19252 Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 71 / Wednesday, April 14, 2010 / Rules and Regulations 

Civil Justice Reform 

This rule meets applicable standards 

in sections 3(a) and 3(b)(2) of Executive 

Order 12988, Civil Justice Reform, to 

minimize litigation, eliminate 

ambiguity, and reduce burden. 

Protection of Children 

We have analyzed this rule under 

Executive Order 13045, Protection of 

Children from Environmental Health 

Risks and Safety Risks. This rule is not 

an economically significant rule and 

does not create an environmental risk to 

health or risk to safety that may 

disproportionately affect children. 

Indian Tribal Governments 

This rule does not have tribal 

implications under Executive Order 

13175, Consultation and Coordination 

with Indian Tribal Governments, 

because it does 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. 

Energy Effects 

We have analyzed this rule under 

Executive Order 13211, Actions 

Concerning Regulations That 

Significantly Affect Energy Supply, 

Distribution, or Use. We have 

determined that it is not a ‘‘significant 

energy action’’ under that order because 

it is not a ‘‘significant regulatory action’’ 

under Executive Order 12866 and is not 

likely to have a significant adverse effect 

on the supply, distribution, or use of 

energy. The Administrator of the Office 

of Information and Regulatory Affairs 

has not designated it as a significant 

energy action. Therefore, it does not 

require a Statement of Energy Effects 

under Executive Order 13211. 

Technical Standards 

The National Technology Transfer 

and Advancement Act (NTTAA) (15 

U.S.C. 272 note) directs agencies to use 

voluntary consensus standards in their 

regulatory activities unless the agency 

provides Congress, through the Office of 

Management and Budget, with an 

explanation of why using these 

standards would be inconsistent with 

applicable law or otherwise impractical. 

Voluntary consensus standards are 

technical standards (e.g., specifications 

of materials, performance, design, or 

operation; test methods; sampling 

procedures; and related management 

systems practices) that are developed or 

adopted by voluntary consensus 

standards bodies. 

This rule does not use technical 

standards. Therefore, we did not 

consider the use of voluntary consensus 

standards. 

Environment 

We have analyzed this rule under 

Department of Homeland Security 

Management Directive 5100.1 and 

Commandant Instruction M16475.lD, 

which guide the Coast Guard in 

complying with the National 

Environmental Policy Act of 1969 

(NEPA) (42 U.S.C. 4321–4370f), and 

have concluded this action is one of a 

category of actions which do not 

individually or cumulatively have a 

significant effect on the human 

environment. This rule is categorically 

excluded, under figure 2–1, paragraph 

(34)(g), of the Instruction. This rule 

involves the establishment of a safety 

zone. 

An environmental analysis checklist 

and a categorical exclusion 

determination are available in the 

docket where indicated under 

ADDRESSES.

I. What Does This Action Do? 

EPA is providing notice that it is 

delegating authority for implementation 

and enforcement of certain NSPS to 

LDEQ. EPA is also taking direct final 

action to approve the delegation of 

certain NESHAPs to LDEQ. With these 

delegations, LDEQ will have the 

primary responsibility to implement 

and enforce the delegated standards 

under NSPS and NESHAPs. 

II. What Is the Authority for 

Delegation? 

Section 111(c)(1) of the Clean Air Act 

(CAA) authorizes EPA to delegate 

authority to any State agency which 

submits adequate regulatory procedures 

for implementation and enforcement of 

the NSPS program. The NSPS standards 

are codified at 40 CFR part 60. 

Section 112(l) of the CAA and 40 CFR 

part 63, subpart E, authorizes EPA to 

delegate authority to any State or local 

agency which submits adequate 

regulatory procedures for 

implementation and enforcement of 

emission standards for hazardous air 

pollutants. The hazardous air pollutant 

standards are codified at 40 CFR parts 

61 and 63. 

III. What Criteria Must Louisiana’s 

Program Meet To Be Approved? 

EPA previously approved LDEQ’s 

program for the delegation of NSPS 

February 22, 1982 (47 FR 07665). The 

delegation was most recently updated 

on March 26, 2004 (59 FR 15687). This 

action notifies the public that EPA is 

updating LDEQ’s delegation to 

implement and enforce certain 

additional NSPS. The CAA, as 

amended, requires under section 111 

that performance standards be set for 

source categories which in the judgment 

of the Administrator cause or contribute 

significantly to air pollution. The CAA 

precisely states that the States should 

have primary authority for 

implementing the NSPS program. 

