II. Background
A. Summary of Statutory and Regulatory Requirements

Congress created a program for protecting visibility in the nation’s national parks and wilderness areas in section 169A of the 1977 Amendments to the CAA. This section of the CAA

When we use the term ‘‘Class I area’’ in this action, we mean a ‘‘mandatory Class I Federal area.’’

10 79 FR 52420 (September 3, 2014).

11 Letter from Eric Hiser, Jorden Bischoff & Hiser, to Regina McCarthy, EPA (October 31, 2014). 12 Letter from Jared Blumenfeld, EPA to Eric Hiser, Jorden Bischoff & Hiser (November 20, 2014). establishes as a national goal the ‘‘prevention of any future, and the remedying of any existing, impairment of visibility in mandatory Class I Federal areas which impairment results from man-made air pollution.’’ 2 It also directs states to evaluate the use of retrofit controls at certain larger, often uncontrolled, older stationary sources in order to address visibility impacts from these sources. Specifically, section 169A(b)(2)(A) of the CAA requires states to revise their State Implementation Plans (SIPs) to contain such measures as may be necessary to make reasonable progress towards the natural visibility goal, including a requirement that certain categories of existing major stationary sources built between 1962 and 1977 procure, install, and operate best available retrofit technology (BART) controls. These sources are referred to as ‘‘BART-eligible’’ sources. 3 In the 1990 CAA Amendments, Congress amended the visibility provisions in the CAA to focus attention on the problem of regional haze, which is visibility impairment produced by a multitude of sources and activities located across a broad geographic area. 4 We promulgated the Regional Haze Rule (RHR) in 1999, which requires states to develop and implement SIPs to ensure reasonable progress toward improving visibility in mandatory Class I Federal

areas 5 by reducing emissions that cause or contribute to regional haze. 6 Under the Regional Haze Rule (RHR), states are directed to conduct BART determinations for BART-eligible sources that may be anticipated to cause or contribute to any visibility impairment in a Class I area. 7 B. History of FIP BART Determination

The Arizona Department of Environmental Quality (ADEQ) submitted a Regional Haze SIP to EPA on February 28, 2011. EPA promulgated two final rules approving in part and disapproving in part the Arizona RH SIP. The first final rule addressed the State’s BART determinations for three power plants (Apache, Cholla, and Coronado). 8 The second final rule, which addressed the remaining elements of the Arizona RH SIP, included our disapproval of the State’s determination that the Nelson Lime Plant was not subject to BART. 9

In a third final rule, EPA found that the Nelson Lime Plant was subject to BART and made a BART determination for the plant, as part of the Arizona RH
FIP. 10 EPA set BART emission limits for
NO X at the Nelson Lime Plant of 3.80 lb/ ton of limestone product for Kiln 1 and 2.61 lb/ton of limestone product for Kiln 2 based on a 12-month rolling average; and a combined limit for Kilns 1 and 2 of 3.27 tons of NO X/day on a 30-day rolling average. These limits are consistent with the use of SNCR control technology and represent a 50 percent reduction from baseline emission rates. The FIP also included monitoring, recordkeeping, and reporting requirements, and established a compliance deadline for the final NO X emission limits of September 3, 2017, which is three years from the publication date of the final rule. Finally, we received certain comments alleging that an SNCR control efficiency of 50 percent was unsupported, and that SNCR was capable of achieving control efficiency as high as 80 percent. In responses to these comments in our final rule, we noted that the commenters were unable to provide information indicating that an SNCR control efficiency better than 50 percent was achievable at a lime kiln. As a result, our final rule established NO X emission limits consistent with an SNCR control efficiency of 50 percent. However, in response to these comments, as well as the lack of data regarding the performance of SNCR on lime kilns, the final rule included a series of control technology demonstration requirements for Kiln 1 and Kiln 2 to ensure the optimization of the SNCR systems installed at the Nelson Lime Plant.
C. Petition for Reconsideration and Stay

LNA submitted a petition to EPA on October 31, 2014, seeking administrative reconsideration and a partial stay of the final rule under CAA section 307(d)(7)(B). 11 Specifically, LNA requested that EPA eliminate the control technology demonstration requirements for the Nelson Lime Plant. In an attachment to the petition, LNA provided additional data regarding SNCR performance at lime kilns located at another LNA facility, the O’Neal Lime Plant in Calera, Alabama. In the petition, LNA also requested a stay if EPA did not take action prior to December 31, 2014. LNA requested a stay on the grounds that the control technology demonstration requirements would not provide sufficient time to meet the SO 2 and NO X BART emission limits. LNA asserted that the time needed to implement the demonstration requirements, in particular the requirement to collect six months of uncontrolled NO X emission data, would delay the critical path schedule for SNCR installation beyond the compliance date. EPA sent a letter to LNA on November 20, 2014, granting reconsideration of the optimization protocol requirements pursuant to CAA section 307(d)(7)(B). 12 Today’s notice of proposed rulemaking constitutes EPA’s proposed action on the reconsideration.

