Farm Credit Administration Board; Sunshine Act; Regular Meeting, 46265-46266 [2014-18821]

Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 152 / Thursday, August 7, 2014 / Notices ground for denial of California’s waiver request. d. Effects of Delay and Previous NonEnforcement of the Regulations Some commenters, including the ATA and CTA, criticize California for not enforcing the HD GHG Regulations for nearly four years after implementation. They argue that the non-enforcement has increased carrier costs and has disadvantaged carriers who attempted to comply with the HD GHG Regulations on time.112 ATA further asks EPA to consider in its waiver decisions whether California has adequate enforcement resources to actually achieve the projected levels of compliance and emissions benefits that CARB projects when it makes its waiver requests.113 California responds that CTA’s and ATA’s assertions on enforcement issues are not issues properly considered in this decision.114 As discussed above, EPA may only deny waiver requests that are based on criteria listed under section 209(b), and both delayed enforcement and previous non-enforcement of prior regulations are not among them. Thus, these issues are outside of the proper scope of review because they are not among the criteria listed under section 209(b). Therefore, EPA cannot find these issues to be a proper ground for denial of California’s waiver request. emcdonald on DSK67QTVN1PROD with NOTICES e. Applicability of the Regulations to Already-Purchased Equipment Finally, ATA expresses concern about delays in the submission and approval of California waivers and authorizations, and ATA asks EPA to determine whether it is ‘‘valid’’ for the HD GHG Regulations to apply to equipment that has already been purchased and is in operation.’’ 115 However, ATA does not show how this concern is relevant to the criteria that EPA must evaluate related to California’s request for a waiver under section 209(b). As previously explained, EPA may only deny waiver requests that are based on criteria listed under section 209(b), and EPA has consistently refrained from reviewing California’s requests for waivers and authorizations based on criteria that extend beyond the criteria of section 209(b) of the CAA. Therefore, EPA cannot find this issue to be a proper ground for denial of California’s waiver request. 112 ATA, at 6; CTA, at 2. at 6. 114 CARB’s Supplemental Comment, at 20. 115 ATA, at 6. 113 ATA, VerDate Mar<15>2010 17:14 Aug 06, 2014 Jkt 232001 IV. Decision The Administrator has delegated the authority to grant California section 209(b) waivers to the Assistant Administrator for Air and Radiation. After evaluating CARB’s amendments to the HD GHG Regulations described above and CARB’s submissions for EPA review, EPA is hereby granting a waiver for California’s Tractor-Trailer Greenhouse Gas Regulations (‘‘HD GHG Regulations’’) for new 2011 through 2013 MY Class 8 tractors equipped with integrated sleeper berths (sleeper-cab tractors) and to new 2011 and subsequent MY dry-van and refrigerated-van trailers that are pulled by such tractors on California highways. This decision will affect not only persons in California, but also manufacturers and operators nationwide who must comply with California’s requirements. In addition, because other states may adopt California’s standards for which a section 209(b) waiver has been granted under section 177 of the Act if certain criteria are met, this decision would also affect those states and those persons in such states. For these reasons, EPA determines and finds that this is a final action of national applicability, and also a final action of nationwide scope or effect for purposes of section 307(b)(1) of the Act. Pursuant to section 307(b)(1) of the Act, judicial review of this final action may be sought only in the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. Petitions for review must be filed by October 6, 2014. Judicial review of this final action may not be obtained in subsequent enforcement proceedings, pursuant to section 307(b)(2) of the Act. V. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews As with past waiver and authorization decisions, this action is not a rule as defined by Executive Order 12866. Therefore, it is exempt from review by the Office of Management and Budget as required for rules and regulations by Executive Order 12866. In addition, this action is not a rule as defined in the Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 601(2). Therefore, EPA has not prepared a supporting regulatory flexibility analysis addressing the impact of this action on small business entities. Further, the Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801, et seq., as added by the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996, does not apply because this action is not a rule for purposes of 5 U.S.C. 804(3).
