Approval and Promulgation of 

Implementation Plans; State of Alaska; 

Revised Format of 40 CFR Part 52 for 

Materials Incorporated by Reference 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Final rule; administrative 

change. 

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA) is revising the format for 

materials submitted by the State of 

Alaska that are incorporated by 

reference (IBR) into the Alaska State 

Implementation Plan (SIP). The 

regulations affected by this format 

change have all been previously 

submitted by Alaska and approved by 

the EPA. This format revision will 

primarily affect the ‘‘Identification of 

plan’’ section, as well as the format of 

the SIP materials that will be available 

for public inspection at the National 

Archives and Records Administration 

(NARA), the Air and Radiation Docket 

and Information Center located at the 

EPA Headquarters in Washington, DC, 

and the EPA Regional Office. The EPA 

is also adding a table in the 

‘‘Identification of plan’’ section which 

summarizes the approval actions that 

the EPA has taken on the non-regulatory 

and quasi-regulatory portions of the 

Alaska SIP. 

DATES: This action is effective April 10, 

2014. 

ADDRESSES: SIP materials which are 

incorporated by reference into 40 CFR 

part 52 are available for inspection at 

the following locations: 

• US Environmental Protection 

Agency, Region 10, Office of Air, Waste, 

and Toxics (OAWT–107), 1200 Sixth

I. Background 

A. What a SIP Is 

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 network, attainment 

demonstrations, and enforcement 

mechanisms. 

B. How the EPA Enforces SIPs 

Each state must formally adopt the 

control measures and strategies in the 

SIP after the public has had an 

opportunity to comment on them. They 

are then submitted to the EPA as SIP 

revisions upon which the EPA must 

formally act. Once these control 

measures and strategies are approved by 

the EPA, 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 actual state regulations 

approved by the EPA are not 

reproduced in their entirety in 40 CFR 

part 52, but are ‘‘incorporated by 

reference’’ (IBR’d) which means that the 

EPA has approved a given state 

regulation with a specific effective date. 

This format allows both the EPA and the 

public to know which measures are 

contained in a given SIP and ensures 

that the state is enforcing the 

regulations. It also allows the EPA and 

the public to take enforcement action, 


ehiers on DSK2VPTVN1PROD with RULES
Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 69 / Thursday, April 10, 2014 / Rules and Regulations 19821 

should a state not enforce its SIPapproved regulations. 

C. How the State and the EPA Update 

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, the 

EPA must, from time to time, take action 

on SIP revisions containing new and/or 

revised regulations in order to make 

them part of the SIP. On May 22, 1997 

(62 FR 27968), the EPA revised the 

procedures for IBR’ing Federallyapproved SIPs, as a result of 

consultations between the EPA and the 

Office of the Federal Register (OFR). 

The EPA began the process of 

developing: (1) A revised SIP document 

for each state that would be IBR’d under 

the provisions of title 1 CFR part 51; (2) 

a revised mechanism for announcing the 

EPA approval of revisions to an 

applicable SIP and updating both the 

IBR document and the CFR; and (3) a 

revised format of the ‘‘Identification of 

Plan’’ sections for each applicable 

subpart to reflect these revised IBR 

procedures. The description of the 

revised SIP document, IBR procedures, 

and ‘‘Identification of Plan’’ format are 

discussed in further detail in the May 

22, 1997, Federal Register document. 

D. How the EPA Compiles the SIPs 

The Federally-approved regulations, 

source-specific permits, and 

nonregulatory provisions (entirely or 

portions of) submitted by each state 

agency have been compiled by the EPA 

into a ‘‘SIP compilation.’’ The SIP 

compilation contains the updated 

regulations, source-specific permits, and 

nonregulatory provisions approved by 

the EPA through previous rulemaking 

actions in the Federal Register. 

E. How the EPA Organizes the SIP 

Compilation 

Each compilation contains three parts. 