III. FIP Revision for Nelson Lime Plant
A. Summary of FIP Revision

This proposed rule consists of several components: removal of the control technology demonstration requirements, revised recordkeeping and reporting requirements, and an error correction to a table in our September 3, 2014, final rule. This proposed rule does not change any of the emission limits, compliance deadlines, or the compliance determination methods established in the final rule.
B. EPA’s Evaluation of Eliminating Control Technology Demonstration Requirements

EPA is proposing to remove the control technology demonstration requirements from the final rule based on information provided in LNA’s petition for reconsideration. In particular, in a letter dated October 2, 2014, and enclosed with the petition, LNA provided new data concerning operation of SNCR at another of its facilities, the O’Neal Lime Plant. The O’Neal Lime Plant originally consisted of Kiln 1, but was later expanded through the construction of Kiln 2. In order for the construction of Kiln 2 not to trigger major new source review for NO X emissions, LNA elected to install SNCR on both Kilns 1 and 2 to maintain NO X emissions below thresholds for major new source review. LNA provided information comparing the physical design of the two kilns at the O’Neal Lime Plant with the two kilns at the Nelson Lime Plant. LNA indicated that although the two O’Neal kilns are not identical to the Nelson kilns, O’Neal Kiln 1 is more similar in design to the Nelson kilns than O’Neal Kiln 2. We consider this comparison reasonable. Of


### 1611 Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 8 / Tuesday, January 13, 2015 / Proposed Rules

13 This is common with older lime and cement plants, and is similar to the situation at the Nelson plant, which does not currently operate NO X CEMS.

14 79 FR 52439.

15 For comparison, we have examined the maximum 24-hr average, 30-day average, and annual average emissions for Kiln 4 at the Phoenix Cement Plant (see spreadsheet ‘‘Phoenix Cement Kiln 4 NO X Emissions 2005–10 (public).xlsx.’’ The Phoenix Cement Kiln 4 data illustrate the substantial variability in emission rates from acement kiln when examining emissions on shortterm versus longer-term averaging periods. Given the similarity between lime kilns and cement kilns, we expect similar variability in the short-term versus longer-term emission rates from lime kilns. 16 CAA Section 110(l), 42 U.S.C. 7410(l). the two O’Neal kilns, Kiln 1 is closer in age, physical dimensions, lime production rate, and fuel efficiency to the Nelson kilns than Kiln 2.

The remainder of the October 2, 2014, letter summarizes NO X emission data from specific days of operation at O’Neal Kiln 1 to evaluate the SNCR control efficiency of the kiln. Evaluating the control efficiency involves comparing uncontrolled emission rates with controlled emission rates from Kiln 1. However, uncontrolled NO X emission data for the O’Neal plant are limited, because the facility did not operate with a continuous emission monitoring system (CEMS) for NO X prior to installing SNCR. 13 As a result, uncontrolled NO X emission data are limited to those periods of time following SNCR installation during which the SNCR system did not operate. LNA provided emission data from six days during which the SNCR did not operate to represent uncontrolled NO X emission rates. NO X emission data from those periods corresponding to hours of SNCR operation were also included as a representation of controlled NO X emission rates. Based on this analysis, the SNCR control efficiency of O’Neal Kiln 1 varied from 42 to 61 percent.

This range of control efficiency represents SNCR performance over relatively short-term periods of less than 24 hours. For example, the highest observed control efficiency (61 percent) corresponds to a period ending on December 1, 2011, and consists of a comparison of six hours of uncontrolled emissions with eight hours of controlled emissions. As noted in the final rule in regard to control efficiencies for dry sorbent injection, we do not consider the upper range of short-term control efficiencies necessarily to be sustainable over longer periods, such as on an annual average basis. 14 Therefore, while the emission data provided by LNA indicate that a 61 percent SNCR control efficiency was achievable over short term periods (lasting several hours), we do not necessarily consider 61 percent control efficiency to be achievable over longer averaging periods, such as an annual average or 30-day average. For cement kilns, a source category similar to lime kilns, the highest short-term emission rates can be as much as 25–50 percent greater than the highest annual average or 30-day average emission

rates. 15 As a result, given the short-term nature of the emission data indicating a maximum 61 percent SNCR control efficiency, we consider the use of a 50 percent control efficiency on a longer annual average basis to be reasonable for the Nelson kilns.

