Download as PDF 89418 Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 238 / Monday, December 12, 2016 / Proposed Rules srobinson on DSK5SPTVN1PROD with PROPOSALS projects conform to state air quality implementation plans and establishes the criteria and procedures for determining whether or not they do so. Conformity to a SIP means that transportation activities will not produce new air quality violations, worsen existing violations, or delay timely attainment of the NAAQS or the timely achievement of interim milestones. However, if the EPA determines that a SIP demonstrates that motor vehicle emissions are an insignificant contributor to the air quality problem, states are not required to establish motor vehicle emissions budgets or perform a regional emissions analysis for transportation conformity purposes.84 In section 6.1.2 of the Plan, the GBUAPCD provides its argument for why motor vehicle emissions are insignificant contributors to the PM10 problem in the Owens Valley PM10 NA. First, the District noted that motor vehicle tailpipe emissions and reentrained roadway dust contribute just 1.4 percent of the 2016 PM10 emissions. The District also observed that the State estimates the annual population growth (about 0.7 percent) and increase in vehicle miles traveled (about 1.2 percent annually) and argued that it is unlikely that ‘‘these emissions would grow to such an extent as to cause a NAAQS violation in the future.’’ Finally, the District pointed out the absence of measures in the SIP that control motor vehicle emissions. In light of these factors, the EPA concurs with the District’s conclusion that motor vehicle emissions are insignificant contributors to the PM10 problem in the Owens Valley. Accordingly, the GBUAPCD is not required to establish motor vehicle budgets in this plan or to perform regional emissions analyses for transportation conformity. III. Summary of the EPA’s Proposed Action The EPA is proposing to approve the Serious area 2016 PM10 Plan submitted by the State of California for the Owens Valley PM10 nonattainment area. Specifically, the EPA is proposing to approve the 2016 PM10 Plan with respect to the CAA requirements for public notice and involvement under section 110(a)(1); emissions inventories under section 172(c)(3); the control measures in Rule 433 under section 110(k)(3), as meeting the requirements of sections 110(a) and 189(b)(1)(B); RFP and quantitative milestones under section 189(c); the contingency measure in Rule 433 under section 172(c)(9); and 84 40 CFR 93.109(f).

The EPA is also proposing to approve the State’s request for an extension of the attainment date to June 6, 2017 pursuant to CAA sections 188 and 179. 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 proposed action merely proposes to approve State law as meeting federal requirements and does not impose additional requirements beyond those imposed by State law. For that reason, this proposed 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); • 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 the EPA with the discretionary authority to address disproportionate human health or environmental effects with practical, appropriate, and legally permissible methods under Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).

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). We intend to offer to consult with local tribes during the comment period.

