SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Throughout this document whenever
‘‘we,’’ ‘‘us,’’ or ‘‘our’’ is used, we mean
EPA. This supplementary information
section is arranged as follows:
I. Background
II. What action is EPA taking?
III. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
I. Background
On February 3, 2017, MPCA
submitted its CISWI negative
declaration, in which MPCA certified
that there are no existing CISWI units
currently operating in Minnesota.
On June 21, 2017, MPCA submitted
its OSWI negative declaration, in which
it certified that there are no existing
OSWI units currently operating in
Minnesota.
On September 27, 2018, EPA
published a notice of proposed
rulemaking (NPRM) proposing notice of
Minnesota’s negative declarations for
CISWI and OSWI. The specific details of
Minnesota’s request and the rationale
for EPA’s approval are discussed in the
NPRM and will not be restated here.
EPA did not receive any comments on
the proposed action.
II. What action is EPA taking?
EPA is notifying the public of EPA’s
receipt of MPCA’s negative declarations
for both CISWI and OSWI facilities and
amending 40 CFR part 62 to reflect both
negative declarations. For CISWI, EPA
received the negative declaration on
February 3, 2017, and for OSWI, EPA
received the negative declaration on
June 21, 2017. In this action, EPA is
finalizing its notification. EPA is also
adding 40 CFR part 62.5880 and 62.5890
to reflect these notifications.

III. Statutory and Executive Order
Reviews
A. General Requirements
This action is not a ‘‘significant
regulatory action’’ under the terms of
Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 51735,
October 4, 1993) and therefore is not
subject to review by the Office of
Management and Budget under
Executive Orders 12866 and 13563 (76
FR 3821, January 21, 2011). For this
reason, this action is also not subject to
Executive Order 13211, ‘‘Actions
Concerning Regulations That
Significantly Affect Energy Supply,
Distribution, or Use’’ (66 FR 28355, May
22, 2001). This action is not an
Executive Order 13771 (82 FR 9339,
February 2, 2017) regulatory action
because this action is not significant
under E.O. 12866. This action merely
approves state law as meeting Federal
requirements and merely notifies the
public of EPA’s receipt of negative
declarations from an air pollution
control agency without any existing
CISWI or OSWI units in its state. This
action imposes no requirements beyond
those imposed by the state. Accordingly,
the Administrator certifies that this rule
will not have a significant economic
impact on a substantial number of small
entities under the Regulatory Flexibility
Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.). Because this
rule pertains to pre-existing
requirements under state law and does
not impose any additional enforceable
duty beyond that required by state law,
it does not contain any unfunded
mandate or significantly or uniquely
affect small governments, as described
in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act
of 1995 (Pub. L. 104–4). This rule is not
approved to apply on any Indian
reservation land or in any other area
where EPA or an Indian tribe has
demonstrated that a tribe has
jurisdiction. In those areas of Indian
country, the rule does not have tribal
implications and will not impose
substantial direct costs on tribal
governments or preempt tribal law as
specified by Executive Order 13175 (65
FR 67249, November 9, 2000). This
action also does not have Federalism
implications because it does not 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 action merely
provides notice of receipt of negative
declarations, and does not alter the
relationship or the distribution of power
and responsibilities established in the
PO 00000
Frm 00024
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
Act. This rule also is not subject to
Executive Order 13045 (62 FR 19885,
April 23, 1997), because it just notifying
the public regarding receipt of the
negative declarations.
In reviewing state plan submissions,
EPA’s role is to approve state choices,
provided that they meet the criteria of
the Act. With regard to negative
declarations for designated facilities
received by EPA from states, EPA’s role
is to notify the public of the receipt of
such negative declarations and revise 40
CFR part 62 accordingly. In this context,
in the absence of a prior existing
requirement for the state to use
voluntary consensus standards (VCS),
EPA has no authority to disapprove a
state plan submission or negative
declaration for failure to use VCS. It
would thus be inconsistent with
applicable law for EPA, when it reviews
a state plan or negative declaration
submission, to use VCS in place of a
state plan or negative declaration
submission that otherwise satisfies the
provisions of the Act. 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. This rule does
not impose an information collection
burden under the provisions of the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44
U.S.C. 3501 et seq.).
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. EPA will submit a
report containing this action 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. A major rule
cannot take effect until 60 days after it
is published in the Federal Register.
This action is not a ‘‘major rule’’ as
defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2).
Under section 307(b)(1) of the Act,
petitions for judicial review of this
action must be filed in the United States
Court of Appeals for the appropriate
circuit by May 6, 2019. Filing a petition
for reconsideration by the Administrator
of this final rule does not affect the
finality of this action for the purposes of
judicial review nor does it extend the
time within which a petition for judicial
review may be filed, and shall not
postpone the effectiveness of such rule
or action. This action may not be
challenged later in proceedings to

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is notifying the
public that we have received negative declarations from Minnesota
pertaining to the presence of Commercial and Industrial Solid Waste
Incineration (CISWI) units and Other Solid Waste Incineration (OSWI)
units in Minnesota. The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA)
submitted its CISWI negative declaration by letter dated February 3,
2017, and its OSWI negative declaration by letter dated June 21, 2017.
