No Action/Separate Rulemaking. Disapprove. Not germane to infrastructure SIPs. Federally promulgated rules in place. Previously discussed in element (C). To clarify, EPA is proposing to disapprove the infrastructure SIP submission from Illinois with respect to certain PSD requirements including: (i) The explicit identification of NOX as a precursor to ozone consistent with the Phase 2 Rule; (ii) the explicit identification of SO2 and NOX as PM2.5 precursors (and the significant emissions rates for direct PM2.5, and SO2 and NOX as its precursors), and the regulation of PM2.5 and PM10 condensables, consistent with the requirements of the 2008 NSR Rule; (iii) the PM2.5 increments and associated implementation rules consistent with the 2010 NSR Rule; and, (iv) permitting of GHG emitting sources at the Federal Tailoring Rule thresholds. EPA is also proposing to disapprove the infrastructure SIP submission from with respect to the requirements of section 110(a)(2)(D)(ii) related to interstate pollution abatement. Specifically, this section requires states with PSD programs have provisions requiring a new or modified source to notify neighboring states of the potential impacts from the source, consistent with the requirements of section 126(a). However, Illinois has no further obligations to EPA because Federally promulgated rules, promulgated at 40 CFR 52.21 are in effect in the state. EPA has delegated the authority to Illinois to administer these rules, which include provisions related to PSD and interstate pollution abatement. A final disapproval for Illinois for these infrastructure SIP requirements will not result in sanctions under section 179(a), nor will it obligate EPA to promulgate a Federal implementation plan within two years of final action if the state does not submit revisions to its PSD SIPs addressing these deficiencies. Instead, VerDate Mar<15>2010 16:01 Jul 11, 2014 Jkt 232001 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 PO 00000 Frm 00012 Fmt 4702 Sfmt 4702 2010 NO2 A A NA A A ** + A A A 2010 SO2 A A NA A A ** + A A A • 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.