Part one contains the regulations, part 

two contains the source-specific 

requirements that have been approved 

as part of the SIP, and part three 

contains nonregulatory provisions that 

have been EPA-approved. Each part 

consists of a table of identifying 

information for each SIP-approved 

regulation, each SIP-approved sourcespecific permit, and each nonregulatory 

SIP provision. In this action, the EPA is 

publishing the tables summarizing the 

applicable SIP requirements for Alaska. 

The EPA Regional Offices have the 

primary responsibility for updating the 

compilations and ensuring their 

accuracy. 

F. Where You Can Find a Copy of the 

SIP Compilation 

The EPA Region 10 developed and 

will maintain the compilation for 

Alaska. A copy of the full text of 

Alaska’s regulatory and source-specific 

SIP compilation will also be maintained 

at NARA and the EPA’s Air Docket and 

Information Center. 

G. The Format of the New Identification 

of Plan Section 

In order to better serve the public, the 

EPA revised the organization of the 

‘‘Identification of Plan’’ section and 

included additional information to 

clarify the enforceable elements of the 

SIP. The revised Identification of Plan 

section contains five subsections: 

1. Purpose and scope. 

2. Incorporation by reference. 

3. EPA-approved regulations. 

4. EPA-approved source-specific 

requirements. 

5. EPA-approved nonregulatory and 

quasi-regulatory provisions. 

H. When a SIP Revision Becomes 

Federally Enforceable 

All revisions to the applicable SIP 

become Federally enforceable as of the 

effective date of the revisions to 

paragraphs (c), (d), or (e) of the 

applicable Identification of Plan section 

found in each subpart of 40 CFR part 52. 

I. The Historical Record of SIP Revision 

Approvals 

To facilitate enforcement of 

previously approved SIP provisions and 

provide a smooth transition to the new 

SIP processing system, the EPA retains 

the original Identification of Plan 

section, previously appearing in the 

CFR as the first or second section of part 

52 for each state subpart. After an initial 

two-year period, the EPA will review its 

experience with the new system and 

enforceability of previously approved 

SIP measures and will decide whether 

or not to retain the Identification of Plan 

appendices for some further period. 

Although the EPA is retaining the 

original Identification of Plan section, 

other sections of part 52 are duplicative 

of the new Identification of Plan section. 

The EPA is therefore removing sections 

52.97 ‘‘Interstate Transport for the 1997 

8-hour ozone and PM2.5 NAAQS’’ and 

52.98 ‘‘Section 110(a)(2) infrastructure 

requirements’’ as part of the general 

‘‘housekeeping’’ discussed below. 

II. What the EPA Is Doing in This 

Action 

This action constitutes a 

‘‘housekeeping’’ exercise to ensure that 

all revisions to the state programs that 

have occurred are accurately reflected in 

40 CFR part 52. State SIP revisions are 

controlled by the EPA regulations at 40 

CFR part 51. When the EPA receives a 

formal SIP revision request, the EPA 

must publish the proposed revision in 

the Federal Register and provide for 

public comment before approval. 

The EPA has determined that this 

action falls under the ‘‘good cause’’ 

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

Administrative Procedures 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 a rule effective immediately 

(thereby avoiding the 30-day delayed 

effective date otherwise provided for in 

the APA). This action simply codifies 

provisions which are already in effect as 

a matter of law in Federal and approved 

state programs. Under section 553 of the 

APA, an agency may find good cause 

where procedures are ‘‘impractical, 

unnecessary, or contrary to the public 

interest.’’ Public comment is 

‘‘unnecessary’’ and ‘‘contrary to the 

public interest’’ since the codification 

only reflects existing law. Immediate 

notice in the CFR benefits the public by 

removing outdated citations. 

III. Statutory and Executive Order 

Reviews 

A. General Requirements 

Under Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 

51735, October 4, 1993), this action is 

not a ‘‘significant regulatory action’’ and 

is therefore not subject to review by the 

Office of Management and Budget. 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. Because the agency has made a 

‘‘good cause’’ finding that this action is 

not subject to notice-and-comment 

requirements under the Administrative 

Procedure Act or any other statute as 

indicated in the SUPPLEMENTARY

INFORMATION section above, it is not 

subject to the regulatory flexibility 

provisions of the Regulatory Flexibility 

Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.), or to sections 

202 and 205 of the Unfunded Mandates 

Reform Act of 1995 (UMRA) (Pub. L. 

