**Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans;**  **Colorado; Revisions to Common Provisions and Regulation Number 3;**  **Correction**

**AGENCY :**  Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

**ACTION :**  Final rule.

**SUMMARY :**  The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is approving State Implementation Plan (SIP) revisions submitted by the State of Colorado on March 31, 2010, May 16, 2012 and May 13, 2013. The revisions are to Colorado Air Quality Control Commission (Commission) Regulation Number 3, Parts A, B and D and Common Provisions Regulation. The revisions include administrative changes to permitting requirements for stationary sources, updates to the fine particulate matter less than 2.5 microns in diameter (PM2.5 ) implementation rule related to the federal New Source Review (NSR) Program, changes to address previous revisions to Air Pollutant Emission Notice (APEN) regulations that EPA disapproved or provided comments on, revisions to definitions, and minor editorial changes. Also in this action, EPA is correcting a final rule pertaining to Colorado’s SIP published on April 24, 2014. In our April 24, 2014 action, regulatory text and corresponding ‘‘incorporation by reference’’ (IBR) materials were inadvertently excluded for greenhouse gas permitting revisions to the Common Provisions Regulation and minor editorial changes to the Common Provisions Regulation and Parts A, B and D of Regulation Number 3 (adopted October 10, 2010). This action is being taken under section 110 of the Clean Air Act (CAA).

**DATES :**  This rule is effective on February 24, 2016.

**ADDRESSES :**  EPA has established a docket for this action under Docket ID No. EPA–R08–OAR–2015–0493. All documents in the docket are listed on the www.regulations.gov Web site. Although listed in the index, some information is not publicly available,

. **SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :**  I. Background

In our notice of proposed rulemaking published on September 14, 2015 (80 FR 55055), EPA proposed to either approve or take no action on revisions to Common Provisions Regulation and Regulation Number 3, Parts A, B and D submitted by the State of Colorado on March 31, 2010, May 16, 2012 and May 13, 2013. In this rulemaking, we are taking final action on revisions to Common Provisions Regulation which include adding compounds to the definition of ‘‘negligibly reactive volatile compounds’’ (NRVOC), clarifying NRVOC and volatile organic compound (VOC) testing methodologies within the definition of ‘‘volatile organic compound,’’ and revising the definition of ‘‘incinerator’’ along with minor editorial changes. We are also taking final action on revisions to Regulation Number 3, Parts A, B and D which include revisions to State permitting requirements for stationary sources to incorporate changes to the federal NSR Program related to PM2.5 , revisions to address past rule revisions that were disapproved or commented on by EPA, administrative revisions to permitting requirements for stationary sources in Colorado, and deferral of the permitting requirements for biogenic sources of carbon dioxide emissions to ensure consistency with federal greenhouse gas permitting requirements. The revisions also make several miscellaneous changes along with minor editorial changes. The reasons for our approval and taking no action are provided in detail in the proposed rule (80 FR 55055, September 14, 2015).

In this action, EPA is also taking final action to correct a final rule published in the Federal Register on April 24, 2014 (79 FR 22772). In this rule, we


### 3964 Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 15 / Monday, January 25, 2016 / Rules and Regulations

inadvertently did not include regulatory text and corresponding IBR materials for our approvals to (1) greenhouse gas permitting revisions to Common Provisions Regulation, and (2) minor editorial changes to the Common Provisions Regulation and Parts A, B and D of Regulation Number 3 (adopted October 10, 2010).
II. Response to Comments

We received one comment on our proposed rule.

Comment: The State of Colorado requested EPA approve provisions that we proposed to exclude from the IBR material related to tertiary butyl acetate within the State’s Common Provisions Regulation. The State concludes that these provisions are consistent with federal requirements when read in conjunction with Regulation Number 3, Part A, Appendix B, which has been approved by EPA.

Response: Under a final rule promulgated on November 29, 2004 (69 FR 69298), tertiary butyl acetate is excluded from the definition of VOC for purposes of VOC emissions limitations and VOC content requirements, but continues to be defined as a VOC for purposes of all recordkeeping, emissions reporting and inventory requirements which apply to VOCs. We agree with the State that the federal reporting requirements for tertiary butyl acetate are met through the State’s inclusion of tertiary butyl acetate in Appendix B of the Commission’s Regulation Number 3, Part A which ensures that this compound would be reported to the State as a distinct class, separate from other VOCs. Therefore, we are approving within Common Provisions Regulation the words ‘‘Tertiary Butyl Acetate (2-Butanone)’’ in the definition ‘‘NRVOCs’’ and the last sentence in the definition of ‘‘VOC’’ stating the photochemical dispersion modeling requirement for tertiary butyl
acetate. III. Final Action For the reasons expressed in the proposed rule, EPA is approving revisions to sections I.A., I.B., I.C., I.D., I.E., I.F., I.G., II.B., II.C., II.E.2. and II.H of the State’s Common Provisions Regulation from the March 31, 2010 submittal as shown in Table 1 below. We are also approving revisions to Parts A, B and D of the State’s Regulation Number 3 from the May 16, 2012 and May 13, 2013 submittals (Table 1), except for those revisions we are not taking action on as represented in Table 2 below. Finally, EPA is correcting regulatory text and IBR published in the Federal Register on April 24, 2014 (79 FR 22772).

A comprehensive summary of the revisions in Colorado’s Common Provisions Regulation and Regulation Number 3 Parts A, B and D organized by EPA’s action, reason for ‘‘no action’’ and submittal date are provided in Table 1 and Table 2 below.

IV. Incorporation by Reference

In this rule, the EPA is including regulatory text that includes incorporation by reference. In accordance with requirements of 1 CFR 51.5, the EPA is incorporating by reference Colorado Air Quality Control Commission regulations discussed in section III, Final Action of this preamble. The EPA has made, and will continue to make, these documents generally available electronically through www.regulations.gov and/or in hard copy at the appropriate EPA office (see the **ADDRESSES** section of this preamble for more information). V. Statutory and Executive Orders Review

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 final action merely approves some state law as meeting federal requirements; this final action does not impose additional requirements beyond those imposed by state law. For that reason, this final action:

• Is not a ‘‘significant regulatory action’’ subject to review by the Office of Management and Budget under Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 51735, Oct. 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, Aug. 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, Feb. 16, 1994).

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 and will not impose substantial direct costs on tribal governments or preempt tribal law as


### 3966 Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 15 / Monday, January 25, 2016 / Rules and Regulations

specified by Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000).

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).

Under section 307(b)(1) of the Clean Air Act, petitions for judicial review of this action must be filed in the United States Court of Appeals for the appropriate circuit by March 25, 2016. Filing a petition for reconsideration by the Administrator of this final rule does not affect the finality of this action for the purposes of judicial review nor does it extend the time within which a petition for judicial review may be filed, and shall not postpone the effectiveness of such rule or action. This action may not be challenged later in proceedings to enforce its requirements. (See CAA section 307(b)(2).) List of Subjects in 40 CFR Part 52
