Approval and Promulgation of State 

Implementation Plans; State of Iowa

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Direct final rule.

SUMMARY: EPA is announcing a revision 

to the Iowa State implementation plan 

(SIP) establishing exemptions for 

equipment that is either used for 

nonproduction activities or exhausted 

inside a building, to establish an 

exemption for manually-operated 

equipment, and to establish exemptions 

for emission units that can be classified 

as small units. The State has determined 

that air pollution emissions from this 

equipment are negligible and these 

exemptions are likely to result in no 

significant impact on human health or 

the environment.

DATES: This direct final rule will be 

effective January 11, 2005, without 

further notice, unless EPA receives 

adverse comment by December 13, 

2004. If adverse comment is received, 

EPA will publish a timely withdrawal of

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Throughout this document whenever 

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

EPA. This section provides additional 

information by addressing the following 

questions:

What Is a SIP? 

What Is the Federal Approval Process for 

a SIP? 

What Does Federal Approval of a State 

Regulation Mean to Me? 

What Is Being Addressed in This 

Document? 

Have the Requirements for Approval of a 

SIP Revision Been Met? 

What Action is EPA Taking?

What Is a SIP? 

Section 110 of the Clean Air Act 

(CAA) requires States to develop air 

pollution regulations and control 

strategies to ensure that State air quality 

meets the national ambient air quality 

standards (NAAQS) established by EPA. 

These ambient standards are established 

under section 109 of the CAA, and they 

currently address six criteria pollutants. 

These pollutants are: Carbon monoxide, 

nitrogen dioxide, ozone, lead, 

particulate matter, and sulfur dioxide.

Each State must submit these 

regulations and control strategies to us 

for approval and incorporation into the 

Federally-enforceable SIP. 

Each federally-approved SIP protects 

air quality primarily by addressing air 

pollution at its point of origin. These 

SIPs can be extensive, containing State 

regulations or other enforceable 

documents and supporting information 

such as emission inventories, 

monitoring networks, and modeling 

demonstrations. 

What Is the Federal Approval Process 

for an SIP? 

In order for State regulations to be 

incorporated into the federallyenforceable SIP, States must formally 

adopt the regulations and control 

strategies consistent with State and 

Federal requirements. This process 

generally includes a public notice, 

public hearing, public comment period, 

and a formal adoption by a Stateauthorized rulemaking body. 

Once a State rule, regulation, or 

control strategy is adopted, the State 

submits it to us for inclusion into the 

SIP. We must provide public notice and 

seek additional public comment 

regarding the proposed Federal action 

on the State submission. If adverse 

comments are received, they must be 

addressed prior to any final Federal 

action by us. 

All State regulations and supporting 

information approved by EPA under 

section 110 of the CAA are incorporated 

into the federally-approved SIP. Records 

of such SIP actions are maintained in 

the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) at 

title 40, part 52, entitled ‘‘Approval and 

Promulgation of Implementation Plans.’’

The actual State regulations which are 

approved are not reproduced in their 

entirety in the CFR outright but are 

‘‘incorporated by reference,’’ which 

means that we have approved a given 

State regulation with a specific effective 

date. 

What Does Federal Approval of a State 

Regulation Mean to Me? 

Enforcement of the State regulation 

before and after it is incorporated into 

the federally-approved SIP is primarily 

a State responsibility. However, after the 

regulation is federally approved, we are 

authorized to take enforcement action 

against violators. Citizens are also 

offered legal recourse to address 

violations as described in section 304 of 

the CAA. 

What Is Being Addressed in This 

Document? 

EPA is approving a revision to the SIP 

for the State of Iowa which establishes 

exemptions from its construction 

permitting program for low-emitting 

equipment that is either used for 

nonproduction activities or exhausted 

inside a building, an exemption for 

manually-operated equipment, and 

exemptions for emission units that can 

be classified as small units. 