ACTION: Proposed rule. AGENCY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to update portions of the Outer Continental Shelf (‘‘OCS’’) Air Regulations. Requirements applying to OCS sources located within 25 miles of States’ seaward boundaries must be updated periodically to remain consistent with the requirements of the corresponding onshore area (‘‘COA’’), as mandated by section 328(a)(1) of the Clean Air Act, as amended in 1990 (‘‘the Act’’). The portions of the OCS air regulations that are being updated pertain to the requirements for OCS sources for which the Santa Barbara County Air Pollution Control District (‘‘Santa Barbara County APCD’’) and Ventura County Air Pollution Control District (‘‘Ventura County APCD’’) are the designated COAs. The intended effect of approving the OCS requirements for the Santa Barbara County APCD and Ventura County APCD is to regulate emissions from OCS sources in accordance with the requirements onshore.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Table of Contents I. Background Information A. Why is EPA taking this action? II. EPA’s Evaluation A. What criteria were used to evaluate rules submitted to update 40 CFR part 55? B. What requirements were submitted to update 40 CFR part 55? III. Incorporation by Reference IV. Administrative Requirements I. Background Information A. Why is EPA taking this action? On September 4, 1992, EPA promulgated 40 CFR part 55,1 which established requirements to control air pollution from OCS sources in order to attain and maintain federal and state ambient air quality standards and to comply with the provisions of part C of title I of the Act. Part 55 applies to all OCS sources offshore of the States except those located in the Gulf of Mexico west of 87.5 degrees longitude. Section 328 of the Act requires that for such sources located within 25 miles of a State’s seaward boundary, the requirements shall be the same as would be applicable if the sources were located in the COA. Because the OCS requirements are based on onshore requirements, and onshore requirements may change, section 328(a)(1) requires that EPA update the OCS requirements as necessary to maintain consistency with onshore requirements. Pursuant to section 55.12 of the OCS rule, consistency reviews will occur (1) at least annually; (2) upon receipt of a Notice of Intent under section 55.4; or (3) when a state or local agency submits a rule to EPA to be considered for incorporation by reference in part 55. This proposed action is being taken in response to the submittal of requirements by the Ventura County APCD. Public comments received in writing within 30 days of publication of this document will be considered by EPA before publishing a final rule. Section 328(a) of the Act requires that EPA establish requirements to control air pollution from OCS sources located within 25 miles of States’ seaward boundaries that are the same as onshore requirements. To comply with this background and information on the OCS regulations. 2 Each COA which has been delegated the authority to implement and enforce part 55 will use its administrative and procedural rules as onshore. PO 00000 Frm 00023 Fmt 4702 Sfmt 4702 89419 statutory mandate, EPA must incorporate applicable onshore rules into part 55 as they exist onshore. This limits EPA’s flexibility in deciding which requirements will be incorporated into part 55 and prevents EPA from making substantive changes to the requirements it incorporates. As a result, EPA may be incorporating rules into part 55 that do not conform to all of EPA’s state implementation plan (SIP) guidance or certain requirements of the Act. Consistency updates may result in the inclusion of state or local rules or regulations into part 55, even though the same rules may ultimately be disapproved for inclusion as part of the SIP. Inclusion in the OCS rule does not imply that a rule meets the requirements of the Act for SIP approval, nor does it imply that the rule will be approved by EPA for inclusion in the SIP. II. EPA’s Evaluation A. What criteria were used to evaluate rules submitted to update 40 CFR part 55? In updating 40 CFR part 55, EPA reviewed the rules submitted for inclusion in part 55 to ensure that they are rationally related to the attainment or maintenance of federal or state ambient air quality standards or part C of title I of the Act, that they are not designed expressly to prevent exploration and development of the OCS and that they are applicable to OCS sources. 40 CFR 55.1. EPA has also evaluated the rules to ensure they are not arbitrary or capricious. 40 CFR 55.12(e). EPA has excluded administrative and procedural rules 2 that regulate toxics, which are not related to the attainment and maintenance of federal and state ambient air quality standards. B. What requirements were submitted to update 40 CFR part 55? 1. After review of the requirements submitted by the Santa Barbara County APCD against the criteria set forth above and in 40 CFR part 55, EPA is proposing to make the following Santa Barbara County APCD requirements applicable to OCS sources. Earlier versions of the District rules with a revised date are currently implemented on the OCS. The District rules with an adopted date are newly implemented on the OCS. The District rule with a repealed date is no longer implemented on the OCS. However, in those instances where EPA has not delegated authority to implement and enforce part 55, EPA will use its own administrative and procedural requirements to implement the substantive requirements. 40 CFR 55.14(c)(4).

Incorporation by Reference In this rule, the EPA is proposing to include in a final EPA rule regulatory text that includes incorporation by reference. In accordance with requirements of 1 CFR 51.5, the EPA is proposing to incorporate by reference the Santa Barbara County APCD and Ventura County APCD rules described in Tables 1 and 2, respectively, of this preamble. The EPA has made, and will continue to make, these materials available through www.regulations.gov and at the EPA Region IX Office (please contact the person identified in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section of this preamble for more information). IV. Administration Requirements Under the Clean Air Act, the Administrator is required to establish requirements to control air pollution from OCS sources located within 25 VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:02 Dec 09, 2016 Jkt 241001 miles of States’ seaward boundaries that are the same as onshore air control requirements. To comply with this statutory mandate, EPA must incorporate applicable onshore rules into part 55 as they exist onshore. 42 U.S.C. 7627(a)(1); 40 CFR 55.12. Thus, in promulgating OCS consistency updates, EPA’s role is to maintain consistency between OCS regulations and the regulations of onshore areas, provided that they meet the criteria of the Clean Air Act. Accordingly, this action simply updates the existing OCS requirements to make them consistent with requirements onshore, without the exercise of any policy discretion by EPA. For that reason, this action: • Is not a ‘‘significant regulatory action’’ subject to review by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) under Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993); PO 00000 Frm 00024 Fmt 4702 Sfmt 4702 06/12/12 • 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 E:\FR\FM\12DEP1.SGM 12DEP1 Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 238 / Monday, December 12, 2016 / Proposed Rules srobinson on DSK5SPTVN1PROD with PROPOSALS 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 rule does not have tribal implications as specified by Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000), because it does not have a substantial direct effect on one or more Indian tribes, on the relationship between the Federal Government and Indian tribes, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities between the Federal Government and Indian tribes, nor does it impose substantial direct compliance costs on tribal governments, nor preempt tribal law. Under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act, 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq., an agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. OMB has approved the information collection requirements contained in 40 CFR part 55 and, by extension, this update to the rules, and has assigned OMB control number 2060–0249. Notice of OMB’s approval of EPA Information Collection Request (‘‘ICR’’) No. 1601.07 was published in the Federal Register on February 17, 2009 (74 FR 7432). The approval expires January 31, 2012. As EPA previously indicated (70 FR 65897– 65898 (November 1, 2005)), the annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for collection of information under 40 CFR part 55 is estimated to average 549 hours per response, using the definition of burden provided in 44 U.S.C. 3502(2).

