Approval and Promulgation of 

Implementation Plans; State of Iowa;

Quality Standards, Section 

110(a)(2)(E)(ii), and a Supplemental SIP 

for Relevant Iowa Laws and

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Proposed rule. 

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA) is proposing to approve 

elements of a State Implementation Plan 

(SIP) submission from the State of Iowa 

for the 2008 National Ambient Air 

Quality Standards (NAAQS) for Lead 

(Pb) addressing the applicable 

requirements of the Clean Air Act (CAA) 

section 110, which requires that each 

state adopt and submit a SIP for the 

implementation, maintenance, and 

enforcement of each new or revised 

NAAQS promulgated by the EPA. These 

SIPs are commonly referred to as 

‘‘infrastructure’’ SIPs. The infrastructure 

requirements are designed to ensure that 

the structural components of each 

state’s air quality management program 

are adequate to meet the State’s 

responsibilities under the CAA. 

EPA is also proposing to approve a 

supplemental revision for the SIP to 

include article 1, section 2 of the Iowa 

Constitution, and portions of the Iowa 

Code and the Iowa Administrative Code 

to codify the relevant state laws as 

applied to conflict of interest 

provisions.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Throughout this document whenever 

‘‘we,’’ ‘‘us,’’ or ‘‘our’’ is used, we refer 

to EPA. A detailed technical support 

document (TSD) is included in this 

rulemaking docket to address the 

following: A description of Clean Air 

Act section 110(a)(1) and (2) 

infrastructure SIPs; the applicable 

elements under sections 110(a)(1) and 

(2); EPA’s approach to the review of 

infrastructure SIP submissions, and 

EPA’s evaluation of how the Iowa 

addressed the relevant elements of 

sections 110(a)(1) and (2). This section 

provides additional information by 

addressing the following questions: 

I. What is being addressed in this document? 

II. Have the requirements for approval of a 

SIP revision been met? 

III. What action is EPA taking? 

I. What is being addressed in this 

document? 

EPA is proposing to approve the two 

submissions from the State of Iowa: The 

infrastructure SIP submission (received 

November 4, 2011) from Iowa which 

addresses the requirements of CAA 

sections 110(a)(1) and (2) as applicable 

to the 2008 Pb NAAQS, and the 

submission from Iowa (Received May 

11, 2015, that codifies article 1, section 

2, of the Iowa Constitution, as well as 

the relevant sections of the Iowa Code 

and the Iowa Administrative Code as 

they apply to conflict of interest 

provisions addressed in this action are 

referenced in the ‘‘EPA Approved 

Nonregulatory SIP Provisions’’ table 

accompanying this notice. 

A Technical Support Document is 

included as part of the docket to discuss 

the details of this proposal, including 

analysis of how the SIP meets the 

applicable 110 requirements for 

infrastructure SIPs including 

specifically section 128 and 110(a)(2)(E). 

II. Have the requirements for approval 

of a SIP revision been met? 

The state submission has met the 

public notice requirements for SIP 

submissions in accordance with 40 CFR 

51.102. The submission also satisfied 

the completeness criteria of 40 CFR part 

51, appendix V. In addition, as 

explained above and in more detail in 

the technical support document which 

is part of this document, the revision 

meets the substantive SIP requirements 

of the CAA, including section 110 and 

implementing regulations. 

III. What action is EPA taking? 

EPA is proposing to approve the 

November 4, 2011, infrastructure SIP 

submission from Iowa which addresses 

the requirements of CAA sections 

110(a)(1) and (2) as applicable to the 

2008 Pb NAAQS. In addition, EPA is 

proposing to approve the May 11 2015 

submission from Iowa that codifies 

article 1, section 2, of the Iowa 

Constitution, as well as the relevant 

sections of the Iowa Code and the Iowa 

Administrative Code as they apply to 

conflict of interest provisions. Details of 

these submissions are addressed in a 

Technical Support Document as part of 

the docket to discuss the proposal. 

Based upon review of the state’s 

infrastructure SIP submissions and 

relevant statutory and regulatory 

authorities and provisions referenced in 

those submissions or referenced in 

Iowa’s SIP, EPA believes that Iowa’s SIP 

will meet all applicable required 

elements of sections 110(a)(1) and (2) 

with respect to the 2008 Pb NAAQS. 

We are processing this as a proposed 

action because we are soliciting 

comments on this proposed action. 

Final rulemaking will occur after 

consideration of any comments. 

Statutory and Executive Order Review 

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 approves 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’’ under the terms of Executive 

Order 12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 

1993) and is therefore not subject to 

review under Executive Orders 12866 

and 13563 (76 FR 3821, January 21, 

2011). 

• 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).

The SIP is not approved to apply on 

any Indian reservation land or in any 

other area where EPA or an Indian tribe 

has demonstrated that a tribe has 

jurisdiction. In those areas of Indian 

country, the rule does not have tribal 

implications and will not impose 

substantial direct costs on tribal 

governments or preempt tribal law as 

specified by Executive Order 13175 (65 

FR 67249, November 9, 2000).
