Clean Air Act Operating Permit Program; Petitions for Objection 
to State Operating Permit for the U.S. Department of Energy-Hanford 
Operations, Benton County, Washington

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice of final action.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

[[Page 39772]]

SUMMARY: Pursuant to Clean Air Act (CAA) Section 505(b)(2) and 40 CFR 
70.8(d), the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Administrator signed 
an Order, dated May 29, 2015, partially granting and partially denying 
two petitions filed by Bill Green of Richland, Washington (dated April 
23, 2013, and April 21, 2014) asking the EPA to object to the title V 
operating permit (Permit No. 00-05-006, Renewal 2 and Permit No. 00-05-
006, Renewal 2, Revision A) issued by the Washington State Department 
of Ecology (Ecology) to the U.S. Department of Energy-Hanford 
Operations (DOE) relating to the Hanford site located in south central 
Washington. Sections 307(b) and 505(b)(2) of the CAA provide that a 
petitioner may ask for judicial review by the United States Court of 
Appeals for the appropriate circuit of those portions of the Order that 
denies objections raised in the petitions.

DATES: Petitions for review of this Order must be filed by September 8, 
2015, pursuant to section 307(b) of the CAA.

ADDRESSES: You may review copies of the final Order, the petitions, and 
other supporting information during normal business hours at EPA Region 
10, 1200 Sixth Avenue, Seattle, Washington. If you wish to examine 
these documents, you should make an appointment at least 24 hours 
before the visiting day. Additionally, the final Order is available 
electronically at: https://www.epa.gov/region07/air/title5/petitiondb/petitions/hanford_response2014.pdf.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Don Dossett at telephone number: (206) 
553-1783, email address: dossett.donald@epa.gov, or the above EPA 
Region 10 address.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The CAA affords the EPA a 45-day period to 
review, and object to, as appropriate, a title V operating permit 
proposed by a state permitting authority. Section 505(b)(2) of the CAA 
authorizes any person to petition the EPA Administrator, within 60 days 
after the expiration of this review period, to object to a title V 
operating permit if the EPA has not done so. Petitions must be based 
only on objections to the permit that were raised with reasonable 
specificity during the public comment period provided by the state, 
unless the petitioner demonstrates that it was impracticable to raise 
these issues during the comment period or that the grounds for the 
objection or other issues arose after this period.
    The claims are described in detail in Section IV of the Order. In 
summary, the issues raised are that: (1) The structure of the Hanford 
Title V Permit does not provide Ecology the authority to issue a permit 
that assures compliance with all applicable requirements, in 
particular, 40 CFR part 61, subpart H (Subpart H) relating to 
radionuclide air emissions (radionuclides); (2) the structure of the 
Hanford Title V Permit does not provide Ecology with authority to 
enforce the portions of the Hanford Title V Permit relating to Subpart 
H; (3) Ecology did not comply with the requirements for public 
participation in issuing the Hanford Title V Permit; (4) the permit 
issuance procedures for the Hanford Title V Permit prevent access to 
judicial review; (5) the statement of basis for the Hanford Title V 
Permit related to radionuclides is inadequate; and (6) the Hanford 
Title V Permit does not include all applicable CAA Section 112 
requirements for radionuclides.
    The EPA's rationale for partially granting and partially denying 
the claims raised in the petitions is described in the Order.

    Dated: June 22, 2015.
Dennis J. McLerran,
Regional Administrator, EPA Region 10.
