ACTION: Notice of adequacy. AGENCY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA or ‘‘Agency’’) is notifying the public that the Agency has found that the motor vehicle emissions budgets (MVEBs or ‘‘budgets’’) for the years 2017 and 2019 in the 2016 South Coast Serious Area Plan for the 2006 24hour fine particulate matter (PM2.5) National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) (‘‘2016 PM2.5 Plan’’ or ‘‘Plan’’) are adequate for transportation conformity purposes. The California Air Resources Board (CARB) submitted the 2016 PM2.5 Plan to the EPA on April 27, 2017, as a revision to the California State Implementation Plan (SIP). Upon the effective date of this notice of adequacy, the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) and the U.S. Department of Transportation SUMMARY: must use the adequate budgets in future transportation conformity analyses. DATES: This finding is effective January 22, 2018. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Wienke Tax, EPA, Region IX, Air Division AIR–2, 75 Hawthorne Street, San Francisco, CA 94105–3901; (415) 947–4192 or tax.wienke@epa.gov. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Throughout this document, whenever ‘‘we,’’ ‘‘us,’’ or ‘‘our’’ is used, we mean EPA. Today’s notice is simply an announcement of a finding that we have already made. EPA Region IX sent a letter to CARB on December 19, 2017, stating that the MVEBs in the 2016 PM2.5 Plan for the reasonable further progress (RFP) milestone year of 2017 and attainment year of 2019 are adequate. The finding is available at the EPA’s conformity website: https:// www.epa.gov/state-and-localtransportation/adequacy-review-stateimplementation-plan-sip-submissionsconformity. We announced the availability of the Plan and related budgets on the EPA’s conformity website on October 18, 2017. We received no comments in response to this announcement. The adequate budgets are provided in the following table: ADEQUATE MOTOR VEHICLE EMISSIONS BUDGETS IN SOUTH COAST 2006 PM2.5 SERIOUS AREA PLAN [Annual average tons per day] Volatile organic compounds Budget Year daltland on DSKBBV9HB2PROD with NOTICES 2017 ............................................................................................................................................. 2019 ............................................................................................................................................. Transportation conformity is required by CAA section 176(c). The EPA’s Transportation Conformity Rule at 40 CFR part 93, subpart A requires that transportation plans, transportation improvement programs, and projects conform to SIPs and establishes the criteria and procedures for determining whether or not they do. 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 (62 FR 43780, 43781–43783). We further described our process for determining the adequacy of submitted VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:30 Jan 04, 2018 Jkt 244001 SIP budgets in our July 1, 2004 final rule (69 FR 40004, 40038), and we used the information in these resources in making our adequacy determination. 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. Consistent with the requirements set forth in the Fine Particulate Matter National Ambient Air Quality Standards: State Implementation Plan Requirements, Final Rule (81 FR 58010, August 24, 2016) (‘‘PM2.5 SIP Requirements Rule’’), the 2016 PM2.5 Plan contains RFP budgets for 2020, which is the year following the attainment year.

The Transportation Conformity Rule requires that control strategy SIPs, including the RFP plans and attainment plans required for Serious PM2.5 nonattainment areas,1 contain MVEBs for direct PM2.5 and PM2.5 precursors subject to transportation conformity analyses for each milestone year addressed in the control strategy.2 1 See 40 CFR 93.101 (defining ‘‘control strategy implementation plan revision’’). 2 See 40 CFR 93.101 (defining ‘‘motor vehicle emissions budget’’), 93.102(b)(2)(iv) and (v) (establishing applicability of part 93 requirements to PM2.5 precursor pollutants) and 93.118(a) (requiring that each transportation plan, TIP, or project not from a conforming transportation plan and TIP be consistent with the motor vehicle emissions budget(s) in the applicable implementation plan (or implementation plan submission)).