EPA will approve an air toxics 

program if we find that: 


jlentini on DSKJ8SOYB1PROD with RULES
19254 Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 71 / Wednesday, April 14, 2010 / Rules and Regulations 

(1) The State program is ‘‘no less 

stringent’’ than the corresponding 

Federal program or rule; 

(2) the State has adequate authority 

and resources to implement the 

program; 

(3) the schedule for implementation 

and compliance is sufficiently 

expeditious; and 

(4) the program otherwise complies 

with Federal guidance. 

In order to obtain approval of its 

program to implement and enforce 

Federal section 112 rules as 

promulgated without changes (straight 

delegation), only the criteria of 40 CFR 

63.91(d) must be met. 40 CFR 

63.91(d)(3) provides that interim or final 

Title V program approval will satisfy the 

criteria of 40 CFR 63.91(d) for part 70 

sources. Louisiana received its Title V 

approval on September 12, 1995 (60 FR 

47296), effective October 12, 1995. 

IV. What Is Being Delegated? 

On August 14, 2009, EPA received a 

delegation request update for NSPS and 

NESHAP rules added to the CFR as of 

July 1, 2008, and certain rules issued 

after July 2008. The most recent update 

to NESHAP Delegation to be approved 

was approved and covered NESHAP 

regulations issued through July 1, 2004. 

The last update to the NSPS delegation 

to be approved was approved on March 

26, 2004 and covered NSPS regulations 

that had been issued through July 1, 

2002. With the exceptions noted below, 

the LDEQ’s rules incorporate by 

reference (IBR) the corresponding 

Federal regulations in 40 CFR parts 60, 

61 and 63, into the Air Quality 

regulations, which are applicable in 

Louisiana that have been adopted 

through July 1, 2008. The Louisiana 

rules also incorporate by reference 

certain amendments to NSPS rules that 

were adopted after July 1, 2008. These 

are 40 CFR part 60, Stay of effective date 

of subpart Ja (73 FR 43626), 

amendments to subpart JJJJ (73 FR 

59175), and amendments to subparts D, 

Da, Db, and Dc (74 FR 5072). The 

Louisiana rules also IBR certain 

amendments to part 63 that were 

promulgated after July 1, 2008. These 

are 40 CFR part 63 withdrawal of and 

revision to subpart M (73 FR 39871), 

partial withdrawal of direct final rule 

and amendments to subpart EEEE (73 

FR 40977), amendments to subpart 

BBBBB (73 FR 42529), subpart XXXXXX 

(73 FR 43000), and subpart YYYYYY 

(73 FR 78637). 

40 CFR part 61 delegations remain 

unchanged from the previous delegation 

update which was effective May 25, 

2004. LDEQ’s request for delegation of 

certain NSPS and NESHAP is for all 

sources (both part 70 and non-part 70 

sources). The request includes revisions 

of the NESHAP standards adopted 

unchanged into Louisiana 

Administrative Code (LAC) Title 33:III, 

Chapter 30, Subchapter A, Section 

3003—Incorporation by Reference 40 

CFR part 60; Chapter 51, Subchapter B, 

Section 5116—Incorporation by 

Reference of 40 CFR part 61; Chapter 51, 

Subchapter C, Section 5122— 

Incorporation by Reference of 40 CFR 

part 63 as it Applies to Major Sources, 

except for the compliance date 

established in Subpart S—Pulp and 

Paper Industry at 40 CFR 63.440(d)(1); 

and Chapter 53, Subchapter B, Section 

5311—Incorporation by Reference of 40 

CFR part 63 as it Applies to Area 

Sources. For NSPS, this revision 

incorporated all NSPS promulgated by 

EPA (except Subpart AAA—Standards 

of Performance for New Residential 

Wood Heaters) as amended in the 

Federal Register through July 1, 2002. 

For the part 61 NESHAPs, this revision 

included all NESHAPs promulgated by 

EPA as amended in the Federal Register 

through July 1, 2002, excluding subparts 

B, H, I, K, Q, R, T, and W. For the part 

63 NESHAPs, this includes the 

NESHAPs set forth in the table at end 

of this Federal Register action titled 

‘‘CAA Program Delegation Status for 

Louisiana.’’ The effective date of the 

Federal delegation for parts 61 and 63 

standards is the effective date of this 

rule. 

