107–295, 116 Stat. 2064; Department of 

Homeland Security Delegation No. 0170.1. 

■ 2. Add temporary § 165–T11–181 to 

read as follows: 

§ 165–T11–181 Safety Zone; Kimmelman’s 

Wedding Party Fireworks Display, San 

Francisco Bay, CA 

(a) Location. This safety zone is 

established for the waters of San 

Francisco Bay near Angel Island 

surrounding a barge used as the launch 

platform for a fireworks display to be 

held during the Kimmelman’s Wedding 

Celebration. During the loading of the 

fireworks barge, during the transit of the 

fireworks barge to the display location, 

and until fifteen minutes prior to the 

start of the fireworks display, the safety 

zone will encompass the navigable 

waters around and under the fireworks 

barge within a radius of 100 feet. During 

the 15 minutes preceding the fireworks 

display and during the 5-minute 

fireworks display itself, the safety zone 

increases in size to encompass the 

navigable waters around and under the 

fireworks launch barge within a radius 

of 800 feet. Loading of the pyrotechnics 

onto the fireworks barge is scheduled to 

commence at 1 p.m. on April 28, 2007, 

and will take place at Pier 50 in San 

Francisco. Towing of the barge from Pier 

50 to the display location is scheduled 

to take place between 1 p.m. and 4 p.m. 

on April 28, 2007. During the fireworks 

display, scheduled to start at 

approximately 9:30 p.m. on April 28, 

2007, the barge will be located 

approximately 800 feet off of Angel 

Island in position 37° 51′20.0′′ N, 122° 

26′43.0′′ W. 

(b) Effective Dates. This section is 

effective from 1 p.m. to 9:35 p.m. on 

April 28, 2007. If the event concludes 

prior to the scheduled termination time, 

the Coast Guard will cease enforcement 

of this safety zone and will announce 

that fact via Broadcast Notice to 

Mariners. 

(c) Regulations. In accordance with 

the general regulations in § 165.23 of 

this part, entry into, transit through, or 

anchoring within this safety zone by all 

vessels and persons is prohibited, 

unless specifically authorized by the 

Captain of the Port San Francisco, or his 

designated representative. 

(d) Enforcement. All persons and 

vessels shall comply with the 

instructions of the Coast Guard Captain 

of the Port, or the designated on-scene 

patrol personnel. Patrol personnel can 

be comprised of commissioned, warrant, 

and petty officers of the Coast Guard 

onboard Coast Guard, Coast Guard 

Auxiliary, local, state, and federal law 

enforcement vessels. Upon being hailed 

by U.S. Coast Guard patrol personnel by 

siren, radio, flashing light, or other 

means, the operator of a vessel shall 

proceed as directed. The U.S. Coast 

Guard may be assisted in the patrol and 

enforcement of this safety zone by local 

law enforcement as necessary. 

Dated: April 10, 2007.

Approval and Promulgation of Air 

Quality Implementation Plans; Ohio; 

Approval of Revision To Rescind 

Portions of the Ohio Transportation 

Conformity Regulations 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Direct final rule. 

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA) is approving a January 31, 

2007, request from Ohio for a State 

Implementation Plan (SIP) revision of 

the State transportation conformity 

regulations. Ohio held a public hearing 

on these revisions on September 21, 

2006. These revisions rescind the 

portion of the state transportation 

conformity regulations which are no 

longer consistent with the Federal 

transportation conformity regulations. 

The rescission of the State regulations 

will allow the Federal transportation 

conformity regulations to govern 

transportation conformity 

determinations in Ohio. 

DATES: This direct final rule will be 

effective June 26, 2007, unless EPA 

receives written adverse comments by 

May 29, 2007. If written adverse 

comments are received, EPA will 

publish a timely withdrawal of the 

direct final rule in the Federal Register 

informing the public that the rule will 

not take effect.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Throughout this document whenever 

‘‘we,’’ ‘‘us,’’ or ‘‘our’’ is used, we mean 

EPA. This supplementary information 

section is arranged as follows: 

I. What Is Transportation Conformity? 

II. What Is the Background for This Action? 

III. What Did the State Submit and How Did 

We Evaluate It? 

