**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :**  Throughout this document ‘‘we,’’ ‘‘us,’’ or ‘‘our’’ refer to EPA. This section provides additional information by addressing the following: 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 approving a revision to the State Implementation Plan (SIP) submitted by the State of Missouri for the purpose of incorporating administrative changes to the Missouri rule entitled ‘‘Municipal Solid Waste Landfills’’ rule, 10 CSR 10–5.490. This revision updates the rule to maintain consistency with the Federal requirements, corrects typographical errors, includes formatting changes, and corrects inconsistencies from previous final rule actions. Missouri’s request to move definitions to rule 10 CSR 10– 6.020 ‘‘Definitions and Common Reference Tables’’ will be addressed in a separate rulemaking action.

Specifically, the State of Missouri made the following changes in rule 10 CSR 10–5.490 ‘‘Municipal Solid Waste Landfills’’. Subsections (1)(B) and (1)(C) were amended to add and correct legal citations. Subsection (1)(D) was added to match the text of 40 CFR 60, subpart Cc. Section (2) was amended to move all definitions to Missouri rule 10 CSR 10– 6.020 which will be addressed in a separate action. Section (3) was amended and sections (4) through (7) were amended and renumbered to match the format of rule 10 CSR 10– 6.310 ‘‘Restriction of Emissions from Municipal Solid Waste Landfills’’ and text of 40 CFR 60, subpart WWW, and correct legal citations. Subpart (3)(C) was added to incorporate by reference parts of the Code of Federal Regulations. Section (4) was added to match rule 10 CSR 10–6.310 and the most current 40 CFR 60, subpart WWW. Sections (9) and (10) were added to match rule 10 CSR 10–6.310 and the text of 40 CFR 60, subpart WWW.

In a separate action being published in today’s Federal Register , EPA is taking action to approve Missouri’s state plan for designated facilities for Municipal Solid Waste Landfills under CAA 111(d) authority. This separate action pertains to Missouri rules 10 CSR 10–5.490 and 10 CSR 10–6.310. II. Have the requirements for approval of a SIP revision been met?

The Missouri Air Conservation Commission adopted these actions on February 12, 2012, after considering comments received at public hearing. The rule became effective on May 30, 2012. The commission has full legal authority to develop rules pursuant to Section 643.050 of the Missouri Air Conservation Law. The state followed all applicable administrative procedures in proposing and adopting the rule actions.

The state submission has met the public notice requirements for SIP submissions in accordance with 40 CFR 51.102. The submission also satisfies the completeness criteria of 40 CFR part 51, appendix V. In addition the revision meets the substantive SIP requirements of the CAA, including section 110 and implementing regulations. III. What action is EPA taking?

EPA is approving the revision to the SIP submitted by the State of Missouri for the purpose of incorporating administrative changes to the ‘‘Municipal Solid Waste Landfills’’ rule 10 CSR 10–5.490. EPA is approving this SIP revision based on EPA’s finding that the rule is as stringent as the rule it replaces and fulfills the requirements of the CAA.

EPA is publishing this rule without a prior proposed rule because we view this as a noncontroversial action and anticipate no adverse comment because the revisions are administrative and consistent with Federal regulations. However, in the ‘‘Proposed Rules’’ section of today’s Federal Register , we are publishing a separate document that will serve as the proposed rule to approve the SIP revision. If EPA receives adverse comments on this direct final rule, we will publish a timely withdrawal in the Federal Register informing the public that this direct final rule will not take effect. We would address all public comments in any subsequent final rule based on the proposed rule. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

Under the CAA, the Administrator is required to approve a SIP submission that complies with the provisions of the Act 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 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


### 21139 Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 72 / Tuesday, April 15, 2014 / Rules and Regulations

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 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.

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 CAA, petitions for judicial review of this action must be filed in the United States Court of Appeals for the appropriate circuit by June 16, 2014. Filing a petition for reconsideration by the Administrator of this direct 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. Parties with objections to this direct final rule are encouraged to file a comment in response to the parallel notice of proposed rulemaking for this action published in the proposed rules section of today’s Federal Register , rather than file an immediate petition for judicial review of this direct final rule, so that EPA can withdraw this direct final rule and address the comment in the proposed rulemaking. This action may not be challenged later in proceedings to enforce its requirements. (See section 307(b)(2).)

**SUMMARY :**  The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has determined that the Baton Rouge, Louisiana marginal 2008 8-hour ozone nonattainment area is currently attaining the 2008 8-hour National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) for ozone. This determination is based upon complete, quality assured, certified ambient air monitoring data that show the area has monitored attainment of the 2008 8-hour ozone NAAQS during the 2011–2013 monitoring period, and continues to
