date from July 1, 2013, to July 1, 2014
(78 FR 29652). The Department provides
this further extension for institutions in
order to provide States with additional
time to finalize processes for those
institutions to be able to comply with
the State authorization provisions in
§ 600.9(a) and (b). Those provisions
apply to an institution separately with
respect to each State in which the
institution has a main or additional
location offering at least 50 percent of
an eligible educational program.
In order for an institution that cannot
meet the State authorization
requirements to receive an extension
until July 1, 2015, to implement
§ 600.9(a) and (b), the institution must
obtain from the State an explanation,
such as information on timeline and
action steps to ensure compliance, of
how an additional one-year extension
will permit the State to finalize its
procedures so that the institution is in
compliance with amended § 600.9. The
explanation must be provided to
Department staff upon request.

ACTION: Final rule.
I. Background
AGENCY:
The Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) is approving the portion
of the December 27, 2013, State
Implementation Plan (SIP) submittal
from Oregon relating to the
infrastructure requirements of the Clean
Air Act (CAA) for the National Ambient
Air Quality Standards (NAAQS)
promulgated for lead (Pb) on October
15, 2008. The CAA requires that each
state, after a new or revised NAAQS is
promulgated, review their SIP to ensure
that it meets the infrastructure
requirements necessary to implement
the new or revised NAAQS. The EPA
finds that the Oregon SIP meets the
CAA infrastructure requirements for the
2008 Pb NAAQS.
DATES: This final rule is effective on July
24, 2014.
ADDRESSES: The EPA has established a
docket for this action under Docket

I. Background
II. Final Action
III. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
Section 110 of the CAA specifies the
general requirements for states to submit
SIPs to implement, maintain, and
enforce the NAAQS and the EPA’s
actions regarding approval of those SIPs.
On December 27, 2013, Oregon
submitted a SIP revision to the EPA
demonstrating that the SIP meets the
infrastructure requirements of the CAA
for the 2008 Pb NAAQS, 2010 nitrogen
dioxide NAAQS, and 2010 sulfur
dioxide NAAQS. On April 17, 2014, we
proposed approval of the portion of
Oregon’s December 27, 2013, submittal
relating to the 2008 Pb NAAQS (79 FR
21679). An explanation of the CAA
requirements and implementing
regulations that are met by this SIP
revision, a detailed explanation of the
revision, and the EPA’s reasons for the
proposed action were provided in the
notice of proposed rulemaking on April
17, 2014, and will not be restated here.
We note that we intend to address the
remainder of the December 27, 2013,
submittal, relating to the infrastructure
requirements of the 2010 nitrogen
dioxide NAAQS and 2010 sulfur
dioxide NAAQS, in a separate action (79
FR 21679). The public comment period
for our proposed action ended on May
19, 2014, and we received no comments.
II. Final Action
The EPA is approving the portion of
the December 27, 2013, submittal from
Oregon relating to the infrastructure
requirements of the 2008 Pb NAAQS.
Specifically, we are approving the
submitted revision to OAR 340–202–
0130 ‘‘Ambient Air Quality Standard for
Lead’’ and the addition of OAR 340–
202–0020 ‘‘Applicability.’’ We find that
the Oregon SIP meets the following
CAA section 110(a)(2) infrastructure
elements for the 2008 Pb NAAQS: (A),

(B), (C), (D)(i)(II), (D)(ii), (E), (F), (G), (H),
(J), (K), (L), and (M).
As described in detail in our proposal
on April 17, 2014 (79 FR 21679), we are
not approving the submitted revision to
OAR 340–200–0040 ‘‘State of Oregon
Clean Air Act Implementation Plan.’’ In
addition, we are taking no action on the
submitted revisions to OAR 340–200–
0020 ‘‘General Air Quality Definitions,
Table 1—Significant Air Quality
Impact,’’ OAR 340–202–0070 ‘‘Sulfur
Dioxide,’’ and OAR 340–202–0100
‘‘Nitrogen Dioxide’’ because these
revisions are outside the scope of the
2008 Pb infrastructure SIP. We intend to
address these revisions in a separate
action. This action is being taken under
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
CAA and applicable Federal regulations.
42 U.S.C. 7410(k); 40 CFR 52.02(a).
Thus, in reviewing SIP submissions, the
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
this action does not involve technical
standards; and does not provide the
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 the 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. The 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 August 25, 2014. 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)).

