R4] 

Air Plan Approval; Kentucky; Update 

to Materials Incorporated by Reference 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Final rule; notice of 

administrative change. 

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA) is updating the materials 

that are incorporated by reference (IBR) 

into the Commonwealth of Kentucky’s 

(Commonwealth’s) State 

Implementation Plan (SIP). The 

regulations affected by this update have 

been previously submitted by the 

Commonwealth and approved by EPA. 

In this notice, EPA is also notifying the 

public of corrections and clarifying 

changes to the Code of Federal 

Regulations (CFR) tables that identify 

material incorporated by reference into 

the Commonwealth’s SIP. This update 

affects the materials that are available 

for public inspection at the National 

Archives and Records Administration 

(NARA) and the EPA Regional Office. 

DATES: This rule is effective November 

15, 2023. 

ADDRESSES: The SIP materials whose 

incorporation by reference into 40 CFR 

part 52 is finalized through this action 

are available for inspection at the 

following locations: Environmental 

Protection Agency, Region 4, 61 Forsyth 

Street SW, Atlanta, GA 30303; and 

www.regulations.gov. To view the 

materials at the Region 4 Office, EPA 

requests that you email the contact 

listed in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION

CONTACT section to schedule your 

inspection. The Regional Office’s 

official hours of business are Monday 

through Friday 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

Each State has a SIP containing the 

control measures and strategies used to 

attain and maintain the national 

ambient air quality standards (NAAQS). 

The SIP is extensive, containing such 

elements as air pollution control 

regulations, emission inventories, 

monitoring networks, attainment 

demonstrations, and enforcement 

mechanisms. 

Each State must formally adopt the 

control measures and strategies in the 

SIP after the public has had an 

opportunity to comment on them and 

then submit the proposed SIP revisions 

to EPA. Once these control measures 

and strategies are approved by EPA, and 

after notice and comment, they are 

incorporated into the federallyapproved SIP and are identified in part 

52—‘‘Approval and Promulgation of 

Implementation Plans,’’ Title 40 of the 

Code of Federal Regulations (40 CFR 

part 52). The full text of the State 

regulation approved by EPA is not 

reproduced in its entirety in 40 CFR part 

52 but is ‘‘incorporated by reference.’’ 

This means that EPA has approved a 

given State regulation or specified 

changes to a given regulation with a 

specific effective date. The public is 

referred to the location of the full text 

version should they want to know 

which measures are contained in the 

SIP. The information provided allows 

EPA and the public to monitor the 

extent to which a State implements a 

SIP to attain and maintain the NAAQS 

and to take enforcement action for 

violations of the SIP. 

The SIP is a living document which 

the State can revise as necessary to 

address the unique air pollution 

problems in the State. Therefore, EPA 

from time to time must take action on 

proposed revisions containing new or 

revised regulations. A submission from 

a State can revise one or more rules in 

their entirety or portions of rules. The 

State indicates the changes in the 

submission (such as by using redline/ 

strikethrough text), and EPA then takes 


ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with RULES1
Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 219 / Wednesday, November 15, 2023 / Rules and Regulations 78233 

action on the requested changes. EPA 

establishes a docket for its actions using 

a unique Docket Identification Number, 

which is listed in each action. These 

dockets and the complete submission 

are available for viewing on 

www.regulations.gov. 

On May 22, 1997 (62 FR 27968), EPA 

revised the procedures for incorporating 

by reference, into the Code of Federal 

Regulations, materials approved by EPA 

into each SIP. These changes revised the 

format for the identification of the SIP 

in 40 CFR part 52, streamlined the 

mechanisms for announcing EPA 

approval of revisions to a SIP, and 

streamlined the mechanisms for EPA’s 

updating of the IBR information 

contained for each SIP in 40 CFR part 

52. The revised procedures also called 

for EPA to maintain ‘‘SIP Compilations’’ 

that contain the federally approved 

regulations and source-specific permits 

submitted by each State agency. EPA 

generally updates these SIP 

Compilations on an annual basis. Under 

the revised procedures, EPA must 

periodically publish an informational 

document in the rules section of the 

Federal Register notifying the public 

that updates have been made to a SIP 

Compilation for a particular State. EPA 

began applying the 1997 revised 

procedures to the Commonwealth on 

May 27, 1999 (64 FR 28748), to Jefferson 

County, Kentucky, on October 23, 2001 

(66 FR 53658), and to EPA-Approved 

Kentucky Source-Specific Requirements 

on May 27, 1999 (64 FR 28748) and is 

providing this notice in accordance with 

such procedures. 

II. EPA Action 

In this action, EPA is providing notice 

of an update to the materials 

incorporated by reference into the 

Commonwealth’s SIP as of September 

30, 2022, and identified in 40 CFR 

52.920(c) and (d). This update includes 

SIP materials approved by EPA since 

the last IBR update. See 69 FR 1677 

(January 12, 2004). In addition, EPA is 

providing notice of the following 

corrections and clarifying changes to 40

programs, and projects (Amendment)’’. 

G. Adding language ‘‘Except the 

phrase ‘except ethanol production 

facilities producing ethanol by natural 

fermentation under the North American 

Industry Classification System (NAICS) 

codes 325193 or 312140’ in 401 KAR 

51:001 Section 1(118)(a)(2)(a) and the

respectively. 

J. Correcting a typographical error in

K. Changing the effective date of 401 

KAR 51:052 because Kentucky’s 

September 23, 2011, SIP revision, with 

an effective date of August 4, 2011, is 

captured and superseded by Kentucky’s 

January 31, 2013, SIP revision, state 

effective on December 7, 2012, which 

EPA previously approved on November 

3, 2014. 

