J. Executive Order 12898: Federal
Actions To Address Environmental
Justice in Minority Populations and
Low-Income Populations
The EPA believes that this action is
not subject to Executive Order 12898 (59
FR 7629, February 16, 1994) because it
does not establish an environmental
health or safety standard. The facility
has already permanently ceased
operations and this action simply
rescinds previously promulgated
requirements applicable to this
shuttered facility. Therefore, the EPA
considers this action to have no impacts
to human health and the environment,
and to have no potential
disproportionately high and adverse
effects on minority, low-income, or
indigenous populations.
K. The Congressional Review Act
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. 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).

L. Judicial Review
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 August 16, 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

This revision is consistent with an EPA
rulemaking in 2018, which exempted
this compound from the Federal
definition of VOC on the basis that the
compound makes a negligible
contribution to tropospheric ozone
formation. EPA proposed to approve
this action on February 11, 2021 and
received no adverse comments.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Throughout this document whenever

EPA.
I. Background Information
On February 11, 2021, EPA proposed
to approve a revision to the Illinois SIP
by updating the definition of volatile
organic material or volatile organic
compound at 35 IAC 211.7150 to
exclude (Z)-1,1,1,4,4,4-hexafluorobut-2ene. See 86 FR 9307. This revision is
consistent with an EPA rulemaking
exempting this compound from the
Federal definition of VOC at 40 CFR
51.100(s) due to its negligible
contribution to tropospheric ozone
formation. See 83 FR 61127 (Nov. 28,
2018). An explanation of the Clean Air
Act (CAA) requirements, a detailed
E:\FR\FM\16JNR1.SGM
16JNR1
Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 114 / Wednesday, June 16, 2021 / Rules and Regulations
analysis of the revisions, and EPA’s
reasons for proposing approval were
provided in the notice of proposed
rulemaking (NPRM) and will not be
restated here. The public comment
period for this proposed rule ended on
March 15, 2021. All the comments
received are included in the docket for
this action.
During the comment period, EPA
received one comment that requested
EPA to consider the global warming
potential of chemicals for future actions
of this type. We do not consider the
comment to be germane or relevant to
this action and therefore not adverse to
this action. The comment lacks the
required specificity to the proposed SIP
revision and the relevant requirements
of CAA section 110. Moreover, the
comment does not address a specific
regulation or provision, nor does it
suggest a change in, or recommend a
different action on, the SIP submission
from what EPA proposed. Therefore, the
comment requires no further response,
and we are finalizing our action as
proposed.
II. Final Action
EPA is approving the revision to the
Illinois SIP at 35 IAC 211.7150 by
removing 1,1,1,4,4,4-hexafluorobut-2ene from the definition of VOM and
VOC in accordance with the Illinois
submittal on October 20, 2020.

III. 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 the Illinois Regulations
described in the amendments to 40 CFR
part 52 set forth below. EPA has made,
and will continue to make, these
documents generally available through
www.regulations.gov, and at the EPA
Region 5 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
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 EPA’s approval, and will
be incorporated by reference in the next
update to the SIP compilation.1

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
PO 00000

31921
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 CAA,
petitions for judicial review of this
action must be filed in the United States
Court of Appeals for the appropriate
circuit by August 16, 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) of the CAA.)

ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
The Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) is approving a revision to
the Indiana State Implementation Plan
(SIP) submitted on July 16, 2020, by the
Indiana Department of Environmental
Management (IDEM). The revision
incorporates changes to Indiana’s
existing emission reporting rule to be
consistent with the emissions statement
requirements in the Clean Air Act
(CAA). The CAA requires stationary
sources in ozone nonattainment areas to
submit annual emissions statements.
The revision to the rule extends the
requirements in Indiana’s emission
reporting rule to Clark and Floyd
counties, which were designated
nonattainment under the 2015 ozone
National Ambient Air Quality Standard
(NAAQS) in 2018, and removes the
requirement for Lawrenceburg
Township in Dearborn County and to
LaPorte County, because these areas are
currently designated attainment for the
1997, 2008 and 2015 ozone standards.
DATES: This final rule is effective on July
16, 2021.

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 March 15, 2021. We received
three comments during the comment
period. The full comments are in the
rulemaking docket, see Addresses for
details on accessing the docket.
Two of the comments received were
supportive of EPA’s action. Comments
from a third individual expressed
several issues of concern not addressed
in EPA’s proposed rulemaking. Those
comments are summarized and
addressed below.
Comment: The commenter asserted
that the decision to remove reporting
requirements for Lawrenceburg
Township and LaPorte County could
have permanent impacts on Indiana’s
citizens. IDEM should reconsider
removing the two areas from attainment.
Response: Because Lawrenceburg
Township and LaPorte County have
demonstrated attainment with the ozone
NAAQS, EPA designated them as
attainment areas under Section 107(d) of
the CAA on June 4, 2018 (83 FR 25776).
Consequently, section 182(a)(3)(B) of the
CAA authorizes IDEM to remove the
emissions reporting requirements for
those two areas. The commenter’s
suggestion that IDEM should remove the
ozone attainment designation status for

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Throughout this document whenever ``we,''

I. Background Information
On February 11, 2021, EPA proposed to approve a revision to the
Illinois SIP by updating the definition of volatile organic material or
volatile organic compound at 35 IAC 211.7150 to exclude (Z)-
1,1,1,4,4,4-hexafluorobut-2-ene. See 86 FR 9307. This revision is
consistent with an EPA rulemaking exempting this compound from the
Federal definition of VOC at 40 CFR 51.100(s) due to its negligible
contribution to tropospheric ozone formation. See 83 FR 61127 (Nov. 28,
2018). An explanation of the Clean Air Act (CAA) requirements, a
detailed
[[Page 31921]]
analysis of the revisions, and EPA's reasons for proposing approval
were provided in the notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) and will not
be restated here. The public comment period for this proposed rule
ended on March 15, 2021. All the comments received are included in the
docket for this action.
During the comment period, EPA received one comment that requested
EPA to consider the global warming potential of chemicals for future
actions of this type. We do not consider the comment to be germane or
relevant to this action and therefore not adverse to this action. The
comment lacks the required specificity to the proposed SIP revision and
the relevant requirements of CAA section 110. Moreover, the comment
does not address a specific regulation or provision, nor does it
suggest a change in, or recommend a different action on, the SIP
submission from what EPA proposed. Therefore, the comment requires no
further response, and we are finalizing our action as proposed.
II. Final Action
EPA is approving the revision to the Illinois SIP at 35 IAC
211.7150 by removing 1,1,1,4,4,4-hexafluorobut-2-ene from the
definition of VOM and VOC in accordance with the Illinois submittal on
October 20, 2020.
III. 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 the Illinois
Regulations described in the amendments to 40 CFR part 52 set forth
below. EPA has made, and will continue to make, these documents
generally available through www.regulations.gov, and at the EPA Region
5 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 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
EPA's approval, and will be incorporated by reference in the next
update to the SIP compilation.\1\

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 CAA, petitions for judicial review
of this action must be filed in the United States Court of Appeals for
the appropriate circuit by August 16, 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) of the CAA.)
