The Forest Service presented the corrections and modifications to the State of Idaho’s Roadless Rule Advisory Commission on April 5, 2012 and the Governor of Idaho has recommended the Forest Service proceed with the modifications. Comments on the Proposal The Forest Service received two comments on the proposed modifications and corrections. The first respondent was opposed to the expansion of the five Idaho Roadless Areas. This respondent did not feel the expansion would better the country, state, counties, and cities. Response: The modifications to the five Idaho Roadless Areas adds 1,464 acres to the existing 9.3 million acres of roadless areas in Idaho. The additions are necessary because of land exchanges that occurred since the Idaho Roadless Rule was finalized. All the acres are either surrounded by existing Idaho Roadless Areas or are adjacent to an existing Idaho Roadless Area. Adding these lands to existing or adjacent roadless areas will result in a consistent management approach. The Idaho Roadless Rule represents a compromise that balances the nationally recognized need for conservation of roadless areas with being more responsive to local communities and citizens. The second respondent agreed with the modifications and administrative corrections to Big Creek, Pinchot Butte, Roland Point, Wonderful Peak, SalmoPriest, and Upper Priest Idaho Roadless Areas, but did not agree with two of the five modifications to Grandmother Mountain. Two of the parcels are adjacent to lands classified as Wildland Recreation and lands classified as Backcountry/Restoration. The respondent believes the acquired lands should be classified as Wildland Recreation, not Backcountry/ Restoration. Response: The Forest Service believes the Backcountry/Restoration is the more appropriate management classification for these parcels for two reasons. First, the majority of the parcels border existing Idaho Roadless Areas classified as Backcountry Restoration. A smaller portion of the parcels that border existing Idaho Roadless Areas classified as Wildland Recreation. Second, the respondent is a member of the State of Idaho’s Roadless Rule Advisory Commission and supported the Commission’s April 23, 2012 letter to the Governor of Idaho supporting the proposed modifications. Restoration. These modifications occur in T47N, R6E, sections 19 and 20, Boise Meridian and were part of the Olson Wondeful Land Exchange. Modifications Due to Lands Acquired Through Land Exchanges The Forest Service is modifying the following Idaho Roadless Areas due to acquisition of lands through land exchanges that occurred since the Idaho Roadless Rule was finalized in the fall of 2008. These modifications will update the maps with correct ownership and management classifications. Big Creek Idaho Roadless Area #143. Two parcels of land, 158 acres, are added to the Big Creek roadless area and are classified as Backcountry Restoration. These modifications occur in T46N, R2E, section 11; and T47N, R2E, section 35, Boise Meridian and were part of the Spooky Butte Land Exchange. Grandmother Mountain Idaho Roadless Area #148. Five parcels of land, 1,107 acres, are added to Grandmother Mountain roadless area and are classified as Backcountry Restoration. These modifications occur in T43N, R3E, section 26; and T43N, R4E, sections 5, 7, 17, and 31, Boise Meridian and were part of the Grandmother Mountain Land Exchange and an unnamed land exchange with a single party. Pinchot Butte Idaho Roadless Area #149. One parcel of land, 80 acres, is added to Pinchot Butte roadless area and is classified as Backcountry Restoration. Bureau of Land Management lands surround this parcel on three sides and are also roadless. These modifications occur in T43N, R4E, section 33, Boise Meridian and were part of the Grandmother Mountain Land Exchange. Roland Point Idaho Roadless Area #146. One parcel of land, 60 acres, is added to Roland Point roadless area and will be classified as Backcountry Restoration. These modifications occur in T47N, R6E, sections 29, 31, and 32, Boise Meridian and were part of the Lucky Swede Land Exchange. Wonderful Peak Idaho Roadless Area #152. One parcel of land, 59 acres, is added to Wonderful Peak roadless area and will be classified as Backcountry Salmo-Priest Idaho Roadless Area #981. The Idaho Roadless Rule is modified to correct a mapping error. A small portion (65 acres) of the SalmoPriest Idaho Roadless Area is changed from a Forest Plan Special Area to Wild Land Recreation. This change reflects the width of the eligible Wild and Scenic River (Hughes Fork) located in this section. These modifications occur in T63N, R5W, sections 5 and 6; T64N, R5W, sections 20, 28 and 29, Boise Meridian. Upper Priest Idaho Roadless Area #123. The Idaho Roadless Rule is modified to correct a mapping error. A small portion (112 acres) of the Upper Priest Roadless Area is changed from Backcountry/Restoration to a Forest Plan Special Area. This change reflects the width of the eligible Wild and Scenic River (Hughes Fork) located in this section. These proposed modifications occur in T62N, R4W, sections 6, 7 and 8; T62N, R5W, section 1; T63N, R5W, sections 12, 13, 16, 21, 28, 33, and 34, Boise Meridian.

