31262 Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 102 / Friday, May 25, 2012 / Proposed Rules 

Executive Order 13132, EPA may not 

issue a regulation that has Federalism 

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 state and local 

governments, or EPA consults with state 

and local officials early in the process 

of developing the proposed regulation. 

EPA also may not issue a regulation that 

has Federalism implications and that 

preempts state law unless the Agency 

consults with state and local officials 

early in the process of developing the 

proposed regulation. 

This rule will 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, because it 

merely approves a state rule 

implementing a federal standard, and 

does not alter the relationship or the 

distribution of power and 

responsibilities established in the CAA. 

Thus, the requirements of section 6 of 

the Executive Order do not apply to this 

rule. 

F. Executive Order 13175, Coordination 

With Indian Tribal Governments 

Executive Order 13175, entitled 

‘‘Consultation and Coordination with 

Indian Tribal Governments’’ (65 FR 

67249, November 9, 2000), requires EPA 

to develop an accountable process to 

ensure ‘‘meaningful and timely input by 

tribal officials in the development of 

regulatory policies that have tribal 

implications.’’ 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 

Protection of Children From 

Environmental Health Risks and Safety 

Risks (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997), 

applies to any rule that: (1) Is 

determined to be ‘‘economically 

significant’’ as defined under Executive 

Order 12866, and (2) concerns an 

environmental health or safety risk that 

EPA has reason to believe may have a 

disproportionate effect on children. If 

the regulatory action meets both criteria, 

the Agency must evaluate the 

environmental health or safety effects of 

the planned rule on children, and 

explain why the planned regulation is 

preferable to other potentially effective 

and reasonably feasible alternatives 

considered by the Agency. 

This rule is not subject to Executive 

Order 13045 because it does not involve 

decisions intended to mitigate 

environmental health or safety risks. 

H. Executive Order 13211, Actions That 

Significantly Affect Energy Supply, 

Distribution, or Use 

This rule is not subject to Executive 

Order 13211, ‘‘Actions Concerning 

Regulations That Significantly Affect 

Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use’’ (66 

FR 28355, May 22, 2001) because it is 

not a significant regulatory action under 

Executive Order 12866. 

I. National Technology Transfer and 

Advancement Act (NTTAA) 

Section 12 of the NTTAA of 1995 

requires federal agencies to evaluate 

existing technical standards when 

developing a new regulation. To comply 

with NTTAA, EPA must consider and 

use ‘‘voluntary consensus standards’’ 

(VCS) if available and applicable when 

developing programs and policies 

unless doing so would be inconsistent 

with applicable law or otherwise 

impractical. 

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.

the fine particulate matter (PM2.5) 2002 

base year emissions inventory, portion 

of the State Implementation Plan (SIP) 

revision submitted by the 

Commonwealth of Kentucky on 

December 3, 2008. The emissions 

inventory is part of the Kentucky’s 

December 3, 2008, SIP revision that was 

submitted to meet the nonattainment 

requirements related to the 

Commonwealth’s portion of the bi-state 

Louisville, KY–IN nonattainment area 

for the 1997 annual PM2.5 national 

ambient air quality standards (NAAQS). 

The bi-state Louisville, KY–IN 

nonattainment area is comprised of 

Clark and Floyd Counties in Indiana, in 

their entireties; the Madison Township 

portion of Jefferson County, Indiana; 

and Bullitt and Jefferson Counties in 

Kentucky, in their entireties. This 

proposed action only relates to the 

Kentucky portion (i.e., Bullitt and 

Jefferson Counties) of this Area. EPA 

will consider action on the emissions 

inventory for the Indiana portion of this 

Area in a separate action. This action is 

being taken pursuant to section 110 of 

the Clean Air Act.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

II. Analysis of the Commonwealth’s 

Submittal 

III. Proposed Action 

IV. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews 

I. Background 

On July 18, 1997 (62 FR 36852), EPA 

established an annual PM2.5 NAAQS at 

15.0 micrograms per cubic meter based 

on a 3-year average of annual mean 

PM2.5 concentrations. On January 5, 

2005 (70 FR 944), EPA published its air 

quality designations and classifications 

for the 1997 annual PM2.5 NAAQS based 

upon air quality monitoring data for 

calendar years 2001–2003. These 

designations became effective on April 

5, 2005. The bi-state Louisville Area 

(which is comprised of Clark and Floyd 

Counties in Indiana, in their entireties; 

the Madison Township portion of 

Jefferson County, Indiana; and Bullitt 

and Jefferson Counties in Kentucky in 

their entireties) was designated 

nonattainment for the 1997 annual 

PM2.5 NAAQS. See 40 CFR 81.318 for 

Kentucky and 40 CFR 81.315 for 

Indiana. 

Designation of an area as 

nonattainment starts the process for a 

state to develop and submit to EPA a 

SIP under title I, part D of the Clean Air 

Act (CAA or Act). This SIP must 

include, among other elements, a 

demonstration of how the NAAQS will 

be attained in the nonattainment area as 

expeditiously as practicable, but no later 

than the date required by the CAA. 

