Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 247 / Wednesday, December 23, 2020 / Proposed Rules 83877 

permitting program. We are proposing 

this action because we find that the 

2019–20 NSR submittals meet the 

applicable requirements under parts C 

and D of title I of the CAA, and that our 

action is consistent with sections 

110(a)(2), 110(l) and 193 of the Act. 

We will accept comments from the 

public on this proposal until January 22, 

2021. If we take final action to approve 

the 2019–20 NSR submittals, our final 

action will incorporate the identified 

rule(s) into the federally enforceable 

SIP. 

IV. Incorporation by Reference 

In this rule, the EPA is proposing to 

include in a final EPA rule regulatory 

text that includes incorporation by 

reference. In accordance with 

requirements of 1 CFR 51.5, the EPA is 

proposing to incorporate by reference 

the ADEQ rules described in Table 1 of 

this preamble. The EPA has made, and 

will continue to make, these materials 

available through https://

www.regulations.gov and at the EPA 

Region IX Office (please contact the 

person identified in the FOR FURTHER

INFORMATION CONTACT section of this 

preamble for more information). 

V. 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, the 

EPA’s role is to approve state choices, 

provided that they meet the criteria of 

the Act. Accordingly, this proposed 

action merely proposes to approve 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’’ subject to review by the Office 

of Management and Budget under 

Executive Orders 12866 (58 FR 51735, 

October 4, 1993) and 13563 (76 FR 3821, 

January 21, 2011); 

• Is not an Executive Order 13771 (82 

FR 9339, February 3, 2017) regulatory 

action because SIP approvals are 

exempted under Executive Order 12866; 

• 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 the EPA with the 

discretionary authority to address 

disproportionate human health or 

environmental effects with practical, 

appropriate, and legally permissible 

methods under Executive Order 12898 

(59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994). 

In addition, the SIP is not approved to 

apply on any Indian reservation land or 

in any other area where the 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).

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Proposed rule. 

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA) is proposing approval of 

revision to the Missouri State 

Implementation Plan (SIP), submitted 

by the Missouri Department of Natural 

Resources (MoDNR) on September 15, 

2020. The proposed revision removes 

the Kansas City, Missouri low Reid 

Vapor Pressure (RVP) requirement 

which required gasoline sold in the 

Kansas City, Missouri area to have a 

seven pounds per square inch Reid 

Vapor Pressure from June 1 to 

September 15. The majority of the state 

is subject to the Clean Air Act (CAA) 

nine pounds per square inch Reid Vapor 

Pressure from June 1 to September 15. 

If approved the Kansas City, Missouri 

area would be subject to the Clean Air 

Act Reid Vapor Pressure requirement. In 

addition, EPA anticipates issuing a 

separate proposal for the Kansas side of 

the Kansas City metro area.

II. What is being addressed in this 

document? 

The EPA is proposing to approve a 

revision to the Missouri SIP, submitted 

by the MoDNR on September 15, 2020. 

The proposed revision removes the 

Kansas City, Missouri; Clay, Jackson, 

and Platte Counties; seven pounds per 

square inch (psi) Reid Vapor Pressure 

(RVP) requirement. The approved SIP, 

10 CSR 10–2.330, requires gasoline sold 

in the three counties to have an RVP of 

seven psi or less from June 1 through 

September 15.1 If the SIP revision is 

approved, the Kansas City, Missouri 

area would be subject to the CAA RVP 

requirement of nine psi or less from 

June 1 through September 15.2 Missouri 

has asked EPA to remove 10 CSR 10– 

2.330, Control of Gasoline Reid Vapor 

Pressure from the SIP. 

III. 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. The State provided 

public notice on this SIP revision from 

February 18, 2020 to April 2, 2020 and 

received three comments. Missouri 

adequately responded to the comments 

but did not change the removal based on 

the comments. In addition, as explained 

below, the revision meets the 

substantive SIP requirements of the 

CAA, including section 110 and 

implementing regulations. 

IV. Background 

The EPA established a 1-hour ozone 

NAAQS in 1971.3 36 FR 8186 (April 30, 

1971). On March 3, 1978, the EPA 

designated Clay, Platte and Jackson 

counties (hereinafter referred to in this 

document as the ‘‘Kanas City area’’) in 

nonattainment of the 1971 1-hour ozone 

NAAQS, as required by the CAA 

Amendments of 1977. 43 FR 8962 

(March 3, 1978). On February 8, 1979, 

the EPA revised the 1-hour ozone 

NAAQS, referred to as the 1979 ozone 

NAAQS. 44 FR 8202 (February 8, 1979). 

The EPA redesignated the Kansas City 

area to attainment of the 1979 1-hour 

ozone standard and approved the ozone 

maintenance plan on July 23, 1992. 57 

FR 27939 (June 23, 1992). Pursuant to 

section 175A of the CAA, the first 10- 

year maintenance period for the 1-hour 

ozone standard began on July 23, 1992, 

the effective date of the redesignation 

approval. 

In 1995, the Kansas City area violated 

the 1979 1-hour ozone standard. 

