Equipment, and Vehicles regulations is 

within the scope of prior authorizations. 

This decision will affect persons in 

California and those manufacturers and/ 

or owners/operators nationwide who 

must comply with California’s 

requirements. In addition, because other 

states may adopt California’s standards 

for which a section 209(e)(2)(A) 

authorization has been granted if certain 

criteria are met, this decision would 

also affect those states and those 

persons in such states. See CAA section 

209(e)(2)(B). For these reasons, EPA 

determines and finds that this is a final 

action of national applicability, and also 

a final action of nationwide scope or 

effect for purposes of section 307(b)(1) 

of the Act. Pursuant to section 307(b)(1) 

of the Act, judicial review of this final 

action may be sought only in the United 

States Court of Appeals for the District 

of Columbia Circuit. Petitions for review 

must be filed by February 9, 2016. 

Judicial review of this final action may 

not be obtained in subsequent 

enforcement proceedings, pursuant to 

section 307(b)(2) of the Act. 

IV. Statutory and Executive Order 

Reviews 

As with past authorization and waiver 

decisions, this action is not a rule as 

defined by Executive Order 12866. 

Therefore, it is exempt from review by 

the Office of Management and Budget as 

required for rules and regulations by 

Executive Order 12866. 

In addition, this action is not a rule 

as defined in the Regulatory Flexibility 

Act, 5 U.S.C. 601(2). Therefore, EPA has 

not prepared a supporting regulatory 

flexibility analysis addressing the 

impact of this action on small business 

entities. 

Further, the Congressional Review 

Act, 5 U.S.C. 801, et seq., as added by 

the Small Business Regulatory 

Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996, does 

not apply because this action is not a 

rule for purposes of 5 U.S.C. 804(3). 

Dated: December 1, 2015. 

Janet G. McCabe, 

Acting Assistant Administrator, Office of Air 

and Radiation.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background: The National Advisory 

Council for Environmental Policy and 

Technology (NACEPT) is a federal 

advisory committee chartered under the 

Federal Advisory Committee Act 

(FACA), Public Law 92–463. EPA 

established NACEPT in 1988 to provide 

advice to the EPA Administrator on a 

broad range of environmental policy, 

management and technology issues. 

Members serve as representatives from 

academia, industry, non-governmental 

organizations, and state, local, and tribal 

governments. Members are appointed by 

the EPA Administrator for two year 

terms. The Council usually meets 2–3 

times annually face-to-face or via video/ 

teleconference and the average 

workload for the members is 

approximately 10 to 15 hours per 

month. Members serve on the Council 

in a voluntary capacity. However, EPA 

provides reimbursement for travel and 

incidental expenses associated with 

official government business. EPA is 

seeking nominations from candidates 

representing all sectors noted above. 

Within these sectors, EPA is seeking 

nominees with a strong background in 

citizen science, crowd source 

monitoring and technologies, 

community sustainability, 

environmental justice and economic 

initiatives, ecology and biodiversity, 

public health, social science, and 

environmental policy and management. 

Nominees will be considered 

according to the mandates of the Federal 

Advisory Committee Act (FACA), which 

requires committees to maintain 

diversity across a broad range of 

constituencies, sectors, groups, and 

geographical locations. EPA values and 

welcomes diversity. In an effort to 

obtain nominations of diverse 

candidates, EPA encourages 

nominations from women and men of 

all racial and ethnic groups, as well as 

persons with disabilities. Please note 

that interested candidates may selfnominate. 

The following criteria will be used to 

evaluate nominees: 

—Professional knowledge of 

environmental policy, management, 

and technology issues, particularly 

issues dealing with all facets of 

citizen science. 

—Demonstrated ability to assess and 

analyze environmental challenges 

with objectivity and integrity. 

—Middle/Senior-level leadership 

experience that fills a current need on 

the Council. 

—Excellent interpersonal, oral and 

written communication skills, and 

consensus-building skills. 

—Ability to volunteer approximately 10 

to 15 hours per month to the 

Council’s activities, including 

participation in face-to-face meetings, 

video/teleconference meetings and 

preparation of documents for the 

Council’s reports and advice letters. 

EPA’s policy is that, unless otherwise 

prescribed by statute, members 

generally are appointed to two year 

terms. 

Prospective candidates interested in 

being considered for an appointment to 

serve on the Council, should submit the 

following items to process your

that EPA’s policy is that candidates 

representing academia and tribal