IV. What Action Is EPA Taking Today? 

V. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews 

I. What Is Transportation Conformity? 

Transportation conformity is required 

under Section 176(c) of the Clean Air 

Act to ensure that Federally supported 

highway, transit projects, and other 

activities are consistent with (‘‘conform 

to’’) the purpose of the SIP. Conformity 

currently applies to areas that are 

designated nonattainment, and those 

redesignated to attainment after 1990 

(maintenance areas) with plans 

developed under section 175A of the 

Clean Air Act for the following 

transportation related criteria 

pollutants: Ozone, particulate matter 

(PM2.5 and PM10), carbon monoxide 

(CO), and nitrogen dioxide (NO2). 

Conformity to the purpose of the SIP 

means that transportation activities will 

not cause new air quality violations, 

worsen existing violations, or delay 

timely attainment of the relevant 

national ambient air quality standards 

(NAAQS). The transportation 

conformity regulation is found in 40 

CFR part 93 and provisions related to 

conformity SIPs are found in 40 CFR 

51.390. 

II. What Is the Background for This 

Action? 

On August 10, 2005, the ‘‘Safe, 

Accountable, Flexible, Efficient 

Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for 

Users’’ (SAFETEA–LU) was signed into 

law. SAFETEA–LU revised a number of 

aspects related to section 176(c) of the 

Clean Air Act’s transportation 

conformity provisions. One of the 

changes was to streamline the 

requirements for conformity SIPs. Prior 

to SAFETEA–LU being signed into law, 

states were required to address all of the 

Federal conformity rule’s provisions in 

their conformity SIPs. Most of the 

sections of the Federal rule were 

required to be copied verbatim from the 

Federal rule into a state’s SIP, as 

previously required under 40 CFR 

51.390(d). States were also required to 

tailor all or portions of the following 

three sections of the Federal rule to 

meet their state’s individual 

circumstances: 40 CFR 93.105, which 

addresses consultation procedures; 40 

CFR 93.122(a)(4)(ii), which addresses 

written commitments to control 

measures that are not included in a 

Metropolitan Planning Organizations 

transportation plan and transportation 

improvement program that must be 

obtained prior to a conformity 

determination, and the requirement that 

such commitments must be fulfilled; 

and, 40 CFR 93.125(c) which addresses 

written commitments to mitigation 

measures that must be obtained prior to 

a project level conformity 

determination, and the requirement that 

project sponsors must comply with such 

commitments. 

Under SAFETEA–LU, states are 

required to address and tailor only these 

three sections of the conformity rule in 

their conformity SIPs. In general, states 

are no longer required to submit 

conformity SIP revisions that address 

the other sections of the conformity 

rule. This provision took effect on 

August 10, 2005, when SAFETEA–LU 

was signed into law. 

III. What Did the State Submit and How 

Did We Evaluate It? 

The SIP revision submitted to EPA on 

January 31, 2007, requests to rescind the 

sections of the Ohio Administrative 

Code (OAC), Chapters 3745–101 

Transportation Conformity, which are 

no longer required. When the Ohio rules 

are rescinded, the analagous Federal 

transportation conformity regulations 

will apply instead of the State 

regulations. The Federal transportation 

conformity regulations have been 

revised to address court decisions, and 

to incorporate new regulations to 

control PM2.5 and 8-hour ozone levels. 

The Ohio rules that are being rescinded 

are no longer valid under the 

subsequent court decisions and the 

SAFETEA–LU legislation. Approval of 

the rescission as a SIP revision will 

bring this regulatory framework into 

compliance with Federal law and 

regulation. 

We have reviewed the submittal to 

assure consistency with the February 

14, 2006, ‘‘Interim Guidance for 

Implementing the Transportation 

Conformity provisions in the Safe, 

Accountable, Flexible, Efficient 

Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for 

Users (SAFETEA–LU)’’. The policy 

guidance document can be found at 

http://epa.gov/otaq/stateresources/ 

transconf/policy.htm. 

