tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
to EPA, as provided for under
previously approved automatic
delegation mechanisms. All
notifications, applications, reports and
other correspondence required pursuant
to the delegated NESHAP and NSPS
must be submitted to both the US EPA
Region III and to the West Virginia
Department of Environmental
Protection, unless the delegated
standard specifically provides that such
submittals may be sent to EPA or a
delegated State. In such cases, the
submittals should be sent only to the
West Virginia Department of
Environmental Protection. A copy of
EPA’s June 24, 2015 letter to West
Virginia follows:
‘‘Mr. William F. Durham, Director
Division of Air Quality
West Virginia Department of
Environmental Protection
601 57th Street
Charleston, West Virginia 25304
Dear Mr. Durham:
The United States Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA) has previously
delegated to the State of West Virginia (West
Virginia) the authority to implement and
enforce various federal National Emissions
Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants
(NESHAP) and New Source Performance
Standards (NSPS), which are found at 40 CFR
parts 60, 61 and 63.1 In those actions EPA
also delegated to West Virginia the authority
to implement and enforce any future EPA
NESHAP or NSPS on the condition that West
Virginia legally adopt the future standards,
make only allowed wording changes, and
provide specified notice to EPA.
In a letter dated June 8, 2015, West Virginia
informed EPA that West Virginia had
updated its incorporation by reference of
federal NESHAP and NSPS to include many
such standards as found in 40 CFR parts 60,
61, and 63 as of June 1, 2014. West Virginia
noted that it understood that it was
automatically delegated the authority to
implement these standards. West Virginia
committed to enforcing the standards in
conformance with the terms of EPA’s
previous delegations of authority. West
Virginia made only allowed wording
changes.
West Virginia provided copies of the
revised West Virginia Legislative Rules
which specify the NESHAP and NSPS which
West Virginia has adopted by reference.
These revised Legislative Rules are entitled
45 CSR 34—‘‘Emission Standards for
Hazardous Air Pollutants,’’ and 45 CSR 16—
‘‘Standards of Performance for New
Stationary Sources.’’ These revised Rules
have an effective date of June 1, 2015.
Accordingly, EPA acknowledges that West
Virginia now has the authority, as provided
for under the terms of EPA’s previous
delegation actions, to implement and enforce
the NESHAP and NSPS standards which
1 EPA has posted copies of these actions at:
https://www.epa.gov/reg3artd/airregulations/
delegate/wvdelegation.htm.
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 235001
West Virginia has adopted by reference in
West Virginia’s revised Legislative Rules 45
CSR 34 and 45 CSR 16, both effective on June
1, 2015.
Please note that on December 19, 2008 in
Sierra Club vs. EPA,2 the United States Court
of Appeals for the District of Columbia
Circuit vacated certain provisions of the
General Provisions of 40 CFR part 63 relating
to exemptions for startup, shutdown, and
malfunction (SSM). On October 16, 2009, the
Court issued the mandate vacating these SSM
exemption provisions, which are found at 40
CFR part 63, § 63.6(f)(1) and (h)(1).
Accordingly, EPA no longer allows sources
the SSM exemption as provided for in the
vacated provisions at 40 CFR part 63,
§ 63.6(f)(1) and (h)(1), even though EPA has
not yet formally removed the SSM exemption
provisions from the General Provisions of 40
CFR part 63. Because West Virginia
incorporated 40 CFR part 63 by reference,
West Virginia should also no longer allow
sources to use the former SSM exemption
from the General Provisions of 40 CFR part
63 due to the Court’s ruling in Sierra Club
vs. EPA.
EPA appreciates West Virginia’s
continuing NESHAP and NSPS enforcement
efforts, and also West Virginia’s decision to
take automatic delegation of additional and
more recent NESHAP and NSPS by adopting
them by reference.
Sincerely,
Diana Esher, Director
Air Protection Division’’
This notice acknowledges the update
of West Virginia’s delegation of
authority to implement and enforce
NESHAP and NSPS.
Dated: September 15, 2015.
Diana Esher,
Director, Air Protection Division, Region III.

Title: Application for Antenna
Structure Registration.
Form Number: FCC Form 854.