Equipment that is used for 

nonproduction activities or exhausted 

inside a building includes carving, 

cutting, routing, turning, drilling, 

machining, sawing, surface grinding, 

sanding, planing, buffing, sandblast 

cleaning, shot blasting, shot peening, or 

polishing ceramic artwork, leather, 

metals (other than beryllium), plastics, 

concrete, rubber, paper stock, and wood 

or wood products. (Iowa Administrative 

Code 567, chapter 22, Controlling 

Pollution, 22.1(2)u.) 

Manually-operated equipment 

exemptions include equipment used for 

buffing, polishing, carving, cutting, 

drilling, machining, routing, sanding, 

sawing, scarfing, surface grinding, or 

turning. (Iowa Administrative Code 567, 

Chapter 22, Controlling Pollution, 

22.1(2)v.) 

The exemption for small units defines 

such units as emission units and 

associated control equipment (if 

applicable) that emit less than 40 

pounds per year of lead and lead 

compounds expressed as lead; 5 tons 

per year of sulfur dioxide; 5 tons per 

year of nitrogen oxides; 5 tons per year 

of volatile organic compounds; 5 tons 

per year of carbon monoxide; 5 tons per 

year of particulate matter; 2.5 tons per 

year of PM10, and 5 tons per year of 

hazardous air pollutants. An emission 

unit that emits hazardous air pollutants 

is eligible for this exemption provided 

that the emission unit is not required to 

be reviewed for compliance with 

emission standards for hazardous air 

pollutants, or emission standards for 

hazardous air pollutants for source 

categories. An emission unit that emits 

air pollutants that are not regulated air 

pollutants as defined in the Iowa rules 

are not eligible to use this exemption. 

This exemption applies to both existing 

and new or modified small units.

An owner or operator that utilizes the 

small unit exemption must maintain on 

site an ‘‘exemption justification 

document.’’ The exemption justification 

document must document conformance 

and compliance with the emission rate 

Federal Register / Vol. 69, No. 218 / Friday, November 12, 2004 / Rules and Regulations 65377

limits contained in the definition of 

‘‘small unit’’ for the particular emission 

unit or group of similar emission units 

for which the exemption applies. The 

controls described in the exemption 

justification document establish a limit 

on potential emissions. 

The revision addresses the concern 

that small units may together lead to 

negative environmental impacts by use 

of a ‘‘substantial small unit’’ provision. 

A substantial small unit is defined as a 

unit that emits 75 percent of the small 

unit thresholds. The owner or operator 

of the facility must notify the state 

within 90 days of the end of a calendar 

year for which the aggregate emissions 

from substantial small units at the 

facility exceed any of the cumulative 

notice thresholds. 

A cumulative notice threshold is the 

total combined emissions from all 

substantial small units using the small 

unit exemption which emit at the 

facility 0.6 tons per year of lead and 

lead compounds expressed as lead; 40 

tons per year of sulfur dioxide; 40 tons 

per year of nitrogen oxides; 40 tons per 

year of volatile organic compounds; 100 

tons per year of carbon monoxide; 25 

tons per year of particulate matter; 15 

tons per year of PM10; or 10 tons per 

year of any hazardous air pollutant or 25 

tons per year of any combination of 

hazardous air pollutants. 

In the event that the small unit or 

substantial small unit thresholds are 

exceeded, the owner or operator is 

subject to penalties for violation of the 

rule and must apply for air construction 

permits. (Iowa Administrative Code 567, 

Chapter 22, Controlling Pollution, 

22.1(2)w.) Emission units which would 

be classified as major sources or 

modifications are not eligible for any of 

these exemptions. 

Iowa adopted the rule revisions after 

a lengthy stakeholder process. 

Informational meetings were held in 

June and July, 2003, and a public 

hearing was held on October 7, 2003. No 

comments were received at the public 

hearing or during the comment period. 

The State has reviewed the 

exemptions to determine whether 

sources operating under these 

exemptions might be anticipated to 

cause any air quality problems with 

respect to the NAAQS. The State has 

concluded that emission increases 

would be insignificant. EPA has 

concluded that exemption of emission 

units with such small emissions would 

not be expected to affect attainment or 

maintenance of any NAAQS. 

