I. What action is EPA taking? II. What did Texas submit? III. EPA’s Evaluation IV. Final Action V. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews I. What action is EPA taking?

EPA is taking a direct final action to approve portions of two revisions to the Texas State Implementation Plan (SIP) concerning the Permits for Specific Designated Facilities Program, also referred to as the FutureGen Program. EPA has determined that the portions of these SIP revisions specific to the FutureGen Program submitted on March 9, 2006 and July 2, 2010, comply with the Clean Air Act and EPA regulations and are consistent with EPA policies. This action is being taken under section 110 and parts C and D of the Act.

We are publishing this rule without prior proposal because we view this as a noncontroversial amendment and anticipate no relevant adverse comments. As explained in this action and our accompanying technical support documents (TSD), we are finding this action noncontroversial because the FutureGen permitting and public notice provisions can no longer be used in Texas, but we are proceeding with a final action to fulfill our statutory obligations under the CAA. However, in the proposed rules section of this Federal Register publication, we are publishing a separate document that will serve as the proposal to approve the SIP revision if relevant adverse comments are received. This rule will be effective on January 21, 2014 without further notice unless we receive relevant adverse comment by December 23, 2013. If we receive relevant adverse comments, we will publish a timely withdrawal in the Federal Register informing the public that the rule will not take effect. We will address all public comments in a subsequent final rule based on the proposed rule. We will not institute a second comment period on this action. Any parties interested in commenting must do so now. Please note that if we receive adverse comment on an amendment, paragraph, or section of this rule and if that provision may be severed from the remainder of the rule, we may adopt as final those provisions of the rule that are not the subject of an adverse comment.

II. What did Texas submit?

FutureGen is a United States Department of Energy (DOE) program designed to promote the advancement and development of new technologies. FutureGen refers to a combination of technologies for carbon sequestration, carbon dioxide enhanced oil recovery, electric generation, and hydrogen production. FutureGen is a technology demonstration project that is a partnership between industry participants and the DOE.

The 79th Texas Legislature passed House Bill 2201 (HB 2201) in 2005, and concluded that the FutureGen technology demonstration project could result in major economic, social and environmental benefits for Texas. In order to help Texas compete for federal funding associated with the FutureGen Project, the Texas Legislature passed HB 2201 to provide for streamlined permitting by specifically exempting FutureGen projects from the contested case hearing process.
March 9, 2006 SIP Submittal

Pursuant to the directive of Texas HB 2201, on February 22, 2006, the TCEQ adopted the new provisions to Chapter 116 to establish streamlined permitting procedures and rules for the FutureGen Project. At the same time, the TCEQ also adopted public participation provisions for the FutureGen Project to provide for the exemption from contested case hearing. These new provisions were submitted to EPA as a SIP revision on March 9, 2006 by the Chairman of the TCEQ, Ms. Kathleen Hartnett White, as Rule Project No. 2005–053–091–PR. July 2, 2010 SIP Submittal

The TCEQ subsequently adopted revisions to the public notice provisions for the entirety of the Texas Air Permit program on June 2, 2010. The Chairman of the TCEQ, Mr. Bryan W. Shaw, Ph.D., submitted these revised public participation rules as a revision to the Texas SIP on July 2, 2010 as part of Rule


### 69775 Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 225 / Thursday, November 21, 2013 / Rules and Regulations

1 EPA proposed approval of revised public notice rules for Texas air permitting on December 13, 2012. See 77 FR 74129. Project No. 2010–004–039–LS. On this date, the TCEQ also withdrew the previous public notice SIP submittals, including the FutureGen specific public notice provisions submitted on March 9, 2006. Therefore, the public notice provisions specific to the FutureGen Program that remain before EPA for action were submitted on July 2, 2010.