MPCA notified EPA in its negative declaration letters that there are no
CISWI or OSWI units subject to the requirements of the Clean Air Act
(Act) currently operating in Minnesota. On September 27, 2018, EPA
published a notice of proposed rulemaking for these declarations.
DATES: This final rule is effective on April 5, 2019.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Throughout this document whenever ``we,''
``us,'' or ``our'' is used, we mean EPA. This supplementary information
section is arranged as follows:
I. Background
II. What action is EPA taking?
III. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
I. Background
On February 3, 2017, MPCA submitted its CISWI negative declaration,
in which MPCA certified that there are no existing CISWI units
currently operating in Minnesota.
On June 21, 2017, MPCA submitted its OSWI negative declaration, in
which it certified that there are no existing OSWI units currently
operating in Minnesota.
On September 27, 2018, EPA published a notice of proposed
rulemaking (NPRM) proposing notice of Minnesota's negative declarations
for CISWI and OSWI. The specific details of Minnesota's request and the
rationale for EPA's approval are discussed in the NPRM and will not be
restated here. EPA did not receive any comments on the proposed action.
II. What action is EPA taking?
EPA is notifying the public of EPA's receipt of MPCA's negative
declarations for both CISWI and OSWI facilities and amending 40 CFR
part 62 to reflect both negative declarations. For CISWI, EPA received
the negative declaration on February 3, 2017, and for OSWI, EPA
received the negative declaration on June 21, 2017. In this action, EPA
is finalizing its notification. EPA is also adding 40 CFR part 62.5880
and 62.5890 to reflect these notifications.
III. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
A. General Requirements
This action is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under the
terms of Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993) and
therefore is not subject to review by the Office of Management and
Budget under Executive Orders 12866 and 13563 (76 FR 3821, January 21,
2011). For this reason, this action is also not subject to Executive
Order 13211, ``Actions Concerning Regulations That Significantly Affect
Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use'' (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001). This
action is not an Executive Order 13771 (82 FR 9339, February 2, 2017)
regulatory action because this action is not significant under E.O.
12866. This action merely approves state law as meeting Federal
requirements and merely notifies the public of EPA's receipt of
negative declarations from an air pollution control agency without any
existing CISWI or OSWI units in its state. This action imposes no
requirements beyond those imposed by the state. Accordingly, the
Administrator certifies that this rule will not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial number of small entities under the
Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.). Because this rule
pertains to pre-existing requirements under state law and does not
impose any additional enforceable duty beyond that required by state
law, it does not contain any unfunded mandate or significantly or
uniquely affect small governments, as described in the Unfunded
Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-4). This rule is not approved
to apply on any Indian reservation land or in any other area where EPA
or an Indian tribe has demonstrated that a tribe has jurisdiction. In
those areas of Indian country, the rule does not have tribal
implications and will not impose substantial direct costs on tribal
governments or preempt tribal law as specified by Executive Order 13175
(65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000). This action also does not have
Federalism implications because it does not 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 action
merely provides notice of receipt of negative declarations, and does
not alter the relationship or the distribution of power and
responsibilities established in the Act. This rule also is not subject
to Executive Order 13045 (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997), because it just
notifying the public regarding receipt of the negative declarations.
In reviewing state plan submissions, EPA's role is to approve state
choices, provided that they meet the criteria of the Act. With regard
to negative declarations for designated facilities received by EPA from
states, EPA's role is to notify the public of the receipt of such
negative declarations and revise 40 CFR part 62 accordingly. In this
context, in the absence of a prior existing requirement for the state
to use voluntary consensus standards (VCS), EPA has no authority to
disapprove a state plan submission or negative declaration for failure
to use VCS. It would thus be inconsistent with applicable law for EPA,
when it reviews a state plan or negative declaration submission, to use
VCS in place of a state plan or negative declaration submission that
otherwise satisfies the provisions of the Act. 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. This rule does not
impose an information collection burden under the provisions of the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.).
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. EPA will submit a report containing this action 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. A major rule cannot
take effect until 60 days after it is published in the Federal
Register. This action is not a ``major rule'' as defined by 5 U.S.C.
804(2).
Under section 307(b)(1) of the Act, petitions for judicial review
of this action must be filed in the United States Court of Appeals for
the appropriate circuit by May 6, 2019. Filing a petition for
reconsideration by the Administrator of this final rule does not affect
the finality of this action for the purposes of judicial review nor
does it extend the time within which a petition for judicial review may
be filed, and shall not postpone the effectiveness of such rule or
action. This action may not be challenged later in proceedings to
[[Page 8003]]
enforce its requirements. (See section 307(b)(2).)
