SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

On August 23, 2010 the Pennsylvania 

Department of Environmental Protection 

(PADEP) submitted a revision to the 

Allegheny County portion of the 

Pennsylvania State Implementation 

Plan. This SIP submission contains 

revisions to ACHD’s regulations under 

Article XXI section 2102.10, entitled 

‘‘Installation Permit Application and 

Administration Fees’’; and section 

2105.50, entitled ‘‘Open Burning and 

Administration Fees.’’ 

II. Summary of SIP Revision 

The revisions to sections 2102.10 and 

2105.50 under Article XXI consist of: (1) 

Deleting the fixed monetary amounts for 

permit fees provided for in both 

sections; (2) adding language in both 

sections stating that the amount of the 

given fee shall be set by the Board of 

Health, and approved by Allegheny 

County Council; and 3) adding language 

in section 2102.10 establishing fees by 

factoring in the degree of technical and 

regulatory difficulty in establishing fees 

for each category of installation permit. 

These categories include: (1) Any source 

requiring a Prevention of Significant 

Deterioration (PSD) permit; (2) an 

installation permit for a source for 

which ACHD is required to establish a 

maximum achievable control 

technology (MACT) standard for such 

source; (3) any source requiring an 

installation permit and subject to 

section 2102.06 involving new major 

sources and major modifications 

locating in or impacting a nonattainment area; (4) any source requiring 

an installation permit and subject to 

existing standards, such as: the New 

Source Performance Standards (NSPS), 

the National Emission Standards for 

Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) or 

the MACT standard; (5) any source 

requiring an installation permit but not 

subject to any of the previous 

requirements; and (6) for all 

applications to use general installation 

permits. 

III. Proposed Action 

EPA review of this material submitted 

on August 30, 2010 determined that the 

rule changes have gone through the 

appropriate state procedures and that 

the revised regulations satisfy the 

requirements laid out in the CAA at 

section 110(a)(2)(L)(i) and (ii) which 

requires SIPs to include fees sufficient 

to cover the reasonable costs of 

reviewing and acting upon any 

application for a permit required by the 

CAA, and (if the owner or operator 

receives a permit for such source) the 

reasonable costs of implementing and 

enforcing the terms and conditions of 

any such permit. Therefore EPA is 

proposing to approve this PADEP SIP 

revision containing revisions to the 

installation permit application and 

administration fees and open burning 

and administration fees requirements 

under ACHD Rules and Regulations, 

Article XXI.

Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 45 / Monday, March 9, 2015 / Proposed Rules 12375 

IV. Statutory and Executive Order 

Reviews 

Under the CAA, the Administrator is 

required to approve a SIP submission 

that complies with the provisions of the 

CAA 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 CAA. Accordingly, this action 

merely proposes to approve state law as 

meeting Federal requirements and does 

not impose additional requirements 

beyond those imposed by state law. For 

that reason, this proposed action: 

• Is not a ‘‘significant regulatory 

action’’ subject to review by the Office 

of Management and Budget under 

Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 51735, 

October 4, 1993); 

• 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); 

• 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 CAA; and 

• does not provide EPA with the 

discretionary authority to address, as 

appropriate, disproportionate human 

health or environmental effects, using 

practicable and legally permissible 

methods, under Executive Order 12898 

(59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994). 

In addition, EPA’s proposal to 

approve changes to ACHD regulations 

pertaining to establishing installation 

permit application and administration 

fees does not have tribal implications as 

specified by Executive Order 13175 (65 

FR 67249, November 9, 2000), because 

the SIP is not approved to apply in 

Indian country located in the state, and 

EPA notes that it will not impose 

substantial direct costs on tribal 

governments or preempt tribal law.