Also the delegation of, subpart EEEE, 

Standards of Performance for Other 

Solid Waste Incineration Units (OSWI) 

that Commenced Construction on or 

before December 9, 2004, promulgated 

on December 16, 2005 (70 FR 74870), 

remains unchanged as does the LDEQ’s 

plan for emission guidelines and 

compliance times for OSWI units that 

commenced construction on or before 

December 9, 2004, subpart FFFF, 40 

CFR 60.2980–60.3078 and tables 1–5, 70 

FR 74870 (December 16, 2005). Until the 

LDEQ has a mechanism to approve 

training programs in compliance with 

40 CFR 60.3014, the LDEQ shall except 

accreditation approved by other States 

complying with 40 CFR 60.3014. The 

IBR emission guidelines of 40 CFR part 

60, and amendments to 40 CFR part 60, 

are applied to applicable units in the 

State. 

V. What Is Not Being Delegated? 

The following part 60, 61 and 63 

authorities listed below are not 

delegated. All of the inquiries and 

requests concerning implementation 

and enforcement of the excluded 

standards in the State of Louisiana 

should be directed to the EPA Region 6 

Office. 

• 40 CFR part 60, subpart AAA 

(Standards of Performance for New 

Residential Wood Heaters); 

• 40 CFR part 60, subpart B, 

Adoption and Submittal of State Plans 

for Designated Facilities and 40 CFR 

part 60, subpart C, Emission Guidelines 

and Compliance Times, are not 

included; 

• 40 CFR part 61, subpart B (National 

Emission Standards for Radon 

Emissions from Underground Uranium 

Mines); 

• 40 CFR part 61, subpart H (National 

Emission Standards for Emissions of 

Radionuclides Other Than Radon From 

Department of Energy Facilities); 

• 40 CFR part 61, subpart I (National 

Emission Standards for Radionuclide 

Emissions from Federal Facilities Other 

Than Nuclear Regulatory Commission 

Licensees and Not Covered by Subpart 

H); 

• 40 CFR part 61, subpart K (National 

Emission Standards for Radionuclide 

Emissions from Elemental Phosphorus 

Plants); 

• 40 CFR part 61, subpart Q (National 

Emission Standards for Radon 

Emissions from Department of Energy 

facilities); 

• 40 CFR part 61, subpart R (National 

Emission Standards for Radon 

Emissions from Phosphogypsum 

Stacks); 

• 40 CFR part 61, subpart T (National 

Emission Standards for Radon 

Emissions from the Disposal of Uranium 

Mill Tailings); and 

• 40 CFR part 61, subpart W (National 

Emission Standards for Radon 

Emissions from Operating Mill 

Tailings). 

In addition, EPA cannot delegate to a 

State any of the Category II Subpart A 

authorities set forth in 40 CFR 

63.91(g)(2). These include the following 

provisions: § 63.6(g), Approval of 

Alternative Non-Opacity Standards; 

§ 63.6(h)(9), Approval of Alternative 

Opacity Standards; § 63.7(e)(2)(ii) and 

(f), Approval of Major Alternatives to 

Test Methods; § 63.8(f), Approval of 

Major Alternatives to Monitoring; and 

§ 63.10(f), Approval of Major 

Alternatives to Recordkeeping and 

Reporting. In addition, some MACT 

standards have certain provisions that 

cannot be delegated to the States (e.g. 40 

CFR 63.106(b)). Therefore, any MACT 

standard that EPA is delegating to 

LDEQ, that provides that certain 

authorities cannot be delegated, are 

retained by EPA and not delegated. 

Furthermore, no authorities are 

delegated that require rulemaking in the 

Federal Register to implement, or where 


jlentini on DSKJ8SOYB1PROD with RULES
Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 71 / Wednesday, April 14, 2010 / Rules and Regulations 19255 

Federal overview is the only way to 

ensure national consistency in the 

application of the standards or 

requirements of CAA section 112. 

Finally, section 112(r), the accidental 

release program authority, is not being 

delegated by this approval. 

40 CFR 63, subpart D, Compliance 

Extensions for Early Reductions of 

Hazardous Air Pollutants (HAPs), 

Subpart E, Approval of State Programs 

and Delegation of Federal Authorities 

and Subpart J, National Emission 

Standards for HAPs for Polyvinyl 

Chloride and Copolymers Production, 

are not included. 

In addition, this delegation to LDEQ 

to implement and enforce certain NSPS 

and NESHAPs does not extend to 

sources or activities located in Indian 

country, as defined in 18 U.S.C. 1151. 

