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 CAA,
petitions for judicial review of this
action must be filed in the United States
Court of Appeals for the appropriate
circuit by December 4, 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)).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
Upon promulgation of a new or
revised NAAQS, sections 110(a)(1) and
E:\FR\FM\05OCR1.SGM
05OCR1
60046
Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 192 / Monday, October 5, 2015 / Rules and Regulations
(2) of the CAA require states to address
basic SIP requirements, including
emissions inventories, monitoring, and
modeling to assure attainment and
maintenance for that new NAAQS.
Section 110(a) of the CAA generally
requires states to make a SIP submission
to meet applicable requirements in
order to provide for the implementation,
maintenance, and enforcement of a new
or revised NAAQS within three years
following the promulgation of such
NAAQS, or within such shorter period
as EPA may prescribe. For additional
information on the infrastructure SIP
requirements, see the proposed
rulemaking published on July 24, 2015
(80 FR 44005).
On July 24, 2015, EPA proposed to
approve portions of Georgia’s March 6,
2012, 2008 Lead NAAQS infrastructure
SIP submission with the exception of
provisions pertaining to PSD permitting
in sections 110(a)(2)(C), prong 3 of D(i)
and (J). EPA did not receive any
comments, adverse or otherwise, on the
July 24, 2015, proposed rule. EPA took
final action to approve the PSD
permitting requirements in sections
110(a)(2)(C), prong 3 of D(i) and (J) on
March 18, 2015 (80 FR 14019).

II. Final Action
With the exception of provisions
pertaining to PSD permitting
requirements described above, EPA is
taking final action to approve Georgia’s
March 6, 2012, infrastructure
submission because it addresses the
CAA 110(a)(1) and (2) infrastructure SIP
requirements to ensure that the 2008
Lead NAAQS is implemented, enforced,
and maintained in Georgia.
III. Statutory and Executive Order
Reviews
Under the CAA, the Administrator is
required to approve a SIP submission
that complies with the provisions of the
Act and applicable Federal regulations.
See 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 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
VerDate Sep<11>2014
16:55 Oct 02, 2015
Jkt 238001
Management and Budget under
Executive Orders 12866 (58 FR 51735,
October 4, 1993) and 13563 (76 FR 3821,
January 21, 2011);
• 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, as
appropriate, disproportionate human
health or environmental effects, using
practicable and legally permissible
methods, under Executive Order 12898
(59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).
In addition, 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
PO 00000
Frm 00020

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 CAA,
petitions for judicial review of this
action must be filed in the United States
Court of Appeals for the appropriate
circuit by December 4, 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. This action may not
be challenged later in proceedings to
enforce its requirements. See section
307(b)(2).

Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans; Georgia
Infrastructure Requirements for the 2008 Lead NAAQS
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is taking final
action to approve portions of the March 6, 2012, State Implementation
Plan (SIP) submission, provided by the State of Georgia, through the
Georgia Department of Natural Resources' Environmental Protection
Division (EPD) for inclusion into the Georgia SIP. This final
submission pertains to the Clean Air Act (CAA or the Act)
infrastructure requirements for the 2008 Lead national ambient air
quality standards (NAAQS). The CAA requires that each state adopt and
submit a SIP for the implementation, maintenance, and enforcement of
each NAAQS promulgated by EPA, which is commonly referred to as an
``infrastructure'' SIP. EPD certified that the Georgia SIP contains
provisions that ensure the 2008 Lead NAAQS is implemented, enforced,
and maintained in Georgia. With the exception of provisions pertaining
to prevention of significant deterioration (PSD) permitting which EPA
has already approved, EPA is taking final action to approve Georgia's
infrastructure submission, provided to EPA on March 6, 2012, as
satisfying the required infrastructure elements for the 2008 Lead
NAAQS.
DATES: This rule will be effective November 4, 2015.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
Upon promulgation of a new or revised NAAQS, sections 110(a)(1) and
[[Page 60046]]
(2) of the CAA require states to address basic SIP requirements,
including emissions inventories, monitoring, and modeling to assure
attainment and maintenance for that new NAAQS. Section 110(a) of the
CAA generally requires states to make a SIP submission to meet
applicable requirements in order to provide for the implementation,
maintenance, and enforcement of a new or revised NAAQS within three
years following the promulgation of such NAAQS, or within such shorter
period as EPA may prescribe. For additional information on the
infrastructure SIP requirements, see the proposed rulemaking published
on July 24, 2015 (80 FR 44005).
On July 24, 2015, EPA proposed to approve portions of Georgia's
March 6, 2012, 2008 Lead NAAQS infrastructure SIP submission with the
exception of provisions pertaining to PSD permitting in sections
110(a)(2)(C), prong 3 of D(i) and (J). EPA did not receive any
comments, adverse or otherwise, on the July 24, 2015, proposed rule.
EPA took final action to approve the PSD permitting requirements in
sections 110(a)(2)(C), prong 3 of D(i) and (J) on March 18, 2015 (80 FR
14019).
II. Final Action
With the exception of provisions pertaining to PSD permitting
requirements described above, EPA is taking final action to approve
Georgia's March 6, 2012, infrastructure submission because it addresses
the CAA 110(a)(1) and (2) infrastructure SIP requirements to ensure
that the 2008 Lead NAAQS is implemented, enforced, and maintained in
Georgia.
III. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
Under the CAA, the Administrator is required to approve a SIP
submission that complies with the provisions of the Act and applicable
Federal regulations. See 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 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 Orders 12866 (58
FR 51735, October 4, 1993) and 13563 (76 FR 3821, January 21, 2011);
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, as appropriate, disproportionate human health or environmental
effects, using practicable and legally permissible methods, under
Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).
In addition, 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
