Rehabilitation Short-Term Training-CAP .............................................................................................................
Any activities carried out during the
year of this continuation award must be
consistent with the scope, goals, and
objectives of the grantee’s application as
approved in the FY 2015 competition.
The requirements for continuation
awards are set forth in 34 CFR 75.253.
Waiver of Delayed Effective Date:
The Administrative Procedure Act
requires that a substantive rule must be
published at least 30 days before its
effective date, except as otherwise
provided for good cause (5 U.S.C.
553(d)(3)). A delayed effective date
would be contrary to public interest by
creating a gap in provision of training
and technical assistance that CAP
professionals need to effectively fulfill
their responsibilities under the
Rehabilitation Act. Therefore, the
Secretary waives the delayed effective
date provision for good cause.
Regulatory Flexibility Act
Certification:
The Department certifies that the
waiver and extension of the project
period will not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial
number of small entities. The only
entity that will be affected by the waiver
and extension of the project period is
the current Rehabilitation Short-Term
Training-CAP grantee, because it would
receive funding for an additional project
period. Additionally, the extension of
an existing budget period imposes
minimal compliance costs, and the
activities required to support the
additional year of funding will not
impose additional regulatory burdens or
require unnecessary Federal
supervision.
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995:
This final waiver and extension of the
project period does not contain any
information collection requirements.
Intergovernmental Review:
This program is subject to Executive
Order 12372 and the regulations in 34
CFR part 79. One of the objectives of the
Executive order is to foster an
intergovernmental partnership and a
strengthened federalism. The Executive
order relies on processes developed by
State and local governments for
coordination and review of proposed
Federal financial assistance. This
document provides early notification of
our specific plans and actions for this
program.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
Through a letter dated October 18,
2019,1 GA EPD submitted a SIP revision
for EPA’s approval. The revision makes
clarifying and ministerial changes to
permitting regulations at Rule 391–3–1–
.03(8), Permit Requirements. This
submittal changes the status of five
counties under paragraph (e), which
specifies counties that are contributing
to the ambient air levels of the current
nonattainment area for the 2015 8-hour
ozone National Ambient Air Quality
Standard (NAAQS) 2 and makes other
minor typographical edits to other
subparagraphs for consistent formatting.
In a notice of proposed rulemaking
(NPRM) published on May 22, 2020 (85
1 EPA notes the Agency received the submittal on
October 24, 2019.
2 The Atlanta nonattainment area for the 2015 8hour ozone NAAQS consists of the following
counties: Bartow, Clayton, Cobb, DeKalb, Fulton,
Gwinnett, and Henry.

Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 180 / Wednesday, September 16, 2020 / Rules and Regulations
FR 31116), EPA proposed to approve
revisions to Georgia Rule 391–3–1.03(8), to list Barrow, Carroll, Hall,
Spalding, and Walton Counties among
those determined by the GA EPD
Director to contribute to the ambient air
level of ozone in a revised list of
metropolitan Atlanta counties. EPA
does not believe that the corresponding
change to subparagraph (e)1. proposed
in the NPRM will substantively impact
implementation of Georgia’s
nonattainment new source review
program. EPA provided further analysis
of these changes, as well as the Agency’s
rationale for approving the changes, in
its May 22, 2020, NPRM. Comments on
the May 22, 2020, NPRM were due on
or before June 22, 2020. EPA received
no comments on the proposed action.
EPA is now taking final action to
approve the above-referenced revision.

II. Incorporation by Reference
In this rule, EPA is finalizing
regulatory text that includes
incorporation by reference. In
accordance with requirements of 1 CFR
51.5, EPA is finalizing the incorporation
by reference of Georgia Rule 391–3–1.03(8), titled ‘‘Permit Requirements,’’
effective September 26, 2019, which
incorporates minor revisions to the
State’s permitting requirements. EPA
has made, and will continue to make,
these materials generally available
through www.regulations.gov and at the
EPA Region 4 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 EPA for inclusion in the
SIP, 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 EPA’s approval, and will be
incorporated by reference by the
Director of the Federal Register in the
next update to the SIP compilation.3
III. Final Action
EPA is approving the Georgia SIP
revision to Rule 391–3–1-.03(8) titled
‘‘Permit Requirements,’’ submitted on
October 18, 2019. This revision updates
the status of five counties that are
designated as attainment for the 2015 8hour ozone NAAQS, but which the
Director has determined to impact
ambient ozone concentrations in the
metropolitan Atlanta area. These
counties therefore must comply with
certain additional permitting
requirements under Rule 391–3–13 See
62 FR 27968 (May 22, 1997).

