I. Background
South Dakota’s PSD preconstruction
permitting program consists of sections
74–36–09–01 through 74–36–09–03.
The State’s submittal incorporated by
reference as of October 23, 2015, the
revisions to remove the GHG Tailoring
Rule Step 2 PSD permitting
requirements in 40 CFR 52.21(b)(49)(v)
from their SIP in 74:36:09:02(7)–(9)
(removing 40 CFR 52.21(b)(49)(v) as
well as the references to 40 CFR
52.21(b)(49)(v)). These revisions were
approved in 81 FR 70626 and published
on October 13, 2016 (see docket).
In this action we are taking final
action to approve two additional
revisions contained in the State’s 2015
submittal: South Dakota’s revision to the
definition of ‘‘subject to regulation’’ in
74:36:01:01 (73) 1 and the addition of
the new provision in 74:36:09–02(10).2
In our October 13, 2016 action, we did
not act on South Dakota’s revisions in
74:36:01:01(73) and 74:36:09(02)(10) for
reasons stated in our proposed
rulemaking. Those reasons will not be
re-stated here; please refer to our
proposed rulemaking which was
published on June 27, 2019 (84 FR
30686.) We also provided a detailed
explanation of the basis for our
proposed approval in our June 27, 2019,
rulemaking. We invited comment on all
aspects of our proposal and provided a
30-day comment period. The comment
period ended on July 29, 2019.
II. Response to Comments
We received no comments during the
public comment period.

III. Final Action
For the reasons outlined in our
proposed rulemaking, the EPA is taking
final action to approve the revisions to
the definition of ‘‘subject to regulation’’
in 74:36:01:01(73) and the addition of
the new provision in 74:36:09–02(10)
that were submitted by South Dakota on
October 23, 2015. Specifically, we are
taking final action to approve:
A. Chapter 74:36:01—Definitions
Chapter 74:36:01 defines the terms
used throughout Article 74:36—Air
Pollution Control Program. South
Dakota’s October 13, 2015 submittal
revises the definition of ‘‘subject to
regulation’’ by removing its existing
reference to the definition of ‘‘subject to
regulation’’ as defined in 40 CFR 70.2
(July 1, 2012), as revised in publication
1 The State’s proposed rule changes appear in the
document titled ‘‘Appendix A, Proposed
Amendment to ARSD 74–36–Air Pollution Control
Program’’, which is in the Docket. Appendix A, p.
A–14, PDF p. 431.
2 Appendix A, p. A–175, PDF p. 330.

16:37 Sep 10, 2019
Jkt 247001
75 FR 31607 (June 3, 2010), in
accordance with EPA requirements.
This definition is being replaced with
the first paragraph of the definition of
‘‘subject to regulation’’ found in 40 CFR
52.21(b)(49), with the addition of the
phrase ‘‘Greenhouse Gases are not
subject to regulation unless a PSD
preconstruction permit is issued
regulating greenhouse gases in
accordance with chapter 74:36:09.’’
B. Chapter 74:36:09—Prevention of
Significant Deterioration (PSD)
Chapter 74:36:09 is South Dakota’s
PSD preconstruction program for major
sources located in areas of the State that
attain the Federal national ambient air
quality standards (NAAQS). South
Dakota is adding new paragraph
74:36:09:02(10), which states: ‘‘For the
purposes of this section, 40 CFR
52.21(b)(49)(iv)(b), the term ‘also will
have an emissions increase of a
regulated NSR pollutant’ means ‘also
will have a major modification of a
regulated NSR pollutant that is not
GHG.’ ’’
IV. 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 of the State
of South Dakota’s revisions to its SIP as
described in section III of this preamble.
The EPA has made, and will continue
to make, these materials generally
available through www.regulations.gov
and at the EPA Region 8 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 SIP, have been incorporated by
reference by the 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.3
V. Statutory and Executive Order
Reviews
Under the Clean Air Act, the
Administrator is required to approve a
SIP submission 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, the EPA’s role is to
approve state choices, provided that
they meet the criteria of the Clean Air

Act. 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, 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
section 12(d) of the National
Technology Transfer and Advancement
Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272 note) because
application of those requirements would
be inconsistent with the CAA; 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 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

