ACTION: Final rule.
We have analyzed this rule under
Department of Homeland Security
Management Directive 023–01 and
Commandant Instruction M16475.lD,
which guide the Coast Guard in
complying with the National
Environmental Policy Act of 1969
(NEPA)(42 U.S.C. 4321–4370f), and
have concluded that this action is one
of a category of actions that do not

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Table of Contents
I. Background
II. Final Action
III. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
I. Background
Under the CAA Amendments of 1990,
EPA designated and classified three
Kentucky Counties (Boone, Campbell
and Kenton) and four Ohio Counties
(Butler, Clermont, Hamilton and
Warren) as a ‘‘moderate’’ nonattainment
area for the 1-hour ozone national
ambient air quality standards (NAAQS)
as part of the Cincinnati/Northern
Kentucky Area. See 56 FR 56694,
effective January 6, 1992. The
designation was based on the Area’s 1hour ozone design value of 0.157 parts
per million for the three year period of
1988–1990.
Pursuant to the requirements of
section 182(b)(3) of the CAA, KDAQ
developed the Kentucky Administrative
Regulation (KAR) 401 KAR 59:174 Stage
II controls at gasoline dispensing
facilities, and submitted the rule to EPA
for approval as part of Kentucky’s ozone
SIP. The rule was adopted by Kentucky
on January 12, 1998, and approved by
EPA into the SIP on December 8, 1998.
See 63 FR 67586. Under this regulation,
gasoline dispensing facilities with a
monthly throughput of 25,000 gallons or
more located in a Kentucky County in
which the entire County is classified as
severe, serious, or moderate
nonattainment for ozone are required to
install Stage II vapor recovery systems.
On October 29, 1999, KDAQ
submitted to EPA an ozone maintenance
plan and request for redesignation of the
Kentucky portion of Cincinnati/
Northern Kentucky area to attainment.
At that time the area had three years of
attaining data (1996–1998) and
Kentucky had implemented all
measures then required by the CAA for
E:\FR\FM\25SER1.SGM
25SER1
Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 186 / Wednesday, September 25, 2013 / Rules and Regulations
TKELLEY on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with RULES
a moderate 1-hour ozone nonattainment
area. The maintenance plan, as required
under section 175A of the CAA, showed
that nitrogen oxides and volatile organic
compounds (VOC) emissions in the
Area would remain below the 1990
‘‘attainment year’s’’ levels. In making
these projections KDAQ factored in the
emissions benefit (primarily VOC) of the
Area’s Stage II program, and did not
remove this program from the Kentucky
SIP. The redesignation request and
maintenance plan were approved by
EPA, effective June 19, 2000 (65 FR
37879).
Since the Kentucky Stage II program
was already in place and had been
included in the Commonwealth’s
October 29, 1999, redesignation request
and 1-hour ozone maintenance plan for
the Area, KDAQ elected not to remove
the program from the SIP at that time.
On April 6, 1994, EPA promulgated
regulations requiring the phase-in of
onboard refueling vapor recovery
(ORVR) systems on new motor vehicles.
Under section 202(a)(6) of the CAA,
moderate ozone nonattainment areas are
not required to implement Stage II vapor
recovery programs after promulgation of
ORVR standards.
KDAQ submitted a SIP revision on
April 25, 2013, to exempt Stage II vapor
control requirements for the Enterprise
Holdings, Inc., facility located at the
Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky
International Airport in Boone County.
On May 16, 2013, EPA published a
proposed rulemaking to approve
Kentucky’s April 25, 2013, SIP revision
related to Stage II requirements at the
Enterprise Holdings, Inc., facility.
Detailed background for today’s final
rulemaking can be found in EPA’s May
16, 2013, proposed rulemaking. See 78
FR 28776. The comment period for this
proposed rulemaking closed on June 17,
2013. EPA did not receive any
comments, adverse or otherwise, during
the public comment period.
II. Final Action
EPA is taking final action to approve
the aforementioned source-specific SIP
revision request from Kentucky. VOC
emissions from vehicles at the
Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky
International Airport Enterprise
Holdings, Inc., facility are controlled by
ORVR, therefore, EPA has concluded
that removal of Stage II requirements at
this facility would not result in an
increase of VOC emissions, and thus
would not contribute to ozone
formation. The Commonwealth has
requested removal of this requirement
for this facility and EPA has determined
that Kentucky has fully satisfied the
requirements of section 110(l) of the
VerDate Mar<15>2010
16:13 Sep 24, 2013
Jkt 229001
CAA. Therefore, EPA is taking final
action to approve this source-specific
SIP revision, as being consistent with
section 110 of the CAA.