Accordingly, we propose to find that the data from the O’Neal kilns are sufficient to establish that an SNCR control efficiency of 50 percent is appropriate for the Nelson kilns for purposes of BART. While we still consider it necessary to ensure that the SNCR system be optimized, we do not consider it necessary for LNA to adhere to the relatively detailed and prescribed procedures contained in the control technology demonstration requirements. Therefore, we are proposing to remove the control technology demonstration requirements included in the final rule, and, as described below, are proposing requirements that will require LNA to report similar information in a less prescribed manner.
C. Revised Recordkeeping and Reporting Requirements

We are proposing several additional reporting and recordkeeping requirements, including a summary of SNCR design and a summary of SNCR debugging and process improvement activities, to replace the control technology demonstration requirements in the FIP for Nelson Lime Plant. As described in III.B above, we consider it necessary to include provisions for SNCR optimization. Given the NO X emission data provided by LNA from the O’Neal Plant indicating that 50 percent SNCR control efficiency has been achieved at a lime kiln, we do not consider it necessary for optimization measures to be as prescriptive and detailed as established in our September 4, 2014, final rule. Specifically, we propose to require LNA to submit a summary of the SNCR design prior to commencing construction of the ammonia injection system at Kilns 1 and 2, including information regarding reagent type, locations selected for reagent injection, reagent injection rate, equipment arrangement, and kiln characteristics. We also propose to require LNA to submit a summary of SNCR debugging and process improvement activities, including a description of each process adjustment performed on the SNCR system, a discussion of whether the adjustment affected the NO X emission rate, a description of the range over which the adjustment was examined, and a discussion of how the adjustment will be reflected or accounted for in kiln operating practices.

D. Error Correction

We are proposing a minor correction to a table printed in our September 3, 2014, final rule at 79 FR 52480. The table, which is codified at 40 CFR 52.145(i)(3)(i) and lists NO X and SO 2 limits for the Nelson Plant Kilns, appears with incorrect column labels due to a misprint in the Federal Register . The table appears with the correct labels in the proposed regulatory text that follows this proposed rule.
E. Non-interference With Applicable Requirements

The CAA requires that any revision to an implementation plan shall not be approved by the Administrator if the revision would interfere with any applicable requirement concerning attainment and reasonable further progress or any other applicable requirement of the CAA. 16 Today’s proposed revisions would not affect any applicable requirements of the CAA because they would not alter the amount or timing of emission reductions from the Nelson Lime Plant. In particular, the proposed replacement of the control technology demonstration requirements with a series of recordkeeping and reporting requirements would not alter any of the applicable emission limitations, compliance determination methodologies, or compliance deadlines. Therefore, we propose to find that these revisions would comply with CAA section 110(l).
IV. EPA’s Proposed Action

For the reasons described above, EPA proposes to revise the Arizona Regional Haze FIP to eliminate the control technology demonstration requirements at the Nelson Lime Plant and replace them with additional recordkeeping and reporting requirements. This revision would constitute our action on LNA’s Petition for Reconsideration of the FIP.


### 1612 Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 8 / Tuesday, January 13, 2015 / Proposed Rules

17 http://www.LNA.com/facts-and-figures-LNAgroup-2013. V. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
A. Executive Order 12866: Regulatory Planning and Review and Executive Order 13563: Improving Regulation and Regulatory Review

This proposed action is not a ‘‘significant regulatory action’’ under the terms of Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993) and is therefore not subject to review under Executive Orders 12866 and 13563 (76 FR 3821, January 21, 2011). This proposed rule applies to only one facility and is therefore not a rule of general applicability.
B. Paperwork Reduction Act

This action does not impose an information collection burden under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act, 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq. Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
C. Regulatory Flexibility Act

The Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA) generally requires an agency to prepare a regulatory flexibility analysis of any rule subject to notice and comment rulemaking requirements under the Administrative Procedure Act or any other statute unless the agency certifies that the rule will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. Small entities include small businesses, small organizations, and small governmental jurisdictions.

