I. Background
On November 4, 2008, Iowa submitted
several revisions to EPA for approval
into the SIP. On December 30, 2009,
EPA took direct final action to approve
the revisions to the SIP. (74 FR 68692).
However, EPA did not act on several
state administrative regulations that
provided for electronic submittal of
emissions inventory information,
construction permit applications, and
Title V operating permit applications, as
Iowa had not obtained approval of its
electronic document receiving system as
required by the Cross-Media Electronic
Reporting Rule (CROMERR) found at 40
CFR part 3 (70 FR 59848). Therefore,
EPA did not take action on the
electronic emissions inventory
submittal provisions of Iowa
Administrative Code (IAC) 567–21.1(3).
On December 9, 2015, EPA approved
Iowa’s CROMERR application for
electronic reporting of emissions
information through its State and Local
Emissions Inventory System (SLEIS).
(80 FR 76474). Accordingly, EPA is
approving IAC 567–21–1(3) in to the SIP
to allow for electronic submittal of
emissions inventory data.
II. EPA’s Evaluation
Section 110(1) of the Federal Clean
Air Act (CAA) states that each revision
to an implementation plan submitted by
a state under this chapter shall be
adopted by such state after reasonable
notice and public hearing. In the
November 4, 2008, submittal for rule
IAC 567–21.1(3), Iowa provided
E:\FR\FM\16FER1.SGM
16FER1
Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 30 / Tuesday, February 16, 2016 / Rules and Regulations
documentation that reasonable notice
and a public hearing were provided. No
comments were received.
The EPA’s regulations require states
to revise the SIP to satisfy the
requirements of 40 CFR part 3 (CrossMedia Electronic Reporting) in order to
provide electronic documents to EPA in
lieu of a paper document. Iowa
submitted the CROMERR application to
EPA on January 13, 2010, and amended
the application on September 22, 2015.
The application requests revisions to the
state’s EPA-authorized air program to
allow electronic reporting of emissions
inventories under 40 CFR part 52. EPA
evaluated the application and
determined that it meets the applicable
requirements of the EPA air quality
regulations because it is consistent with
EPA’s requirements for electronic
reporting. The notice of EPA’s decision
to approve Iowa’s application was
published in the Federal Register on
December 9, 2015, (80 FR 76474). This
direct final action approves IAC 567–
21.1(3) Emissions Inventory in to the
Federally-approved SIP.

III. Final Action
EPA is approving a revision to the
Iowa SIP by approving IAC 567–21.1(3)
that allows electronic reporting of
emissions inventories. Iowa’s
CROMERR submission was approved by
the EPA on December 9, 2015.
We are publishing this direct final
rule without a prior proposed rule
because we view this as a
noncontroversial action and anticipate
no adverse comment. However, in the
‘‘Proposed Rules’’ section of this
Federal Register, we are publishing a
separate document that will serve as the
proposed rule to approve the SIP
revision if relevant adverse comments
are received on this direct final rule. We
will not institute a second comment
period on this action. Any parties
interested in commenting must do so at
this time. For further information about
commenting on this rule, see the
ADDRESSES section of this document. If
EPA receives adverse comment, we will
publish a timely withdrawal in the
Federal Register informing the public
that this direct final rule will not take
effect. We will address all public
comments in any subsequent final rule
based on the proposed rule.
Incorporation by Reference
In this rule, EPA is finalizing
regulatory text that includes
incorporation by reference. In
accordance with requirements of 1 CFR
51.5, EPA is finalizing the incorporation
by reference of Iowa’s Chapter 21 rule
567–21.1 ‘‘Compliance Schedule’’
VerDate Sep<11>2014

described in the direct final
amendments to 40 CFR part 52 set forth
below. EPA has made, and will continue
to make, these documents generally
available electronically through
www.regulations.gov and at the
appropriate EPA office (see the
ADDRESSES section of this preamble for
more information).
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.
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 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 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 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 April 18, 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).)

