SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
The background for this action is
discussed in detail in our February 10,
2015 direct final rule and proposal (80
FR 7341). The rule and proposal stated
that if any relevant adverse comments
were received by the end of the public
comment period, the direct final rule
would be withdrawn and we would
respond to the comments in a
subsequent final action. A relevant
adverse comment was received during
the comment period, and the direct final
rule was withdrawn on April 8, 2015
(80 FR 19020). Our proposal provides
the basis for this final action. These
revisions amend the transportation
conformity SIP provisions and remove
the general conformity provisions from
the SIP, as allowed by the Act’s 2005
amendments. These revisions also
address interagency consultation and
enforceability of certain transportationrelated control measures and mitigation
measures.
We received one comment on the
direct final rule by one commenter,
Sierra Club. The comment and our
response to the comment is below.
AGENCY:
II. Response to Comments
Under the Federal Clean Air
Act (Act), the Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) is approving revisions to
the New Mexico State Implementation
Plan (SIP). These revisions update the
transportation conformity rules and
remove the general conformity
provisions.
DATES: This rule is effective on July 20,
2015.
ADDRESSES: EPA has established a
docket for this action under Docket ID
No. EPA–R06–OAR–2011–0938. All
documents in the docket are listed on
Comment: ‘‘Acting regional
administrator Sam Coleman cannot sign
approvals, disapprovals, or any
combination of approvals or
disapproval, in whole or in part, due to
the fact that agency actions on state
implementation plans are required to be
signed by the regional administrator,
Ron Curry, not the current deputy
regional administrator as stated in the
agency’s delegations manual. The
manual specifically states that SIP
actions can’t be redelegated from the
regional administrator.’’
Response: As the Acting Regional
Administrator, Deputy Regional
Administrator Sam Coleman had
Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Final rule.

authority to sign the proposal and direct
final action on the SIP revisions. On
January 28, 2015, the day that the
proposal and direct final action were
signed, Sam Coleman was acting in the
capacity of the Regional Administrator
for Ron Curry, who was absent from
Region 6 at the time. The following
language is listed in the Region 6
Deputy Regional Administrator’s
position description ‘‘In the absence of
the Regional Administrator, the Deputy
Regional Administrator will perform the
duties of the Regional Administrator.’’
Further, EPA Region 6 Order 1110.11
establishes a line of succession to
perform the duties of the Regional
Administrator should the Regional
Administrator be absent from the office.
The Deputy Regional Administrator is
the first person listed on that line of
succession. Copies of the two
documents are included in the docket
for this rulemaking. Finally, the heads
of administrative agencies are statutorily
vested with the authority to delegate
authorities to subordinate officials, 5
U.S.C. 302. Federal Courts have held
that rules, including internal
delegations and appointments of
authority are effective regardless of
publication in the Federal Register or
the Code of Federal Regulations.
The comment only challenged the
Deputy Regional Administrator’s
authority to sign the Direct Final Action.
EPA received no other comments or
challenges as to the substance of the
proposal or direct final. Therefore, we
are finalizing our action to approve
these SIP amendments.
III. Final Action
Pursuant to sections 110 and 176 of
the Act, EPA is approving three
revisions to the New Mexico SIP that
were submitted on October 28, 2011,
November 1, 2013, and August 8, 2014.
We evaluated the state’s submittals and
determined that they meet the
applicable requirements of the CAA
sections 110 and 176 and applicable
EPA guidance. In accordance with CAA
section 110(l), these revisions will not
interfere with attainment of the NAAQS,
reasonable further progress, or any other
applicable requirement of the CAA.
IV. Incorporation by Reference
In this rule, we are finalizing
regulatory text that includes
incorporation by reference. In
accordance with the requirements of 1
CFR 51.5, we are finalizing the
incorporation by reference of the
revisions to the New Mexico regulations
as described in the Final Action section
above. We have made, and will continue
to make, these documents generally

available electronically through
www.regulations.gov and/or in hard
copy at the EPA Region 6 office.
V. 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 CAA. Accordingly,
this action merely proposes to approve
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
• 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).
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 as specified by Executive
Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9,
2000), nor will it 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. EPA will submit a
report containing this rule 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 17, 2015. Filing a
petition for reconsideration by the
Administrator of this final rule does not
affect the finality of this rule 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)).

The Health and Human

a final rule that appeared in the Federal
Register of December 6, 2012. The
document modified the dispensing
requirements buprenorphine and
buprenorphine combination products
approved by the Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) for opioid
dependence and used in federally
certified and registered opioid treatment
programs. In particular, this rule allows
opioid treatment programs more
flexibility in dispensing take-home
supplies of buprenorphine after the
assessment and documentation of a
patient’s responsibility and stability to
receive opioid addiction treatment
medication. However, an inadvertent
removal of paragraphs was made. This
correction reinstates the missing
paragraphs.