For purposes of assessing the impacts of today’s proposed rule on small entities, small entity is defined as: (1) A small business as defined by the Small Business Administration’s (SBA) regulations at 13 CFR 121.201; (2) a small governmental jurisdiction that is a government of a city, county, town, school district or special district with a population of less than 50,000; and (3)a small organization that is any not-forprofit enterprise which is independently owned and operated and is not dominant in its field. Pursuant to 13 CFR 121.201, footnote 1, a firm is small if it is in NAICS 327410 (lime manufacturing) and the concern and its affiliates have no more than 500 employees. LNA is affiliated with the LNA Group, which has more than 5,500 employees. 17 Therefore, LNA is not a small business.
D. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA)

Title II of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (UMRA), 2 U.S.C. 1531–1538, requires Federal agencies, unless otherwise prohibited by law, to assess the effects of their regulatory actions on State, local, and tribal governments and the private sector. Federal agencies must also develop a plan to provide notice to small governments that might be significantly or uniquely affected by any regulatory requirements. The plan must enable officials of affected small governments to have meaningful and timely input in the development of EPA regulatory proposals with significant Federal intergovernmental mandates and must inform, educate, and advise small governments on compliance with the regulatory requirements.

This proposed rule does not contain a Federal mandate that may result in expenditures of $100 million or more for state, local, and tribal governments, in the aggregate, or the private sector in any one year. Thus, this rule is not subject to the requirements of sections 202 or 205 of UMRA.

This proposed rule is also not subject to the requirements of section 203 of UMRA because it contains no regulatory requirements that might significantly or uniquely affect small governments. This proposed rule does not impose regulatory requirements on any government entity.

E. Executive Order 13132: Federalism

This action does not have federalism implications. It will not have substantial direct effects on the states, on the relationship between the national government and the states, or in the distribution of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government, as specified in Executive Order 13132.

In the spirit of Executive Order 13132, and consistent with EPA policy to promote communications between EPA and State and local governments, EPA specifically solicits comment on this proposed action from State and local officials.

F. Executive Order 13175: Consultation and Coordination With Indian Tribal
Governments

Under Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000), EPA may not issue a regulation that has tribal implications, that imposes substantial direct compliance costs, and that is not required by statute, unless the federal government provides the funds necessary to pay the direct compliance costs incurred by tribal governments, or EPA consults with tribal officials early in the process of developing the proposed regulation and develops a tribal summary impact statement. This proposed rule does not have tribal implications, as specified in Executive Order 13175. It will not have substantial direct effects on tribal governments. Thus, Executive Order 13175 does not apply to this rule. EPA specifically solicits additional comment on this proposed rule from tribal officials.
G. Executive Order 13045: Protection of Children From Environmental Health Risks and Safety Risks

EPA interprets EO 13045 (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997) as applying only to those regulatory actions that concern health or safety risks, such that the analysis required under section 5–501 of the EO has the potential to influence the regulation. This action is not subject to EO 13045 because it does not establish an environmental standard intended to mitigate health or safety risks. This proposed action addresses regional haze and visibility protection.

H. Executive Order 13211: Actions Concerning Regulations That Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use

This action is not subject to Executive Order 13211 (66 FR 28355 (May 22, 2001)), because it is exempt under Executive Order 12866.
I. National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act

Section 12(d) of the National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (NTTAA), Public Law 104– 113, 12 (10) (15 U.S.C. 272 note) directs EPA to use voluntary consensus standards (VCS) in its regulatory activities unless to do so would be inconsistent with applicable law or otherwise impractical. VCS are technical standards ( e.g., materials specifications, test methods, sampling procedures, and business practices) that are developed or adopted by the VCS bodies. The NTTAA directs EPA to provide Congress, through annual reports to OMB, with explanations when the Agency decides not to use available and applicable VCS.

EPA believes that VCS are inapplicable to this action. Today’s action does not require the public to perform activities conducive to the use of VCS.
J. Executive Order 12898: Federal Actions To Address Environmental Justice in Minority Populations and Low-Income Populations

Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994), establishes federal executive policy on environmental justice. Its main provision directs


### 1613 Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 8 / Tuesday, January 13, 2015 / Proposed Rules

federal agencies, to the greatest extent practicable and permitted by law, to make environmental justice part of their mission by identifying and addressing, as appropriate, disproportionately high and adverse human health or environmental effects of their programs, policies, and activities on minority populations and low- income populations in the United States.

EPA has determined that this proposed rule will not have disproportionately high and adverse human health or environmental effects on minority or low-income populations because it does not change the level of environmental protection for any affected populations.
