Explanation

I. Background
On December 14, 2004, and March 1,
2016, the State of North Carolina,
through NCDEQ, submitted revisions to
the North Carolina SIP. The March 1,
2016, submission which adds a new
rule—15A NCAC 02Q .0809 Concrete
Batch Plants—and a portion of the
December 14, 2004, submission which
adds two new rules—15A NCAC 02Q
.0901, Purpose and Scope and .0902
Portable Crushers. In a proposed
rulemaking published on July 10, 2017
(82 FR 31739), EPA proposed to approve
these SIP revisions. The details of North
Carolina’s SIP revision and the rationale
for EPA’s action are explained in the
proposed rulemaking. Comments on the
proposed rulemaking were due on or
before August 9, 2017. EPA did not
receive any comments on the proposed
action.
II. 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 North Carolina Rules
15A NCAC 02Q .0809 entitled
‘‘Concrete Batch Plants’’ effective April
1, 2004, a new exclusionary rule for
concrete batch that excludes from Title
V permitting requirements such

facilities that operate below a specified
annual production rate; 15A NCAC 02Q
.0901 entitled ‘‘Purpose and Scope’’
effective January 1, 2005, a new
exclusionary rule which provides for
exclusions from construction and
operating permits for certain types of
sources and activities; and 15A NCAC
02Q .0902 entitled ‘‘Portable Crushers’’
effective January 1, 2005, an
exclusionary rule which provides for
exclusions from construction and
operating permits for portable crusher
operations.
Therefore, these materials have been
approved by EPA for inclusion in the
State implementation plan, have been
incorporated by reference by EPA into
that plan, are fully federally-enforceable
under sections 110 and 113 of the CAA
as of the effective date of the final
rulemaking of EPA’s approval, and will
be incorporated by reference by the
Director of the Federal Register in the
next update to the SIP compilation.1
EPA has made, and will continue to
make, these materials generally
available through www.regulations.gov
and/or at the EPA Region 4 Office
(please contact the person identified in
the ‘‘For Further Information Contact’’
section of this preamble for more
information).

III. Final Action
EPA is approving North Carolina’s
March 1, 2016, submission and a
portion of the December 14, 2004,
submission. The changes pertain to the
addition of two new rules under a new
section ‘‘Permit Exemptions’’ and a new
rule to the ‘‘Exclusionary Rules’’ of the
North Carolina SIP. These rule
adoptions do not contravene federal
permitting requirements or existing EPA
policy, nor will they impact the NAAQS
or interfere with any other applicable
requirement of the Act. See 42 U.S.C.
7410(l).
IV. 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.
See 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, these actions
merely approve state law as meeting
Federal requirements and does not
impose additional requirements beyond
those imposed by state law. For that
reason, these actions:
1 62
• Are 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);
• do not impose an information
collection burden under the provisions
of the Paperwork Reduction Act
(44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.);
• are 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.);
• do 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);
• do not have Federalism
implications as specified in Executive
Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10,
1999);
• are not an economically significant
regulatory action based on health or
safety risks subject to Executive Order
13045 (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997);
• are not a significant regulatory
action subject to Executive Order 13211
(66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001);
• are 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
• do 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 as specified by Executive
Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9,
2000), nor will it impose substantial
direct costs on tribal governments or
preempt tribal law.
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 November 28, 2017. 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).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
On May 8, 2017, the Maryland
Department of the Environment (MDE)
submitted on behalf of the State of
Maryland a formal revision, requesting
EPA’s approval for the SIP of its NNSR
Certification for the 2008 Ozone
Standard (Revision 17–01). The SIP
revision is in response to EPA’s final
2008 8-hour ozone NAAQS Findings of
Failure to Submit for NNSR
requirements. See 82 FR 9158 (February
3, 2017). Specifically, Maryland is
certifying that its existing NNSR
program, covering the Baltimore
Nonattainment Area (which includes
Anne Arundel, Baltimore, Carroll,
Harford, and Howard Counties and the
city of Baltimore), the PhiladelphiaWilmington-Atlantic City
Nonattainment Area (which includes
Cecil County in Maryland), and the
Washington, DC Nonattainment Area
(which includes Calvert, Charles,
Frederick, Montgomery, and Prince
Georges Counties in Maryland) for the
2008 8-hour ozone NAAQS, is at least
as stringent as the requirements at 40