Type of Review: Revision of a
currently approved collection.
Respondents: Individuals or
households, business or other for-profit
entities, not-for-profit institutions, and
State, local, or Tribal governments.
Number of Respondents and
Responses: 2,400 respondents; 57,100
responses.
Estimated Time per Response: .33
hours to 2.5 hours.
Frequency of Response: On occasion
reporting requirement, recordkeeping
requirement and third party disclosure
reporting requirement.
Obligation to Respond: Required to
obtain or retain benefits. Statutory
authority for this information collection
is contained in sections 1, 2, 4(i), 303,
and 309(j) of the Communications Act of
1934, as amended, 47 U.S.C. 151, 152,
154(i), 303, and 309(j), section 102(C) of
the National Environmental Policy Act
of 1969, as amended, 42 U.S.C. 4332(C),
and section 1506.6 of the regulations of
the Council on Environmental Quality,
40 CFR 1506.6.
Total Annual Burden: 25,682 hours.
Total Annual Cost: $1,176,813.
Privacy Act Impact Assessment: Yes.
This information collection contains
personally identifiable information on
individuals which is subject to the
Privacy Act of 1974. Information on the
FCC Form 854 is maintained in the
Commission’s System of Records, FCC/
WTB–1, ‘‘Wireless Services Licensing
Records.’’ These licensee records are
publicly available and routinely used in
accordance of subsection b of the
Privacy Act, 5 U.S.C. 552a(b), as
amended. Taxpayer Identification
Numbers (TINs) and materials that are
afforded confidential treatment
pursuant to a request made under 47
CFR 0.459 of the Commission’s rules
will not be available for public
inspection.
Nature and Extent of Confidentiality:
Respondents may request materials or
information submitted to the
Commission be withheld from public
inspection under 47 CFR 0.459 of the
Commission’s rules.
The Commission has in place the
following policy and procedures for
records retention and disposal: Records
will be actively maintained as long as
the entity remains a tower owner. Paper
records will be archived after being
keyed or scanned into the Antenna
Structure Registration (ASR) database
and destroyed when twelve (12) years
old.
Needs and Uses: As discussed below,
the Commission is revising the FCC
Form 854 to implement measures
adopted in a recent Report and Order,
and is seeking Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) approval for this
information collection as revised. The
Commission is also reporting a change
in the annual burden and annual cost
due to a small increase in the number
of responses. After the comment period,
the Commission will submit the revised
information collection to OMB to obtain
the full three year clearance.
The purpose of the FCC Form 854 is
to register antenna structures (radio
towers) that are used for communication
services regulated by the Commission;
to make changes to existing antenna
structure registrations or pending
applications for registration; or to notify
the Commission of the completion of
construction or dismantlement of such
structures, as required by Title 47 of the
Code of Federal Regulations (CFR),
chapter 1. In addition, for proposed new
antenna structures, the FCC Form 854 is
used to facilitate a pre-application
public notification process, including a
required 30-day period of local and
national notice to provide members of
the public with a meaningful
opportunity to comment on the
environmental effects of proposed
antenna structures that require
registration with the Commission.
The Commission is revising this
current information collection due to
the adoption of a Report and Order, FCC
14–117, which streamlined and
eliminated outdated provisions of the
Commission’s part 17 rules governing
the construction, marking, and lighting
57611
of antenna structures. The changes to
this collection are necessary to
implement two of the updates adopted
in the Report and Order. The first
change, to section 17.4(j), requires
owners of certain antenna structures to
file FCC Form 854 with the Commission
if there is any change or correction in
the overall height of one foot or greater
or in the coordinates of one second or
greater in longitude or latitude of a
registered antenna structure. The second
change, to section 17.4(b), requires
owners to note on FCC Form 854 that
the registration is voluntary, if the
antenna structure is otherwise not
required to be registered under section
17.4.
As a result, there will be a small
increase in the number of FCC Form
854s filed each year, as well as an
additional question added to the form
itself which will permit qualified
applicants to indicate that they are
voluntarily registering their antenna
structures. These changes will enable
the Commission to further modernize its
rules while adhering to its statutory
responsibility to prevent antenna
structures from being hazards to air
navigation.
