asabaliauskas on DSK5VPTVN1PROD with RULES
accordance with requirements of 1 CFR
51.5, the EPA is finalizing the
incorporation by reference of the
PCAPCD and VCAPCD rules described
in the amendments to 40 CFR 52 set
forth below. The EPA has made, and
will continue to make, these documents
available electronically through
www.regulations.gov and in hard copy
at the appropriate EPA office (see the
ADDRESSES section of this preamble for
more information).
IV. Statutory and Executive Order
Reviews
Under the Clean Air Act, the
Administrator is required to approve a
SIP submission that complies with the
provisions of the Act 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 Clean Air Act.
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 Clean Air Act;
and
• Does not provide EPA with the
discretionary authority to address
VerDate Sep<11>2014
16:44 Mar 26, 2015
Jkt 235001
disproportionate human health or
environmental effects with practical,
appropriate, and legally permissible
methods under Executive Order 12898
(59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).
The SIP is not approved to apply on
any Indian reservation land or in any
other area where EPA or an Indian tribe
has demonstrated that a tribe has
jurisdiction. In those areas of Indian
country, the rule does not have tribal
implications and will not impose
substantial direct costs on tribal
governments or preempt tribal law as
specified by Executive Order 13175 (65
FR 67249, November 9, 2000).
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. 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 Clean
Air Act, petitions for judicial review of
this action must be filed in the United
States Court of Appeals for the
appropriate circuit by May 26, 2015.
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. Parties with
objections to this direct final rule are
encouraged to file a comment in
response to the parallel notice of
proposed rulemaking for this action
published in the Proposed Rules section
of today’s Federal Register, rather than
file an immediate petition for judicial
review of this direct final rule, so that
EPA can withdraw this direct final rule
and address the comment in the
proposed rulemaking. This action may
not be challenged later in proceedings to
enforce its requirements (see section
307(b)(2)).

I. Background
On January 21, 2014 (80 FR 2846) we
proposed to approve revisions to the
Texas SIP that the TCEQ submitted to
EPA in multiple RACT-related rule
revisions dated December 6, 2013,
January 17, 2012, June 13, 2007, as well
as the RACT analysis portions of
attainment demonstration plans of
VerDate Sep<11>2014
16:44 Mar 26, 2015
Jkt 235001
January 17, 2012, April 6, 2010, and
June 13, 2007 for the DFW and HGB
areas. Details of these submittals and
their evaluation were explained in our
proposal, and its corresponding
Technical Supporting Document. A
summary of these submittals is
described in section III.
On August 4, 2014 (79 FR 45105) we
approved RACT for the Offset
Lithographic Printing Operations in the
DFW (Serious) and HGB (Severe) areas.
See docket No. EPA–R06–OAR–2010–
0332 at www.regulations.gov. Also, on
September 9, 2014 (79 FR 53299) we
approved revisions to 30 TAC Chapter
115 for control of VOC emissions for
storage tanks in the DFW (Serious) and
HGB (Severe) areas. See docket No.
EPA–R06–OAR–2012–0096 at
www.regulations.gov.
II. Public Comments
The public comment period for the
January 21, 2015 (80 FR 2846) proposal
expired on February 20, 2015, and we
did not receive any comments on the
proposed actions during this period.
Therefore, we are approving the January
21, 2015 (80 FR 2846) proposal without
any changes into the Texas SIP.
III. Submittals
The December 6, 2013 submittal
concerned rule revisions to 30 TAC,
Chapter 115 Control of Air Pollution
from Volatile Organic Compounds for
solvent using processes and surface
coating application systems. We are
approving all of this submittal into the
Texas SIP.
The January 17, 2012 submittal
concerned rule revisions to 30 TAC,
Chapter 115 Control of Air Pollution
from Volatile Organic Compounds
intended to implement RACT for both
HGB and DFW areas. The submittal will
limit VOC content of coatings and
solvents used in Flexible Package
Printing, Industrial Cleaning Solvents,
Large Appliance Coatings, Metal
Furniture Coatings, Paper, Film, and
Foil Coatings, Miscellaneous Industrial
Adhesives, Automobile and Light-Duty
Truck Assembly Coatings, and
Miscellaneous Metal and Plastic Parts
Coatings operations. We are approving
all of this submittal into the Texas SIP.
