Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
AGENCY:
The Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) is proposing to approve
revisions to the Missouri State
Implementation Plan (SIP) received on
August 4, 2022. The submission
removes a provision in the Missouri
regulation ‘‘Construction Permits By
Rule’’ that allows the burning of illegal
and waste pharmaceutical drugs in
crematories and animal incinerators. In
the previous revision, submitted to EPA
on March 7, 2019, EPA approved
selected revisions of the rule but did not
act on a portion of the revision that
included the disposal of
pharmaceuticals in crematories and
animal incinerators because it conflicted
with federal requirements on the
incineration of illegal and waste
pharmaceuticals. By removing the
conflicting language, approval of these
revisions will ensure consistency
between State and federally approved
rules. These revisions along with other
minor text changes are administrative in
nature and do not impact the stringency
of the SIP or air quality. The EPA’s
proposed approval of this rule revision
is in accordance with the requirements
of the Clean Air Act (CAA).
DATES: Comments must be received on

II. What is being addressed in this

The EPA is proposing to approve a

Missouri on August 4, 2022. Missouri
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 259001
requests the EPA to approve revisions to
10 Code of State Regulations (CSR) 10–
6.062 in the Missouri SIP. The state has
revised the rule to remove a provision
in the Missouri regulation
‘‘Construction Permits By Rule’’ that
allowed the burning of illegal and waste
pharmaceutical drugs in crematories
and animal incinerators. In the previous
revision, submitted to EPA on March 7,
2019, and in a final rulemaking, EPA
approved selected revisions of the rule
but did not act on a portion of the
revision that included the disposal of
pharmaceutical drugs because it
conflicted with federal requirements on
the incineration of illegal and waste
pharmaceuticals. By removing the
conflicting language, approval of these
revisions will ensure consistency
between State and federally approved
rules. Other revisions include correcting
typographical errors and a minor change
to correct a reference to state rule CSR
10–6.060 Construction Permits
Required. After review and analysis of
the revisions, the EPA concludes that
these changes meet the requirements of
the Clean Air Act and do not adversely
affect air quality. The full text of these
changes can be found in the State’s
submission, which is included in the
docket for this action. The EPA’s
analysis of the revisions can be found in
the technical support document (TSD),
also included in the docket.
III. Have the requirements for approval
of a SIP revision been met?
The State submission has met the
public notice requirements for SIP
submissions in accordance with 40 CFR
51.102. The submission also satisfied
the completeness criteria of 40 CFR part
51, appendix V. The State provided
public notice on this SIP revision from
12/01/2021 to 2/03/2022 and received
no comments.
In addition, as explained above and in
more detail in the technical support
document, which is part of this docket,
the revision meets the substantive SIP
requirements of the CAA, including
section 110 and implementing
regulations.
IV. What action is the EPA taking?
The EPA is proposing to amend the
Missouri SIP by approving the State’s
request to revise 10 CSR 10–6.062
‘‘Construction Permits By Rule.’’ We are
processing this as a proposed action
because we are soliciting comments on
this proposed action. Final rulemaking
will occur after consideration of any
comments.

V. Incorporation by Reference
In this document, the EPA is
proposing to include regulatory text in
an EPA final rule that includes
incorporation by reference. In
accordance with requirements of 1 CFR
51.5, the EPA is finalizing the
incorporation by reference of the
Missouri rule 10 CSR 10–6.062
discussed in section II of this preamble
and as set forth below in the proposed
amendments to 40 CFR part 52. The
EPA has made, and will continue to
make, these materials generally
available through www.regulations.gov
and at the EPA Region 7 Office (please
contact the person identified in the FOR
FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section of
this preamble for more information).
VI. 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, EPA’s
role is to approve state choices,
provided that they meet the criteria of
the Clean Air Act. 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); and
E:\FR\FM\22MYP1.SGM
22MYP1
32717
Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 98 / Monday, May 22, 2023 / Proposed Rules
• 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;
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).
Executive Order 12898 (Federal
Actions To Address Environmental
Justice in Minority Populations and
Low-Income Populations, 59 FR 7629,
Feb. 16, 1994) directs Federal agencies
to identify and address
‘‘disproportionately high and adverse
human health or environmental effects’’
of their actions on minority populations
and low-income populations to the
greatest extent practicable and
permitted by law. EPA defines
environmental justice (EJ) as ‘‘the fair
treatment and meaningful involvement
of all people regardless of race, color,
national origin, or income with respect
to the development, implementation,
and enforcement of environmental laws,
regulations, and policies.’’ EPA further
defines the term fair treatment to mean
that ‘‘no group of people should bear a
disproportionate burden of
environmental harms and risks,
including those resulting from the
negative environmental consequences of
industrial, governmental, and
commercial operations or programs and
policies.’’
Missouri did not evaluate
environmental justice considerations as
part of its SIP submittal; the CAA and
applicable implementing regulations
neither prohibit nor require such an
evaluation. EPA did not perform an EJ
analysis and did not consider EJ in this
action. Consideration of EJ is not
required as part of this action, and there
is no information in the record
inconsistent with the stated goal of E.O.
12898 of achieving environmental
justice for people of color, low-income
populations, and Indigenous peoples.
Incorporation by reference, Lead,
Nitrogen dioxide, Ozone, Particulate
matter, Reporting and recordkeeping
requirements, Sulfur oxides, Volatile