The July 2, 2010 SIP submittal established the public participation provisions for the majority of the Texas air permitting programs, including applications for the FutureGen Program. On December 13, 2012, EPA proposed approval of most of the public participation rules submitted on July 2, 2010. See 77 FR 74129. However, in that proposed approval we severed and took no action on the portions of the public notice provisions establishing applicability and response to comment provisions specific to FutureGen Program applications at 30 TAC 39.402(a)(10), 39.419(e)(3) and 39.420(h). We deferred action on these provisions until such time as we evaluated the underlying permit provisions for the FutureGen Program at 30 TAC Chapter 116, Subchapter L. See 77 FR 74129. EPA is addressing the July 2, 2010, submittal of 30 TAC 39.402(a)(10), 39.419(e)(3) and 39.420(h) through today’s direct final action.

III. EPA’s Evaluation

We provide our evaluation for this rulemaking in this section. Additional information to support our evaluation is available in the TSDs for this rulemaking, which are available in the rulemaking docket.

Our evaluation shows that a FutureGen Project could be a PSD, NNSR or minor NSR source; therefore, we reviewed the program against the federal permitting and public noticerequirements and the existing SIPapproved provisions in Texas. The FutureGen permitting provisions require an applicant to demonstrate compliance with all requirements for PSD and NNSR permitting; which would require the FutureGen applicant to also comply with the public notice rules applicable to PSD and NNSR permitting. 1 Additionally, the FutureGen permitting provisions require an applicant to demonstrate protection of public health and welfare by complying with the Texas Health and Safety Code and all applicable rules and regulations of the TCEQ. Accordingly, we find that the FutureGen Program permitting and public notice rules as submitted March 9, 2006 and July 2, 2010 are consistent with the requirements of the CAA and EPA’s regulations, and protect the integrity of the Texas SIP.

Since the adoption of Texas HB 2201 and the adoption and submittal of the associated Texas SIP provisions, the FutureGen Project has been awarded to the State of Illinois. Additionally, the DOE decided to stop funding the FutureGen Project in 2008. On August 5, 2010, the DOE introduced FutureGen 2.0; a reinvention of the original FutureGen Project concept still planned for Illinois. Therefore, the submitted rules establishing the permitting and public notice rules for the FutureGen Project likely will not be used in Texas because the underlying FutureGen Project is not in existence in Texas.

EPA, however, has a statutory obligation to review and act upon SIP submittals pursuant to CAA 110(k). Because the State of Texas submitted the regulatory provisions for the FutureGen Project for approval into the Texas SIP, and has not subsequently requested to withdraw the program from our consideration, we are required to take action even though the program is superfluous to the SIP. Our authority under CAA 110(k)(4) does not provide us the ability to disapprove a program solely because it is no longer needed. Neither can we take steps to return the superfluous provisions to the state absent a direct request. Therefore, EPA must proceed with this proposed action to satisfy our obligations under the CAA.

IV. Final Action

Under section 110 and parts C and D of the Act, and for the reasons stated above, EPA is taking direct final action to approve revisions to the Texas SIP submitted on March 9, 2006 and July 2, 2010 for the Permits for Specific Designated Facilities Program, or the FutureGen Project, as consistent with the CAA and EPA’s policy and guidance. Specifically, EPA is approving the following new provisions establishing the FutureGen permitting requirements as submitted on March 9, 2006: 30 TAC 116.1400, 116.1402, 116.1404, 116.1406, 116.1408, 116.1410, 116.1414, 116.1416, 116.1418, 116.1420, 116.1422, 116.1424, 116.1426 and 116.1428. EPA is approving the newprovisions establishing the FutureGenspecific public notice provisions at 30 TAC 39.402(a)(10), 39.419(e)(3) and 39.420(h) as submitted on July 2, 2010. V. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

Under the Clean Air Act, 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 Clean Air Act. 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 Clean Air Act; 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 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


### 69776 Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 225 / Thursday, November 21, 2013 / Rules and Regulations

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 January 21, 2014. Filing a petition for reconsideration by the Administrator of this final rule does not affect the finality of this action for the purposed 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).) List of Subjects in 40 CFR Part 52