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT
The Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) is taking final action to
approve the Best Available Retrofit
Technology (BART) alternative measure
for the BP Cherry Point Refinery located
near Ferndale, Washington. The BART
alternative measure increases the oxides
of nitrogen (NOX) emission limit from
the R–1 HC Reactor Heater (R–1 Heater),
a BART-eligible source currently subject
to BART emission limits on NOX. To
offset the increase in NOX emissions
from this emission unit, the NOX
emission limits on the 1st Stage
Hydrocracker Fractionator Reboiler (R–
1 Reboiler), also a BART-eligible source
subject to BART emission limits on
NOX, will be reduced. The net effect of
these changes is a decrease of 10.4 tons
per year (tpy) of allowable NOX
emissions from sources subject to BART
at the BP Cherry Point Refinery.
DATES: This final rule is effective March
17, 2016.
ADDRESSES: The EPA has established a

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Throughout this document ``we,'' ``us,'' or
``our'' refer to EPA.
I. Background
On November 4, 2008, Iowa submitted several revisions to EPA for
approval into the SIP. On December 30, 2009, EPA took direct final
action to approve the revisions to the SIP. (74 FR 68692). However, EPA
did not act on several state administrative regulations that provided
for electronic submittal of emissions inventory information,
construction permit applications, and Title V operating permit
applications, as Iowa had not obtained approval of its electronic
document receiving system as required by the Cross-Media Electronic
Reporting Rule (CROMERR) found at 40 CFR part 3 (70 FR 59848).
Therefore, EPA did not take action on the electronic emissions
inventory submittal provisions of Iowa Administrative Code (IAC) 567-
21.1(3).
On December 9, 2015, EPA approved Iowa's CROMERR application for
electronic reporting of emissions information through its State and
Local Emissions Inventory System (SLEIS). (80 FR 76474). Accordingly,
EPA is approving IAC 567-21-1(3) in to the SIP to allow for electronic
submittal of emissions inventory data.
II. EPA's Evaluation
Section 110(1) of the Federal Clean Air Act (CAA) states that each
revision to an implementation plan submitted by a state under this
chapter shall be adopted by such state after reasonable notice and
public hearing. In the November 4, 2008, submittal for rule IAC 567-
21.1(3), Iowa provided
[[Page 7709]]
documentation that reasonable notice and a public hearing were
provided. No comments were received.
The EPA's regulations require states to revise the SIP to satisfy
the requirements of 40 CFR part 3 (Cross-Media Electronic Reporting) in
order to provide electronic documents to EPA in lieu of a paper
document. Iowa submitted the CROMERR application to EPA on January 13,
2010, and amended the application on September 22, 2015. The
application requests revisions to the state's EPA-authorized air
program to allow electronic reporting of emissions inventories under 40
CFR part 52. EPA evaluated the application and determined that it meets
the applicable requirements of the EPA air quality regulations because
it is consistent with EPA's requirements for electronic reporting. The
notice of EPA's decision to approve Iowa's application was published in
the Federal Register on December 9, 2015, (80 FR 76474). This direct
final action approves IAC 567-21.1(3) Emissions Inventory in to the
Federally-approved SIP.
III. Final Action
EPA is approving a revision to the Iowa SIP by approving IAC 567-
21.1(3) that allows electronic reporting of emissions inventories.
Iowa's CROMERR submission was approved by the EPA on December 9, 2015.
We are publishing this direct final rule without a prior proposed
rule because we view this as a noncontroversial action and anticipate
no adverse comment. However, in the ``Proposed Rules'' section of this
Federal Register, we are publishing a separate document that will serve
as the proposed rule to approve the SIP revision if relevant adverse
comments are received on this direct final rule. We will not institute
a second comment period on this action. Any parties interested in
commenting must do so at this time. For further information about
commenting on this rule, see the ADDRESSES section of this document. If
EPA receives adverse comment, we will publish a timely withdrawal in
the Federal Register informing the public that this direct final rule
will not take effect. We will address all public comments in any
subsequent final rule based on the proposed rule.
Incorporation by Reference
In this rule, EPA is finalizing regulatory text that includes
incorporation by reference. In accordance with requirements of 1 CFR
51.5, EPA is finalizing the incorporation by reference of Iowa's
Chapter 21 rule 567-21.1 ``Compliance Schedule'' described in the
direct final amendments to 40 CFR part 52 set forth below. EPA has
made, and will continue to make, these documents generally available
electronically through www.regulations.gov and at the appropriate EPA
office (see the ADDRESSES section of this preamble for more
information).
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. 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 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 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
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 April 18, 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).)
