### 16457 Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 62 / Thursday, April 1, 2010 / Notices

**ACTION :**  Notice of adequacy determination.

**SUMMARY :**  EPA is notifying the public that it has found that the motor vehicle emissions budgets (MVEB) in the Beaumont-Port Arthur, Texas (BPA) Redesignation Request/Maintenance Plan State Implementation Plan (SIP) revision, submitted on December 16, 2008, by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) are adequate for transportation conformity purposes. As a result of EPA’s finding, the BPA area must use these budgets for future conformity determinations for the 1997 8-hour ozone standard.

**DATES :**  These budgets are effective April
16, 2010.

**FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT :** 

The essential information in this notice will be available at EPA’s conformity Web site: http:// www.epa.gov/otaq/stateresources/ transconf/adequacy.htm. You may also contact Mr. Jeffrey Riley, Air Planning Section (6PD–L), U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region 6, 1445 Ross Avenue, Dallas, Texas 75202–2733, telephone (214) 665–8542, E-mail address: Riley.Jeffrey@epa.gov.

**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :**  Throughout this document ‘‘we, ’’ ‘‘ us, ’’ and ‘‘ our’’ refers to EPA. The word

‘‘budget(s) ’’ refers to the mobile source emissions budget for volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and the mobile source emissions budget for nitrogen oxides (NO X ).

On December 16, 2008, we received a State Implementation Plan (SIP) revision from the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ). This revision consisted of a Redesignation Request/Maintenance Plan SIP for the Beaumont-Port Arthur (BPA) ozone nonattainment area. This submission established the motor vehicle emissions budgets (MVEB) for the BPA area for the year 2021. The MVEB is the amount of emissions allowed in the state implementation plan for on-road motor vehicles; it establishes an emissions ceiling for the regional transportation network. The MVEB is provided in Table 1:

On April 15, 2009, EPA posted the availability of the BPA area budget on EPA’s Web site, as part of the adequacy process, for the purpose of soliciting public comments. The comment period closed on May 15, 2009, and we received no comments.

Today’s notice is simply an announcement of a finding that EPA has already made. EPA Region 6 sent a letter to TCEQ on March 4, 2010, finding that the MVEB in the BPA Redesignation Request/Maintenance Plan SIP, submitted on December 16, 2008, is adequate and must be used for transportation conformity determinations in the BPA area. This finding has also been announced on EPA’s conformity Web site: http:// www.epa.gov/otaq/stateresources/ transconf/adequacy.htm.

Transportation conformity is required by section 176(c) of the Clean Air Act. EPA’s conformity rule, 40 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) part 93, requires that transportation plans, programs and projects conform to state air quality implementation plans and establishes the criteria and procedures for determining whether or not they do so. Conformity to a SIP means that transportation activities will not produce new air quality violations, worsen existing violations, or delay timely attainment of the national ambient air quality standards.

The criteria by which EPA determines whether a SIP’s MVEB is adequate for transportation conformity purposes are outlined in 40 CFR 93.118(e)(4). We have also described the process for determining the adequacy of submitted SIP budgets in our July 1, 2004, final rulemaking entitled, ‘‘ Transportation Conformity Rule Amendments for the New 8-hour Ozone and PM2.5 National Ambient Air Quality Standards and Miscellaneous Revisions for Existing Areas; Transportation Conformity Rule Amendments: Response to Court Decision and Additional Rule Changes ’’ (69 FR 40004). Please note that an adequacy review is separate from EPA’s completeness review, and it should not be used to prejudge EPA’s ultimate approval of the BPA Redesignation Request/Maintenance Plan SIP revision submittal. Even if EPA finds a budget adequate, the Redesignation Request/ Maintenance Plan SIP revision submittal could later be disapproved.

Within 24 months from the effective date of this notice, the transportation partners will need to demonstrate conformity to the new MVEB if the demonstration has not already been made, pursuant to 40 CFR 93.104(e). See, 73 FR 4419 (January 24, 2008). Authority: 42 U.S.C. 7401 et seq.
Dated: March 24, 2010. Lawrence E. Starfield, Acting Regional Administrator, Region 6.

Title: NSPS for Wool Fiberglass Insulation Manufacturing Plants and NESHAP for Wool Fiberglass Manufacturing (Renewal).

ICR Numbers: EPA ICR Number 1160.09, OMB Control Number 2060–

0114.

ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to expire on May 31, 2010. Under OMB regulations, the Agency may continue to conduct or sponsor the collection of information while this submission is pending at OMB. An Agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. The OMB control numbers for the EPA regulations in title 40 of the CFR, after appearing in the Federal Register when approved, are listed in 40 CFR part 9, and displayed either by publication in the Federal Register or by other appropriate means, such as on the related collection instrument or form, if applicable. The display of OMB control numbers in certain EPA regulations is consolidated in 40 CFR part 9.

Abstract: The NSPS for Wool Fiberglass Insulation Manufacturing Plants, published at 40 CFR part 60, subpart PPP, were proposed on February 7, 1984 and promulgated on February 25, 1985, and the NESHAP for Wool Fiberglass Manufacturing, published at 40 CFR part 63, subpart NNN, were proposed on March 31, 1997 and promulgated on June 14, 1999.

Owners or operators of the affected facilities must make an initial notification, performance tests, periodic reports, and maintain records of the occurrence and duration of any startup, shutdown, or malfunction in the operation of an affected facility, or any period during which the monitoring system is inoperative. Reports, at a minimum, are required semiannually.

Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 103 hours per response. Burden means the total time, effort, or financial resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, or disclose or provide information to or for a Federal agency. This includes the time needed to review instructions; develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and systems for the purposes of collecting, validating, and verifying information, processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and providing information; adjust the existing ways to comply with any previously applicable instructions and requirements which have subsequently changed; train personnel to be able to respond to a collection of information; search data sources; complete and review the collection of information; and transmit or otherwise disclose the information.

Respondents/Affected Entities: Wool fiberglass insulation manufacturing plants.

Estimated Number of Respondents:

61.

Frequency of Response: Initially, occasionally, and semiannually.

Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden:
18,599.

Estimated Total Annual Cost: $2,233,940, which includes $1,745,440 in labor costs, no capital/startup costs, and $488,500 in operation and maintenance (O&M) costs.

Changes in the Estimates: There is a small increase in the total labor hours for this ICR, due to an adjustment. The previous ICR did not include managerial and clerical hours for 40 CFR part 60, subpart PPP. This adjustment also results in a slight increase in the per respondent labor hours, from 101 to 103 hours per response.

Although these adjustments resulted in an increase in calculated burden hours, the regulations have not changed over the past three years and are not anticipated to change over the next three years. Additionally, the growth rate for the respondents is very low, negative or non-existent.

There is an increase in both respondent and Agency costs resulting from labor rate increases. This ICR has been updated to present the most recent available labor rates.

Dated: March 26, 2010. John Moses, Director, Collection Strategies Division.
