I. Background
AGENCY:
SUMMARY:
DATES:
Each State has a SIP containing the
control measures and strategies to attain
and maintain the National Ambient Air
Quality Standards (NAAQS). The SIP is
extensive, containing such elements as
air pollution control regulations,
emission inventories, monitoring
networks, attainment demonstrations,
and enforcement mechanisms.
B. How EPA Enforces SIPs
Before formally adopting required
control measures and strategies, each
State must provide the public with an
opportunity to comment on them. The
PO 00000
Frm 00029
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
3965
States then submit these measures and
strategies to EPA as requested SIP
revisions on which EPA must formally
act.
When these control measures and
strategies are approved by EPA, after
notice and comment rulemaking, they
are incorporated into the Federallyapproved SIP and identified in title 40
of the Code of Federal Regulations, part
52 (Approval and Promulgation of
Implementation Plans) (40 CFR part 52).
The actual State regulations approved
by EPA are not reproduced in their
entirety in 40 CFR part 52, but are
‘‘incorporated by reference,’’ which
means that EPA has approved a given
State regulation with a specific effective
date. This format allows both EPA and
the public to know which measures are
contained in a given SIP and to help
determine whether the State is enforcing
the regulations.
C. How the State and EPA Update the
SIP
The SIP is periodically revised as
necessary to address the unique air
pollution problems in the State.
Therefore, EPA from time to time takes
action on State SIP submissions
containing new and/or revised
regulations and other materials; if
approved, they become part of the SIP.
On May 22, 1997 (62 FR 27968), EPA
revised the procedures for incorporating
by reference federally approved SIPs, as
a result of consultations between EPA
and the Office of the Federal Register
(OFR).
As a result, EPA began the process of
developing the following: (1) A revised
SIP document for each State that would
be incorporated by reference under the
provisions of title 1 CFR part 51; (2) a
revised mechanism for announcing EPA
approval of revisions to an applicable
SIP and updating both the IBR
document and the CFR; and (3) a
revised format of the ‘‘Identification of
plan’’ sections for each applicable
subpart to reflect these revised IBR
procedures. The description of the
revised SIP document, IBR procedures,
and ‘‘Identification of plan’’ format are
discussed in further detail in the May
22, 1997, Federal Register document.
D. How EPA Compiles the SIP
The Federally-approved regulations,
source-specific requirements, and
nonregulatory provisions (entirely or
portions of) submitted by each State
agency and approved by EPA have been
organized into a ‘‘SIP compilation.’’ The
SIP compilation contains the updated
regulations, source-specific
requirements, and nonregulatory
provisions approved by EPA through
E:\FR\FM\29JAR1.SGM
29JAR1
3966
Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 19 / Monday, January 29, 2018 / Rules and Regulations
previous rulemaking actions in the
Federal Register.
E. How EPA Organizes the SIP
Compilation
Each SIP compilation contains three
parts approved by EPA: Part one
contains regulations; part two contains
source-specific requirements; and part
three contains nonregulatory provisions.
Each State’s SIP compilation contains a
table of identifying information for each
of these three parts. In this action, EPA
is publishing the tables summarizing the
applicable SIP requirements for
Massachusetts. The effective dates in
the tables indicate the date of the most
recent revision of each regulation. The
EPA Region 1 Office has the primary
responsibility for updating the
compilation and ensuring its accuracy.
F. Where You Can Find a Copy of the
SIP Compilation
EPA’s Region 1 Office developed and
will maintain the compilation for
Massachusetts. A copy of the full text of
Massachusetts’ regulatory and sourcespecific compilations will also be
maintained at NARA.
G. The Format of the New Identification
of Plan Section
To better serve the public, EPA
revised the organization of the
‘‘Identification of plan’’ section and
included additional information to
clarify which provisions are the
enforceable elements of the SIP.