.03(8), subparagraph (8)(c)15. In
addition, the October 18, 2019,
submittal makes typographical edits to
Rule 391–3–1.03(8). EPA has concluded
that the SIP revision is consistent with
the CAA and applicable regulations.
IV. Statutory and Executive Order
Reviews
Under the CAA, the Administrator is
required to approve a SIP submission
that complies with the provisions of the
Act and applicable Federal regulations.
See 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. 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
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
PO 00000
Frm 00031
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
57695
methods, under Executive Order 12898
(59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).
The SIP subject to this action 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 as specified by Executive
Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9,
2000), nor will it impose substantial
direct costs on tribal governments or
preempt tribal law.
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 CAA,
petitions for judicial review of this
action must be filed in the United States
Court of Appeals for the appropriate
circuit by November 16, 2020. 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).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
Through a letter dated October 18, 2019,\1\ GA EPD submitted a SIP
revision for EPA's approval. The revision makes clarifying and
ministerial changes to permitting regulations at Rule 391-3-1-.03(8),
Permit Requirements. This submittal changes the status of five counties
under paragraph (e), which specifies counties that are contributing to
the ambient air levels of the current nonattainment area for the 2015
8-hour ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) \2\ and
makes other minor typographical edits to other subparagraphs for
consistent formatting.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ EPA notes the Agency received the submittal on October 24,
2019.
\2\ The Atlanta nonattainment area for the 2015 8-hour ozone
NAAQS consists of the following counties: Bartow, Clayton, Cobb,
DeKalb, Fulton, Gwinnett, and Henry.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
In a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) published on May 22, 2020
(85
[[Page 57695]]
FR 31116), EPA proposed to approve revisions to Georgia Rule 391-3-
1-.03(8), to list Barrow, Carroll, Hall, Spalding, and Walton Counties
among those determined by the GA EPD Director to contribute to the
ambient air level of ozone in a revised list of metropolitan Atlanta
counties. EPA does not believe that the corresponding change to
subparagraph (e)1. proposed in the NPRM will substantively impact
implementation of Georgia's nonattainment new source review program.
EPA provided further analysis of these changes, as well as the Agency's
rationale for approving the changes, in its May 22, 2020, NPRM.
Comments on the May 22, 2020, NPRM were due on or before June 22, 2020.
EPA received no comments on the proposed action. EPA is now taking
final action to approve the above-referenced revision.
II. Incorporation by Reference
In this rule, EPA is finalizing regulatory text that includes
incorporation by reference. In accordance with requirements of 1 CFR
51.5, EPA is finalizing the incorporation by reference of Georgia Rule
391-3-1-.03(8), titled ``Permit Requirements,'' effective September 26,
2019, which incorporates minor revisions to the State's permitting
requirements. EPA has made, and will continue to make, these materials
generally available through www.regulations.gov and at the EPA Region 4
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 EPA for inclusion in
the SIP, 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 EPA's approval, and will
be incorporated by reference by the Director of the Federal Register in
the next update to the SIP compilation.\3\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\3\ See 62 FR 27968 (May 22, 1997).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
III. Final Action
EPA is approving the Georgia SIP revision to Rule 391-3-1-.03(8)
titled ``Permit Requirements,'' submitted on October 18, 2019. This
revision updates the status of five counties that are designated as
attainment for the 2015 8-hour ozone NAAQS, but which the Director has
determined to impact ambient ozone concentrations in the metropolitan
Atlanta area. These counties therefore must comply with certain
additional permitting requirements under Rule 391-3-1-.03(8),
subparagraph (8)(c)15. In addition, the October 18, 2019, submittal
makes typographical edits to Rule 391-3-1.03(8). EPA has concluded that
the SIP revision is consistent with the CAA and applicable regulations.
IV. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
Under the CAA, the Administrator is required to approve a SIP
submission that complies with the provisions of the Act and applicable
Federal regulations. See 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. 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,

The SIP subject to this action 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 as specified
by Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000), nor will it
impose substantial direct costs on tribal governments or preempt tribal
law.
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 CAA, petitions for judicial review
of this action must be filed in the United States Court of Appeals for
the appropriate circuit by November 16, 2020. 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).
