Jkt 238001
title 40 of the CFR. CROMERR
establishes electronic reporting as an
acceptable regulatory alternative to
paper reporting and establishes
requirements to assure that electronic
documents are as legally dependable as
their paper counterparts. Subpart D of
CROMERR requires that state, tribal or
local government agencies that receive,
or wish to begin receiving, electronic
reports under their EPA-authorized
programs must apply to EPA for a
revision or modification of those
programs and obtain EPA approval.
Subpart D provides standards for such
approvals based on consideration of the
electronic document receiving systems
that the state, tribe, or local government
will use to implement the electronic
reporting. Additionally, § 3.1000(b)
through (e) of 40 CFR part 3, subpart D
provides special procedures for program
revisions and modifications to allow
electronic reporting, to be used at the
option of the state, tribe or local
government in place of procedures
available under existing programspecific authorization regulations. An
application submitted under the subpart
D procedures must show that the state,
tribe or local government has sufficient
legal authority to implement the
electronic reporting components of the
programs covered by the application
and will use electronic document
receiving systems that meet the
applicable subpart D requirements.
On September 8, 2015, the Hawaii
Department of Health (HI DOH)
submitted an application titled
‘‘Electronic Permitting Portal’’ for
revisions/modifications to its EPAapproved programs under title 40 CFR
to allow new electronic reporting. EPA
reviewed HI DOH’s request to revise/
modify its EPA-authorized programs
and, based on this review, EPA
determined that the application met the
standards for approval of authorized
program revisions/modifications set out
in 40 CFR part 3, subpart D. In
accordance with 40 CFR 3.1000(d), this
notice of EPA’s decision to approve
Hawaii’s request to revise/modify its
following EPA-authorized programs to
allow electronic reporting under 40 CFR
parts 51–52, 61–63, 65, 70, 122, 144,

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
The Draft
Inventory of U.S. Greenhouse Gas
Emissions and Sinks: 1990–2014 is
being made available for a thirty-day
public review and comment period.
Annual U.S. emissions for the period
from 1990 through 2014 are summarized
and presented by source category and
sector. The inventory contains estimates
of carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4),
nitrous oxide (N2O), hydrofluorocarbons
(HFC), perfluorocarbons (PFC), sulfur
hexafluoride (SF6), and nitrogen
trifluoride (NF3) emissions. The
inventory also includes estimates of
carbon fluxes in U.S. agricultural and
forest lands. The technical approach
used in this report to estimate emissions
and sinks for greenhouse gases is
consistent with the methodologies
recommended by the Intergovernmental
Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), and
reported in a format consistent with the
United Nations Framework Convention
on Climate Change (UNFCCC) reporting
guidelines. The Inventory of U.S.
Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Sinks:
1990–2014 is the latest in a series of
annual U.S. submissions to the
Secretariat of the UNFCCC. The EPA
requests recommendations for
improving the overall quality of the
inventory report to be finalized in April
2016, as well as subsequent inventory
reports.