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 November 25, 2013. 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)).

Outer Continental Shelf Air Regulations; Consistency Update for
California

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to
update portions of the Outer Continental Shelf (``OCS'') Air
Regulations. Requirements applying to OCS sources located within 25
miles of States' seaward boundaries must be updated periodically to
remain consistent with the requirements of the corresponding onshore
area (``COA''), as mandated by section 328(a)(1) of the Clean Air Act,
as amended in 1990 (``the Act''). The portions of the OCS air
regulations that are being updated pertain to the requirements for OCS
sources for which the Santa Barbara County Air Pollution Control
District (``Santa Barbara County APCD'') and Ventura County Air
Pollution Control District (``Ventura County APCD'') are the designated
COAs. The intended effect of approving the OCS requirements for the
Santa Barbara County APCD and Ventura County APCD is to regulate
emissions from OCS sources in accordance with the requirements onshore.
The changes to

[[Page 89419]]

the existing requirements discussed in this document are proposed to be
incorporated by reference into the Code of Federal Regulations and
listed in the appendix to the OCS air regulations.

I. Background Information

A. Why is EPA taking this action?

On September 4, 1992, EPA promulgated 40 CFR part 55,\1\ which
established requirements to control air pollution from OCS sources in
order to attain and maintain federal and state ambient air quality
standards and to comply with the provisions of part C of title I of the
Act. Part 55 applies to all OCS sources offshore of the States except
those located in the Gulf of Mexico west of 87.5 degrees longitude.
Section 328 of the Act requires that for such sources located within 25
miles of a State's seaward boundary, the requirements shall be the same
as would be applicable if the sources were located in the COA. Because
the OCS requirements are based on onshore requirements, and onshore
requirements may change, section 328(a)(1) requires that EPA update the
OCS requirements as necessary to maintain consistency with onshore
requirements.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

\1\ The reader may refer to the Notice of Proposed Rulemaking,
December 5, 1991 (56 FR 63774), and the preamble to the final rule
promulgated September 4, 1992 (57 FR 40792) for further background
and information on the OCS regulations.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Pursuant to section 55.12 of the OCS rule, consistency reviews will
occur (1) at least annually; (2) upon receipt of a Notice of Intent
under section 55.4; or (3) when a state or local agency submits a rule
to EPA to be considered for incorporation by reference in part 55. This
proposed action is being taken in response to the submittal of
requirements by the Ventura County APCD. Public comments received in
writing within 30 days of publication of this document will be
considered by EPA before publishing a final rule. Section 328(a) of the
Act requires that EPA establish requirements to control air pollution
from OCS sources located within 25 miles of States' seaward boundaries
that are the same as onshore requirements. To comply with this
statutory mandate, EPA must incorporate applicable onshore rules into
part 55 as they exist onshore. This limits EPA's flexibility in
deciding which requirements will be incorporated into part 55 and
prevents EPA from making substantive changes to the requirements it
incorporates. As a result, EPA may be incorporating rules into part 55
that do not conform to all of EPA's state implementation plan (SIP)
guidance or certain requirements of the Act. Consistency updates may
result in the inclusion of state or local rules or regulations into
part 55, even though the same rules may ultimately be disapproved for
inclusion as part of the SIP. Inclusion in the OCS rule does not imply
that a rule meets the requirements of the Act for SIP approval, nor
does it imply that the rule will be approved by EPA for inclusion in
the SIP.