The revised Identification of plan
section contains five subsections: (a)
Purpose and scope; (b) Incorporation by
reference; (c) EPA-approved regulations;
(d) EPA-approved source-specific
requirements; and (e) EPA-approved
nonregulatory provisions such as
transportation control measures,
statutory provisions, control strategies,
and monitoring networks.
sradovich on DSK3GMQ082PROD with RULES
H. When a State Submission Becomes
Part of the SIP and Federally
Enforceable
All revisions to the applicable SIP
become federally enforceable as of the
effective date of the revisions to
paragraphs (c), (d), or (e) of the
applicable Identification of Plan section
found in each subpart of 40 CFR part 52.
I. The Historical Record of SIP Revision
Approvals
To facilitate enforcement of
previously-approved SIP provisions and
provide a smooth transition to the new
SIP compilation, EPA has retained the
original Identification of plan section,
previously appearing in the CFR as the
first or second section of part 52 for
VerDate Sep<11>2014
16:12 Jan 26, 2018
Jkt 244001
each State subpart. After an initial twoyear period, EPA will review its
experience with the new table format
and will decide whether or not to retain
the Identification of plan appendices for
some further period.
II. What is EPA doing in this action?
Today’s rule constitutes a record
keeping exercise to ensure that all
revisions to the State programs and
accompanying SIP that have already
occurred are accurately reflected in 40
CFR part 52. State SIP revisions are
controlled by EPA regulations at 40 CFR
part 51. When EPA receives a formal SIP
revision request, the Agency must
publish proposed rulemaking in the
Federal Register and provide for public
comment before approval.
EPA has determined that today’s rule
falls under the ‘‘good cause’’ exemption
in section 553(b)(3)(B) of the
Administrative Procedures Act (APA)
which, upon finding ‘‘good cause,’’
authorizes agencies to dispense with
public participation and section
553(d)(3) which allows an agency to
make a rule effective immediately,
thereby avoiding the 30-day delayed
effective date otherwise provided for in
the APA. Today’s rule simply codifies
provisions which are already in effect as
a matter of law in Federal and approved
State programs. Accordingly, we find
that public comment is ‘‘unnecessary’’
and ‘‘contrary to the public interest’’
under section 553 of the APA, since the
codification of the revised format for
denoting IBR of the State materials into
the SIP only reflects existing law and
since immediate notice in the CFR
benefits the public by removing
outdated citations from the CFR.
III. 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 the Massachusetts
Regulations described in amendments to
40 CFR part 52 set forth below. EPA has
made, and will continue to make, these
documents generally available
electronically through
www.regulations.gov and/or in hard
copy at the appropriate EPA office (see
the ADDRESSES section of this preamble
for more information).
IV. Statutory and Executive Order
Reviews
A. General Requirements
Under Executive Order 12866 (58 FR
51735, October 4, 1993) and 13563 (76
FR 3821, January 21, 2011), this action
PO 00000
Frm 00030
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
is not a ‘‘significant regulatory action’’
and is therefore not subject to review by
the Office of Management and Budget.
This rule is not subject to Executive
Order 13211, ‘‘Actions Concerning
Regulations That Significantly Affect
Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use’’ (66
FR 28355, May 22, 2001) because it is
not a significant regulatory action under
Executive Order 12866. Because the
agency has made a ‘‘good cause’’ finding
that this action is not subject to noticeand-comment requirements under the
Administrative Procedure Act or any
other statute as indicated in the
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section
above, it is not subject to the regulatory
flexibility provisions of the Regulatory
Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C 601 et seq.), or
to sections 202 and 205 of the Unfunded
Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (UMRA)
(Pub. L. 104–4). In addition, this action
does not significantly or uniquely affect
small governments or impose a
significant intergovernmental mandate,
as described in sections 203 and 204 of
UMRA. This rule also does not have a
substantial direct effect on one or more
Indian Tribes, on the relationship
between the Federal government and
Indian Tribes, or on the distribution of
power and responsibilities between the
Federal government and Indian Tribes,
as specified by Executive Order 13175
(65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000), nor
will it have substantial direct effects on
the States, on the relationship between
the national government and the States,
or on the distribution of power and
responsibilities among the various
levels of government, as specified in
Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255,
August 10, 1999). This rule also is not
subject to Executive Order 13045 (62 FR
19885, April 23, 1997), because it is not
economically significant. This rule does
not involve technical standards; thus
the requirements of section 12(d) of the
National Technology Transfer and
Advancement Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C.
