Order dated February 26, 2018, denying
Petitions dated October 25, 2016 and
January 25, 2017 from the Ho-Chunk
Nation and the Sierra Club John Muir
Chapter. The first Petition requested
that EPA object to a Clean Air Act
(CAA) title V operating permit issued by
the Wisconsin Department of Natural
Resources (WDNR) to Superior Silica
Sands for its industrial sand mining and
processing facility in Barron County,
Wisconsin. The second Petition also
requested that EPA object to a CAA title

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The CAA
affords EPA a 45-day period to review
and object to, as appropriate, operating
permits proposed by state permitting
authorities under title V of the CAA.
Section 505(b)(2) of the CAA authorizes
any person to petition the EPA
Administrator to object to a title V
operating permit within 60 days after
the expiration of EPA’s 45-day review
period, if EPA has not objected on its
own initiative. Petitions must be based
only on objections to the permit that
were raised with reasonable specificity
during the public comment period
provided by the state, unless the
petitioner demonstrates that it was
impracticable to raise these issues
during the comment period or unless
the grounds for the issues arose after
this period.
EPA received the Petitions from HoChunk Nation and the Sierra Club John
Muir Chapter dated October 25, 2016
and January 25, 2017, requesting that
EPA object to the issuance of operating
permit no. 603110860–P01, issued by
the WDNR to Superior Silica Sands for
its industrial sand mining and
processing facility in Barron County,
Wisconsin, and operating permit no.
627026620–P01, issued by the WDNR to
Wisconsin Proppants for it industrial
sand mine and processing facility in
Jackson County, Wisconsin. The
Petitions alleged that (1) the permits are
deficient because they do not include
emissions estimates for all sources of
particulate matter of less than 2.5
microns (PM 2.5), (2) the permits are
deficient because PM 2.5 limits that
were based on previous modeling were
removed and WDNR has not made a
defensible finding that the proposed
permits will not cause or contribute to
an exceedance of any ambient air
quality standard, and (3) (raised in

Superior Silica Sands only) the permit
does not assure compliance with New
Source Performance Standard for PM
limits because the permit does not
require the facility to operate the control
device according to all of the design
parameters specified in the
manufacturer’s guarantees.
On February 26, 2018, the EPA
Administrator issued an Order denying
the Petitions. The Order explains the
basis for EPA’s decision.
Sections 307(b) and 505(b)(2) of the
CAA provide that a petitioner may
request judicial review of those portions
of an order that deny issues in a
petition. Any petition for review shall
be filed in the United States Court of
Appeals for the appropriate circuit no
later than June 4, 2018.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On
October 13, 2005, the final Cross-Media
Electronic Reporting Rule (CROMERR)

(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 or modification 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 40 CFR part 3, subpart D
provides special procedures for program
revisions and modifications to allow
electronic reporting, to be used at the
option of the state, tribe or local
government in place of procedures
available under existing programspecific 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 February 14, 2018, the California
State Water Resources Control Board
(CA SWRCB) submitted an application
titled ‘‘Compliance Monitoring Data
Portal’’ for revision to its EPA-approved
drinking water program under title 40
CFR to allow new electronic reporting.
EPA reviewed CA SWRCB’s request to
revise its EPA-authorized 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 California’s request to revise
its Part 142—National Primary Drinking
Water Regulations Implementation
program to allow electronic reporting
under 40 CFR part 141 is being
published in the Federal Register.
CA SWRCB was notified of EPA’s
determination to approve its application
with respect to the authorized program
listed above.
Also, in today’s notice, EPA is
informing interested persons that they
may request a public hearing on EPA’s
action to approve the State of
California’s request to revise its
authorized public water system program
under 40 CFR part 142, in accordance
with 40 CFR 3.1000(f). Requests for a
hearing must be submitted to EPA
within 30 days of publication of today’s
Federal Register notice. Such requests

should include the following
information:
(1) The name, address and telephone
number of the individual, organization
or other entity requesting a hearing;
(2) A brief statement of the requesting
person’s interest in EPA’s
determination, a brief explanation as to
why EPA should hold a hearing, and
any other information that the
requesting person wants EPA to
consider when determining whether to
grant the request;
(3) The signature of the individual
making the request, or, if the request is
made on behalf of an organization or
other entity, the signature of a
responsible official of the organization
or other entity.
In the event a hearing is requested
and granted, EPA will provide notice of
the hearing in the Federal Register not
less than 15 days prior to the scheduled
hearing date. Frivolous or insubstantial
requests for hearing may be denied by
EPA. Following such a public hearing,
EPA will review the record of the
hearing and issue an order either
affirming today’s determination or
rescinding such determination. If no
timely request for a hearing is received
and granted, EPA’s approval of the State
of California’s request to revise its part
142—National Primary Drinking Water
Regulations Implementation program to
allow electronic reporting will become
effective 30 days after today’s notice is
published, pursuant to CROMERR
section 3.1000(f)(4).