Another submittal also dated January
17, 2012 contained a corresponding
analysis to demonstrate RACT is in
place for multiple source categories in
the HGB area. We are approving that
RACT is in place for the source
categories listed in the paragraph above,
and we are approving the Flexographic
and Rotogravure Printing sector for the
HGB area of the RACT-related rule
PO 00000
Frm 00042
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
revisions which had not been
previously approved.
A third SIP submittal dated January
17, 2012 contained RACT analysis for
the DFW area. As a result of this
submittal, and consistent with section
182(c) of the Act, the VOC or NOx major
source threshold in the DFW area is
lowered to 50 Tons Per Year (TPY) from
100 TPY for RACT purposes under the
1997 8-Hour ozone standard. See EPA–
R06–OAR–2012–0098 at
www.regulations.gov. We are approving
the RACT analysis portion of this
submittal.
The April 6, 2010 attainment
demonstration submittal, among other
things, concerned revisions to 30 TAC,
Chapter 115 Control of Air Pollution
from Volatile Organic Compounds for
control of ozone pollution in the HGB
area. Appendix D of this attainment
demonstration plan was titled
‘‘Reasonably Available Control
Technology Analysis,’’ and included
source categories affected by the newly
EPA-issued Control Techniques
Guidelines (CTGs), and NOx emissions
sources. We are approving the RACT
analysis portion of this submittal.
The June 13, 2007 attainment
demonstration submittal concerned
revisions to 30 TAC, Chapter 115
Control of Air Pollution from Volatile
Organic Compounds. The June 13, 2007
submittal included an analysis intended
to demonstrate RACT was being
implemented in the HGB area as
required by the CAA (Appendix B of the
submittal). We are approving the RACT
analysis portion of this submittal.
The submittals concerning these
nonattainment areas are available at
www.regulations.gov, docket ID No.
EPA–R06–OAR–2013–0804 under the
‘‘supporting and related materials.’’
We are approving the abovementioned revisions, as well as
confirming the RACT finding for
revisions previously approved for
Texas, into the Texas SIP. We are
approving Texas’ RACT analysis as
meeting the RACT requirements for all
affected VOC and NOx sources for the
DFW and HGB areas for the 1997 8-Hour
ozone standard.
IV. Negative Declarations
The January 21, 2015 (80 FR 2846)
proposal included a list of source
categories that do not operate within
these nonattainment areas.
For the DFW area, Texas declared that
there were no fiberglass boat
manufacturing materials, ship building
and ship repair coating, leather tanning
and finishing, surface coating for flat
wood paneling, vegetable oil
manufacturing, plywood veneer dryers,

Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 59 / Friday, March 27, 2015 / Rules and Regulations
asabaliauskas on DSK5VPTVN1PROD with RULES
rubber tire manufacturing, and batch
processes operations. We are approving
the VOC RACT negative declaration for
these operations in the DFW area.
For the HGB area, on April 15, 2014
(79 FR 21144), we approved the VOC
RACT negative declarations for
fiberglass boat manufacturing materials,
leather tanning and finishing, surface
coating for flat wood paneling,
letterpress printing, automobile and
light-duty truck assembly coating,
rubber tire manufacturing, and vegetable
oil manufacturing operations. See 40
CFR 52.2270(e).
However, if a major source of these
categories locates in these
nonattainment areas in future, then
TCEQ will need to take appropriate
regulatory measures.
V. Final Actions
We are approving rule revisions to
sections 30 TAC chapter 115.422,
115.427, 115.429, 115.430, 115.432,
115.433, 115.435, 115.436, and 115.439
implementing controls on the following
source categories: Flat Wood Paneling
Coatings, Flexible Packaging Printing
Materials, Industrial Cleaning Solvents,
Offset Lithographic and Letterpress
Printing, Large Appliance Coatings,
Metal Furniture Coatings, Paper, Film,
and Foil Coatings, Auto and Light-Duty
Truck Assembly Coatings, Fiberglass
Boat Manufacturing Materials,
Miscellaneous Industrial Adhesives,
and Miscellaneous Metal and Plastic
Parts Coatings.
We are approving new sections 30
TAC chapter 115.431, 115.450, 115.451,
115.453–115.455, 115.458–115.461,
115.463–115.465, 115.468–115.471,
115.473–115.475, 115.478, and 115.479
implementing controls on the source
categories listed above.
We are approving repeal of section 30
TAC chapter 115.437.