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is approving several
changes to the North Carolina State Implementation Plan (SIP) submitted
by the State of North Carolina, through the North Carolina Department
of Environmental Quality (NCDEQ), on December 14, 2004, and March 1,
2016. The March 1, 2016, submission adds a new rule to the
``Exclusionary Rules'' of the North Carolina SIP, and the portion of
the December 14, 2004, submission EPA is approving adds two new rules
under a new section called ``Permit Exemptions.'' This action is being
taken pursuant to the Clean Air Act (CAA or Act).
DATES: This rule will be effective October 30, 2017.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
On December 14, 2004, and March 1, 2016, the State of North
Carolina, through NCDEQ, submitted revisions to the North Carolina SIP.
The March 1, 2016, submission which adds a new rule--15A NCAC 02Q .0809
Concrete Batch Plants--and a portion of the December 14, 2004,
submission which adds two new rules--15A NCAC 02Q .0901, Purpose and
Scope and .0902 Portable Crushers. In a proposed rulemaking published
on July 10, 2017 (82 FR 31739), EPA proposed to approve these SIP
revisions. The details of North Carolina's SIP revision and the
rationale for EPA's action are explained in the proposed rulemaking.
Comments on the proposed rulemaking were due on or before August 9,
2017. EPA did not receive any comments on the proposed action.
II. 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 North
Carolina Rules 15A NCAC 02Q .0809 entitled ``Concrete Batch Plants''
effective April 1, 2004, a new exclusionary rule for concrete batch
that excludes from Title V permitting requirements such
[[Page 45474]]
facilities that operate below a specified annual production rate; 15A
NCAC 02Q .0901 entitled ``Purpose and Scope'' effective January 1,
2005, a new exclusionary rule which provides for exclusions from
construction and operating permits for certain types of sources and
activities; and 15A NCAC 02Q .0902 entitled ``Portable Crushers''
effective January 1, 2005, an exclusionary rule which provides for
exclusions from construction and operating permits for portable crusher
operations.
Therefore, these materials have been approved by EPA for inclusion
in the State implementation plan, have been incorporated by reference
by EPA into that plan, are fully federally-enforceable under sections
110 and 113 of the CAA as of the effective date of the final rulemaking
of EPA's approval, and will be incorporated by reference by the
Director of the Federal Register in the next update to the SIP
compilation.\1\ EPA has made, and will continue to make, these
materials generally available through www.regulations.gov and/or at the
EPA Region 4 Office (please contact the person identified in the ``For
Further Information Contact'' section of this preamble for more
information).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ 62 FR 27968 (May 22, 1997).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
III. Final Action
EPA is approving North Carolina's March 1, 2016, submission and a
portion of the December 14, 2004, submission. The changes pertain to
the addition of two new rules under a new section ``Permit Exemptions''
and a new rule to the ``Exclusionary Rules'' of the North Carolina SIP.
These rule adoptions do not contravene federal permitting requirements
or existing EPA policy, nor will they impact the NAAQS or interfere
with any other applicable requirement of the Act. See 42 U.S.C.
7410(l).
IV. 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. See 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, these
actions merely approve state law as meeting Federal requirements and
does not impose additional requirements beyond those imposed by state
law. For that reason, these actions:
Are 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);
do not impose an information collection burden under the
provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.);
are 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.);
do 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);
do not have Federalism implications as specified in
Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999);
are not an economically significant regulatory action
based on health or safety risks subject to Executive Order 13045 (62 FR
19885, April 23, 1997);
are not a significant regulatory action subject to
Executive Order 13211 (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001);
are 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
do 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 as specified by Executive Order 13175 (65
FR 67249, November 9, 2000), nor will it impose substantial direct
costs on tribal governments or preempt tribal law.
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).