Missouri revised the control strategy 

and contingency measures in the 

maintenance plan, which was approved 

on June 24, 2002. 67 FR 20036 (April 24, 

2002). The revised control strategy 

included 10 CSR 10–2.330, Control of 

Gasoline Reid Vapor Pressure. 

On January 1, 1997, Missouri adopted 

the seven and two tenths (7.2) pounds 

per square inch (psi) Reid Vapor 

Pressure (RVP) limit from June 1 to 

September 15.4 EPA approved this rule 

into the SIP on April 24, 1998.5 On 

April 3, 2001, Missouri revised the rule 

to seven (7.0) psi limit from June 1 to 

September 15.6 EPA approved this rule 

into the SIP on February 13, 2002.7

On April 30, 2004, the EPA published 

a final rule in the Federal Register 

stating the 1979 ozone NAAQS would 

no longer apply (i.e., would be revoked) 

for an area one year after the effective 

date of the area’s designation for the 8- 

hour ozone NAAQS. 69 FR 23951 (April 

30, 2004). The Kansas City Area was 

designated as an unclassifiable area for 

the 1997 8-hour ozone NAAQS, 

effective June 15, 2004. See id. 

However, on May 3, 2005, EPA 

published a final rule designating the 

Kansas City area as an attainment area 

for the 1997 8-hour ozone NAAQS 

based on new monitoring data. See 70 

FR 22801 (May 3, 2005). The effective 

date of the revocation of the 1979 1-hour 

ozone standard for the Kansas City area 

was June 15, 2005. See 70 FR 44470 

(August 3, 2005). Missouri achieved the 

required maintenance of the 1979 1- 

hour ozone standard in 2014. 

On September 15, 2020, Missouri 

requested that the EPA remove 10 CSR 

10–2.330 from the SIP. Section 110(l) of 

the CAA prohibits EPA from approving 

a SIP revision that interferes with any 

applicable requirement concerning 

attainment and reasonable further 

progress (RFP), or any other applicable 

requirement of the CAA. 

V. What is the EPA’s analysis of 

Missouri’s SIP request? 

EPA is making the preliminary 

determination that the ozone NAAQS is 

the primary focus for the 

noninterference demonstration required 

by section 110(l) of the CAA because the 

RVP requirements result primarily in 

emissions benefits for VOCs and NOX. 

VOCs and NOX emissions are precursors 

for ozone. NOX emissions are precursors 

for particulate matter. NO2 is a 

component of NOX. There are no 

emissions reductions attributable to the 

emissions of carbon monoxide (CO), 

lead and sulfur dioxide (SO2) from RVP 

requirements. 

In Missouri’s September 15, 2020 

submission the State provided a 

technical demonstration to support the 

request to remove Missouri’s 7.0 psi 

RVP requirement from the active 

measures portions of the Missouri SIP. 

In that technical demonstration, 

Missouri provided Motor Vehicle 

Emissions Simulator (MOVES) results,

8As vehicle owners purchase new vehicles, the 

older vehicles slowly are removed from the vehicles 

on the road. A used vehicle maybe purchased and 

driven by several owner, but eventually the older, 

more polluting vehicles are removed from the road. 

Manufactures’ fleets in 1994 are allowed 0.6 gram/ 

mile NOX emissions. Manufactures’ fleets in 2004 

are allowed 0.07 gram/mile Nox emissions. 

Manufactures’ fleets in 2025 will be allowed 0.03 

gram/mile NOX emissions.

10Based on the most recent quality assured data 

design values (2017–2019). 

modeling the emissions of VOCs and 

NOX associated with changing the high 

ozone season RVP requirements from 

the state-level requirement of 7.0 psi to 

the federal requirement of 9.0 psi. EPA 

evaluated the state’s assumptions and 

inputs used in MOVES, and EPA finds 

the state analysis is appropriate. 

Specifically, MDNR compared what the 

projected emissions in the year 2020 

(the year the program is requested to be 

rescinded) would be, assuming a RVP 

level of 7.0 psi and 9.0 psi, respectively, 

in two separate modeling simulations. 

The comparison revealed an increase in 

emissions of 0.17 tons for NOX and 0.71 

tons for VOC, per ozone season day, 

would result from the change to the 

federal requirement from June 1 through 

September 15. While the modeling 

showed a slight increase in NOX and 

VOC emissions resulting from the use of 

9.0 psi RVP as opposed to 7.0 psi, the 

most appropriate analysis is whether 

emissions in the future years would 

increase and potentially interfere with 

maintenance of the NAAQS. The State 

compared actual emissions from 2017 

using a RVP of 7.0 psi to emissions 

modelled for the years 2020 using a RVP 

of 9.0 psi. Table 1 below provides the 

results of this analysis. 

