of this ICR to 4146, primarily as a result
of consolidating this ICR with ICR
2060–0706. No Subpart B facilities were
reporting at the time of the last renewal
in 2018, however, the Agency identified
two respondents that are likely to
submit annual reports in 2021, and two
responses were added to the ICR, adding
460 hours of labor and $10,600 of nonlabor cost to the burden that was
approved in 2019. For Subparts K, R,
and W, there were no changes to the
number of respondents, the annual time
burden, or the annual non-labor cost
compared to the most recent renewals of
these ICRs.1 The requested burden
reflects the sum of the two ICRs that are
being consolidated.

Adequacy Status of Motor Vehicle
Emissions Budgets in Submitted 8Hour Ozone Attainment Plan for San
Diego; California
Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Notice of adequacy.
AGENCY:
The Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA or ‘‘Agency’’) is notifying
the public that the Agency has found
motor vehicle emissions budgets
(‘‘budgets’’) adequate in a California
state implementation plan (SIP)
submittal for San Diego County.
Specifically, our finding relates to
budgets in the area’s ‘‘2020 Plan for
Attaining the National Ambient Air
Quality Standards for Ozone in San
Diego County (October 2020)’’ (‘‘2020
San Diego Ozone Plan’’ or ‘‘plan’’). We
find that these budgets are adequate for
transportation conformity purposes for
the 2008 and 2015 ozone national
ambient air quality standards (NAAQS).
Upon the effective date of this notice of
adequacy, prior budgets for the 2008
ozone NAAQS previously found
adequate by the EPA will no longer be
applicable for transportation conformity
purposes, and the San Diego
Association of Governments (SANDAG)
and the U.S. Department of
Transportation must use these adequate
budgets in future transportation
conformity determinations.
SUMMARY:
1 For the most recent renewal of ICR 2060–0706,
see 86 FR 1965, January 11, 2021.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Throughout this document, whenever
‘‘we,’’ ‘‘us,’’ or ‘‘our’’ is used, we mean
the EPA.
Today’s notice is simply an
announcement of a finding that we have
already made. The California Air
Resources Board (CARB) submitted the
plan to the EPA on January 12, 2021, as
a revision to the California SIP. The
plan contains budgets for both the 2008
and the 2015 ozone NAAQS. These
budgets are used for the 2008 ozone
NAAQS reasonable further progress
(RFP) milestone years 2020 and 2023
and for the attainment year 2026. For
the 2015 ozone NAAQS, these budgets
are used for RFP milestone years 2023,
2026, and 2029, and for the attainment
year 2032.
The EPA sent a letter to CARB dated
September 21, 2021 stating that the
motor vehicle emissions budgets in the
submitted 2020 San Diego Ozone Plan
are adequate for transportation
conformity purposes.1 The finding is
available at the EPA’s conformity
website.2 We announced availability of
the plan and related budgets on the
EPA’s transportation conformity website
on June 4, 2021, requesting comments
by July 6, 2021. We received no
comments in response to the adequacy
review posting. The adequate budgets
are provided in the following tables:

Transportation conformity is required
by Clean Air Act section 176(c). The
EPA’s conformity rule requires that
transportation plans, transportation
improvement programs, and
transportation projects conform to a
state’s air quality SIP and establishes the
criteria and procedures for determining
whether or not they conform.
Conformity to a SIP means that
transportation activities will not
produce new air quality violations,
worsen existing violations, or delay
timely attainment of the NAAQS.
The criteria we use to determine
whether a SIP’s motor vehicle emissions
budgets are adequate for conformity
purposes are outlined in 40 CFR
93.118(e)(4), promulgated on August 15,
1997.3 We have further described our
process for determining the adequacy of
submitted SIP budgets in our final rule
dated July 1, 2004, and we used the
information in these resources in
making our adequacy determination.4
Please note that an adequacy review is
separate from the EPA’s completeness
review and should not be used to
prejudge the EPA’s ultimate action on
the SIP submittal. Even if we find a
budget adequate, the SIP submittal
SAN DIEGO COUNTY MOTOR VEHICLE could later be disapproved.

Adequacy Status of Motor Vehicle Emissions Budgets in Submitted
