On November 1, 2022, EPA sent West Virginia a letter acknowledging that effective April 1, 2022, West Virginia has the authority to implement and enforce the NESHAP and NSPS as specified by West Virginia in its notices to EPA, as provided for under previously approved automatic delegation mechanisms (49 FR 48692, 67 FR 15486, EPA delegation letters dated March 19, 2001 and January 8, 2002). All notifications, applications, reports, and other correspondence required pursuant to the delegated NESHAP and NSPS must be submitted to both EPA Region III and to the West Virginia Department of Environmental Protection, unless the delegated standard specifically provides that such submittals may be sent to EPA or a delegated State. In such cases, the submittals should be sent only to the West Virginia Department of Environmental Protection. A copy of EPA’s November 1, 2022 letter to West Virginia follows: ‘‘Ms. Laura M. Crowder, Director, Division of Air Quality, West Virginia Department of Environmental Protection, 601 57th Street SE, Charleston, West Virginia 25304. Via email at laura.m.crowder@wv.gov Dear Ms. Crowder: This letter acknowledges your letter dated July 1, 2022 in which the West Virginia Department of Environmental Protection (WVDEP) Division of Air Quality (DAQ) informed the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) that West Virginia had updated its incorporation by reference of federal National Emissions Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) and New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) to include many such standards as found in 40 CFR parts 60, 61, and 63 as of June 1, 2021. WVDEP DAQ noted in the letter that it understood it was automatically delegated the authority to implement these standards. WVDEP DAQ stated its intent to enforce the standards in conformance with the terms of EPA’s previous delegations of authority pursuant to the EPA final rules published at 49 FR 48692 and 67 FR 15486, and EPA delegation letters. In two rulemakings, 49 FR 48692 (December 14, 1984) and 67 FR 15486 (April 2, 2002), EPA established the basis for delegation to West Virginia of specified federal standards at 40 CFR parts 60, 61, and 63. Subsequently, in a letter dated March 19, 2001 to WVDEP Director Michael Callaghan, EPA delegated to the State of West Virginia the authority to implement and enforce various federal NESHAP found in 40 VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:30 Nov 10, 2022 Jkt 259001 CFR part 63. In another letter to Director Callaghan dated January 8, 2002, EPA delegated to the State of West Virginia the authority to implement and enforce various federal NESHAP found in 40 CFR part 61 and NSPS found in 40 CFR part 60. In those letters, EPA also established that future Part 60, Part 61, and Part 63 standards would be automatically delegated to West Virginia subject to the conditions set forth in those letters. Those rulemakings and letters continue to control the conditions of delegation of future standards and their terms should be consulted for the specific conditions that apply to each regulatory program. However, in general terms, for automatic delegation to take effect, the letters establish conditions that can be paraphrased as requiring: legal adoption of the standards; restrictions on the kinds of wording changes West Virginia may make to the federal standards when adopting them; and specific notification from West Virginia to EPA when a standard has been adopted. WVDEP DAQ provided copies of the revised West Virginia Legislative Rules which specify the NESHAP and NSPS regulations West Virginia has adopted by reference. These revised Legislative Rules are entitled 45 CSR 34— ‘‘Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants,’’ and 45 CSR 16—‘‘Standards of Performance for New Stationary Sources.’’ These revised Rules have an effective date of April 1, 2022. EPA has reviewed the Revised rules and determined that they meet the conditions for automatic delegation as established by EPA in its prior letters and rulemakings. Accordingly, EPA acknowledges that West Virginia now has the authority, as provided for under the terms of EPA’s previous delegation actions, to implement and enforce the NESHAP and NSPS standards which West Virginia adopted by reference in West Virginia’s revised Legislative Rules 45 CSR 34 and 45 CSR 16, effective on April 1, 2022. Please note that on December 19, 2008 in Sierra Club vs. EPA (551 F.3rd 1019, D.C. Circuit 2008), the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit vacated certain provisions of the General Provisions of 40 CFR part 63 relating to exemptions for startup, shutdown, and malfunction (SSM). On October 16, 2009, the Court issued the mandate vacating these SSM exemption provisions, which are found at 40 CFR part 63, 63.6(f)(1), and (h)(1). Accordingly, EPA no longer allows sources to use the SSM exemption as provided for in the vacated provisions at 40 CFR 63.6(f)(1), and (h)(1), even PO 00000 Frm 00034 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 68153 though EPA has not yet formally removed the SSM exemption provisions from the General Provisions of 40 CFR part 63. Because West Virginia incorporated 40 CFR part 63 by reference, West Virginia should also no longer allow sources to use the former SSM exemption from the General Provisions of 40 CFR part 63 due to the Court’s ruling in Sierra Club vs.EPA (551 F.3rd 1019, D.C. Circuit 2008). If you have any questions, please contact me or Ms. Arlin Galarza-Hernandez, Chief, Permits Branch, at 215–814–2041. Sincerely, Cristina Ferna´ndez, Director, Air and Radiation Division Enclosures cc: Renu Chakrabarty (via email at renu.m.chakrabarty@wv.gov) Mike Egnor (via email at michael.egnor@wv.gov) This notice acknowledges the updates of West Virginia’s delegation of authority to implement and enforce NESHAP and NSPS.