L. Changing the State Citation title 

‘‘** 401 KAR 52:040’’ to ‘‘401 KAR

for 401 KAR Chapter 61’’. 

P. Including an EPA approval date 

and a Federal Register citation for 401

regulatory text. 

B. Adding the phrase ‘‘Except for 

paragraphs 1.3, 5.3 and 5.6 regarding 

asbestos demolition, which were 

removed from the federally approved 

SIP by EPA on 5/7/2021’’ into the

boiler Units 1 and 2 of TVA’s Paradise 

Steam Plant’’ by changing the State 

effective date from ‘‘7/24/1996’’ to ‘‘7/ 

24/1986’’. 

III. Good Cause Exemption 

EPA has determined that this action 

falls under the ‘‘good cause’’ exemption 

in section 553(b)(3)(B) of the 

Administrative Procedure Act (APA) 

which, upon finding ‘‘good cause,’’ 

authorizes agencies to dispense with 

public participation and section 

553(d)(3) which allows an agency to 

make an action effective immediately 

(thereby avoiding the 30-day delayed 

effective date otherwise provided for in 

the APA). This administrative action 

simply codifies provisions which are 

already in effect as a matter of law in 

Federal and approved State programs, 

makes typographical/ministerial 

revisions to the tables in the CFR, and 

makes ministerial changes to the 

prefatory heading to the tables in the 

CFR. Under section 553(b)(3)(B) of the 

APA, an agency may find good cause 

where procedures are ‘‘impracticable, 

unnecessary, or contrary to the public 

interest.’’ Public comment for this 

administrative action is ‘‘unnecessary’’ 

and ‘‘contrary to the public interest’’ 

since the codification (and corrections) 

only reflect existing law and the 

changes to the prefatory heading to the 

tables are ministerial in nature. 

Immediate notice of this action in the 

Federal Register benefits the public by 

providing the public notice of the 

updated Kentucky SIP Compilation and 

notice of corrections and clarifications 

to the Commonwealth’s ‘‘Identification 

of Plan’’ portion of the CFR. Further, 

pursuant to section 553(d)(3), making 

this action immediately effective 

benefits the public by immediately 

updating both the SIP Compilation and 

the CFR ‘‘Identification of plan’’ section 

(which includes table entry corrections). 

IV. Incorporation by Reference 

In this rule, EPA is finalizing 

regulatory text that includes 

incorporation by reference. In 

accordance with requirements of 1 CFR 

51.5, EPA is finalizing the incorporation 

by reference of regulations promulgated 

by Kentucky, previously approved by 

EPA and federally effective before to 

September 30, 2022, contained in 

‘‘Kentucky, Volume 1, 40 CFR 

52.920(c)(1), EPA-Approved Kentucky 

Laws and Regulations’’, ‘‘Kentucky, 

Volume 2, 40 CFR 52.920(c)(2), EPAApproved Jefferson County 

Regulations’’, and ‘‘Kentucky, Volume 

3, 40 CFR 52.920(d), EPA-Approved 

Kentucky Source-Specific 

Requirements’’. EPA has made, and will 

continue to make, these materials 

generally available through 

www.regulations.gov and at the EPA 

Region 4 Office (please contact the 

person identified in the FOR FURTHER

INFORMATION CONTACT section of this 

preamble for more information). 

V. 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. 

See 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 final rule 

and notification of administrative 

change 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 Orders 12866 (58 FR 51735, 

October 4, 1993) and 13563 (76 FR 3821, 

January 21, 2011); 

• 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); and 

• 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. 

The SIP is not approved to apply on 

any Indian reservation land or in any 

other area where EPA or an Indian tribe 

has demonstrated that a tribe has 

jurisdiction. In those areas of Indian 

country, the rule does not have Tribal 

implications as specified by Executive 

Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 

2000), nor will it impose substantial 

direct costs on Tribal governments or 

preempt Tribal law. 

Executive Order 12898 (Federal 

Actions To Address Environmental 

Justice in Minority Populations and 

Low-Income Populations, 59 FR 7629, 

Feb. 16, 1994) directs Federal agencies 

to identify and address 

‘‘disproportionately high and adverse 

human health or environmental effects’’ 

of their actions on minority populations 

and low-income populations to the 

greatest extent practicable and 

permitted by law. EPA defines 

environmental justice (EJ) as ‘‘the fair 

treatment and meaningful involvement 

of all people regardless of race, color, 

national origin, or income with respect 

to the development, implementation, 

and enforcement of environmental laws, 

regulations, and policies.’’ EPA further 

defines the term fair treatment to mean 

that ‘‘no group of people should bear a 

disproportionate burden of 

environmental harms and risks, 

including those resulting from the 

negative environmental consequences of 

industrial, governmental, and 

commercial operations or programs and 

policies.’’ EPA did not perform an EJ 

analysis and did not consider EJ in this 

action. Consideration of EJ is not 

required as part of this action, and there 


ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with RULES1
Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 219 / Wednesday, November 15, 2023 / Rules and Regulations 78235 

is no information in the record 

inconsistent with the stated goal of E.O. 

12898 of achieving EJ for people of 

color, low-income populations, and 

Indigenous peoples. 

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). 

EPA also believes that the provisions 

of section 307(b)(1) of the CAA 

pertaining to petitions for judicial 

review are not applicable to this action. 

This is because prior EPA rulemaking 

actions for each individual component 

of the Kentucky SIP compilation 

previously afforded interested parties 

the opportunity to file a petition for 

judicial review in the United States 

Court of Appeals for the appropriate 

circuit within 60 days of such 

rulemaking action. Thus, EPA believes 

judicial review of this action under 

section 307(b)(1) is not available.