We are approving to find that for VOC
CTG categories identified above, Texas
has RACT-level controls in place for the
HGB and DFW areas under the 1997 8Hour ozone standard.
We are approving to find that Texas
has RACT-level controls in place for the
Flexographic and Rotogravure Printing
operations for the HGB area.
We are approving the negative
declarations as explained in section IV
of this action.
We are approving NOx RACT for the
DFW area under the 1997 8-Hour ozone
standard.
In consideration of the above rule
revisions, as well as the rule revisions
previously approved and the rules in 30
TAC Chapters 115 and 117, we are
approving that, Texas is implementing
RACT for all affected VOC and NOx
VerDate Sep<11>2014
16:44 Mar 26, 2015
Jkt 235001
sources in the HGB and DFW areas
under the 1997 8-Hour ozone standard.
We are approving these revisions in
accordance with sections 110, 182, and
183 of the federal CAA.
The EPA had previously approved
RACT for all affected NOx sources for
the HGB area under the 1997 8-Hour
ozone standard.
The EPA had previously approved
RACT for all affected VOC and NOx
sources into Texas’ SIP under the 1Hour ozone standard.
VI. Incorporation by Reference
In this rule, we are finalizing
regulatory text that includes
incorporation by reference. In
accordance with the requirements of 1
CFR 51.4, we are finalizing the
incorporation by reference of the
revisions to the Texas regulations as
described in the Final Action section
above. We have made, and will continue
to make, these documents generally
available electronically through
www.regulation.gov, Docket ID. No.
EPA–R06–OAR–2013–0804.
VII. Statutory and Executive Order
Reviews
Under the Clean Air Act, the
Administrator is required to approve a
SIP submission that complies with the
provisions of the Act and applicable
Federal regulations. If a portion of the
plan revision meets all the applicable
requirements of this chapter and Federal
regulations, the Administrator may
approve the plan revision in part. 42
U.S.C. 7410(k); 40 CFR 52.02(a). Thus,
in reviewing SIP submissions, EPA’s
role is to approve state choices that meet
the criteria of the Act, and to disapprove
state choices that do not meet the
criteria of the Act. Accordingly, this
final action approves state law as
meeting Federal requirements and does
not impose additional requirements
beyond those imposed by state law. For
that reason, this final 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

Frm 00043
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
16293
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 Clean Air Act;
• 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); and
• 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.
Under section 307(b)(1) of the Clean
Air Act, petitions for judicial review of
this action must be filed in the United
States Court of Appeals for the
appropriate circuit by May 26, 2015.
Filing a petition for reconsideration by
the Administrator of this final rule does
not affect the finality of this action for
the purposed 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).)

II. Summary of Petitioned-For
Tolerance
In the Federal Register of January 28,
2015 (80 FR 4527) (FRL–9921–60), EPA
issued a document pursuant to FFDCA
section 408(d)(3), 21 U.S.C. 346a(d)(3),
announcing the filing of a pesticide
petition (PP [3F8210]) by Bayer
CropScience, 2 T.W. Alexander Dr.,
Research Triangle Park, NC 27709. The
petition requested that 40 CFR 180.435
be amended by establishing a tolerance
for residues of the insecticide
deltamethrin, (1R,3R)-R-cyano(3phenoxyphenyl)methyl 3-(2,2dibromoethenyl)-2,2dimethylcyclopropanecarboxylate, in or
on food and feed commodities at 0.05
parts per million (ppm) from use as a
wide-area mosquito adulticide. That
document referenced a summary of the
petition prepared by Bayer CropScience,
the registrant, which is available in the
docket, https://www.regulations.gov. One
comment was received on the notice of
filing. EPA’s response to the comment is
discussed in Unit IV.C.
III. Aggregate Risk Assessment and
Determination of Safety
Section 408(b)(2)(A)(i) of FFDCA
allows EPA to establish a tolerance (the
legal limit for a pesticide chemical
residue in or on a food) only if EPA
determines that the tolerance is ‘‘safe.’’
