We proposed to approve ICAPCD’s
2009 RACT SIP and negative
declarations because we determined
that they complied with the relevant
CAA requirements. Our proposed action
contains more information on the
submitted document and our
evaluation.
II. Public Comments and EPA
Responses
The EPA’s proposed action provided
a 30-day public comment period. During
this period, we received no comments.
III. EPA Action
No comments were submitted.
Therefore, as authorized in section
110(k)(3) of the Act, the EPA is fully
approving this document, including the
negative declarations, into the California
SIP.

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, the 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) 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, this approved action does
not 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 rules do 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. The 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 January 11, 2016.
Filing a petition for reconsideration by
the Administrator of this final rule does
not affect the finality of this action for

Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
The Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) is taking final action
under section 110 of the Clean Air Act
(CAA or Act) to approve a State
Implementation Plan (SIP) revision for
five California air districts. The State of
California (State) is required by the CAA
to adopt and implement a SIP-approved
Prevention of Significant Deterioration
(PSD) permit program. This SIP revision
incorporates PSD rules for five local
California air districts into the
California SIP to establish a PSD permit
program for pre-construction review of
certain new and modified major
stationary sources in attainment and
unclassifiable areas located within these
districts. The local air districts with PSD
rules that are the subject of this action
are the Feather River Air Quality
Management District (Feather River or
FRAQMD), Great Basin Unified Air
Pollution Control District (Great Basin
or GBUAPCD), Butte County Air Quality
Management District (Butte or
BCAQMD), Santa Barbara County Air
Pollution Control District (Santa Barbara
or SBAPCD), and San Luis Obispo
County Air Pollution Control District
(San Luis Obispo or SLOAPCD)—
collectively, the Districts.
DATES: This rule is effective on
December 14, 2015.
ADDRESSES: The EPA has established
docket number EPA–R09–OAR–2015–
SUMMARY:
0257 for this action. Generally,
documents in the docket for this action
are available electronically at

III. The EPA’s Final Action
IV. Incorporation by Reference
V. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
I. Background
Section 110(a) of the CAA requires
states to adopt and submit regulations
for the implementation, maintenance
and enforcement of the primary and
secondary NAAQS. Specifically,
sections 110(a)(2)(C), 110(a)(2)(D)(i)(II),
and 110(a)(2)(J) of the Act require such
state plans to meet the applicable
requirements of section 165 relating to
a pre-construction permit program for
the prevention of significant
deterioration of air quality and visibility
protection. The rules reviewed for this
action are intended to implement a preconstruction PSD permit program as
required by section 165 of the CAA for
certain new and modified major
stationary sources located in attainment
and unclassifiable areas. Because the
State does not currently have a SIPapproved PSD program within the
Districts, the EPA is currently the PSD
permitting authority within these
Districts under a Federal
Implementation Plan (FIP). Approval of
the Districts’ PSD rules into the SIP will
transfer PSD permitting authority from
the EPA to the Districts. The EPA will
then assume the role of overseeing the
Districts’ PSD permitting programs, as
intended by the CAA.
For a more detailed discussion of the
District’s rules, please refer to our
proposed approval. See 80 FR 44001
(July 24, 2015).
II. The EPA’s Evaluation of the SIP
Revision
A. Summary of the EPA's Proposed
Action
On July 24, 2015 (80 FR 44001), the
EPA proposed approval of the Districts’
PSD rules into the California SIP. We
proposed to approve these rules because
we determined that they satisfied the
applicable CAA requirements. Our
proposed rule and related Technical
Support document (TSD) contain more
information about the basis for this
rulemaking and our evaluation of the
pertinent State SIP revision submittals.
B. Public Comments and the EPA's
Responses
EPA’s proposed approval action for
this SIP revision provided a 30-day
public comment period. We did not
receive any comments on our proposed
action.
C. What action is the EPA finalizing?
The EPA is finalizing a SIP revision
for each District’s portion of the
California SIP, consistent with our
proposed approval action. The SIP
revision will be codified in 40 CFR
52.220 by incorporating by reference the
rules listed in Table 1. On June 1, 2015,
the California Air Resources Board
(CARB) requested the withdrawal from
its earlier SIP submittals of the portion
of each District PSD rule that
incorporates by reference a particular
federal PSD rule provision—40 CFR
52.21(b)(49)(v). As such, our approval of
these local District rules does not
include the rules’ incorporation by

We proposed to approve ICAPCD's 2009 RACT SIP and negative
declarations because we determined that they complied with the relevant
CAA requirements. Our proposed action contains more information on the
submitted document and our evaluation.
II. Public Comments and EPA Responses
The EPA's proposed action provided a 30-day public comment period.
During this period, we received no comments.
III. EPA Action
No comments were submitted. Therefore, as authorized in section
110(k)(3) of the Act, the EPA is fully approving this document,
including the negative declarations, into the California SIP.
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, the 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) 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, this approved action does not 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 rules do 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. The 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 January 11, 2016. 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)).
