SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Throughout this document whenever
‘‘we,’’ ‘‘us,’’ or ‘‘our’’ is used, we mean
EPA.
I. What is being addressed in this
document?
This rule approves Ohio’s July 24,
2020 submission to address the ozonerelated emissions inventory
requirements and emissions statement
requirements for the Cleveland and
Cincinnati ozone nonattainment areas
for the 2015 ozone NAAQS. An
explanation of the CAA requirements, a
detailed analysis of the revisions, and
EPA’s reasons for proposing approval
were provided in EPA’s notice of
proposed rulemaking (NPRM), dated
November 5, 2020 (85 FR 70554), and
will not be restated here.
II. What comments did we receive on
the proposed rule?
In the NPRM, EPA provided a 30-day
review and comment period for the
proposed rule. The comment period
ended on December 7, 2020. We
received no comments on the proposed
rule.
jbell on DSKJLSW7X2PROD with RULES
III. What action is EPA taking?
EPA is approving Ohio’s July 24, 2020
SIP revision as addressing the ozonerelated emission inventory requirements
for the Cleveland and Cincinnati ozone
nonattainment areas for the 2015 ozone
NAAQS. We are approving the emission
inventories for these areas because they
contain comprehensive, accurate, and
current inventories of actual emissions
of oxides of nitrogen (NOX) and volatile
organic compounds (VOC) for all
relevant sources in accordance with
CAA sections 172(c)(3) and 182(a). We
are also approving Ohio’s certification
that the state has an acceptable and
enforceable stationary annual emission
statement rule in its SIP for NOX and
VOC stationary sources in the Cleveland
and Cincinnati ozone nonattainment
areas for the 2015 ozone NAAQS, in
accordance with the CAA section
182(a)(3)(B).
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
VerDate Sep<11>2014
16:13 Mar 02, 2021
Jkt 253001
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);
• 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
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).

Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Regulatory determinations.
The U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA or Agency) is
announcing final regulatory
determinations for eight of the 109
contaminants listed on the Fourth
Contaminant Candidate List.
Specifically, the Agency is making final
determinations to regulate
perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS)
and perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and
to not regulate 1,1-dichloroethane,
acetochlor, methyl bromide
(bromomethane), metolachlor,
nitrobenzene, and RDX. The Safe
Drinking Water Act (SDWA), as
amended in 1996, requires EPA to make
regulatory determinations every five
years on at least five unregulated
contaminants. A regulatory
determination is a decision about
whether or not to begin the process to
propose and promulgate a national
primary drinking water regulation for an
unregulated contaminant.

Air Plan Approval; Ohio; Base Year Emission Inventories and
Emissions Statement Rule Certification for the 2015 Ozone Standard
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is approving, under
the Clean Air Act (CAA), a revision to the State Implementation Plan
(SIP) submitted by the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency on July 24,
2020. The CAA establishes emission inventory requirements for all ozone
nonattainment areas. The revision addresses the emission inventory
requirements for the Cleveland, Ohio (OH) ozone nonattainment area and
the Ohio portion of the Cincinnati, Ohio-Kentucky (Cincinnati) ozone
nonattainment area, as designated under the 2015 ozone National Ambient
Air Quality Standard (NAAQS or standard). EPA is also confirming that
Ohio's stationary annual emissions statement regulation, which has been
previously approved by EPA under a prior ozone standard, satisfies the
CAA emissions statement rule requirement for the Cleveland and
Cincinnati nonattainment areas under the 2015 ozone NAAQS.
DATES: This final rule is effective on April 2, 2021.
ADDRESSES: EPA has established a docket for this action under Docket ID
No. EPA-R05-OAR-2020-0388. All documents in the docket are listed on

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Throughout this document whenever ``we,''
``us,'' or ``our'' is used, we mean EPA.
I. What is being addressed in this document?
This rule approves Ohio's July 24, 2020 submission to address the
ozone-related emissions inventory requirements and emissions statement
requirements for the Cleveland and Cincinnati ozone nonattainment areas
for the 2015 ozone NAAQS. An explanation of the CAA requirements, a
detailed analysis of the revisions, and EPA's reasons for proposing
approval were provided in EPA's notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM),
dated November 5, 2020 (85 FR 70554), and will not be restated here.
II. What comments did we receive on the proposed rule?
In the NPRM, EPA provided a 30-day review and comment period for
the proposed rule. The comment period ended on December 7, 2020. We
received no comments on the proposed rule.
III. What action is EPA taking?
EPA is approving Ohio's July 24, 2020 SIP revision as addressing
the ozone-related emission inventory requirements for the Cleveland and
Cincinnati ozone nonattainment areas for the 2015 ozone NAAQS. We are
approving the emission inventories for these areas because they contain
comprehensive, accurate, and current inventories of actual emissions of
oxides of nitrogen (NOX) and volatile organic compounds
(VOC) for all relevant sources in accordance with CAA sections
172(c)(3) and 182(a). We are also approving Ohio's certification that
the state has an acceptable and enforceable stationary annual emission
statement rule in its SIP for NOX and VOC stationary sources
in the Cleveland and Cincinnati ozone nonattainment areas for the 2015
ozone NAAQS, in accordance with the CAA section 182(a)(3)(B).
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 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);
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 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 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 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 May 3, 2021. 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).)
