ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
The Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) is taking final action to
approve a State Implementation Plan
(SIP) revision submitted by the State of
Missouri on November 2, 2018. This
final action replaces a Consent Decree in
Missouri’s SIP with an Administrative
Order on Consent (AOC) between the
Missouri Department of Natural
Resources (MoDNR) and Kansas City
Power and Light (KCPL). The EPA is
also approving an amendment to the
AOC. This action strengthens Missouri’s
SIP by replacing an outdated Consent
Decree with an AOC and its
Amendment that reflect current
operating conditions at the facility and
does not result in an increase in sulfur
dioxide (SO2) emissions from the Lake
Road Generating Facility.
DATES: This final rule is effective on
September 23, 2019.

V. Incorporation by Reference
VI. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
I. Background
On June 17, 2019, the EPA proposed
to approve revisions in the Federal
Register to the Missouri SIP that
replaced a Consent Decree in Missouri’s
SIP with an AOC between the MoDNR
and KCPL. See 84 FR 27996. The EPA
also proposed to approve an amendment
to the AOC. The EPA solicited
comments on the proposed revision to
Missouri’s SIP, and did not receive any
comments.
II. What is being addressed in this
document?
The EPA is approving a SIP revision
submitted by the State of Missouri on
November 2, 2018. The revision consists
of an AOC between the MoDNR and
KCPL that limits emissions of SO2 from
KCPL’s Lake Road Generating facility in
St. Joseph, Missouri, and an
Amendment to the AOC. The AOC and
its Amendment replace a Consent
Decree in Missouri’s SIP and
strengthens SO2 control requirements
for KCPL’s Lake Road Generating
facility by limiting the types of fuels
that may be combusted in boilers at the
facility. This action strengthens
Missouri’s SIP by replacing an outdated
Consent Decree with an AOC and its
Amendment that reflect current
operating conditions at the facility and
does not result in an increase in SO2
emissions from the Lake Road
Generating Facility.
A detailed discussion of Missouri’s
SIP revision was provided in EPA’s June
17, 2019, Federal Register document
and in a Technical Support Document

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
public notice on this SIP revision from
July 30, 2018, to September 6, 2018, and
received zero comments. In addition,
the revision meets the substantive SIP
requirements of the CAA, including
section 110 and implementing
regulations.
V. Incorporation by Reference
In this document, the EPA is
finalizing regulatory text that includes
incorporation by reference. In
accordance with requirements of 1 CFR
51.5, the EPA is finalizing the
incorporation by reference of the
Missouri Source-Specific Orders
described in the amendments to 40 CFR
part 52 set forth below. The EPA has
made, and will continue to make, these
materials generally available through
www.regulations.gov and at the EPA
Region 7 Office (please contact the
person identified in the FOR FURTHER
INFORMATION CONTACT section of this
preamble for more information).
Therefore, these materials have been
approved by the EPA for inclusion in
the State implementation plan, have
been incorporated by reference by EPA
into that plan, are fully federally
enforceable under sections 110 and 113
of the CAA as of the effective date of the
final rulemaking of the EPA’s approval,
and will be incorporated by reference in
the next update to the SIP compilation.1
Also, in this document, as described
in the amendments to 40 CFR part 52 set
forth below, the EPA is removing
provisions of the EPA-Approved
Missouri Source-Specific Permits and
Orders from the Missouri State
Implementation Plan, which is
incorporated by reference in accordance
with the requirements of 1 CFR part 51.
VI. Statutory and Executive Order
Reviews
Under the CAA, the Administrator is
required to approve a SIP submission

FR 27968 (May 22, 1997).
23AUR1
44234
Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 164 / Friday, August 23, 2019 / Rules and Regulations
that complies with the provisions of the
Act 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).
In addition, the SIP is not approved
to apply on any Indian reservation land
or in any other area where the 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).
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 804,
however, exempts from section 801 the
following types of rules: rules of
particular applicability; rules relating to
agency management or personnel; and
rules of agency organization, procedure,
or practice that do not substantially
affect the rights or obligations of nonagency parties. 5 U.S.C. 804(3). Because
this is a rule of particular applicability,
EPA is not required to submit a rule
report regarding this action under
section 801.
Under section 307(b)(1) of the CAA,
petitions for judicial review of this
action must be filed in the United States
Court of Appeals for the appropriate
circuit by October 22, 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
enforce its requirements. (See section
307(b)(2)).

