(SMCRA or the Act), requesting that we amend our regulations governing the use of explosives to prohibit visible nitrogen oxide clouds.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Joshua Rockwell, Division of Regulatory Support, 1951 Constitution Ave. NW., Washington, DC 20240; Telephone: 202–208–2633; Email: jrockwell@ osmre.gov. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. How does the petition process operate? II. What action does the petition request that we take? III. How may I view the petition and exhibits? IV. How do I submit comments on the petition? V. Procedural Matters and Required Determinations I. How does the petition process operate? Section 201(g) of SMCRA, 30 U.S.C. 1201(g), provides that any person may petition the Director of OSMRE to initiate a proceeding for the issuance, amendment, or repeal of any regulation adopted under SMCRA. It also specifies that ‘‘the Director shall either grant or deny the petition’’ within 90 days after receipt. On March 13, 1979, OSMRE adopted regulations at 30 CFR 700.12 to further implement this statutory provision. Under 30 CFR 700.12(c), we will accept a petition for rulemaking only if the Director determines that it sets forth ‘‘facts, technical justification and law which may provide a reasonable basis for issuance, amendment or repeal of a regulation.’’ The rule also states that facts, technical justification or law previously considered in a different petition or rulemaking on the same issue do not qualify as a reasonable basis. Any petition that does not meet this threshold will be rejected without prejudice. If we accept the petition, we will publish a notice in the Federal Register seeking comments on whether we should grant or deny the petition. At the close of the comment period, the Director will decide to either grant or deny the petition, in whole or in part. We will publish notice of that decision in the Federal Register. If the Director grants the petition, we will initiate rulemaking proceedings in which we again will seek public comment before adopting a final rule. If the Director PO 00000 Frm 00046 Fmt 4702 Sfmt 4702 denies the petition, we will notify the petitioner of the reasons for the decision not to initiate any rulemaking action pursuant to the petition. In accordance with 30 CFR 700.12(d), the Director’s decision on a petition is a final decision for the Department, which means that the petitioner is not entitled to administrative review of the decision. The Director’s decision on a petition constitutes the final decision of the Department of the Interior. Accordingly, it is not subject to review by the Office of Hearings and Appeals. However, the petitioner may seek judicial review of a decision to reject or deny the petition. II. What action does the petition request that we take? On April 18, 2014, we received from WildEarth Guardians a petition for rulemaking requesting that OSMRE promulgate rules to prohibit the production of visible nitrogen oxides (NOX) emissions during blasting at surface coal mining operations in order to protect the health, welfare, and safety of the public and of mine workers, and to prevent injury to persons. The petition requests that we amend our regulations at 30 CFR 816.67 and 817.67 to prohibit visible NOX emissions during blasting and to require that the operator visually monitor all blasting activities and report all instances of visible emissions of NOX to the regulatory authority. III. How may I view the petition and exhibits? You may view and download the complete text of the petition and accompanying exhibits on our home page at https://www.osmre.gov/ programs/rcm/petitions/ WEGPetition041414.pdf and https:// www.osmre.gov/programs/rcm/ petitions/WEGPetitionExhibits.pdf respectively. The petition and exhibits also are available for inspection at the location listed under ADDRESSES. IV. How may I comment on the petition? General Guidance We are seeking comment on the merits of the petition and the requested rule changes. In addition, we seek comment on the extent to which the decision in In re Permanent Surface Min. Regulation Litig. I, Round II, 1980 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 17660 at *43–44 (D.D.C., May 16, 1980), 19 Env’t Rep. Cas. (BNA) 1477, 1491–1492, regarding OSMRE’s authority to regulate air quality, should guide the Director in making the decision to grant or deny the E:\FR\FM\25JYP1.SGM 25JYP1