II. What is being addressed in this document?
The EPA is proposing to approve a SIP revision submitted by the
State of Missouri on August 4, 2022. Missouri requests the EPA to
approve revisions to 10 Code of State Regulations (CSR) 10-6.062 in the
Missouri SIP. The state has revised the rule to remove a provision in
the Missouri regulation ``Construction Permits By Rule'' that allowed
the burning of illegal and waste pharmaceutical drugs in crematories
and animal incinerators. In the previous revision, submitted to EPA on
March 7, 2019, and in a final rulemaking, EPA approved selected
revisions of the rule but did not act on a portion of the revision that
included the disposal of pharmaceutical drugs because it conflicted
with federal requirements on the incineration of illegal and waste
pharmaceuticals. By removing the conflicting language, approval of
these revisions will ensure consistency between State and federally
approved rules. Other revisions include correcting typographical errors
and a minor change to correct a reference to state rule CSR 10-6.060
Construction Permits Required. After review and analysis of the
revisions, the EPA concludes that these changes meet the requirements
of the Clean Air Act and do not adversely affect air quality. The full
text of these changes can be found in the State's submission, which is
included in the docket for this action. The EPA's analysis of the
revisions can be found in the technical support document (TSD), also

III. Have the requirements for approval of a SIP revision been met?
The State submission has met the public notice requirements for SIP
submissions in accordance with 40 CFR 51.102. The submission also
satisfied the completeness criteria of 40 CFR part 51, appendix V. The
State provided public notice on this SIP revision from 12/01/2021 to 2/
03/2022 and received no comments.
In addition, as explained above and in more detail in the technical
support document, which is part of this docket, the revision meets the
substantive SIP requirements of the CAA, including section 110 and
implementing regulations.
IV. What action is the EPA taking?
The EPA is proposing to amend the Missouri SIP by approving the
State's request to revise 10 CSR 10-6.062 ``Construction Permits By
Rule.'' We are processing this as a proposed action because we are
soliciting comments on this proposed action. Final rulemaking will
occur after consideration of any comments.
V. Incorporation by Reference
In this document, the EPA is proposing to include regulatory text
in an EPA final rule that includes incorporation by reference. In
accordance with requirements of 1 CFR 51.5, the EPA is finalizing the
incorporation by reference of the Missouri rule 10 CSR 10-6.062
discussed in section II of this preamble and as set forth below in the
proposed amendments to 40 CFR part 52. The EPA has made, and will
continue to make, these materials generally available through
www.regulations.gov and at the EPA Region 7 Office (please contact the
person identified in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section of
this preamble for more information).
VI. 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, EPA's role is to approve state
choices, provided that they meet the criteria of the Clean Air Act.
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); and
[[Page 32717]]
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;
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).
Executive Order 12898 (Federal Actions To Address Environmental
Justice in Minority Populations and Low-Income Populations, 59 FR 7629,
Feb. 16, 1994) directs Federal agencies to identify and address
``disproportionately high and adverse human health or environmental
effects'' of their actions on minority populations and low-income
populations to the greatest extent practicable and permitted by law.
EPA defines environmental justice (EJ) as ``the fair treatment and
meaningful involvement of all people regardless of race, color,
national origin, or income with respect to the development,
implementation, and enforcement of environmental laws, regulations, and
policies.'' EPA further defines the term fair treatment to mean that
``no group of people should bear a disproportionate burden of
environmental harms and risks, including those resulting from the
negative environmental consequences of industrial, governmental, and
commercial operations or programs and policies.''
Missouri did not evaluate environmental justice considerations as
part of its SIP submittal; the CAA and applicable implementing
regulations neither prohibit nor require such an evaluation. EPA did
not perform an EJ analysis and did not consider EJ in this action.
Consideration of EJ is not required as part of this action, and there
is no information in the record inconsistent with the stated goal of
E.O. 12898 of achieving environmental justice for people of color, low-
income populations, and Indigenous peoples.