272 note) do not apply. The rule also
does not involve special consideration
of environmental justice related issues
as required by Executive Order 12898
(59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994). In
issuing this rule, EPA has taken the
necessary steps to eliminate drafting
errors and ambiguity, minimize
potential litigation, and provide a clear
legal standard for affected conduct, as
required by section 3 of Executive Order
12988 (61 FR 4729, February 7, 1996).
EPA has complied with Executive Order
12630 (53 FR 8859, March 15, 1998) by
examining the takings implications of
the rule in accordance with the
‘‘Attorney General’s Supplemental
Guidelines for the Evaluation of Risk
E:\FR\FM\29JAR1.SGM
29JAR1
Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 19 / Monday, January 29, 2018 / Rules and Regulations
and Avoidance of Unanticipated
Takings’’ issued under the executive
order. This rule does not impose an
information collection burden under the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44
U.S.C. 3501 et seq.). EPA’s compliance
with these statutes and Executive
Orders for the underlying rules are
discussed in previous actions taken on
the State’s rules.
B. Submission to Congress and the
Comptroller General
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. Section 808 allows
the issuing agency to make a rule
effective sooner than otherwise
provided by the CRA if the agency
makes a good cause finding that notice
and public procedure is impracticable,
unnecessary or contrary to the public
interest. Today’s action simply codifies
provisions which are already in effect as
a matter of law in Federal and approved
State programs. 5 U.S.C. 808(2). As
stated previously, EPA has made such a
good cause finding, including the
reasons therefore, and established an
effective date of January 29, 2018. EPA
will submit a report containing this rule
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. This rule is not a ‘‘major rule’’
as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2).
C. Petitions for Judicial Review
EPA has also determined that the
provisions of section 307(b)(1) of the
Clean Air Act pertaining to petitions for
judicial review are not applicable to this
action. Prior EPA rulemaking actions for
each individual component of the
Massachusetts SIP compilation had
previously afforded interested parties
the opportunity to file a petition for
judicial review in the United States
Court of Appeals for the appropriate
circuit within 60 days of such
rulemaking action. Thus, EPA sees no
need in this action to reopen the 60-day
period for filing such petitions for
judicial review for these ‘‘Identification
of plan’’ reorganization actions for
Massachusetts.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
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
CFR 51.165, as amended by the final
rule titled ‘‘Implementation of the 2008
National Ambient Air Quality Standards
for Ozone: State Implementation Plan
Requirements’’ (SIP Requirements Rule),
for ozone and its precursors.1 See 80 FR
12264 (March 6, 2015).
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
1 The SIP Requirements Rule addresses a range of
nonattainment area SIP requirements for the 2008
8-hour ozone NAAQS, including requirements
pertaining to attainment demonstrations, reasonable
further progress (RFP), reasonably available control
technology, reasonably available control measures,
major new source review, emission inventories, and
the timing of SIP submissions and of compliance
with emission control measures in the SIP. The rule
also revokes the 1997 ozone NAAQS and
establishes anti-backsliding requirements.

I. Background
A. Description of a SIP
Each State has a SIP containing the control measures and strategies
to attain and maintain the National Ambient Air Quality Standards
(NAAQS). The SIP is extensive, containing such elements as air
pollution control regulations, emission inventories, monitoring
networks, attainment demonstrations, and enforcement mechanisms.
B. How EPA Enforces SIPs
Before formally adopting required control measures and strategies,
each State must provide the public with an opportunity to comment on
them. The States then submit these measures and strategies to EPA as
requested SIP revisions on which EPA must formally act.
When these control measures and strategies are approved by EPA,
after notice and comment rulemaking, they are incorporated into the
Federally-approved SIP and identified in title 40 of the Code of
Federal Regulations, part 52 (Approval and Promulgation of
Implementation Plans) (40 CFR part 52). The actual State regulations
approved by EPA are not reproduced in their entirety in 40 CFR part 52,
but are ``incorporated by reference,'' which means that EPA has
approved a given State regulation with a specific effective date. This
format allows both EPA and the public to know which measures are
contained in a given SIP and to help determine whether the State is
enforcing the regulations.