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is approving the
portion of the December 27, 2013, State Implementation Plan (SIP)
submittal from Oregon relating to the infrastructure requirements of
the Clean Air Act (CAA) for the National Ambient Air Quality Standards
(NAAQS) promulgated for lead (Pb) on October 15, 2008. The CAA requires
that each state, after a new or revised NAAQS is promulgated, review
their SIP to ensure that it meets the infrastructure requirements
necessary to implement the new or revised NAAQS. The EPA finds that the
Oregon SIP meets the CAA infrastructure requirements for the 2008 Pb
NAAQS.
DATES: This final rule is effective on July 24, 2014.

Information is organized as follows:
Table of Contents
I. Background
II. Final Action
III. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
I. Background
Section 110 of the CAA specifies the general requirements for
states to submit SIPs to implement, maintain, and enforce the NAAQS and
the EPA's actions regarding approval of those SIPs. On December 27,
2013, Oregon submitted a SIP revision to the EPA demonstrating that the
SIP meets the infrastructure requirements of the CAA for the 2008 Pb
NAAQS, 2010 nitrogen dioxide NAAQS, and 2010 sulfur dioxide NAAQS. On
April 17, 2014, we proposed approval of the portion of Oregon's
December 27, 2013, submittal relating to the 2008 Pb NAAQS (79 FR
21679). An explanation of the CAA requirements and implementing
regulations that are met by this SIP revision, a detailed explanation
of the revision, and the EPA's reasons for the proposed action were
provided in the notice of proposed rulemaking on April 17, 2014, and
will not be restated here. We note that we intend to address the
remainder of the December 27, 2013, submittal, relating to the
infrastructure requirements of the 2010 nitrogen dioxide NAAQS and 2010
sulfur dioxide NAAQS, in a separate action (79 FR 21679). The public
comment period for our proposed action ended on May 19, 2014, and we
received no comments.
II. Final Action
The EPA is approving the portion of the December 27, 2013,
submittal from Oregon relating to the infrastructure requirements of
the 2008 Pb NAAQS. Specifically, we are approving the submitted
revision to OAR 340-202-0130 ``Ambient Air Quality Standard for Lead''
and the addition of OAR 340-202-0020 ``Applicability.'' We find that
the Oregon SIP meets the following CAA section 110(a)(2) infrastructure
elements for the 2008 Pb NAAQS: (A),
[[Page 35694]]
(B), (C), (D)(i)(II), (D)(ii), (E), (F), (G), (H), (J), (K), (L), and
(M).
As described in detail in our proposal on April 17, 2014 (79 FR
21679), we are not approving the submitted revision to OAR 340-200-0040
``State of Oregon Clean Air Act Implementation Plan.'' In addition, we
are taking no action on the submitted revisions to OAR 340-200-0020
``General Air Quality Definitions, Table 1--Significant Air Quality
Impact,'' OAR 340-202-0070 ``Sulfur Dioxide,'' and OAR 340-202-0100
``Nitrogen Dioxide'' because these revisions are outside the scope of
the 2008 Pb infrastructure SIP. We intend to address these revisions in
a separate action. This action is being taken under 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 CAA and applicable
Federal regulations. 42 U.S.C. 7410(k); 40 CFR 52.02(a). Thus, in
reviewing SIP submissions, the 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 this action does not involve technical standards; and
does not provide the 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 the 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. The 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 August 25, 2014. 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)).
