Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 55 / Tuesday, March 22, 2022 / Proposed Rules
E. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act
The Unfunded Mandates Reform Act
of 1995 (2 U.S.C. 1531–1538) requires
Federal agencies to assess the effects of
their discretionary regulatory actions. In
particular, the Act addresses actions
that may result in the expenditure by a
State, local, or tribal government, in the
aggregate, or by the private sector of
$100,000,000 (adjusted for inflation) or
more in any one year. Though this
proposed rule would not result in such
an expenditure, we do discuss the
effects of this rule elsewhere in this
preamble.
F. Environment
We have analyzed this proposed rule
under Department of Homeland
Security Directive 023–01, Rev. 1,
associated implementing instructions,
and Environmental Planning
COMDTINST 5090.1 (series), which
guide the Coast Guard in complying
with the National Environmental Policy
Act of 1969 (42 U.S.C. 4321–4370f), and
have made a preliminary determination
that this action is one of a category of
actions that do not individually or
cumulatively have a significant effect on
the human environment. This proposed
rule involves a safety zone lasting 2.5
hours that would prohibit entry within
a relatively small portion of Sturgeon
Bay. Normally such actions are
categorically excluded from further
review under paragraph L60(a) of
Appendix A, Table 1 of DHS Instruction
Manual 023–01–001–01, Rev. 1. A
preliminary Record of Environmental
Consideration supporting this
determination is available in the docket.
For instructions on locating the docket,
see the ADDRESSES section of this
preamble. We seek any comments or
information that may lead to the
discovery of a significant environmental
impact from this proposed rule.

lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with PROPOSALS1
I. Background
Section 110 of the Clean Air Act
specifies the general requirements for
states to submit SIPs to attain and
maintain the NAAQS and the EPA’s
actions on such submissions. To
efficiently adopt and implement the
NAAQS and related requirements, Idaho
incorporates certain Federal regulations
by reference into the Idaho air rules
(IDAPA 58.01.01) at IDAPA
58.01.01.107.03 Incorporation by
Reference. Idaho then submits some of
those provisions to the EPA for approval
and codification into the Code of
Federal Regulations (CFR) at 40 CFR
part 52, subpart N (Idaho SIP). When
Federal regulations are revised, Idaho
updates the date by which the
regulations are incorporated by
reference and submits the updates to the
EPA for approval.
II. Evaluation
The current Idaho SIP incorporates
the following regulations by reference,
VerDate Sep<11>2014
16:35 Mar 21, 2022
Jkt 256001
as of July 1, 2019, at IDAPA
58.01.01.107.03, paragraphs a through e:
• National Primary and Secondary
Ambient Air Quality Standards, 40 CFR
part 50;
• Requirements for Preparation,
Adoption, and Submittal of
Implementation Plans, 40 CFR part 51,
with the exception of certain visibilityrelated provisions;
• Approval and Promulgation of
Implementation Plans, 40 CFR part 52,
subparts A and N, and appendices D
and E;
• Ambient Air Monitoring Reference
and Equivalent Methods, 40 CFR part
53; and
• Ambient Air Quality Surveillance,
40 CFR part 58.
On October 12, 2021, Idaho submitted
updates to the SIP to incorporate these
regulations by reference as of July 1,
2020. Between July 1, 2019 and July 1,
2020, most of these incorporated
Federal regulations did not change.
However, the EPA did revise 40 CFR
part 52 subpart N to approve three Idaho
SIP revisions. See 84 FR 45918,
September 3, 2019; 84 FR 67189,
December 9, 2019; and 85 FR 9664,
February 20, 2020. In addition, the EPA
revised 40 CFR part 58 to delay the
implement of revised photochemical
assessment monitoring systems. See 85
FR 834, January 8, 2020.
After reviewing the submitted
updates, we have made the preliminary
determination that the updates are
consistent with Clean Air Act
requirements.
The EPA proposes to approve and
incorporate by reference the updates to
the Idaho SIP submitted on October 12,
2021. Upon final approval, the Idaho
SIP will include IDAPA
58.01.01.107.03, paragraphs a through e,
State effective June 17, 2021, which, as
discussed in section II of this preamble,
incorporate by reference the specified
Federal regulations as of July 1, 2020.
IV. Incorporation by Reference
In this document, the EPA is
proposing to include in a final 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 the provisions
described in section III of this preamble.
The EPA has made, and will continue
to make, these documents generally
available through https://
www.regulations.gov and at the EPA

V. 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 Clean Air Act and
applicable Federal regulations. 42
U.S.C. 7410(k); 40 CFR 52.02(a). Thus,
in reviewing SIP submissions, the 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 the requirements would
be inconsistent with the Clean Air Act;
and
• Does not provide the 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, this proposed rulemaking
would not apply on any Indian
reservation land or in any other area in
E:\FR\FM\22MRP1.SGM
22MRP1
Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 55 / Tuesday, March 22, 2022 / Proposed Rules
Idaho where the EPA or an Indian tribe
has demonstrated that a tribe has
jurisdiction. In those areas of Indian
country, the proposed rule would not
have tribal implications as specified by
Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249,
November 9, 2000).

