Revisions to the California State 

Implementation Plan, Joaquin Valley 

Unified Air Pollution Control District 

and Imperial County Air Pollution 

Control District 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: EPA is finalizing approval of 

revisions to the San Joaquin Valley 

Unified Air Pollution Control District 

(SJVUAPCD) and Imperial County Air 

Pollution Control District (ICAPCD) 

portions of the California State 

Implementation Plan (SIP). These 

revisions were proposed in the Federal 

Register on June 3, 2011 and concern 

volatile organic compound (VOC) 

emissions from Motor Vehicle 

Assembly, Metal Parts and Products, 

Plastic Parts and Products and Pleasure 

Crafts, Aerospace Operations and 

Automotive Refinishing Operations. We 

are approving local rules that regulate 

these emission sources under the Clean 

Air Act as amended in 1990 (CAA or the 

Act). 

DATES: Effective Date: This rule is 

effective on December 1, 2011. 

ADDRESSES: EPA has established docket

I. Proposed Action 

On June 3, 2011 (FR 32113), EPA 

proposed to approve the following rules 

into the California SIP. 

Local agency Rule No. Rule title Adopted Submitted 

SJVUAPCD .......................... 4602 Motor Vehicle Assembly Coatings ............................................................ 9/17/09 5/17/10 

SJVUAPCD .......................... 4603 Surface Coating of Metal Parts and Products, Plastic Parts and Products and Pleasure Crafts.9/17/09 5/17/10 

ICAPCD ............................... 425 Aerospace Coating Operations ................................................................. 2/23/10 7/20/10 

ICAPCD ............................... 427 Automotive Refinishing Operations ........................................................... 2/23/10 7/20/10 

We proposed to approve these rules 

because we determined that they 

complied with the relevant CAA 

requirements. Our proposed action 

contains more information on the rules 

and our evaluation. 

II. Public Comments and EPA 

Responses 

EPA’s proposed action provided a 

30-day public comment period. During 

this period, we received no comments. 

III. EPA Action 

No comments were submitted that 

change our assessment that the 

submitted rules comply with the 

relevant CAA requirements. Therefore, 

as authorized in section 110(k)(3) of the 

Act, EPA is fully approving these rules 

into the California SIP. 

IV. 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 

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, this rule does not have 

tribal implications as specified by 

Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, 

November 9, 2000), because the SIP is 

mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with RULES

67370 Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 211 / Tuesday, November 1, 2011 / Rules and Regulations 

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 

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).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

A. Background 

GSA is amending the FPMR (41 CFR 

Chapter 101) by removing the 

provisions regarding priorities for use of 

Government supply sources. The 

Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) is 

considered the primary regulation for 

use by all Federal executive agencies in 

their acquisition of supplies and 

services with appropriated funds; 

therefore, policies that repeat, 

paraphrase, or restate the FAR are 

unnecessary. 

B. Executive Orders 12866 and 13563 

Executive Orders (E.O.s) 12866 and 

13563 direct agencies to assess all costs 

and benefits of available regulatory 

alternatives and, if regulation is 

necessary, to select regulatory 

approaches that maximize net benefits 

(including potential economic, 

environmental, public health and safety 

effects, distributive impacts, and 

equity). E.O. 13563 emphasizes the 

importance of quantifying both costs 

and benefits, of reducing costs, of 

harmonizing rules, and of promoting 

flexibility. This rule has been 

designated a ‘‘significant regulatory 

action’’ although not economically 

significant, under section 3(f) of 

Executive Order 12866. Accordingly, 

the rule has been reviewed by the Office 

of Management and Budget. 

C. Regulatory Flexibility Act 

This final rule will not have a 

significant economic impact on a 

substantial number of small entities 

within the meaning of the Regulatory 

Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 601, et seq., 

because the revisions are not considered 

substantive. This final rule is also 

exempt from the Regulatory Flexibility 

Act per 5 U.S.C. 553(a)(2) because it 

applies to agency management or 

personnel. However, this final rule is 

being published to provide transparency 

in the promulgation of Federal policies. 

D. Paperwork Reduction Act 

The Paperwork Reduction Act does 

not apply because the final rule does not 

impose information collection 

requirements that require the approval 

of the Office of Management and Budget 

under 44 U.S.C. 3501, et seq. 

E. Small Business Regulatory 

Enforcement Fairness Act 

This final rule is exempt from 

Congressional review under 5 U.S.C. 

801 since it relates solely to agency 

management and personnel.