Have the Requirements for Approval of 

a SIP Revision Been Met? 

The State submittal has met the 

public notice requirements for SIP 

submissions in accordance with 40 CFR 

51.102. The submittal 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. 

What Action Is EPA Taking? 

EPA is revising the SIP for the State 

of Iowa for the purpose of adding 

information to establish exemptions for 

equipment that is either used for 

nonproduction activities or exhausted 

inside a building, to establish an 

exemption for manually-operated 

equipment, and to establish exemptions 

for emission units that can be classified 

as small units. The revision for 567–

22.1(2)‘‘u’’ and 567–22.1(2)‘‘v’’ was 

effective October 8, 2003, and the 

revision for 567–22.1(2)‘‘w’’ was 

effective January 14, 2004. This action is 

being processed as a direct final action 

because the revisions were made as a 

result of the state’s negotiated 

rulemaking process and no comments 

were submitted during the state’s public 

comment and hearing process. 

Therefore, we do not anticipate any 

adverse comments. Please note that if 

EPA receives adverse comment on part 

of this rule and if that part can be 

severed from the remainder of the rule, 

EPA may adopt as final those parts of 

the rule that are not the subject of an 

adverse comment.

Statutory and Executive Order Reviews 

Under Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 

51735, October 4, 1993), this action is 

not a ‘‘significant regulatory action’’ and 

therefore is not subject to review by the 

Office of Management and Budget. For 

this reason, this action is also not 

subject to Executive Order 13211, 

‘‘Actions Concerning Regulations That 

Significantly Affect Energy Supply, 

Distribution, or Use’’ (66 FR 28355, May 

22, 2001). This action merely approves 

State law as meeting Federal 

requirements and imposes no additional 

requirements beyond those imposed by 

State law. Accordingly, the 

Administrator certifies that this rule 

will not have a significant economic 

impact on a substantial number of small 

entities under the Regulatory Flexibility 

Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.). Because this 

rule approves pre-existing requirements 

under State law and does not impose 

any additional enforceable duty beyond 

that required by State law, it 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). 

This rule also does not have tribal 

implications because it will not have a 

substantial direct effect on one or more 

Indian tribes, on the relationship 

between the Federal Government and 

Indian tribes, or on the distribution of 

power and responsibilities between the 

Federal Government and Indian tribes, 

as specified by Executive Order 13175 

(65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000). This 

action also does not have Federalism 

implications because it does not have 

substantial direct effects on the States, 

on the relationship between the national 

government and the States, or on the 

distribution of power and 

responsibilities among the various 

levels of government, as specified in 

Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, 

August 10, 1999). This action merely 

approves a State rule implementing a 

Federal standard, and does not alter the 

relationship or the distribution of power 

and responsibilities established in the 

CAA. This rule also is not subject to 

Executive Order 13045, ‘‘Protection of 

Children from Environmental Health 

Risks and Safety Risks’’ (62 FR 19885, 

April 23, 1997), because it is not 

economically significant. 

In reviewing SIP submissions, EPA’s 

role is to approve State choices, 

provided that they meet the criteria of 

the CAA. In this context, in the absence 

of a prior existing requirement for the 

State to use voluntary consensus 

standards (VCS), EPA has no authority 

to disapprove a SIP submission for 

failure to use VCS. It would thus be 

inconsistent with applicable law for 

EPA, when it reviews a SIP submission, 

to use VCS in place of a SIP submission 

that otherwise satisfies the provisions of 

the CAA. Thus, the requirements of 

section 12(d) of the National 

Technology Transfer and Advancement 

Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272 note) do not 

apply. This rule does not impose an 

information collection burden under the 

provisions of the Paperwork Reduction 

Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.). 

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 rule and other 

65378 Federal Register / Vol. 69, No. 218 / Friday, November 12, 2004 / Rules and Regulations 

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 January 11, 2005. 

Filing a petition for reconsideration by 

the Administrator of this final rule does 

not affect the finality of this rule 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 section 

307(b)(2).)