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is taking final
action to approve State Implementation Plan (SIP) and Operating Permit
Program revisions submitted by the State of South Dakota on October 23,
2015, related to South Dakota's Air Pollution Control Program. The
October 23, 2015 submittal revises certain definitions in the
Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) permitting rules and
general definition section related to greenhouse gases (GHGs). In this
rulemaking, we are also taking final action on portions of the October
23, 2015 submittal, which were not acted on in our previous final
rulemaking published on October 13, 2016. The effect of this rulemaking
is to ensure that certain definitions in South Dakota's PSD rules are
in compliance with the Federal PSD requirements. This action is being
taken under the Clean Air Act (CAA).
DATES: This final rule is effective on October 11, 2019.
ADDRESSES: The EPA has established a docket for this action under
Docket ID No. EPA-R08-OAR-2019-0064. All documents in the docket are

I. Background
South Dakota's PSD preconstruction permitting program consists of
sections 74-36-09-01 through 74-36-09-03. The State's submittal
incorporated by reference as of October 23, 2015, the revisions to
remove the GHG Tailoring Rule Step 2 PSD permitting requirements in 40
CFR 52.21(b)(49)(v) from their SIP in 74:36:09:02(7)-(9) (removing 40
CFR 52.21(b)(49)(v) as well as the references to 40 CFR
52.21(b)(49)(v)). These revisions were approved in 81 FR 70626 and
published on October 13, 2016 (see docket).
In this action we are taking final action to approve two additional
revisions contained in the State's 2015 submittal: South Dakota's
revision to the definition of ``subject to regulation'' in 74:36:01:01
(73) \1\ and the addition of the new provision in 74:36:09-02(10).\2\
In our October 13, 2016 action, we did not act on South Dakota's
revisions in 74:36:01:01(73) and 74:36:09(02)(10) for reasons stated in
our proposed rulemaking. Those reasons will not be re-stated here;
please refer to our proposed rulemaking which was published on June 27,
2019 (84 FR 30686.) We also provided a detailed explanation of the
basis for our proposed approval in our June 27, 2019, rulemaking. We
invited comment on all aspects of our proposal and provided a 30-day
comment period. The comment period ended on July 29, 2019.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ The State's proposed rule changes appear in the document
titled ``Appendix A, Proposed Amendment to ARSD 74-36-Air Pollution
Control Program'', which is in the Docket. Appendix A, p. A-14, PDF

\2\ Appendix A, p. A-175, PDF p. 330.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
II. Response to Comments
We received no comments during the public comment period.
III. Final Action
For the reasons outlined in our proposed rulemaking, the EPA is
taking final action to approve the revisions to the definition of
``subject to regulation'' in 74:36:01:01(73) and the addition of the
new provision in 74:36:09-02(10) that were submitted by South Dakota on
October 23, 2015. Specifically, we are taking final action to approve:
A. Chapter 74:36:01--Definitions
Chapter 74:36:01 defines the terms used throughout Article 74:36--
Air Pollution Control Program. South Dakota's October 13, 2015
submittal revises the definition of ``subject to regulation'' by
removing its existing reference to the definition of ``subject to
regulation'' as defined in 40 CFR 70.2 (July 1, 2012), as revised in
publication 75 FR 31607 (June 3, 2010), in accordance with EPA
requirements. This definition is being replaced with the first
paragraph of the definition of ``subject to regulation'' found in 40
CFR 52.21(b)(49), with the addition of the phrase ``Greenhouse Gases
are not subject to regulation unless a PSD preconstruction permit is
issued regulating greenhouse gases in accordance with chapter
74:36:09.''
B. Chapter 74:36:09--Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD)
Chapter 74:36:09 is South Dakota's PSD preconstruction program for
major sources located in areas of the State that attain the Federal
national ambient air quality standards (NAAQS). South Dakota is adding
new paragraph 74:36:09:02(10), which states: ``For the purposes of this
section, 40 CFR 52.21(b)(49)(iv)(b), the term `also will have an
emissions increase of a regulated NSR pollutant' means `also will have
a major modification of a regulated NSR pollutant that is not GHG.' ''
IV. 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 of the State
of South Dakota's revisions to its SIP as described in section III of
this preamble. The EPA has made, and will continue to make, these
materials generally available through www.regulations.gov and at the
EPA Region 8 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 SIP, have been incorporated by reference by the
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.\3\

V. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
Under the Clean Air Act, the Administrator is required to approve a
SIP submission 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, the EPA's role is to approve state
choices, provided that they meet the criteria of the Clean Air Act.
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, 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 section 12(d) of the
National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272
note) because application of those requirements would be inconsistent
with the CAA; 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 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
[[Page 47889]]
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. The 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 Clean Air Act, petitions for
judicial review of this action must be filed in the United States Court
of Appeals for the appropriate circuit by November 12, 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).)