C. How the State and EPA Update the SIP
The SIP is periodically revised as necessary to address the unique
air pollution problems in the State. Therefore, EPA from time to time
takes action on State SIP submissions containing new and/or revised
regulations and other materials; if approved, they become part of the
SIP. On May 22, 1997 (62 FR 27968), EPA revised the procedures for
incorporating by reference federally approved SIPs, as a result of
consultations between EPA and the Office of the Federal Register (OFR).
As a result, EPA began the process of developing the following: (1)
A revised SIP document for each State that would be incorporated by
reference under the provisions of title 1 CFR part 51; (2) a revised
mechanism for announcing EPA approval of revisions to an applicable SIP
and updating both the IBR document and the CFR; and (3) a revised
format of the ``Identification of plan'' sections for each applicable
subpart to reflect these revised IBR procedures. The description of the
revised SIP document, IBR procedures, and ``Identification of plan''
format are discussed in further detail in the May 22, 1997, Federal
Register document.
D. How EPA Compiles the SIP
The Federally-approved regulations, source-specific requirements,
and nonregulatory provisions (entirely or portions of) submitted by
each State agency and approved by EPA have been organized into a ``SIP
compilation.'' The SIP compilation contains the updated regulations,
source-specific requirements, and nonregulatory provisions approved by
EPA through
[[Page 3966]]
previous rulemaking actions in the Federal Register.
E. How EPA Organizes the SIP Compilation
Each SIP compilation contains three parts approved by EPA: Part one
contains regulations; part two contains source-specific requirements;
and part three contains nonregulatory provisions. Each State's SIP
compilation contains a table of identifying information for each of
these three parts. In this action, EPA is publishing the tables
summarizing the applicable SIP requirements for Massachusetts. The
effective dates in the tables indicate the date of the most recent
revision of each regulation. The EPA Region 1 Office has the primary
responsibility for updating the compilation and ensuring its accuracy.
F. Where You Can Find a Copy of the SIP Compilation
EPA's Region 1 Office developed and will maintain the compilation
for Massachusetts. A copy of the full text of Massachusetts' regulatory
and source-specific compilations will also be maintained at NARA.
G. The Format of the New Identification of Plan Section
To better serve the public, EPA revised the organization of the
``Identification of plan'' section and included additional information
to clarify which provisions are the enforceable elements of the SIP.
The revised Identification of plan section contains five
subsections: (a) Purpose and scope; (b) Incorporation by reference; (c)
EPA-approved regulations; (d) EPA-approved source-specific
requirements; and (e) EPA-approved nonregulatory provisions such as
transportation control measures, statutory provisions, control
strategies, and monitoring networks.
H. When a State Submission Becomes Part of the SIP and Federally
Enforceable
All revisions to the applicable SIP become federally enforceable as
of the effective date of the revisions to paragraphs (c), (d), or (e)
of the applicable Identification of Plan section found in each subpart
of 40 CFR part 52.
I. The Historical Record of SIP Revision Approvals
To facilitate enforcement of previously-approved SIP provisions and
provide a smooth transition to the new SIP compilation, EPA has
retained the original Identification of plan section, previously
appearing in the CFR as the first or second section of part 52 for each
State subpart. After an initial two-year period, EPA will review its
experience with the new table format and will decide whether or not to
retain the Identification of plan appendices for some further period.
II. What is EPA doing in this action?
Today's rule constitutes a record keeping exercise to ensure that
all revisions to the State programs and accompanying SIP that have
already occurred are accurately reflected in 40 CFR part 52. State SIP
revisions are controlled by EPA regulations at 40 CFR part 51. When EPA
receives a formal SIP revision request, the Agency must publish
proposed rulemaking in the Federal Register and provide for public
comment before approval.
EPA has determined that today's rule falls under the ``good cause''
exemption in section 553(b)(3)(B) of the Administrative Procedures Act
(APA) which, upon finding ``good cause,'' authorizes agencies to
dispense with public participation and section 553(d)(3) which allows
an agency to make a rule effective immediately, thereby avoiding the
30-day delayed effective date otherwise provided for in the APA.