Under CAA section 172(b), a state has 

up to three years after an area’s 

designation as nonattainment to submit 

its SIP to EPA. For the 1997 PM2.5

NAAQS, these SIPs were due April 5, 

2008. See 40 CFR 51.1002(a). 

On December 3, 2008, Kentucky 

submitted an attainment demonstration 

and associated reasonably available 

control measures (RACM), a reasonable 

further progress (RFP) plan, contingency 

measures, a 2002 base year emissions 

inventory and other planning SIP 

revisions related to attainment of the 

1997 annual PM2.5 NAAQS in the 

Commonwealth’s portion of the bi-state 

Louisville Area. Subsequently, on 

March 9, 2011 (76 FR 12860), EPA 

determined that the bi-state Louisville 

Area attained the 1997 annual average 

PM2.5 NAAQS. The determination of 

attainment was based upon complete, 

quality-assured and certified ambient air 

monitoring data for the 2007–2009 

period, showing that the Area had 

monitored attainment of the 1997 

annual PM2.5 NAAQS. The requirements 

for the Area to submit an attainment 

demonstration and associated RACM, 

RFP plan, contingency measures, and 

other planning SIP revisions related to 

attainment of the standard were 

suspended as a result of the 

determination of attainment, so long as 

the Area continues to attain the 1997 

annual PM2.5 NAAQS. See 40 CFR 

51.1004(c). 

On September 30, 2011, Kentucky 

withdrew the nonattainment 

submissions (everything with the 

exception of the 2002 base year 

emissions inventory) for its portion of 

the bi-state Louisville Area as allowed 

by 40 CFR 51.1004(c). EPA notes that 

the determination of attainment did not 

suspend the emissions inventory 

requirement found in CAA section 

172(c)(3), and as such, Kentucky did not 

withdraw this portion of its December 3, 

2008, SIP revision. Section 172(c)(3) of 

the CAA requires submission and 

approval of a comprehensive, accurate, 

and current inventory of actual 

emissions. EPA is now proposing to 

approve the emissions inventory portion 

of the SIP revision submitted by the 

Commonwealth of Kentucky on 

December 3, 2008, as required by 

section 172(c)(3). 

II. Analysis of the Commonwealth’s 

Submittal 

As discussed above, section 172(c)(3) 

of the CAA requires areas to submit a 

comprehensive, accurate and current 

inventory of actual emissions from all 

sources of the relevant pollutant or 

pollutants in such area. Kentucky 

selected 2002 as base year for the 

emissions inventory per 40 CFR 

51.1008(b). Emissions contained in 

Kentucky’s December 3, 2008, SIP 

revision cover the general source 

categories of point sources, non-road 

mobile sources, area sources, on-road 

mobile sources, and biogenic sources. A 

detailed discussion of the emissions 

inventory development can be found in 

Appendix H of the Kentucky submittal; 

a summary is provided below. 

The table below provides a summary 

of the annual 2002 emissions of nitrogen 

oxides (NOX), sulfur dioxide (SO2) and 

PM2.5 included in the Kentucky 

submittal.

The 172(c)(3) emissions inventory is 

developed by the incorporation of data 

from multiple sources. States were 

required to develop and submit to EPA 

a triennial emissions inventory 

according to the Consolidated Emissions 

Reporting Rule for all source categories 

(i.e., point, area, nonroad mobile and 

on-road mobile). This inventory often 

forms the basis of data that are updated 

with more recent information and data 

that also is used in their attainment 

demonstration modeling inventory. 

Such was the case in the development 

of the 2002 emissions inventory that 

was submitted in the Commonwealth’s 

attainment SIP for its portion of the bistate Louisville Area. The 2002 

emissions inventory was based on data 

developed with the Visibility 

Improvement State and Tribal 

Association of the Southeast (VISTAS) 

contractors and submitted by the states 

to the 2002 National Emissions 

Inventory. Several iterations of the 2002 

inventories were developed for the 

different emissions source categories 

resulting from revisions and updates to 

the data. This resulted in the use of 

version G2 of the updated data to 

represent the point sources’ emissions. 

Data from many databases, studies and 

models (e.g., Vehicle Miles Traveled, 

fuel programs, the NONROAD 2002 

model data for commercial marine 

vessels, locomotives and Clean Air 

Market Division, etc.) resulted in the 

inventory submitted in this SIP. The 

data were developed according to 

current EPA emissions inventory 

guidance ‘‘Emissions Inventory 

Guidance for Implementation of Ozone 

and Particulate Matter National 

Ambient Air Quality Standards 

(NAAQS) and Regional Haze 

Regulations’’ (August 2005) and a 

quality assurance project plan that was 

developed through VISTAS and 

approved by EPA. EPA preliminarily 

agrees that the process used to develop 

this inventory was adequate to meet the 

requirements of CAA section 172(c)(3) 

and the implementing regulations. 

EPA has reviewed Kentucky’s 

emissions inventory and has 

preliminarily determined that it is 

adequate for the purposes of meeting 

section 172(c)(3) emissions inventory 

requirement. Further, EPA has made the 

preliminary determination that the 

emissions were developed consistent 

with the CAA, implementing 

regulations and EPA guidance for 

emission inventories. 

III. Proposed Action 

EPA is proposing to approve the 2002 

base year emissions inventory portion of 

the SIP revision submitted by the 

Commonwealth of Kentucky on 

December 3, 2008. EPA has made the 

preliminary determination that this 

action is consistent with section 110 of 

the CAA. 

IV. 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 proposed 

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 proposed 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 

mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with PROPOSALS

Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 102 / Friday, May 25, 2012 / Proposed Rules 31265 

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 F43255, 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 

methods, under Executive Order 12898 

(59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994). 

In addition, this proposed 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 Commonwealth, and EPA 

notes that it will not impose substantial 

direct costs on tribal governments or 

preempt tribal law.

issued in 2008, as well as several other 

miscellaneous rule revisions, will help 

Ohio’s effort to attain the 2008 ozone 

standard. These rules are approvable 

because they are consistent with the 

CTG documents issued by EPA in 2008, 

and satisfy the reasonably available 

control technology (RACT) requirements 

of the Clean Air Act (Act).
