Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 56 / Thursday, March 25, 2021 / Proposed Rules will not interefere with Maine’s ability to continue attaining the Pb NAAQS. VI. Proposed Action EPA is proposing to approve Maine’s revision to its SIP and corresponding noninterference determination, submitted on August 20, 2020, in support of Maine’s separate petition to opt-out of the federal RFG requirements for in York, Cumberland, Kennebec, Androscoggin, Knox, Lincoln, and Sagadahoc counties. Specifically, EPA proposes to find that this change in removing reliance on the federal RFG requirements for the southern Maine counties will not interfere with attainment or maintenance of the NAAQS or with any other applicable requirement of the CAA. Maine’s August 20, 2020, SIP revision updates the Maine C.M.R. ch. 119 Motor Vehicle Fuel Volatility Limits that is approved into Maine’s SIP and adopts Maine statute at 38 M.R.S. § 585–N as amended by Public Law 2019, c. 55, § 1 to reflect Maine’s request to opt out of the federal RFG requirements. EPA is proposing to find that Maine’s August 20, 2020, SIP revision is consistent with the applicable provisions of the CAA, including section 110(l). In this action, EPA is not acting on the State’s opt-out petition to the EPA Administrator to remove the federal RFG requirement for York, Cumberland, Kennebec, Androscoggin, Knox, Lincoln, and Sagadahoc counties. Any decision by the Administrator on the opt-out petition would occur in a separate action. EPA is soliciting public comments on the issues discussed in this notice or on other relevant matters. These comments will be considered before taking final action. Interested parties may participate in the Federal rulemaking procedure by submitting written comments to this proposed rule by following the instructions listed in the ADDRESSES section of this Federal Register. VII. Incorporation by Reference In this rule, the EPA is proposing to include in a final EPA rule regulatory text that includes incorporation by reference. In accordance with requirements of 1 CFR 51.5, the EPA is proposing to incorporate by reference into Maine’s SIP Maine’s revisions to C.M.R. ch. 119 Motor Vehicle Fuel Volatility Limits that remove the State’s requirement for the sale of RFG in the southern Maine counties and concurrently adopting Maine statute at 38 M.R.S. § 585–N as amended by Public Law 2019, c. 55, § 1, which repealed the State’s requirement for the sale of RFG in the southern Maine VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:19 Mar 24, 2021 Jkt 253001 counties effective November 1, 2020, as discussed in section I. The EPA has made, and will continue to make, these documents generally available through https://www.regulations.gov and at the EPA Region 1 Office (please contact the person identified in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section of this preamble for more information). VIII. 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, EPA’s role is to approve state choices, provided that they meet the criteria of the Clean Air Act. Accordingly, this proposed 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 proposed 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 Clean Air Act; and • Does not provide EPA with the discretionary authority to address, as appropriate, disproportionate human health or environmental effects, using PO 00000 Frm 00054 Fmt 4702 Sfmt 4702 15853 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).

In support of its channel substitution request, the Licensee states that the Commission has recognized that VHF channels have certain propagation characteristics which may cause reception issues for some viewers, and that the reception of VHF signals require larger antennas relative to UHF channels. According to the Licensee, WLUK–TV has received numerous complaints from viewers unable to receive its signal and the Licensee’s channel substitution proposal will result in more effective building penetration for indoor antenna reception and greatly improve the Station’s ability to provide ATSC 3.0 service to homes, vehicles, and portable devices. The Licensee further states that it will continue to serve all of the population located within the licensed channel 12 contour and that three other FOX-affiliated stations provide a signal to portions of the licensed channel 12 facility. We believe that the Licensee’s channel substitution proposal warrants consideration. Channel 18 can be substituted for channel 12 at Green Bay, Wisconsin as proposed, in compliance with the principal community coverage requirements of the Commission’s rules at coordinates 44–24–32.0 N and 87–59– 31.0 W.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In support of its channel substitution 
request, the Licensee states that the Commission has recognized that 
VHF channels have certain propagation characteristics which may cause 
reception issues for some viewers, and that the reception of VHF 
signals require larger antennas relative to UHF channels. According to 
the Licensee, WLUK-TV has received numerous complaints from viewers 
unable to receive its signal and the Licensee's channel substitution 
proposal will result in more effective building penetration for indoor 
antenna reception and greatly improve the Station's ability to provide 
ATSC 3.0 service to homes, vehicles, and portable devices. The Licensee 
further states that it will continue to serve all of the population 
located within the licensed channel 12 contour and that three other 
FOX-affiliated stations provide a signal to portions of the licensed 
channel 12 facility. We believe that the Licensee's channel 
substitution proposal warrants consideration. Channel 18 can be 
substituted for channel 12 at Green Bay, Wisconsin as proposed, in 
compliance with the principal community coverage requirements of the 
Commission's rules at coordinates 44-24-32.0 N and 87-59-31.0 W. In
