ACTION: Notice. AGENCY: This notice announces EPA’s approval of the State of Iowa’s request to revise its National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants EPA-authorized program to allow electronic reporting. DATES: EPA’s approval is effective April 10, 2017.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On October 13, 2005, the final Cross-Media Electronic Reporting Rule (CROMERR) was published in the Federal Register (70 FR 59848) and codified as part 3 of 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 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 SUMMARY: PO 00000 Frm 00080 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 17257 40 CFR part 3, subpart D provides special procedures for program revisions to allow electronic reporting, to be used at the option of the state, tribe or local government in place of procedures available under existing program-specific 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 November 28, 2016, the Iowa Department of Natural Resources (IDNR) submitted an application titled Asbestos Notification System for revision to its EPA-approved program under title 40 CFR to allow new electronic reporting. EPA reviewed IDNR’s request to revise its EPA-authorized Part 63—National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants program and, based on this review, EPA determined that the application met the standards for approval of authorized program revision 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 Iowa’s request to revise its Part 63— National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants program to allow electronic reporting under 40 CFR parts 61, 63, and 65 is being published in the Federal Register. IDNR was notified of EPA’s determination to approve its application with respect to the authorized program listed above. Matthew Leopard, Director, Office of Information Management.
