Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 242 / Tuesday, December 19, 2023 / Rules and Regulations U.S. The EPA relies on a single set of updated, 2016-base year photochemical grid modeling results for the year 2023 as the primary basis for its assessment of air quality conditions and contributions at steps 1 and 2 of the EPA’s 4-step framework for assessing good neighbor obligations. The EPA has selected nationally uniform analytic years for its analysis under the 4-step framework and is applying a nationally uniform approach to nonattainment and maintenance receptors and a nationally uniform approach to contribution threshold analysis.11 Specifically, the Administrator finds that this action on the State of Wyoming’s SIP submission is based on several determinations of nationwide scope or effect, including his determination: (1) that use of the same 2023 analytical year air quality modeling (2016v3) and monitoring data that were used to define all other states’ good neighbor obligations for the 2015 ozone NAAQS is appropriate for evaluating Wyoming’s contribution in this action; (2) that it is appropriate to use the EPA’s nationwide methodology for identifying nonattainment and maintenance receptors, including ‘‘violating monitor’’ maintenance-only receptors, using the 2016v3 modeling and recent monitoring data; (3) that it is appropriate to use the EPA’s nationwide methodology for calculating states’ contribution levels to out of state receptors in calculating Wyoming’s impact; and (4) that a conclusion that a state’s impact on all out of state receptors is less than 1 percent of the NAAQS (using the data and methodologies described in items (1) through (3)) is sufficient to approve the state’s good neighbor SIP submission for the 2015 ozone NAAQS, without further analysis. These determinations lie at the core of this final action and ensure consistency and equity in the treatment of all states in addressing the multistate problem of interstate ozone pollution under the good neighbor provision for the 2015 ozone NAAQS. These determinations are not related to the particularities of the emissions sources in Wyoming or any specific state. For these reasons, the Administrator is exercising the complete discretion afforded to him under the CAA and hereby makes and publishes a finding that this action is based on multiple determinations of nationwide scope or effect for purposes of CAA section 307(b)(1). Therefore, any petitions for review of this action must be filed in the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals. State effective date Rule No. Rule title (35) XXXV ............... Interstate transport SIP for section 110(a)(2)(D)(i)(I) prongs 1 and 2 for the 2015 Ozone NAAQS.