Summary of our Final Action II. Background III. Response to Comments IV. Conclusion V. Statutory and Executive Orders Review I. Summary of our Final Action The EPA is taking final action to partially approve and partially disapprove the Washington Regional Haze SIP submitted on December 22, 2010. In this action, the EPA is approving the following provisions of the Washington SIP: The identification of affected Class I areas and determination of baseline conditions, the natural conditions and uniform rate of progress (URP) for each Class I area; the emission inventories; the sources of visibility impairment in Washington’s Class I areas; the State’s monitoring strategy; the State’s consultation with other states and Federal Land Managers (FLMs); the reasonable progress goals (RPGs); the long-term strategy (LTS); and the commitment to submit the periodic SIP revisions and 5-year Progress Reports. In today’s action, we are also approving the State’s BART determinations for the BP Cherry Point PO 00000 Frm 00020 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 Refinery, the Port Townsend Paper Company, the LaFarge North America facility, and Weyerhaeuser’s Longview facility, as well as portions of the BART determinations for the Tesoro refinery and the Intalco facility. The EPA is disapproving Washington’s NOX BART determination and promulgating a BART Alternative for five emission units at the Tesoro refinery. The EPA is also finalizing a limited approval and limited disapproval of the State’s SO2 BART determination for the potlines at the Intalco facility and promulgating an SO2 BART Alternative for the potlines, consisting of an annual limit of 80% of base year SO2 emissions. Finally, the EPA is disapproving the State’s BART exemption for the Wenatchee Works and promulgating BART for SO2, NOX, and PM emissions at the facility. The resulting BART FIP for the Tesoro refinery, the Intalco facility, and the Wenatchee Works does not require the purchase or installation of new air pollution control equipment, but rather establishes BART based on existing control technology. Thus, the only additional costs incurred by these facilities will be minimal expenditures for monitoring, reporting, and recordkeeping. The benefit to the environment is the prevention of visibility degradation due to potential future increases in emissions from changes envisioned at the facilities. This final action is consistent with our proposed actions and meets the requirements of CAA sections 169A and 169B and 40 CFR 51.308. II. Background In the CAA Amendments of 1977, Congress established a program to protect and improve visibility in national parks and wilderness areas. See CAA section 169A. Congress amended the visibility provisions in the CAA in 1990 to focus attention on the problem of regional haze. See CAA section 169B. The EPA promulgated regulations in 1999 to implement sections 169A and 169B of the Act. These regulations require states to develop and implement plans to ensure reasonable progress toward improving visibility in mandatory Class I Federal areas 1 (Class 1 Areas designated as mandatory Class I Federal areas consist of national parks exceeding 6,000 acres, wilderness areas and national memorial parks exceeding 5,000 acres, and all international parks that were in existence on August 7, 1977. 42 U.S.C. 7472(a). In accordance with section 169A of the CAA, the EPA, in consultation with the Department of Interior, promulgated a list of 156 areas where visibility is identified as an important value. 44 FR 69122 (November 30, 1979).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    The following modifications and corrections will update five 
roadless areas due to land exchanges that occurred after the Idaho 
Roadless Rule was finalized, correct two roadless area mapping errors 
associated with Forest Plan Special Areas, and correct the list at 36 
CFR 294.29 because an area had been inappropriately shown as only 
located on the Idaho Panhandle National Forest instead of split between 
the Idaho Panhandle and Kootenai National Forests. The Idaho Roadless 
Rule authorizes administrative corrections to the maps of lands 
identified in 36 CFR 294.22(c), including but not limited to, 
adjustment that remedy clerical errors, typographical errors, mapping 
errors, or improvements in mapping technology. Pursuant to 36 CFR 
294.27(b), the Chief of the Forest Service may issue administrative 
corrections after a 30-day public notice and opportunity to comment. 
The Final Rule also authorizes modifications that add to, remove from, 
or modify the designations and management classifications listed in 36 
CFR 294.29 based on changed circumstances or public need. The Chief of 
the Forest Service may issue modifications after a 45-day public notice 
and opportunity to comment.

[[Page 33437]]

    The Forest Service published a proposed rule in the Federal 
Register on April 19, 2013 (78 FR 23522) for a 45-day public comment 
period. The Forest Service presented the corrections and modifications 
to the State of Idaho's Roadless Rule Advisory Commission on April 5, 
2012 and the Governor of Idaho has recommended the Forest Service 
proceed with the modifications.