II. EPA's Evaluation

A. What criteria were used to evaluate rules submitted to update 40 CFR
part 55?

In updating 40 CFR part 55, EPA reviewed the rules submitted for
inclusion in part 55 to ensure that they are rationally related to the
attainment or maintenance of federal or state ambient air quality
standards or part C of title I of the Act, that they are not designed
expressly to prevent exploration and development of the OCS and that
they are applicable to OCS sources. 40 CFR 55.1. EPA has also evaluated
the rules to ensure they are not arbitrary or capricious. 40 CFR
55.12(e). EPA has excluded administrative and procedural rules \2\ that
regulate toxics, which are not related to the attainment and
maintenance of federal and state ambient air quality standards.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

\2\ Each COA which has been delegated the authority to implement
and enforce part 55 will use its administrative and procedural rules
as onshore. However, in those instances where EPA has not delegated
authority to implement and enforce part 55, EPA will use its own
administrative and procedural requirements to implement the
substantive requirements. 40 CFR 55.14(c)(4).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

B. What requirements were submitted to update 40 CFR part 55?

1. After review of the requirements submitted by the Santa Barbara
County APCD against the criteria set forth above and in 40 CFR part 55,
EPA is proposing to make the following Santa Barbara County APCD
requirements applicable to OCS sources. Earlier versions of the
District rules with a revised date are currently implemented on the
OCS. The District rules with an adopted date are newly implemented on
the OCS. The District rule with a repealed date is no longer
implemented on the OCS.

2. After review of the requirements submitted by the Ventura County
APCD against the criteria set forth above and in 40 CFR part 55, EPA is
proposing to make the following Ventura County APCD requirements
applicable to OCS sources. Earlier versions of the District rules with
a revised date are currently implemented on the OCS. The District rules
with an adopted date are newly implemented on the OCS. The District
rule with a repealed date is no longer implemented on the OCS.

III. Incorporation by Reference

In this rule, the EPA is proposing to include in a final EPA rule
regulatory text that includes incorporation by reference. In accordance
with requirements of 1 CFR 51.5, the EPA is proposing to incorporate by
reference the Santa Barbara County APCD and Ventura County APCD rules
described in Tables 1 and 2, respectively, of this preamble. The EPA
has made, and will continue to make, these materials available through
www.regulations.gov and at the EPA Region IX Office (please contact the
person identified in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section of
this preamble for more information).

IV. Administration Requirements

Under the Clean Air Act, the Administrator is required to establish
requirements to control air pollution from OCS sources located within
25 miles of States' seaward boundaries that are the same as onshore air
control requirements. To comply with this statutory mandate, EPA must
incorporate applicable onshore rules into part 55 as they exist
onshore. 42 U.S.C. 7627(a)(1); 40 CFR 55.12. Thus, in promulgating OCS
consistency updates, EPA's role is to maintain consistency between OCS
regulations and the regulations of onshore areas, provided that they
meet the criteria of the Clean Air Act. Accordingly, this action simply
updates the existing OCS requirements to make them consistent with
requirements onshore, without the exercise of any policy discretion by
EPA. For that reason, this action:
Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' subject to
review by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) under Executive
Order 12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993);
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

[[Page 89421]]

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 rule does not have tribal implications as
specified by Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000),
because it does not have a substantial direct effect on one or more
Indian tribes, on the relationship between the Federal Government and
Indian tribes, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities
between the Federal Government and Indian tribes, nor does it impose
substantial direct compliance costs on tribal governments, nor preempt
tribal law.
Under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act, 44 U.S.C. 3501
et seq., an agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not
required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays
a currently valid OMB control number. OMB has approved the information
collection requirements contained in 40 CFR part 55 and, by extension,
this update to the rules, and has assigned OMB control number 2060-
0249. Notice of OMB's approval of EPA Information Collection Request
(``ICR'') No. 1601.07 was published in the Federal Register on February
17, 2009 (74 FR 7432). The approval expires January 31, 2012. As EPA
previously indicated (70 FR 65897-65898 (November 1, 2005)), the annual
public reporting and recordkeeping burden for collection of information
under 40 CFR part 55 is estimated to average 549 hours per response,
using the definition of burden provided in 44 U.S.C. 3502(2).
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 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 November 25, 2013. 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)).