104–4). In addition, this action does not 

significantly or uniquely affect small 

governments or impose a significant 

intergovernmental mandate, as 

described in sections 203 and 204 of 

UMRA. This rule also 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 


ehiers on DSK2VPTVN1PROD with RULES
19822 Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 69 / Thursday, April 10, 2014 / Rules and Regulations 

power and responsibilities between the 

Federal government and Indian tribes, 

as specified by Executive Order 13175 

(65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000), nor 

will it 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 rule also is not 

subject to Executive Order 13045 (62 FR 

19885, April 23, 1997), because it is not 

economically significant. This rule does 

not involve technical standards; 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. The rule also 

does not involve special consideration 

of environmental justice related issues 

as required by Executive Order 12898 

(59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994). In 

issuing this rule, the EPA has taken the 

necessary steps to eliminate drafting 

errors and ambiguity, minimize 

potential litigation, and provide a clear 

legal standard for affected conduct, as 

required by section 3 of Executive Order 

12988 (61 FR 4729, February 7, 1996). 

The EPA has complied with Executive 

Order 12630 (63 FR 8859, March 15, 

1998) by examining the takings 

implications of the rule in accordance 

with the ‘‘Attorney General’s 

Supplemental Guidelines for the 

Evaluation of Risk and Avoidance of 

Unanticipated Takings’’ issued under 

the executive order. This rule does not 

impose an information collection 

burden under the Paperwork Reduction 

Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.). The 

EPA’s compliance with these statutes 

and Executive Orders for the underlying 

rules is discussed in previous actions 

taken on the State’s rules. 

B. Submission to Congress and the 

Comptroller General 

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. Section 808 allows 

the issuing agency to make a rule 

effective sooner than otherwise 

provided by the CRA if the agency 

makes a good cause finding that notice 

and public procedure is impracticable, 

unnecessary or contrary to the public 

interest. This action simply codifies 

provisions which are already in effect as 

a matter of law in Federal and approved 

state programs. 5 U.S.C. 802(2). As 

stated previously, the EPA has made 

such a good cause finding, including the 

reasons therefore, and established an 

effective of April 10, 2014. The 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. The changes in format to the 

‘‘Identification of plan’’ section for 

Alaska are not a ‘major rule’ as defined 

by 5 U.S.C. 804(2). 

C. Petitions for Judicial Review 

The EPA has also determined that the 

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

Clean Air Act pertaining to petitions for 

judicial review are not applicable to this 

action. Prior EPA rulemaking actions for 

each individual component of the 

Alaska SIP compilations had 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, the EPA sees no need in 

this action to reopen the 60-day period 

for filing such petitions for judicial 

review for these ‘‘Identification of plan’’ 

reorganization actions for Alaska.

Program for South Carolina 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Direct final rule. 

SUMMARY: The Resource Conservation 

and Recovery Act of 1976, as amended 

(RCRA), authorizes the United States 

Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) 

to grant approval to states to operate 

their underground storage tank 

programs in lieu of the federal program. 

The EPA codifies its decision to approve 

state underground storage tank 

programs and incorporate by reference 

those provisions of the state statutes and 

regulations that EPA has approved. This 

action codifies the prior approval of 

South Carolina’s underground storage 

tank program, which EPA approved on 

August 28, 2002, and incorporates by 

reference approved provisions of South 

Carolina’s statutes and regulations. 

DATES: This direct final rule is effective 

June 9, 2014, unless EPA publishes a 

prior Federal Register notice 

withdrawing this direct final rule. All 

comments on the codification of South 

Carolina’s underground storage tank 

program must be received by the close 

of business May 12, 2014. The 

incorporation by reference of certain 

publications listed in the regulations is 

approved by the Director of the Federal 

Register, as of June 9, 2014, in 

accordance with 5 U.S.C. 552(a) and 1 

CFR part 51.
