II. What is being addressed in this
document?
The EPA is proposing to approve the
infrastructure SIP submission received
from the State of Nebraska on
September 24, 2018. Specifically, EPA is
proposing to approve the following
infrastructure elements of section
110(a)(2): (A) through (C), (D)(i)(I)—
prongs 1 and 2, (D)(i)(II)—prong 3,
(D)(ii), (E) through (H), and (J) through
(M).
A Technical Support Document
(TSD), is included as part of the docket
to discuss the details of this proposed
action, including an analysis of how the
SIP meets the applicable 110(a)(1) and
(2) requirements for infrastructure SIPs.
As explained in the TSD, EPA plans to
take separate action on the
infrastructure elements under section
110(a)(2)(D)(i)(II)—prong 4. The EPA is
not taking action on section
110(a)(2)(I)—Nonattainment Area Plan
or Plan Revisions Under Part D.
III. Have the requirements for approval
of a SIP revision been met?
The state submission has met the
public notice requirements for SIP
submissions in accordance with 40 CFR
51.102. The submission also satisfied
the completeness criteria of 40 CFR part
51, appendix V. The state provided a
public comment period for this SIP
revision from August 7, 2018 to
September 7, 2018, and at the same
time, offered an opportunity for a public
hearing. The state received no
comments and no requests for a public
hearing. The public hearing scheduled
for September 11, 2018 was canceled. In
addition, as explained in more detail in
the TSD, the revision meets the
substantive SIP requirements of the
CAA, including section 110 and
implementing regulations.
IV. What action is EPA taking?
The EPA is proposing to approve
elements of the September 24, 2018,
infrastructure SIP submission from the
State of Nebraska, which address the
requirements of CAA sections 110(a)(1)
and (2) as applicable to the 2015 O3
NAAQS. Specifically, the EPA is
proposing to approve the following
infrastructure elements of 110(a)(2): (A)
through (C), (D)(i)(I)—prongs 1 and 2,
(D)(i)(II)—prong 3, (D)(ii), (E) through
(H), and (J) through (M). As explained
in the TSD, the EPA intends to act on
section 110(a)(2)(D)(i)(II)—prong 4, in a
E:\FR\FM\09MYP1.SGM

20319

subsequent rulemaking. The EPA is not
taking action on section 110(a)(2)(I)—
Nonattainment Area Plan or Plan
Revisions under part D.
Based upon review of the state’s
infrastructure SIP submissions and
relevant statutory and regulatory
authorities and provisions referenced in
those submissions or referenced in
Nebraska’s SIP, the EPA believes that
Nebraska’s SIP will meet all applicable
required elements of sections 110(a)(1)
and (2) (except as otherwise noted) with
respect to the 2015 O3 NAAQS. We are
processing this as a proposed action
because we are soliciting comments on
this proposed action. Final rulemaking
will occur after consideration of any
comments.
VI. Statutory and Executive Order
Reviews
Under the CAA, the Administrator is
required to approve a SIP submission
that complies with the provisions of the
CAA and applicable Federal regulations.
42 U.S.C. 7410(k); 40 CFR 52.02(a).
Thus, in reviewing SIP submissions,
EPA’s role is to approve state choices,
provided that they meet the criteria of
the CAA. Accordingly, this action
merely approves state law as meeting
Federal requirements and does not
impose additional requirements beyond
those imposed by state law. For that
reason, this action:
• Is not a significant regulatory action
subject to review by the Office of
Management and Budget under
Executive Orders 12866 (58 FR 51735,
October 4, 1993) and 13563 (76 FR 3821,
January 21, 2011);
• Is not an Executive Order 13771 (82
FR 9339, February 2, 2017) regulatory
action because SIP approvals are
exempted under Executive Order 12866.
• Does not impose an information
collection burden under the provisions
of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44
U.S.C. 3501 et seq.);
• Is certified as not having a
significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities
under the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5
U.S.C. 601 et seq.);
• 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);
• Does not have Federalism
implications as specified in Executive
Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10,
1999);
• Is not an economically significant
regulatory action based on health or
safety risks subject to Executive Order
13045 (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997);
• Is not a significant regulatory action
subject to Executive Order 13211 (66 FR
28355, May 22, 2001);
• Is not subject to requirements of the
National Technology Transfer and
Advancement Act (NTTA) because this
rulemaking does not involve technical
standards; and
• Does not provide EPA with the
discretionary authority to address, as
appropriate, disproportionate human
health or environmental effects, using
practicable and legally permissible
methods, under Executive Order 12898
(59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).
The SIP 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).