Under this definition, EPA treats as 

reservations, trust lands validly set 

aside for the use of a Tribe even if the 

trust lands have not been formally 

designated as a reservation. Consistent 

with previous federal program 

approvals or delegations, EPA will 

continue to implement the NSPS and 

NESHAPs in Indian country because 

LDEQ has not adequately demonstrated 

its authority over sources and activities 

located within the exterior boundaries 

of Indian reservations and other areas in 

Indian country. 

VI. How Will Applicability 

Determinations Under Section 112 Be 

Made? 

In approving this delegation, LDEQ 

will obtain concurrence from EPA on 

any matter involving the interpretation 

of section 112 of the CAA or 40 CFR 

part 63 to the extent that 

implementation, administration or 

enforcement of these sections have not 

been covered by EPA determinations or 

guidance. 

VII. What Authority Does EPA Have? 

We retain the right, as provided by 

CAA section 112(l)(7), to enforce any 

applicable emission standard or 

requirement under section 112. EPA 

also has the authority to make certain 

decisions under the General Provisions 

(subpart A) of part 63. We are granting 

LDEQ some of these authorities, and 

retaining others, as explained in 

sections IV and V above. In addition, 

EPA may review and disapprove of 

State determinations and subsequently 

require revisions. (See 40 CFR 63.91 and 

65 FR 55837, September 14, 2000, as 

amended at 70 FR 59887, October 13, 

2005; 72 FR 27443, May 16, 2007.) 

Furthermore, we retain any authority 

in an individual emission standard that 

may not be delegated according to 

provisions of the standard. 

VIII. What Information Must LDEQ 

Provide to EPA? 

Under 40 CFR 60.4(b), all 

notifications under NSPS must be sent 

to both EPA and to LDEQ. Please send 

notifications and reports to Chief, Air 

Enforcement Surveillance Branch at the 

EPA Region 6 office. 

In delegating the authority to 

implement and enforce these rules and 

in granting a waiver of EPA notification 

requirements, we require LDEQ to input 

all source information into the 

Aerometric Information Retrieval 

System (AIRS) for both point and area 

sources. LDEQ must enter this 

information into the AIRS system and 

update the information by September 30 

of every year. LDEQ must provide any 

additional compliance related 

information to the EPA Region 6 Office 

of Enforcement and Compliance 

Assurance within 45 days of a request 

under 40 CFR 63.96(a). In receiving 

delegation for specific General 

Provisions authorities, LDEQ must 

submit to EPA Region 6 on a semiannual basis, copies of determinations 

issued under these authorities. For part 

63 standards, these determinations 

include: applicability determinations 

(§ 63.1); approval/disapprovals of 

construction and reconstruction 

(§ 63.5(e) and (f)); notifications 

regarding the use of a continuous 

opacity monitoring system 

(§ 63.6(h)(7)(ii)); finding of compliance 

(§ 63.6(h)(8)); approval/disapprovals of 

compliance extensions (§ 63.6(i)); 

approvals/disapprovals of minor 

(§ 63.7(e)(2)(i)) or intermediate 

(§ 63.7(e)(2)(ii)) alternative (§ 63.7(f)) 

test methods; approval of shorter 

sampling times and volumes 

(§ 63.7(e)(2)(iii)); waiver of performance 

testing (§ 63.7(e)(2)(iv) and (h)(2), (3)); 

approvals/disapprovals of minor or

methods (§ 63.8(f)); approval of 

adjustments to time periods for 

submitting reports (§ 63.9 and 63.10); 

and approvals/disapprovals of minor 

alternatives to recordkeeping and 

reporting (§ 63.10(f)). 

Additionally, EPA’s Emissions, 

Monitoring, and Analysis Division must 

receive copies of any approved 

intermediate changes to test methods or 

monitoring. (Please note that 

intermediate changes to test methods 

must be demonstrated as equivalent 

through the procedures set out in EPA 

method 301.) This information on 

approved intermediate changes to test 

methods and monitoring will be used to 

compile a database of decisions that will 

be accessible to State and local agencies 

and EPA Regions for reference in 

making future decisions. (For 

definitions of major, intermediate and 

minor alternative test methods or 

monitoring methods, see 40 CFR 63.90). 

The LDEQ should forward these 

intermediate test methods or monitoring 

changes via mail or facsimile to: Chief, 

Air Measurements and Quality Group, 

Emissions Monitoring and Analysis 

Division, Office of Air Quality Planning 

and Standards, Mail Code D205–02, 

Research Triangle Park, NC 27711, 

Facsimile telephone number: (919) 541– 

0516. 