Ohio is requesting approval of 

rescission of rules 3745–101–05, 3745–

101–06, 3745–101–07, 3745–101–08, 

3745–101–09, 3745–101–10, 3745–101–

11, 3745–101–12, 3745–101–13, 3745–

101–15, 3745–101–16, 3745–101–18, 

3745–101–19, and 3745–101–20. The 

rules that are not being rescinded 

address the consultation procedures and 

enforceability of mitigation controls and 

measures. These sections are still 

required by the SAFETEA–LU 

legislation because they are specific to 

each State. 

IV. What Action Is EPA Taking Today? 

Based on the reasons set forth above, 

EPA is approving the State’s request to 

rescind the following rules from the 

Ohio SIP: 3745–101–05, 3745–101–06, 

3745–101–07, 3745–101–08, 3745–101–

09, 3745–101–10, 3745–101–11, 3745–

101–12, 3745–101–13, 3745–101–15, 

3745–101–16, 3745–101–18, 3745–101–

19, and 3745–101–20. These rules are 

part of OAC 3745–101 Transportation 

Conformity. 

We are publishing this action without 

prior proposal because we view this as 

a noncontroversial amendment and 

anticipate no adverse comments. 

However, in the proposed rules section 

of this Federal Register publication, we 

are publishing a separate document that 

will serve as the proposal to approve the 

state plan if relevant adverse written 

comments are filed. This rule will be 

effective June 26, 2007 without further 

notice unless we receive relevant 


cprice-sewell on PROD1PC66 with RULES
Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 81 / Friday April 27, 2007 / Rules and Regulations 20947 

adverse written comments by May 29, 

2007. If we receive such comments, we 

will withdraw this action before the 

effective date by publishing a 

subsequent document that will 

withdraw the final action. All public 

comments received will then be 

addressed in a subsequent final rule 

based on the proposed action. The EPA 

will not institute a second comment 

period. Any parties interested in 

commenting on this action should do so 

at this time. If we do not receive any 

comments, this action will be effective 

June 26, 2007. 

VI. Statutory and Executive Order 

Reviews 

Executive Order 12866: Regulatory 

Planning and Review 

Under Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 

51735, October 4, 1993), this action is 

not a ‘‘significant regulatory action’’

and, therefore, is not subject to review 

by the Office of Management and 

Budget. 

Executive Order 13211: Actions That 

Significantly Affect Energy Supply, 

Distribution, or Use 

Because it is not a ‘‘significant 

regulatory action’’ under Executive 

Order 12866 or a ‘‘significant energy 

action,’’ this action is also not subject to 

Executive Order 13211, ‘‘Actions 

Concerning Regulations That 

Significantly Affect Energy Supply, 

Distribution, or Use’’ (66 FR 28355, May 

22, 2001). 

Regulatory Flexibility Act 

This action merely approves state law 

as meeting Federal requirements and 

imposes no additional requirements 

beyond those imposed by state law. 

Accordingly, the Administrator certifies 

that this rule will not have a significant 

economic impact on a substantial 

number of small entities under the 

Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 

et seq.). 

Unfunded Mandates Reform Act 

Because this rule approves preexisting requirements under state law 

and does not impose any additional 

enforceable duty beyond that required 

by state law, it 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). 

Executive Order 13175: Consultation 

and Coordination With Indian Tribal 

Governments 

This rule also does not have tribal 

implications because it will 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 

power and responsibilities between the 

Federal Government and Indian tribes, 

as specified by Executive Order 13175 

(59 FR 22951, November 9, 2000). 

Executive Order 13132: Federalism 

This action also does not have 

Federalism implications because it does 

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 (64 FR 43255, 

August 10, 1999). This action 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 

Clean Air Act. 

Executive Order 13045: Protection of 

Children From Environmental Health 

and Safety Risks 

This rule also is not subject to 

Executive Order 13045 ‘‘Protection of 

Children from Environmental Health 

Risks and Safety Risks’’ (62 FR 19885, 

April 23, 1997), because it approves a 

state rule implementing a Federal 

standard. 

National Technology Transfer 

Advancement Act 

In reviewing SIP submissions, EPA’s 

role is to approve state choices, 

provided that they meet the criteria of 

the Clean Air Act. In this context, in the 

absence of a prior existing requirement 

for the state to use voluntary consensus 

standards (VCS), EPA has no authority 

to disapprove a SIP submission for 

failure to use VCS. It would thus be 

inconsistent with applicable law for 

EPA, when it reviews a SIP submission, 

to use VCS in place of a SIP submission 

that otherwise satisfies the provisions of 

the Clean Air Act. 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. 

