate; minor modification; routine maintenance; solvent
metal degreasing; special and extreme solvent metal cleaning; and
substantial modification.
III. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
Under the Clean Air 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 Clean Air 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 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 Clean Air 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. 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 Clean Air Act, petitions for
judicial review of this action must be filed in the United States Court
of Appeals for the appropriate circuit by November 8, 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. This action may not be challenged later in
proceedings to enforce its requirements. (See section 307(b)(2).)