granting of the pesticide petitions. After
considering the public comments, EPA
intends to evaluate whether and what
action may be warranted. Additional
data may be needed before EPA can
make a final determination on these
pesticide petitions.
Pursuant to 40 CFR 180.7(f), a
summary of each of the petitions that
are the subject of this document,
prepared by the petitioner, is included
in a docket EPA has created for each

petitions is available at https://
www.regulations.gov.
As specified in FFDCA section
408(d)(3), 21 U.S.C. 346a(d)(3), EPA is
publishing notice of the petitions so that
the public has an opportunity to
comment on these requests for the
establishment or modification of
regulations for residues of pesticides in
or on food commodities. Further
information on the petitions may be
obtained through the petition
summaries referenced in this unit.

II. What is being addressed in this document?
The EPA is proposing to approve the infrastructure SIP submission
received from the State of Nebraska on September 24, 2018.
Specifically, EPA is proposing to approve the following infrastructure
elements of section 110(a)(2): (A) through (C), (D)(i)(I)--prongs 1 and
2, (D)(i)(II)--prong 3, (D)(ii), (E) through (H), and (J) through (M).
A Technical Support Document (TSD), is included as part of the
docket to discuss the details of this proposed action, including an
analysis of how the SIP meets the applicable 110(a)(1) and (2)
requirements for infrastructure SIPs. As explained in the TSD, EPA
plans to take separate action on the infrastructure elements under
section 110(a)(2)(D)(i)(II)--prong 4. The EPA is not taking action on
section 110(a)(2)(I)--Nonattainment Area Plan or Plan Revisions Under
Part D.
III. Have the requirements for approval of a SIP revision been met?
The state submission has met the public notice requirements for SIP
submissions in accordance with 40 CFR 51.102. The submission also
satisfied the completeness criteria of 40 CFR part 51, appendix V. The
state provided a public comment period for this SIP revision from
August 7, 2018 to September 7, 2018, and at the same time, offered an
opportunity for a public hearing. The state received no comments and no
requests for a public hearing. The public hearing scheduled for
September 11, 2018 was canceled. In addition, as explained in more
detail in the TSD, the revision meets the substantive SIP requirements
of the CAA, including section 110 and implementing regulations.
IV. What action is EPA taking?
The EPA is proposing to approve elements of the September 24, 2018,
infrastructure SIP submission from the State of Nebraska, which address
the requirements of CAA sections 110(a)(1) and (2) as applicable to the
2015 O3 NAAQS. Specifically, the EPA is proposing to approve
the following infrastructure elements of 110(a)(2): (A) through (C),
(D)(i)(I)--prongs 1 and 2, (D)(i)(II)--prong 3, (D)(ii), (E) through
(H), and (J) through (M). As explained in the TSD, the EPA intends to
act on section 110(a)(2)(D)(i)(II)--prong 4, in a
[[Page 20319]]
subsequent rulemaking. The EPA is not taking action on section
110(a)(2)(I)--Nonattainment Area Plan or Plan Revisions under part D.
Based upon review of the state's infrastructure SIP submissions and
relevant statutory and regulatory authorities and provisions referenced
in those submissions or referenced in Nebraska's SIP, the EPA believes
that Nebraska's SIP will meet all applicable required elements of
sections 110(a)(1) and (2) (except as otherwise noted) with respect to
the 2015 O3 NAAQS. We are processing this as a proposed
action because we are soliciting comments on this proposed action.
Final rulemaking will occur after consideration of any comments.
VI. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
Under the CAA, the Administrator is required to approve a SIP
submission that complies with the provisions of the CAA and applicable
Federal regulations. 42 U.S.C. 7410(k); 40 CFR 52.02(a). Thus, in
reviewing SIP submissions, EPA's role is to approve state choices,
provided that they meet the criteria of the CAA. Accordingly, this
action merely approves state law as meeting Federal requirements and
does not impose additional requirements beyond those imposed by state
law. For that reason, this action:
Is not a significant regulatory action subject to review
by the Office of Management and Budget under Executive Orders 12866 (58
FR 51735, October 4, 1993) and 13563 (76 FR 3821, January 21, 2011);
Is not an Executive Order 13771 (82 FR 9339, February 2,
2017) regulatory action because SIP approvals are exempted under
Executive Order 12866.
Does not impose an information collection burden under the
provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.);
Is certified as not having a significant economic impact
on a substantial number of small entities under the Regulatory
Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.);