III. Statutory and Executive Order
Reviews
Under the CAA, 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 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
PO 00000
Frm 00019
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
58885
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 November 25, 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).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Table of Contents
I. Background
II. Final Action
III. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
I. Background
Under the CAA Amendments of 1990, EPA designated and classified
three Kentucky Counties (Boone, Campbell and Kenton) and four Ohio
Counties (Butler, Clermont, Hamilton and Warren) as a ``moderate''
nonattainment area for the 1-hour ozone national ambient air quality
standards (NAAQS) as part of the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky Area. See
56 FR 56694, effective January 6, 1992. The designation was based on
the Area's 1-hour ozone design value of 0.157 parts per million for the
three year period of 1988-1990.
Pursuant to the requirements of section 182(b)(3) of the CAA, KDAQ
developed the Kentucky Administrative Regulation (KAR) 401 KAR 59:174
Stage II controls at gasoline dispensing facilities, and submitted the
rule to EPA for approval as part of Kentucky's ozone SIP. The rule was
adopted by Kentucky on January 12, 1998, and approved by EPA into the
SIP on December 8, 1998. See 63 FR 67586. Under this regulation,
gasoline dispensing facilities with a monthly throughput of 25,000
gallons or more located in a Kentucky County in which the entire County
is classified as severe, serious, or moderate nonattainment for ozone
are required to install Stage II vapor recovery systems.
On October 29, 1999, KDAQ submitted to EPA an ozone maintenance
plan and request for redesignation of the Kentucky portion of
Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky area to attainment. At that time the area
had three years of attaining data (1996-1998) and Kentucky had
implemented all measures then required by the CAA for
[[Page 58885]]
a moderate 1-hour ozone nonattainment area. The maintenance plan, as
required under section 175A of the CAA, showed that nitrogen oxides and
volatile organic compounds (VOC) emissions in the Area would remain
below the 1990 ``attainment year's'' levels. In making these
projections KDAQ factored in the emissions benefit (primarily VOC) of
the Area's Stage II program, and did not remove this program from the
Kentucky SIP. The redesignation request and maintenance plan were
approved by EPA, effective June 19, 2000 (65 FR 37879).
Since the Kentucky Stage II program was already in place and had
been included in the Commonwealth's October 29, 1999, redesignation
request and 1-hour ozone maintenance plan for the Area, KDAQ elected
not to remove the program from the SIP at that time. On April 6, 1994,
EPA promulgated regulations requiring the phase-in of onboard refueling
vapor recovery (ORVR) systems on new motor vehicles. Under section
202(a)(6) of the CAA, moderate ozone nonattainment areas are not
required to implement Stage II vapor recovery programs after
promulgation of ORVR standards.
KDAQ submitted a SIP revision on April 25, 2013, to exempt Stage II
vapor control requirements for the Enterprise Holdings, Inc., facility
located at the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport in
Boone County. On May 16, 2013, EPA published a proposed rulemaking to
approve Kentucky's April 25, 2013, SIP revision related to Stage II
requirements at the Enterprise Holdings, Inc., facility. Detailed
background for today's final rulemaking can be found in EPA's May 16,
2013, proposed rulemaking. See 78 FR 28776. The comment period for this
proposed rulemaking closed on June 17, 2013. EPA did not receive any
comments, adverse or otherwise, during the public comment period.
II. Final Action
EPA is taking final action to approve the aforementioned source-
specific SIP revision request from Kentucky. VOC emissions from
vehicles at the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport
Enterprise Holdings, Inc., facility are controlled by ORVR, therefore,
EPA has concluded that removal of Stage II requirements at this
facility would not result in an increase of VOC emissions, and thus
would not contribute to ozone formation. The Commonwealth has requested
removal of this requirement for this facility and EPA has determined
that Kentucky has fully satisfied the requirements of section 110(l) of
the CAA. Therefore, EPA is taking final action to approve this source-
specific SIP revision, as being consistent with section 110 of the CAA.
III. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
Under the CAA, 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 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).
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 November 25, 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).