IX. What Is EPA’s Oversight of This 

Delegation to LDEQ? 

EPA must oversee LDEQ’s decisions 

to ensure the delegated authorities are 

being adequately implemented and 

enforced. We will integrate oversight of 

the delegated authorities into the 

existing mechanisms and resources for 

oversight currently in place. If, during 

oversight, we determine that LDEQ 

made decisions that decreased the 

stringency of the delegated standards, 

then LDEQ shall be required to take 

corrective actions and the source(s) 

affected by the decisions will be 

notified, as required by 40 CFR 

63.91(g)(1)(ii). We will initiate 

withdrawal of the program or rule if the 

corrective actions taken are insufficient. 

X. Should Sources Submit Notices to 

EPA or LDEQ? 

For the NESHAPS being delegated, all 

of the information required pursuant to 

the general provisions and the relevant 

subpart of the Federal NESHAP (40 CFR 

part 63) should be submitted by sources 

located outside of Indian country, 

directly to the LDEQ at the following 

address: Louisiana Department of 

Environmental Quality, 602 N. Fifth 

Street, Baton Rouge, Louisiana 70802. 

The LDEQ is the primary point of 

contact with respect to delegated 

NESHAPs. Sources do not need to send 

a copy to EPA. EPA Region 6 waives the 

requirement that notifications and 

reports for delegated standards be 

submitted to EPA in addition to LDEQ 

in accordance with 40 CFR 63.9(a)(4)(ii) 

and 63.10(a)(4)(ii). For those standards 

that are not delegated, sources must 

continue to submit all appropriate 

information to EPA. 

XI. How Will Unchanged Authorities Be 

Delegated to LDEQ in the Future? 

In the future, LDEQ will only need to 

send a letter of request to EPA, Region 

6, for NESHAP regulations that LDEQ 

has adopted by reference. The letter 

must reference the previous up-front 


jlentini on DSKJ8SOYB1PROD with RULES
19256 Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 71 / Wednesday, April 14, 2010 / Rules and Regulations 

approval demonstration and reaffirm 

that it still meets the up-front approval 

criteria. We will respond in writing to 

the request stating that the request for 

delegation is either granted or denied. A 

Federal Register action will be 

published to inform the public and 

affected sources of the delegation, 

indicate where source notifications and 

reports should be sent, and to amend 

the relevant portions of the Code of 

Federal Regulations showing which 

NESHAP standards have been delegated 

to LDEQ. 

XII. Final Action 

The public was provided the 

opportunity to comment on the 

proposed approval of the program and 

mechanism for delegation of section 112 

standards, as they apply to part 70 

sources, August 24, 1994, for the 

proposed interim approval of LDEQ’s 

Title V operating permits program; and 

on April 7, 1995, for the proposed final 

approval of LDEQ’s Title V operating 

permits program. In EPA’s final full 

approval of Louisiana’s Operating 

Permits Program (60 FR 47296), the EPA 

discussed the public comments on the 

proposed final delegation of the Title V 

operating permits program. In today’s 

action, the public is given the 

opportunity to comment on the 

approval of LDEQ’s request for 

delegation of authority to implement 

and enforce certain section 112 

standards for all sources (both part 70 

and non-part 70 sources) which have 

been adopted by reference Louisiana’s 

state regulations. However, the Agency 

views the approval of these requests as 

a noncontroversial action and 

anticipates no adverse comments. 

Therefore, EPA is publishing this rule 

without prior proposal. 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 approve the 

program and delegation of authority 

described in this action if adverse 

comments are received. This action will 

be effective June 14, 2010 without 

further notice unless the Agency 

receives relevant adverse comments by 

May 14, 2010. 

If EPA receives relevant adverse 

comments, we will publish a timely 

withdrawal in the Federal Register 

informing the public the rule will not 

take effect. We 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 we receive 

relevant 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 a 

relevant adverse comment. 

XIII. 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 

(59 FR 22951, 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 request to receive 

delegation of certain Federal standards, 

and does not alter the relationship or 

the distribution of power and 

responsibilities established in the Clean 

Air Act. 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 delegation submissions, 

EPA’s role is to approve submissions 

provided that they meet the criteria of 

the Clean Air Act. 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 delegation submission 

for failure to use VCS. It would thus be 

inconsistent with applicable law for 

EPA to use VCS in place of a delegation 

submission that otherwise satisfies the 

provisions of the Clean Air Act. 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 

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 June 14, 2010. 

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 section 

307(b)(2).)
