Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 221 / Friday, November 17, 2017 / Notices
Francisco, CA 94105–3901; (415) 947–
4151 or kelly.johnj@epa.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Throughout this document, whenever
‘‘we,’’ ‘‘us,’’ or ‘‘our’’ is used, we mean
the EPA.
Today’s notice is simply an
announcement of a finding that we have
already made. The EPA sent a letter to
CARB on October 19, 2017 stating that
the motor vehicle emissions budgets in
the submitted 2016 San Diego Ozone
Plan for the RFP milestone year 2017 are
adequate for transportation conformity
purposes.1 We announced availability of
the plan and related budgets on the
EPA’s transportation conformity Web
site on July 20, 2017, requesting
comments by August 21, 2017. We
received no comments in response to
the adequacy review posting. The
finding is available at the EPA’s
conformity Web site: https://
www.epa.gov/state-and-localtransportation/state-implementationplans-sip-submissions-epa-has-foundadequate-or. The adequate motor
vehicle emissions budgets are provided
in the following table:
ADEQUATE MOTOR VEHICLE
EMISSIONS BUDGETS
information in these resources in
making our adequacy determination.3
Please note that an adequacy review is
separate from the EPA’s completeness
review and should not be used to
prejudge the EPA’s ultimate action on
the SIP. Even if we find a budget
adequate, the SIP could later be
disapproved.
Pursuant to 40 CFR 93.104(e), within
2 years of the effective date of this
notice, SANDAG and the U.S.
Department of Transportation will need
to demonstrate conformity to the new
budgets if the demonstration has not
already been made.4 For demonstrating
conformity to the budgets in this plan,
the on-road motor vehicle emissions
from implementation of the
transportation plan or program should
be projected consistently with the
budgets in this plan, i.e., by taking the
county’s emissions results derived from
CARB’s EMFAC model (short for
EMission FACtor) and then rounding
the emissions up to the nearest ton.
Authority: 42 U.S.C. 7401 et seq.
Dated: October 25, 2017.

Acting Regional Administrator, Region IX.

Transportation conformity is required
by Clean Air Act section 176(c). The
EPA’s conformity rule requires that
transportation plans, transportation
improvement programs, and
transportation projects conform to a
state’s air quality SIP and establishes the
criteria and procedures for determining
whether or not they conform.
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.
The criteria we use to determine
whether a SIP’s motor vehicle emission
budgets are adequate for conformity
purposes are outlined in 40 CFR
93.118(e)(4), promulgated on August 15,
1997.2 We have further described our
process for determining the adequacy of
submitted SIP budgets in our final rule
dated July 1, 2004, and we used the
1 See
letter from Matthew J. Lakin, Acting
Director, Air Division, EPA Region IX, to Richard
Corey, Executive Officer, CARB, dated October 19,
2017.
