SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section
105 of the Clean Air Act (CAA) provides
grant funding for the continuing air
programs of eligible State, local, and
Tribal agencies. In accordance with 40
CFR 35.145(a), the Regional
Administrator may provide air pollution
control agencies up to three-fifths of the
approved costs of implementing
programs for the prevention and control
of air pollution. CAA section 105 grants
require two types of cost share
requirements, a match requirement and
an MOE requirement. An eligible agency
must meet a minimum 40% match. In
addition, to remain eligible for CAA
section 105 grants, an eligible agency
must meet an MOE requirement under
section 105(c)(1) of the CAA, 42 U.S.C.
7405(c)(1).
Program activities relevant to the
match consist of both recurring and
non-recurring (unique, one-time only)
expenses. The MOE provision requires
that a state or local agency spend at least
the same dollar level of funds as it did
in the previous grant year, but only for
the costs of recurring activities.
Specifically, section 105(c)(1) of the
CAA, 42 U.S.C. 7405(c)(1), provides
that, ‘‘No agency shall receive any grant
under this section during any fiscal year
when its expenditures of non-Federal
funds for recurrent expenditures for air
pollution control programs
[maintenance of effort or MOE level]
will be less than its expenditures were
for such programs during the preceding
fiscal year.’’ The EPA’s implementing
regulations at 40 CFR 35.146(a) reiterate
the CAA section 105(c)(1) MOE
requirement.
Although the PRDNER has
successfully completed a portion of its
Fiscal Year 2019 air pollution control
program, PRDNER has faced challenges
that have impacted its ability to meet
the statutory MOE requirement for its
Fiscal Year 2019 CAA section 105 grant.
By letter to the EPA dated May 15, 2023,
PRDNER explained that compliance
VerDate Sep<11>2014
18:11 Jul 28, 2023
Jkt 259001
with the MOE has been a challenge due
to natural events that affected Puerto
Rico such as hurricanes and earthquakes
and the interruptions to the operations
of the Government of Puerto Rico due to
the COVID–19 pandemic. The
restrictions imposed by the Department
of Health to prevent or reduce the risk
of COVID–19 exposure affected
PRDNER’s performance of grant
workplan tasks. These factors combined
with fiscal constraints and the lack of
sufficient human resources to complete
the grant workplan tasks created an
MOE shortfall. Since PRDNER did not
satisfy the statutory requirement for the
maintenance of effort for Fiscal Year
2019, EPA intends to revoke PRDNER’s
Fiscal Year 2019 CAA section 105 grant.
Pursuant to section 105(e) of the CAA,
the EPA is providing prior notice of its
intent to revoke PRDNER’s Fiscal Year
2019 CAA section 105 grant. The
proposed administrative action does not
otherwise impact the air pollution
control program already carried out by
PRDNER during Fiscal Year 2019,
which ended on September 30, 2019.
This notice constitutes a request for
public comment and an opportunity for
public hearing as required by CAA
section 105(e) and EPA’s implementing
regulations at 40 CFR 35.148(b). All
written comments received by August
30, 2023 on this proposal will be
considered. EPA will conduct a public
hearing on this proposal if EPA finds,
based on written requests for a public
hearing, that the issues raised are
substantial or a significant degree of
public interest in this proposal has been
expressed; written requests for a hearing
must be received by EPA at the address
above by August 30, 2023. If no written
request for a hearing is received or if
EPA determines that the issues raised
are insubstantial or no significant degree
of public interest in this proposed
action has been expressed, EPA will
proceed to the final action on this grant.

Regional Administrator, Region 2.