disproportionately high and adverse
human health impacts or environmental
effects from exposure to the pesticides
discussed in this document, compared
to the general population.
II. What action is the Agency taking?
EPA is announcing receipt of
pesticide petitions filed under section
408 of the Federal Food, Drug, and
Cosmetic Act (FFDCA), 21 U.S.C. 346a,
requesting the establishment or
modification of regulations in 40 CFR
part 174 or 180 for residues of pesticide
chemicals in or on various food
commodities. The Agency is taking
public comment on the requests before
responding to the petitioners. EPA is not
proposing any particular action at this
time. EPA has determined that the
pesticide petitions described in this
document contain data or information
prescribed in FFDCA section 408(d)(2),
21 U.S.C. 346a(d)(2); however, EPA has
not fully evaluated the sufficiency of the
submitted data at this time or whether
the data supports granting of the
pesticide petitions. After considering
the public comments, EPA intends to
evaluate whether and what action may
be warranted. Additional data may be
needed before EPA can make a final
determination on these pesticide
petitions.
Pursuant to 40 CFR 180.7(f),
summaries of the petitions that are the
subject of this document, prepared by
the petitioners, are included in dockets
EPA has created for these rulemakings.
The dockets for these petitions are
available at https://
www.regulations.gov.
As specified in FFDCA section
408(d)(3), 21 U.S.C. 346a(d)(3), EPA is
publishing notice of the petitions so that
the public has an opportunity to
comment on these requests for the
establishment or modification of
regulations for residues of pesticides in
or on food commodities. Further

V. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
I. Background
Section 110 of the Clean Air Act specifies the general requirements
for states to submit SIPs to attain and maintain the NAAQS and the
EPA's actions on such submissions. To efficiently adopt and implement
the NAAQS and related requirements, Idaho incorporates certain Federal
regulations by reference into the Idaho air rules (IDAPA 58.01.01) at
IDAPA 58.01.01.107.03 Incorporation by Reference. Idaho then submits
some of those provisions to the EPA for approval and codification into
the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) at 40 CFR part 52, subpart N
(Idaho SIP). When Federal regulations are revised, Idaho updates the
date by which the regulations are incorporated by reference and submits
the updates to the EPA for approval.
II. Evaluation
The current Idaho SIP incorporates the following regulations by
reference, as of July 1, 2019, at IDAPA 58.01.01.107.03, paragraphs a
through e:
National Primary and Secondary Ambient Air Quality
Standards, 40 CFR part 50;
Requirements for Preparation, Adoption, and Submittal of
Implementation Plans, 40 CFR part 51, with the exception of certain
visibility-related provisions;
Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans, 40 CFR
part 52, subparts A and N, and appendices D and E;
Ambient Air Monitoring Reference and Equivalent Methods,
40 CFR part 53; and
Ambient Air Quality Surveillance, 40 CFR part 58.
On October 12, 2021, Idaho submitted updates to the SIP to
incorporate these regulations by reference as of July 1, 2020. Between
July 1, 2019 and July 1, 2020, most of these incorporated Federal
regulations did not change. However, the EPA did revise 40 CFR part 52
subpart N to approve three Idaho SIP revisions. See 84 FR 45918,
September 3, 2019; 84 FR 67189, December 9, 2019; and 85 FR 9664,
February 20, 2020. In addition, the EPA revised 40 CFR part 58 to delay
the implement of revised photochemical assessment monitoring systems.
See 85 FR 834, January 8, 2020.
After reviewing the submitted updates, we have made the preliminary
determination that the updates are consistent with Clean Air Act
requirements.
III. Proposed Action
The EPA proposes to approve and incorporate by reference the
updates to the Idaho SIP submitted on October 12, 2021. Upon final
approval, the Idaho SIP will include IDAPA 58.01.01.107.03, paragraphs
a through e, State effective June 17, 2021, which, as discussed in
section II of this preamble, incorporate by reference the specified
Federal regulations as of July 1, 2020.
IV. Incorporation by Reference
In this document, the EPA is proposing to include in a final 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 the provisions described in section III of this preamble. The
EPA has made, and will continue to make, these documents generally
available through https://www.regulations.gov and at the EPA Region 10
Office (please contact the person identified in the FOR FURTHER
INFORMATION CONTACT section of this preamble for more information).
V. 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 Clean Air Act
and applicable Federal regulations. 42 U.S.C. 7410(k); 40 CFR 52.02(a).
Thus, in reviewing SIP submissions, the 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 the requirements would be inconsistent
with the Clean Air Act; and
Does not provide the 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, this proposed rulemaking would not apply on any Indian
reservation land or in any other area in
[[Page 16133]]
Idaho where the EPA or an Indian tribe has demonstrated that a tribe
has jurisdiction. In those areas of Indian country, the proposed rule
would not have tribal implications as specified by Executive Order
13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000).