Section 408(b)(2)(A)(ii) of FFDCA
defines ‘‘safe’’ to mean that ‘‘there is a
reasonable certainty that no harm will
result from aggregate exposure to the
pesticide chemical residue, including
all anticipated dietary exposures and all
other exposures for which there is
reliable information.’’ This includes
exposure through drinking water and in
residential settings, but does not include
occupational exposure. Section
408(b)(2)(C) of FFDCA requires EPA to
give special consideration to exposure
of infants and children to the pesticide
chemical residue in establishing a
tolerance and to ‘‘ensure that there is a
reasonable certainty that no harm will
result to infants and children from

VII. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
I. Background
On January 21, 2014 (80 FR 2846) we proposed to approve revisions
to the Texas SIP that the TCEQ submitted to EPA in multiple RACT-
related rule revisions dated December 6, 2013, January 17, 2012, June
13, 2007, as well as the RACT analysis portions of attainment
demonstration plans of January 17, 2012, April 6, 2010, and June 13,
2007 for the DFW and HGB areas. Details of these submittals and their
evaluation were explained in our proposal, and its corresponding
Technical Supporting Document. A summary of these submittals is
described in section III.
On August 4, 2014 (79 FR 45105) we approved RACT for the Offset
Lithographic Printing Operations in the DFW (Serious) and HGB (Severe)
areas. See docket No. EPA-R06-OAR-2010-0332 at www.regulations.gov.
Also, on September 9, 2014 (79 FR 53299) we approved revisions to 30
TAC Chapter 115 for control of VOC emissions for storage tanks in the
DFW (Serious) and HGB (Severe) areas. See docket No. EPA-R06-OAR-2012-
0096 at www.regulations.gov.
II. Public Comments
The public comment period for the January 21, 2015 (80 FR 2846)
proposal expired on February 20, 2015, and we did not receive any
comments on the proposed actions during this period. Therefore, we are
approving the January 21, 2015 (80 FR 2846) proposal without any
changes into the Texas SIP.
III. Submittals
The December 6, 2013 submittal concerned rule revisions to 30 TAC,
Chapter 115 Control of Air Pollution from Volatile Organic Compounds
for solvent using processes and surface coating application systems. We
are approving all of this submittal into the Texas SIP.
The January 17, 2012 submittal concerned rule revisions to 30 TAC,
Chapter 115 Control of Air Pollution from Volatile Organic Compounds
intended to implement RACT for both HGB and DFW areas. The submittal
will limit VOC content of coatings and solvents used in Flexible
Package Printing, Industrial Cleaning Solvents, Large Appliance
Coatings, Metal Furniture Coatings, Paper, Film, and Foil Coatings,
Miscellaneous Industrial Adhesives, Automobile and Light-Duty Truck
Assembly Coatings, and Miscellaneous Metal and Plastic Parts Coatings
operations. We are approving all of this submittal into the Texas SIP.
Another submittal also dated January 17, 2012 contained a
corresponding analysis to demonstrate RACT is in place for multiple
source categories in the HGB area. We are approving that RACT is in
place for the source categories listed in the paragraph above, and we
are approving the Flexographic and Rotogravure Printing sector for the
HGB area of the RACT-related rule revisions which had not been
previously approved.
A third SIP submittal dated January 17, 2012 contained RACT
analysis for the DFW area. As a result of this submittal, and
consistent with section 182(c) of the Act, the VOC or NOx major source
threshold in the DFW area is lowered to 50 Tons Per Year (TPY) from 100
TPY for RACT purposes under the 1997 8-Hour ozone standard. See EPA-
R06-OAR-2012-0098 at www.regulations.gov. We are approving the RACT
analysis portion of this submittal.
The April 6, 2010 attainment demonstration submittal, among other
things, concerned revisions to 30 TAC, Chapter 115 Control of Air
Pollution from Volatile Organic Compounds for control of ozone
pollution in the HGB area. Appendix D of this attainment demonstration
plan was titled ``Reasonably Available Control Technology Analysis,''
and included source categories affected by the newly EPA-issued Control
Techniques Guidelines (CTGs), and NOx emissions sources. We are
approving the RACT analysis portion of this submittal.
The June 13, 2007 attainment demonstration submittal concerned
revisions to 30 TAC, Chapter 115 Control of Air Pollution from Volatile
Organic Compounds. The June 13, 2007 submittal included an analysis
intended to demonstrate RACT was being implemented in the HGB area as
required by the CAA (Appendix B of the submittal). We are approving the
RACT analysis portion of this submittal.
The submittals concerning these nonattainment areas are available
at www.regulations.gov, docket ID No. EPA-R06-OAR-2013-0804 under the
``supporting and related materials.''