On
December 6, 2012 (77 FR 72752), HHS
published a final rule in the Federal
Register modifying the dispensing
requirements in 42 CFR 8.12 for
buprenorphine and buprenorphine
combination products approved by FDA
for opioid dependence and used in
federally certified and registered opioid
treatment programs. An inadvertent
error was made whereby § 8.12(i)(3)(i)
through (vi) was deleted. The original
intention was only to revise § 8.12(i)(3)
introductory text, however, this was not
made clear and thus the entire section
following the introductory text was
removed. This correction properly
modifies the dispensing requirements in
42 CFR 8.12 as published in the Federal
Register on December 6, 2012, without
removing § 8.12(i)(3)(i) through (vi).

Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans;
New Mexico; Transportation Conformity and Conformity of General Federal
Actions
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: Under the Federal Clean Air Act (Act), the Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA) is approving revisions to the New Mexico State
Implementation Plan (SIP). These revisions update the transportation
conformity rules and remove the general conformity provisions.
DATES: This rule is effective on July 20, 2015.
ADDRESSES: EPA has established a docket for this action under Docket ID
No. EPA-R06-OAR-2011-0938. All documents in the docket are listed on
the https://www.regulations.gov Web site. Although listed in the index,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
The background for this action is discussed in detail in our
February 10, 2015 direct final rule and proposal (80 FR 7341). The rule
and proposal stated that if any relevant adverse comments were received
by the end of the public comment period, the direct final rule would be
withdrawn and we would respond to the comments in a subsequent final
action. A relevant adverse comment was received during the comment
period, and the direct final rule was withdrawn on April 8, 2015 (80 FR
19020). Our proposal provides the basis for this final action. These
revisions amend the transportation conformity SIP provisions and remove
the general conformity provisions from the SIP, as allowed by the Act's
2005 amendments. These revisions also address interagency consultation
and enforceability of certain transportation-related control measures
and mitigation measures.
We received one comment on the direct final rule by one commenter,
Sierra Club. The comment and our response to the comment is below.
II. Response to Comments
Comment: ``Acting regional administrator Sam Coleman cannot sign
approvals, disapprovals, or any combination of approvals or
disapproval, in whole or in part, due to the fact that agency actions
on state implementation plans are required to be signed by the regional
administrator, Ron Curry, not the current deputy regional administrator
as stated in the agency's delegations manual. The manual specifically
states that SIP actions can't be redelegated from the regional
administrator.''
Response: As the Acting Regional Administrator, Deputy Regional
Administrator Sam Coleman had authority to sign the proposal and direct
final action on the SIP revisions. On January 28, 2015, the day that
the proposal and direct final action were signed, Sam Coleman was
acting in the capacity of the Regional Administrator for Ron Curry, who
was absent from Region 6 at the time. The following language is listed
in the Region 6 Deputy Regional Administrator's position description
``In the absence of the Regional Administrator, the Deputy Regional
Administrator will perform the duties of the Regional Administrator.''
Further, EPA Region 6 Order 1110.11 establishes a line of succession to
perform the duties of the Regional Administrator should the Regional
Administrator be absent from the office. The Deputy Regional
Administrator is the first person listed on that line of succession.
Copies of the two documents are included in the docket for this
rulemaking. Finally, the heads of administrative agencies are
statutorily vested with the authority to delegate authorities to
subordinate officials, 5 U.S.C. 302. Federal Courts have held that
rules, including internal delegations and appointments of authority are
effective regardless of publication in the Federal Register or the Code
of Federal Regulations.
The comment only challenged the Deputy Regional Administrator's
authority to sign the Direct Final Action. EPA received no other
comments or challenges as to the substance of the proposal or direct
final. Therefore, we are finalizing our action to approve these SIP
amendments.
III. Final Action
Pursuant to sections 110 and 176 of the Act, EPA is approving three
revisions to the New Mexico SIP that were submitted on October 28,
2011, November 1, 2013, and August 8, 2014. We evaluated the state's
submittals and determined that they meet the applicable requirements of
the CAA sections 110 and 176 and applicable EPA guidance. In accordance
with CAA section 110(l), these revisions will not interfere with
attainment of the NAAQS, reasonable further progress, or any other
applicable requirement of the CAA.
IV. Incorporation by Reference
In this rule, we are finalizing regulatory text that includes
incorporation by reference. In accordance with the requirements of 1
CFR 51.5, we are finalizing the incorporation by reference of the
revisions to the New Mexico regulations as described in the Final
Action section above. We have made, and will continue to make, these
documents generally
[[Page 34836]]
available electronically through www.regulations.gov and/or in hard
copy at the EPA Region 6 office.
V. 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 CAA. Accordingly,
this action merely proposes to approve 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
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).
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 as specified by Executive Order 13175 (65
FR 67249, November 9, 2000), nor will it 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. EPA will submit a report containing this rule 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 17, 2015. Filing a petition for
reconsideration by the Administrator of this final rule does not affect
the finality of this rule 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)).