Today's rule simply codifies provisions which are already in effect as
a matter of law in Federal and approved State programs. Accordingly, we
find that public comment is ``unnecessary'' and ``contrary to the
public interest'' under section 553 of the APA, since the codification
of the revised format for denoting IBR of the State materials into the
SIP only reflects existing law and since immediate notice in the CFR
benefits the public by removing outdated citations from the CFR.
III. 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 the
Massachusetts Regulations described in amendments to 40 CFR part 52 set
forth below. EPA has made, and will continue to make, these documents
generally available electronically through www.regulations.gov and/or
in hard copy at the appropriate EPA office (see the ADDRESSES section
of this preamble for more information).
IV. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
A. General Requirements
Under Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993) and
13563 (76 FR 3821, January 21, 2011), this action is not a
``significant regulatory action'' and is therefore not subject to
review by the Office of Management and Budget. This rule is not subject
to Executive Order 13211, ``Actions Concerning Regulations That
Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use'' (66 FR
28355, May 22, 2001) because it is not a significant regulatory action
under Executive Order 12866. Because the agency has made a ``good
cause'' finding that this action is not subject to notice-and-comment
requirements under the Administrative Procedure Act or any other
statute as indicated in the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section above, it
is not subject to the regulatory flexibility provisions of the
Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C 601 et seq.), or to sections 202
and 205 of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (UMRA) (Pub. L.
104-4). In addition, this action does not significantly or uniquely
affect small governments or impose a significant intergovernmental
mandate, as described in sections 203 and 204 of UMRA. This rule also
does not have a substantial direct effect on one or more Indian Tribes,
on the relationship between the Federal government and Indian Tribes,
or on the distribution of power and responsibilities between the
Federal government and Indian Tribes, as specified by Executive Order
13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000), nor will it have substantial
direct effects on the States, on the relationship between the national
government and the States, or on the distribution of power and
responsibilities among the various levels of government, as specified
in Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999). This rule also
is not subject to Executive Order 13045 (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997),
because it is not economically significant. This rule does not involve
technical standards; thus the requirements of section 12(d) of the
National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272
note) do not apply. The rule also does not involve special
consideration of environmental justice related issues as required by
Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994). In issuing this
rule, EPA has taken the necessary steps to eliminate drafting errors
and ambiguity, minimize potential litigation, and provide a clear legal
standard for affected conduct, as required by section 3 of Executive
Order 12988 (61 FR 4729, February 7, 1996). EPA has complied with
Executive Order 12630 (53 FR 8859, March 15, 1998) by examining the
takings implications of the rule in accordance with the ``Attorney
General's Supplemental Guidelines for the Evaluation of Risk
[[Page 3967]]
and Avoidance of Unanticipated Takings'' issued under the executive
order. This rule does not impose an information collection burden under
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.). EPA's
compliance with these statutes and Executive Orders for the underlying
rules are discussed in previous actions taken on the State's rules.
B. Submission to Congress and the Comptroller General
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. Section 808 allows the issuing agency to
make a rule effective sooner than otherwise provided by the CRA if the
agency makes a good cause finding that notice and public procedure is
impracticable, unnecessary or contrary to the public interest. Today's
action simply codifies provisions which are already in effect as a
matter of law in Federal and approved State programs. 5 U.S.C. 808(2).
As stated previously, EPA has made such a good cause finding, including
the reasons therefore, and established an effective date of January 29,
2018. EPA will submit a report containing this rule 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. This rule is not a ``major rule'' as
defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2).
C. Petitions for Judicial Review
EPA has also determined that the provisions of section 307(b)(1) of
the Clean Air Act pertaining to petitions for judicial review are not
applicable to this action. Prior EPA rulemaking actions for each
individual component of the Massachusetts SIP compilation had
previously afforded interested parties the opportunity to file a
petition for judicial review in the United States Court of Appeals for
the appropriate circuit within 60 days of such rulemaking action. Thus,
EPA sees no need in this action to reopen the 60-day period for filing
such petitions for judicial review for these ``Identification of plan''
reorganization actions for Massachusetts.