We are approving the above-mentioned revisions, as well as
confirming the RACT finding for revisions previously approved for
Texas, into the Texas SIP. We are approving Texas' RACT analysis as
meeting the RACT requirements for all affected VOC and NOx sources for
the DFW and HGB areas for the 1997 8-Hour ozone standard.
IV. Negative Declarations
The January 21, 2015 (80 FR 2846) proposal included a list of
source categories that do not operate within these nonattainment areas.
For the DFW area, Texas declared that there were no fiberglass boat
manufacturing materials, ship building and ship repair coating, leather
tanning and finishing, surface coating for flat wood paneling,
vegetable oil manufacturing, plywood veneer dryers,
[[Page 16293]]
rubber tire manufacturing, and batch processes operations. We are
approving the VOC RACT negative declaration for these operations in the
DFW area.
For the HGB area, on April 15, 2014 (79 FR 21144), we approved the
VOC RACT negative declarations for fiberglass boat manufacturing
materials, leather tanning and finishing, surface coating for flat wood
paneling, letterpress printing, automobile and light-duty truck
assembly coating, rubber tire manufacturing, and vegetable oil
manufacturing operations. See 40 CFR 52.2270(e).
However, if a major source of these categories locates in these
nonattainment areas in future, then TCEQ will need to take appropriate
regulatory measures.
V. Final Actions
We are approving rule revisions to sections 30 TAC chapter 115.422,
115.427, 115.429, 115.430, 115.432, 115.433, 115.435, 115.436, and
115.439 implementing controls on the following source categories: Flat
Wood Paneling Coatings, Flexible Packaging Printing Materials,
Industrial Cleaning Solvents, Offset Lithographic and Letterpress
Printing, Large Appliance Coatings, Metal Furniture Coatings, Paper,
Film, and Foil Coatings, Auto and Light-Duty Truck Assembly Coatings,
Fiberglass Boat Manufacturing Materials, Miscellaneous Industrial
Adhesives, and Miscellaneous Metal and Plastic Parts Coatings.
We are approving new sections 30 TAC chapter 115.431, 115.450,
115.451, 115.453-115.455, 115.458-115.461, 115.463-115.465, 115.468-
115.471, 115.473-115.475, 115.478, and 115.479 implementing controls on
the source categories listed above.
We are approving repeal of section 30 TAC chapter 115.437.
We are approving to find that for VOC CTG categories identified
above, Texas has RACT-level controls in place for the HGB and DFW areas
under the 1997 8-Hour ozone standard.
We are approving to find that Texas has RACT-level controls in
place for the Flexographic and Rotogravure Printing operations for the
HGB area.
We are approving the negative declarations as explained in section
IV of this action.
We are approving NOx RACT for the DFW area under the 1997 8-Hour
ozone standard.
In consideration of the above rule revisions, as well as the rule
revisions previously approved and the rules in 30 TAC Chapters 115 and
117, we are approving that, Texas is implementing RACT for all affected
VOC and NOx sources in the HGB and DFW areas under the 1997 8-Hour
ozone standard.
We are approving these revisions in accordance with sections 110,
182, and 183 of the federal CAA.
The EPA had previously approved RACT for all affected NOx sources
for the HGB area under the 1997 8-Hour ozone standard.
The EPA had previously approved RACT for all affected VOC and NOx
sources into Texas' SIP under the 1-Hour ozone standard.
VI. Incorporation by Reference
In this rule, we are finalizing regulatory text that includes
incorporation by reference. In accordance with the requirements of 1
CFR 51.4, we are finalizing the incorporation by reference of the
revisions to the Texas regulations as described in the Final Action
section above. We have made, and will continue to make, these documents
generally available electronically through www.regulation.gov, Docket
ID. No. EPA-R06-OAR-2013-0804.
VII. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
Under the Clean Air Act, the Administrator is required to approve a
SIP submission that complies with the provisions of the Act and
applicable Federal regulations. If a portion of the plan revision meets
all the applicable requirements of this chapter and Federal
regulations, the Administrator may approve the plan revision in part.
42 U.S.C. 7410(k); 40 CFR 52.02(a). Thus, in reviewing SIP submissions,
EPA's role is to approve state choices that meet the criteria of the
Act, and to disapprove state choices that do not meet the criteria of
the Act. Accordingly, this final action approves state law as meeting
Federal requirements and does not impose additional requirements beyond
those imposed by state law. For that reason, this final 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.);

governments or preempt tribal law.