I. Background
The background for this action is
discussed in detail in our May 31, 2019
proposal (84 FR 25218). In that
document we proposed to approve SIP
revisions submitted by Arkansas on
October 24, 2002, July 26, 2010,
November 6, 2012, and March 24, 2017.
The revisions addressed in that action
include administrative revisions,
revisions that make the Arkansas SIP
current with Federal rules, and
revisions that add permit flexibility
provisions to the NSR program.1 Also,
included in that action was the
proposed approval of revisions to the
Arkansas SIP that address EPA’s
previous 2016 disapproval related to
biomass deferral language. We did not
receive any relevant comments
regarding our proposal.
II. Final Action
We are approving portions of the
revisions to the Arkansas SIP submitted
on October 24, 2002, July 26, 2010,
November 6, 2012, and March 24, 2017.
Specifically, we are approving the
following revisions:
• Revisions to Regulation 19, Chapter
4 adopted on December 5, 2008
(effective January 25, 2009), June 22,
2012 (effective July 9, 2012), October 26,
2012 (effective November 18, 2012), and
February 26, 2016 (effective March 14,
2016);
• Revisions to Regulation 19, Chapter
7 adopted on February 26, 2016
(effective March 14, 2016);
• Revisions to Regulation 19, Chapter
9 adopted on February 26, 2016
(effective March 14, 2016);
• Revisions to Regulation 19, Chapter
11 adopted on February 26, 2016
(effective March 14, 2016);
• Revisions to Regulation 19,
Appendix A adopted on December 5,
2008 (effective January 25, 2009), June
1 The permit flexibility provisions are found in
Reg. 19.414, 415, and 416. Reg. 19.414—Operational
Flexibility-Applicant’s Duty to Apply for
Alternative Scenarios, allows permittees to
implement alternative scenarios that were initially
included in their permit application, without a
permit revision or notification to the Department.
Reg. 19.415—Changes Resulting in No Emissions
Increases, allows permittees to make certain
changes within the facility that otherwise
contravene permit terms without a permit revision
if the changes are not modifications under Title I,
do not exceed emissions allowed under the permit,
do not violate applicable requirements, and do not
contravene federally enforceable permit terms and
conditions that are monitoring, recordkeeping,
reporting, or compliance certification requirements.
Reg. 19.416—Permit Flexibility, codifies ADEQ’s
discretion to grant extensions to testing, compliance
or other dates in a permit; to grant a request to
allow temporary emissions and/or testing that
would otherwise exceed a limit in a facility’s
permit; and to allow an alternative to monitoring
specified in a facility’s operating permit.

• Non-substantive revisions
throughout the current SIP-approved
portions of Regulation 19 and 26 that
replace ‘‘Section’’ with ‘‘Reg.’’ within
section headings (e.g., ‘‘Section 26.101’’
revised to ‘‘Reg. 26.101’’) that were
adopted on December 5, 2008 (effective
January 25, 2009).
This action is being taken under
section 110 of the Act. EPA is not taking
any action on the portions of the July
26, 2010 and November 6, 2012 SIP
revision submittals that were listed in
the letter from Arkansas dated March
28, 2019, that requested the withdrawal
of those revisions from EPA’s
consideration for approval into the
Arkansas SIP.
III. Incorporation by Reference
In this rule, the EPA is finalizing
regulatory text that includes
incorporation by reference. In
accordance with requirements of 1 CFR
51.5, the EPA is finalizing the
incorporation by reference the revisions
to the Arkansas regulations as described
in the Final Action section above. The
EPA has made, and will continue to
make, these materials generally
available through www.regulations.gov
and at the EPA Region 6 Office (please

The EPA also proposed to approve an amendment to the AOC. The EPA
solicited comments on the proposed revision to Missouri's SIP, and did
not receive any comments.
II. What is being addressed in this document?
The EPA is approving a SIP revision submitted by the State of
Missouri on November 2, 2018. The revision consists of an AOC between
the MoDNR and KCPL that limits emissions of SO2 from KCPL's
Lake Road Generating facility in St. Joseph, Missouri, and an Amendment

revision meets the substantive SIP requirements of the CAA, including
section 110 and implementing regulations.
IV. What action is the EPA taking?
We are taking final action to replace the May 25, 2001, St. Joseph
Light and Power Consent Decree with the 2015 AOC and 2018 Amendment
between MoDNR and KCPL.
V. Incorporation by Reference
In this document, the EPA is finalizing regulatory text that
includes incorporation by reference. In accordance with requirements of
1 CFR 51.5, the EPA is finalizing the incorporation by reference of the
Missouri Source-Specific Orders described in the amendments to 40 CFR

Therefore, these materials have been approved by the EPA for
inclusion in the State implementation plan, have been incorporated by
reference by EPA into that plan, are fully federally enforceable under
sections 110 and 113 of the CAA as of the effective date of the final
rulemaking of the EPA's approval, and will be incorporated by reference
in the next update to the SIP compilation.\1\

Also, in this document, as described in the amendments to 40 CFR
part 52 set forth below, the EPA is removing provisions of the EPA-
Approved Missouri Source-Specific Permits and Orders from the Missouri
State Implementation Plan, which is incorporated by reference in
accordance with the requirements of 1 CFR part 51.
VI. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
Under the CAA, the Administrator is required to approve a SIP
submission
[[Page 44234]]
that complies with the provisions of the Act 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).
In addition, the SIP is not approved to apply on any Indian
reservation land or in any other area where the 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).
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 804, however, exempts from section 801 the
following types of rules: rules of particular applicability; rules
relating to agency management or personnel; and rules of agency
organization, procedure, or practice that do not substantially affect
the rights or obligations of non-agency parties. 5 U.S.C. 804(3).
Because this is a rule of particular applicability, EPA is not required
to submit a rule report regarding this action under section 801.
Under section 307(b)(1) of the CAA, petitions for judicial review
of this action must be filed in the United States Court of Appeals for
the appropriate circuit by October 22, 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
enforce its requirements. (See section 307(b)(2)).
