FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. Gerri Garwood, Measurement Policy Group (MPG), Sector Policies and Programs Division (D243–05), Office of Air Quality Planning and Standards, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Research Triangle Park, North Carolina 27711, telephone number: (919) 541– 2406; fax number: (919) 541–1039; and email address: garwood.gerri@epa.gov. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: As described above, the EPA finalized these actions to fulfill its obligations under a settlement agreement, which resolves a petition for judicial review on actions the EPA took on April 20, 2015. On April 20, 2015, the EPA issued new and revised emissions factors for flares and other refinery process units and issued its final determination that revisions to existing emissions factors for tanks and wastewater treatment systems were not necessary in order to fulfill its obligations under a consent decree. Plaintiffs alleged that the EPA failed to perform nondiscretionary duties pursuant to Clean Air Act (CAA) section 130 to review, and, if necessary, revise the emissions factors for volatile organic compounds (VOC) for flares, liquid storage tanks (‘‘tanks’’), and wastewater collection, treatment and storage systems (‘‘wastewater treatment systems’’) at least once every 3 years. See Air Alliance Houston, et al. v. EPA, Case No. 15–1210 (D.C. Cir.) and Air Alliance Houston, et al. v. McCarthy, No. 1:13–cv–00621–KBJ (D.D.C.). The settlement agreement outlined 20 specific Source Classification Codes (SCCs) that Plaintiffs argued should be included in Tables 13.5–1 and 13.5–2 of AP–42, Compilation of Air Pollutant Emission Factors. AP–42 is the primary compilation of EPA’s emissions factor information. Additionally, Plaintiffs sought minor clarifications to the text in Section 13.5 of AP–42, as well as an update to the VOC emissions factor due to errors in the original calculation. Per the requirements of the settlement agreement, this final action was issued by December 16, 2016. To support this action, we developed a memorandum to document our determinations in regards to the 20 SCCs specified in the settlement agreement. We also revised section 13.5 of AP–42, the supporting background documentation, and the previously issued report, Review of Emissions Test Reports for Emissions Factors Development for Flares and Certain Refinery Operations. The SCC VerDate Sep<11>2014 19:02 Jan 19, 2017 Jkt 241001 determination memorandum and the revised report, along with a link to the updated section in AP–42 and supporting background documentation, were posted on the Web site listed in the ADDRESSES section of this document on December 14, 2016. These actions constitute final agency action of national applicability for purposes of section 307(b)(1) of the CAA. Pursuant to CAA section 307(b)(1), judicial review of these final agency actions may be sought only in the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. Petitions for review must be filed by March 24, 2017. Judicial review of these final agency actions may not be obtained in subsequent proceedings, pursuant to CAA section 307(b)(2). These actions are not a rulemaking and are not subject to the various statutory and other provisions applicable to a rulemaking. Dated: January 13, 2017.

Abstract: Owners and operators of affected facilities are required to comply with reporting and record keeping requirements for the General Provisions (40 CFR part 60, subpart A), as well as for the specific requirements at 40 CFR part 60, subpart O. This includes submitting initial notifications, performance tests and periodic reports and results, and maintaining records of the occurrence and duration of any startup, shutdown, or malfunction in the operation of an affected facility, or any period during which the monitoring system is inoperative. These reports are used by EPA to determine compliance with these standards. Form Numbers: None. Respondents/affected entities: Sewage sludge treatment plants. Respondent’s obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 60 Subpart O). Estimated number of respondents: 86 (total). Frequency of response: Initially, occasionally and semiannually. Total estimated burden: 9,690 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b). Total estimated cost: $4,050,000 (per year), which includes $3,050,000 for both annualized capital/startup and operation & maintenance costs. Changes in the Estimates: There is an adjustment decrease in the total estimated burden and O&M costs as currently identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved Burdens. This decrease is not due to any program changes. The change in the burden and cost estimates occurred because the number of respondents has decreased as compared to the most-recently approved ICR.