TABLE 1—COMPARATIVE EMISSIONS FOR CHANGE TO RVP 

2017 7.0 psi RVP 

(tons per ozone

VOC ..................................................................... 31.25 28.11 28.82 2.43 

As Table 1 indicates, NOX and VOC 

emissions in the Kansas City Area 

would decrease from 2017 to 2020, even 

with the increase due to ozone season 

fuel RVP of 9.0 psi. The modeling 

demonstration shows the slight increase 

in emissions is being mitigated areawide by a steady decrease in tailpipe 

emissions. This is the result of a cleaner 

new vehicle fleet replacing the older 

fleet 8 and the decrease in the sulfur 

content in gasoline as required by EPA’s 

Tier 3 motor vehicle emission and fuel 

standards, which were implemented 

beginning on January 1, 2017.9

The Kansas City, Missouri area is 

designated attainment/unclassifiable or 

attainment for the 1979, 1997, 2008, and 

2015 ozone standards. While the 1979 

maintenance plan is approved into the 

SIP, the 1979 NAAQS has been revoked 

for the Kansas City area. There are no 

other ozone maintenance plans for the 

Kansas City area in the SIP. The highest 

monitor design value in the Kansas City 

area is 68 parts per billion (ppb), which 

is below the 2015 ozone NAAQS of 70 

ppb.10 Based on the state’s modeling 

analysis, along with air quality data, 

EPA is making the preliminary 

determination that the slight increase in 

NOX and VOC emissions resulting from 

the use of 9.0 psi RVP fuel will not 

interfere with the Kansas City area’s 

ability to maintain the ozone NAAQS, 

or any other applicable requirement. 

The EPA is making this determination 

based on MOVES modeling that 

indicates that on-road VOC and NOX

emissions in 2020 with gasoline meeting 

the 9.0 psi RVP requirement remain 

below the emissions levels in 2017, a 

year in which the area’s design value 

was also below the 2015 ozone standard 

of 70 ppb. 

The Kansas City area is designated as 

attainment or unclassifiable for the 2006 

24-hour PM2.5, 2012 annual PM2.5, 1971 

annual NO2, and 2010 1-hour NO2

standards. There are no maintenance 

plans for any of these standards. The 

highest PM2.5 design value is 75% of the 

standard. The highest NO2 design value 

is 50% of the standard. As discussed 

above the area has a decrease from 2017 

to 2020 in NOX and VOC emissions. 

Based on this data together with air 

quality data, EPA is making the 

preliminary determination that the 

slight increase in NOX and VOC 

emissions in 2020 and the downward 

trend in on-road VOC and NOX

emissions resulting from this change 

will not interfere with the Area’s ability 

to maintain the any PM2.5 or NO2

NAAQS, or any other applicable 

requirement. 

The Platte and Clay Counties of the 

Kansas City area are designated as 

attainment or unclassifiable for the SO2

standards. Jackson county is designated 

as nonattainment. There are no 

maintenance plans for any of these 

standards. The most recent (2017–2019) 

highest SO2 design value is in Jackson 

County and is less than 15% of the 

standard. The RVP standard has no 

effect on SO2 emissions. Based on this 

data together with air quality data, EPA 

is making the preliminary determination 

that the change will not interfere with 

the Area’s ability to attain or maintain 

the SO2 NAAQS, or any other applicable 

requirement. 

The Kansas City area is designated as 

attainment or unclassifiable for the CO 

and lead standards. There are no 

maintenance plans for any of these 

standards. The highest CO design value 

is less than 20% of the standard. There 

is no lead monitoring in the area. The 

RVP standard has no effect on CO or 

lead emissions. Based on this data 

together with air quality data, EPA is 

making the preliminary determination 

that the change will not interfere with 

the area’s ability to maintain the CO or 

lead NAAQS, or any other applicable 

requirement. EPA is making the 

preliminary determination that the 

change will not interfere with 

reasonable progress towards natural 

visibility in Missouri’s Class 1 areas nor 

any Class 1 area in another state 

Missouri impacts. 

VI. What action is the EPA taking? 

We are proposing to approve 

Missouri’s removal of the state RVP 

requirement from the SIP for the Kansas 

City, Missouri area. As discussed above 

the removal of the RVP requirement will 

not affect the area’s ability to attain or 

maintain any air quality standard. 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. 

VII. Incorporation by Reference 

In this document, the EPA is 

proposing to amend regulatory text that 

includes incorporation by reference. As 

described in the proposed amendments 

to 40 CFR part 52 set forth below, the 

EPA is proposing to remove provisions 

of the EPA-Approved Missouri

83880 Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 247 / Wednesday, December 23, 2020 / Proposed Rules 

Regulations from the Missouri State 

Implementation Plan, which is 

incorporated by reference in accordance 

with the requirements of 1 CFR part 51. 

VIII. Statutory and Executive Order 

Reviews 

Under the Clean Air Act (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, the 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 Orders 12866 (58 FR 51735, 

October 4, 1993) and 13563 (76 FR 3821, 

January 21, 2011); 

• Is not an Executive Order 13771 (82 

FR 9339, February 2, 2017) regulatory 

action because SIP approvals are 

exempted under Executive Order 12866. 

• 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 the 

National Technology Transfer and 

Advancement Act (NTTA) because this 

rulemaking does not involve technical 

standards; 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).
