ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Parts 52 and 70

[EPA-R07-OAR-2013-0765; FRL-9940-97-Region 7]

Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans; State of 
Kansas; Annual Emissions Fee and Annual Emissions Inventory

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Direct final rule; technical amendment.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) inadvertently 
approved and codified this action under both part 52 (Approval and 
Promulgation of Implementation Plans) and part 70 (State Operating 
Permit Programs). This technical amendment removes the part 52 approval 
and codification and makes a clarification to part 70.

DATES: This action is effective January 14, 2016.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Lachala Kemp at (913) 551-7214, or by 
email at kemp.lachala@epa.gov.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On January 27, 2014 (79 FR 4274), EPA 
published a direct final rule approving a SIP revision for Kansas that 
included revisions to K.A.R. 28-19-202 ``Annual Emission Fees.'' The 
rule revision amended KAR 28-19-202 ``Annual Emissions Fees'' to align 
the state's reporting requirements with EPA's reporting requirements, 
and was incorrectly approved and codified under part 52 and part 70.
    This rule also included revisions to the operating permits program, 
K.A.R 28-19-517 ``Class I Operating Permits; Annual Emissions 
Inventory.'' This part 70 appendix A revision added new paragraph (f) 
``The Kansas Department of Health and Environment submitted revisions 
to Kansas Administrative Record (KAR) 28-19-202 and 28-19-517 on April 
15, 2011; approval of section (c) effective March 28, 2014.''
    This technical amendment removes the erroneous part 52 approval of 
KAR 28-19-202 ``Annual Emissions Fees'' and recodifies the table. This 
action also revises paragraph (f) to read as follows: (f) ``The Kansas 
Department of Health and Environment submitted revisions to Kansas 
Administrative Record (KAR) 28-19-202 and 28-19-517 on April 15, 2011; 
effective March 28, 2014.''
