[EPA–R08–OAR–2017–0698; FRL–9976–58Region 8]
Approval and Promulgation of State

Pollutants; North Dakota; Control of
Emissions From Existing Commercial
and Industrial Solid Waste Incineration
Units
Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA)
ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
The Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) is approving a revised
state plan (the ‘‘plan’’) submitted by the
North Dakota Department of Health (the
‘‘Department’’) for the regulation of
existing commercial and industrial solid
waste incineration (CISWI) units within
the jurisdiction of the State of North
Dakota. The Department submitted the
plan to the EPA for approval following
the promulgation of federal new source
performance standards (NSPS) and
emission guidelines (EG) for CISWI
units on March 21, 2011, and the
subsequent, limited revisions to that
final rule published on February 7,
2013, and June 23, 2016. This plan
approval final rulemaking action is
being taken in accordance with sections
111(d) and 129 of the Clean Air Act
(CAA, or the ‘‘Act’’).
DATES: This final rule is effective on
May 25, 2018.
ADDRESSES: The EPA has established a
docket for this action under Docket ID
No. EPA–R08–OAR–2017–0698. All
documents in the docket are listed on
the https://www.regulations.gov website.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
INFORMATION CONTACT
Sections 111 and 129 of the CAA
outline the EPA’s statutory authority for
regulating new and existing solid waste
incineration units. Section 111(b)
directs the EPA Administrator (the
‘‘Administrator’’) to publish and
periodically revise a list of source
categories which significantly cause or
contribute to air pollution. This
subsection also directs the
Administrator to establish federal
standards of performance for new
sources within these categories. Section
111(d) grants the EPA statutory
authority to require states to submit to
the agency implementation plans for
establishing performance standards
applicable to existing sources belonging
to those categories established in section
111(b). Section 129 of the CAA
specifically addresses solid waste
combustion and requires that the EPA
regulate new and existing waste
incineration units pursuant to section
111 of the Act, including the
requirement that a state in which
existing designated facilities operate,
submit for approval, a state plan for
each category of regulated waste
incineration units. Section 129(b)(3)
requires the EPA to promulgate a federal
plan for existing waste incineration
units of any designated category located
in any state which has not submitted an
approvable 111(d)/129 state plan for
said category of waste incineration
units. Such federal plans remain in
effect until the state in question submits
a new or revised state plan and
subsequently receives approval and
promulgation of the plan under 40 CFR
part 62.
State plan submittals under CAA
sections 111(d) and 129 must be
consistent with the relevant new or
revised EG. Section 129(a)(1)(D) of the
Act requires the EPA to develop and
periodically revise operating standards
for new and existing CISWI units. The
original NSPS and EG for CISWI units
were promulgated on December 1, 2000,
at 40 CFR part 60, subparts CCCC and
DDDD, respectively. Revisions to the
CISWI NSPS and EG were subsequently
promulgated by the EPA on March 21,

2011 (76 FR 15704), with final actions
on reconsideration of the rule published
on February 7, 2013 (78 FR 9112), and
June 23, 2016 (81 FR 40956). State plan
requirements specific to CISWI units,
along with a model rule to ease
adoption of the EG, are found in subpart
DDDD, while more general state plan
requirements are found in 40 CFR part
60, subpart B, and part 62, subpart A.
The guidelines found in subpart DDDD
require that states impose emission
limits on designated facilities for those
pollutants regulated under section 129,
including: dioxins/furans, carbon
monoxide, metals (cadmium, lead and
mercury), hydrogen chloride, sulfur
dioxide, oxides of nitrogen, opacity and
particulate matter. The EG also requires
that state plans include essential
elements pursuant to section 129
requirements, including monitoring,
operator training and facility permitting
requirements.
On June 12, 2014, the Department
submitted to the EPA a revised section
111(d)/129 state plan for existing CISWI
units in the State of North Dakota. The
current state plan received final
approval and was promulgated on
September 17, 2003 (68 FR 54374), at 40
CFR part 62, subpart JJ. Pursuant to each
state’s obligations following the revision
of the CISWI rule, the State of North
Dakota has revised their state
rulemaking, and has submitted a revised
state plan document as well as a
demonstration of legal and enforcement
authority to comply with CAA section
111/129 requirements.
II. Summary of North Dakota’s Revised
Section 111(d)/129 Plan for Existing
CISWI Units
The EPA has completed a review of
the revised North Dakota section 111(d)/
129 state plan for existing CISWI units.
The EPA has determined that the plan
submittal meets the requirements found
in 40 CFR part 60, subparts B and
DDDD, and those of part 62, subpart A
of that title. Accordingly, the EPA is
approving the submitted revised plan as
proposed. See 83 FR 3656 (January 26,
2018). The EPA’s final approval action
is limited to the revised North Dakota
CISWI state plan document, submitted
to the EPA on June 12, 2014, and the
subpart DDDD ‘‘Model Rule’’ as it was
incorporated by the State in the North
Dakota Administrative Code (NDAC) at
Chapter 33–15–12–02, subpart DDDD. A
detailed summary of the submittal’s
compliance with the EG and other
federal regulatory requirements is
available in the technical support
document (TSD) associated with this
rulemaking action. The TSD is available
in the docket for this rulemaking action
