h. Make sure to submit your comments by the comment period deadline identified. II. Background

EPA’s statutory authority for the regulation of new and existing solid waste incineration units is outlined in CAA sections 111 and 129. Section 129 of the CAA is specific to solid waste combustion, and requires EPA to establish performance standards for each category of solid waste incineration units. Section 111 of the Act gives EPA the statutory authority to promulgate new source performance standards (NSPS), applicable to new units, and/or emission guidelines (EG) for existing units. EG are implementedand enforced through either an EPAapproved state plan or a promulgated federal plan. If a state does not have any existing solid waste incineration units for the relevant EG, the state shall submit a letter to EPA certifying that no such units exist within the state (i.e., negative declaration) in lieu of a state plan.

A SSI unit is a solid waste incinerator located at a wastewater treatment facility designed to treat domestic sewage sludge. On March 21, 2011 (76 FR 15372), EPA promulgated (40 CFR part 60) NSPS for new SSI units (subpart LLLL) and EG for existing SSI units (subpart MMMM). Existing SSI units are units that commenced construction on or before October 14, 2010. The State of Colorado, the State of Montana, the State of North Dakota, the State of South Dakota, the State of Utah, and the State of Wyoming each determined, through negative declarations, that there are no existing SSI units subject to CAA sections 111 and 129 within the jurisdictional boundaries of their state.

A. Colorado

Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment submitted a negative declaration on April 3, 2013, certifying the Air Pollution Control Division identified no SSI units affected by the EG.

B. Montana

Montana Department of Environmental Quality submitted a negative declaration on December 10, 2013, certifying no SSI units covered under 40 CFR 60, subpart MMMM.

C. North Dakota

North Dakota Department of Health submitted a negative declaration on November 27, 2012, certifying no SSI units covered under 40 CFR 60, subpart MMMM.

D. South Dakota

South Dakota Department of Environment and Natural Resources submitted a negative declaration on November 21, 2012, certifying no SSI units subject to 40 CFR 60, subpart MMMM.

E. Utah

Utah Department of Environmental Quality submitted a negative declaration on December 23, 2013, certifying no existing SSI units. F. Wyoming Wyoming Department of Environmental Quality submitted a negative declaration dated February 28, 2013, certifying no SSI units operating within the state. Under subpart MMMM, Emission Guidelines and Compliance Times for Existing Sewage Sludge Incineration Units, EPA has no formal review process for negative declaration letters (40 CFR 60.5030).

III. Final Action

EPA is publishing the negative declarations for existing SSI units for the State of Colorado, the State of Montana, the State of North Dakota, the State of South Dakota, the State of Utah, and the State of Wyoming. The negative declarations satisfy the requirements of 40 CFR 62.06 and will serve in lieu of CAA section 111(d)/129 state plans for the specified states and source category.

EPA is publishing this rule without prior proposal because the Agency views this as a noncontroversial action and anticipates no adverse comments. However, in the Proposed Rules section of today’s Federal Register publication, EPA is publishing a separate document that will serve as the proposal to publish the negative declarations should relevant adverse comments be filed. This rule will be effective April 28, 2015 without further notice unless the Agency receives relevant adverse comments by March 30, 2015.

If the EPA receives adverse comments, EPA will publish a timely withdrawal in the Federal Register informing the public that the rule will not take effect. EPA will address all public comments in a subsequent final rule based on the proposed rule. The EPA will not institute a second comment period on this action. Any parties interested in commenting must do so at this time. Please note that if EPA receives adverse comment on an amendment, paragraph, or section of this rule and if that provision may be severed from the remainder of the rule, EPA may adopt as final those provisions of the rule that are not the subject of an adverse comment. IV. Statutory and Executive Orders Review

This final action merely publishes some state negative declarations and does not impose additional requirements beyond those imposed by state law. For that reason, this 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);


### 10610 Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 39 / Friday, February 27, 2015 / Rules and Regulations

• 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, this rule does not have Tribal implications as specified by Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000), because it will not have a substantial direct effect on one or more Indian tribes, and EPA notes that it will not impose substantial direct costs on Tribal governments or preempt Tribal law.

The Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801 et seq., as added by the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996, generally provides that before a rule may take effect, the agency promulgating the rule must submit a rule report, which includes a copy of the rule, to each House of the Congress and to the Comptroller General of the United States. EPA will submit a report containing this action and other required information to the U.S. Senate, the U.S. House of Representatives, and the Comptroller General of the United States prior to publication of the rule in the Federal Register. A major rule cannot take effect until 60 days after it is published in the Federal Register

. This action is not a ‘‘major rule’’ as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2).

Under section 307(b)(1) of the Clean Air Act, petitions for judicial review of this action must be filed in the United States Court of Appeals for the appropriate circuit by April 28, 2015. Filing a petition for reconsideration by the Administrator of this final rule does not affect the finality of this action for the purposes of judicial review nor does it extend the time within which a petition for judicial review may be filed, and shall not postpone the effectiveness of such rule or action. This action may not be challenged later in proceedings to enforce its requirements. (See CAA section 307(b)(2).) List of Subjects in 40 CFR Part 62