Comments on the Proposal

    The Forest Service received two comments on the proposed 
modifications and corrections.
    The first respondent was opposed to the expansion of the five Idaho 
Roadless Areas. This respondent did not feel the expansion would better 
the country, state, counties, and cities.
    Response: The modifications to the five Idaho Roadless Areas adds 
1,464 acres to the existing 9.3 million acres of roadless areas in 
Idaho. The additions are necessary because of land exchanges that 
occurred since the Idaho Roadless Rule was finalized. All the acres are 
either surrounded by existing Idaho Roadless Areas or are adjacent to 
an existing Idaho Roadless Area. Adding these lands to existing or 
adjacent roadless areas will result in a consistent management 
approach. The Idaho Roadless Rule represents a compromise that balances 
the nationally recognized need for conservation of roadless areas with 
being more responsive to local communities and citizens.
    The second respondent agreed with the modifications and 
administrative corrections to Big Creek, Pinchot Butte, Roland Point, 
Wonderful Peak, Salmo-Priest, and Upper Priest Idaho Roadless Areas, 
but did not agree with two of the five modifications to Grandmother 
Mountain. Two of the parcels are adjacent to lands classified as 
Wildland Recreation and lands classified as Backcountry/Restoration. 
The respondent believes the acquired lands should be classified as 
Wildland Recreation, not Backcountry/Restoration.
    Response: The Forest Service believes the Backcountry/Restoration 
is the more appropriate management classification for these parcels for 
two reasons. First, the majority of the parcels border existing Idaho 
Roadless Areas classified as Backcountry Restoration. A smaller portion 
of the parcels that border existing Idaho Roadless Areas classified as 
Wildland Recreation. Second, the respondent is a member of the State of 
Idaho's Roadless Rule Advisory Commission and supported the 
Commission's April 23, 2012 letter to the Governor of Idaho supporting 
the proposed modifications.

Modifications Due to Lands Acquired Through Land Exchanges

    The Forest Service is modifying the following Idaho Roadless Areas 
due to acquisition of lands through land exchanges that occurred since 
the Idaho Roadless Rule was finalized in the fall of 2008. These 
modifications will update the maps with correct ownership and 
management classifications.
    Big Creek Idaho Roadless Area #143. Two parcels of land, 158 acres, 
are added to the Big Creek roadless area and are classified as 
Backcountry Restoration. These modifications occur in T46N, R2E, 
section 11; and T47N, R2E, section 35, Boise Meridian and were part of 
the Spooky Butte Land Exchange.
    Grandmother Mountain Idaho Roadless Area #148. Five parcels of 
land, 1,107 acres, are added to Grandmother Mountain roadless area and 
are classified as Backcountry Restoration. These modifications occur in 
T43N, R3E, section 26; and T43N, R4E, sections 5, 7, 17, and 31, Boise 
Meridian and were part of the Grandmother Mountain Land Exchange and an 
unnamed land exchange with a single party.
    Pinchot Butte Idaho Roadless Area #149. One parcel of land, 80 
acres, is added to Pinchot Butte roadless area and is classified as 
Backcountry Restoration. Bureau of Land Management lands surround this 
parcel on three sides and are also roadless. These modifications occur 
in T43N, R4E, section 33, Boise Meridian and were part of the 
Grandmother Mountain Land Exchange.
    Roland Point Idaho Roadless Area #146. One parcel of land, 60 
acres, is added to Roland Point roadless area and will be classified as 
Backcountry Restoration. These modifications occur in T47N, R6E, 
sections 29, 31, and 32, Boise Meridian and were part of the Lucky 
Swede Land Exchange.
    Wonderful Peak Idaho Roadless Area #152. One parcel of land, 59 
acres, is added to Wonderful Peak roadless area and will be classified 
as Backcountry Restoration. These modifications occur in T47N, R6E, 
sections 19 and 20, Boise Meridian and were part of the Olson Wondeful 
Land Exchange.

Technical Correction to Theme Classifications

    Salmo-Priest Idaho Roadless Area #981. The Idaho Roadless Rule is 
modified to correct a mapping error. A small portion (65 acres) of the 
Salmo- Priest Idaho Roadless Area is changed from a Forest Plan Special 
Area to Wild Land Recreation. This change reflects the width of the 
eligible Wild and Scenic River (Hughes Fork) located in this section. 
These modifications occur in T63N, R5W, sections 5 and 6; T64N, R5W, 
sections 20, 28 and 29, Boise Meridian.
    Upper Priest Idaho Roadless Area #123. The Idaho Roadless Rule is 
modified to correct a mapping error. A small portion (112 acres) of the 
Upper Priest Roadless Area is changed from Backcountry/Restoration to a 
Forest Plan Special Area. This change reflects the width of the 
eligible Wild and Scenic River (Hughes Fork) located in this section. 
These proposed modifications occur in T62N, R4W, sections 6, 7 and 8; 
T62N, R5W, section 1; T63N, R5W, sections 12, 13, 16, 21, 28, 33, and