Paperwork Reduction Act 

This rule does not impose an 

information collection burden under the 

provisions of the Paperwork Reduction 

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

Congressional Review Act 

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 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. 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 June 26, 2007. 

Filing a petition for reconsideration by 

the Administrator of this final rule does 

not affect the finality of this rule 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 section 

307(b)(2).)

Change in Deadline for Rulemaking To 

Address the Control of Emissions 

From New Marine CompressionIgnition Engines at or Above 30 Liters 

Per Cylinder 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Direct Final Rule. 

SUMMARY: A January 2003 final rule 

established the first U.S. emission 

standards for new compression-ignition 

Category 3 marine engines, those with a 

displacement at or above 30 liters per 

cylinder displacement. It also 

established a deadline of April 27, 2007 

for EPA to promulgate a new tier of 

emission standards for these engines as 

determined appropriate under Clean Air 

Act (CAA) section 213(a). This 

rulemaking schedule was intended to 

allow EPA time to consider the state of 

technology that may permit deeper 

emission reductions and the status of 

international action for more stringent 

standards. Since 2003, we have 

continued to gain a greater 

understanding of the technical issues 

described in the final rule and to assess 

the continuing efforts of manufacturers 

to apply advanced emission control 

technologies to these very large engines, 

through ongoing discussions with 

various stakeholders. In addition, we 

have continued to work with and 

through the International Maritime 

Organization (IMO) toward more 

stringent international emission 

standards that would apply to all new 

marine diesel engines on ships engaged 

in international transportation. IMO is 

an important forum for EPA to gather 

new information and data regarding 

emission control technologies, costs, 

and other information on Category 3 

engines and vessels. IMO is also 

important because the majority of ships 

used in international commerce are 

flagged in other nations. Due to the 

length of time necessary to assess 

advanced emission control technologies 

much of the information that we believe 

is necessary to develop more stringent 

Category 3 marine diesel engines 

standards has only become available 

recently and we expect more 

information to come to light in the 

course of the current negotiations 

underway at the IMO. Therefore, EPA is 

adopting a new deadline for the 

rulemaking that will consider the next 

tier of Category 3 marine diesel engine 

standards. Under this new schedule, 

EPA would adopt a final rule by 

December 17, 2009. 

DATES: This rule is effective on June 26, 

2007 without further notice, unless EPA 

receives adverse comment by May 29, 

2007 or a request for a public hearing by 

May 17, 2007. If a hearing is requested 

by this date, it will be held at a time and 

place to be published in the Federal 

Register. After the hearing, the docket 

for this rulemaking will remain open for 

an additional 30 days to receive 

comments. If a hearing is held, EPA will 

publish a document in the Federal 

Register extending the comment period 

for 30 days after the hearing. If EPA 

receives adverse comments or a request 

for public hearing, it will publish a 

timely withdrawal of the direct final 

rule in the Federal Register and inform 

the public that the rule will not take 

effect.

Instructions: Direct your comments to 

Docket ID No. EPA–HQ–OAR–2007–

0120. EPA’s policy is that all comments 

received will be included in the public 

docket without change and may be 

made available online at http:// 

www.regulations.gov, including any 

personal information provided, unless 

the comment includes information 

claimed to be Confidential Business 

Information (CBI) or other information 

whose disclosure is restricted by statute. 

Do not submit information that you 

consider to be CBI or otherwise 

protected through http:// 

www.regulations.gov or e-mail. The 

http://www.regulations.gov Web site is 

an ‘‘anonymous access’’ system, which 

means EPA will not know your identity 

or contact information unless you 

provide it in the body of your comment. 

If you send an e-mail comment directly 

to EPA without going through http:// 

www.regulations.gov your e-mail 

address will be automatically captured 

and included as part of the comment 

that is placed in the public docket and 

made available on the Internet. If you 

submit an electronic comment, EPA 

recommends that you include your 

name and other contact information in 

the body of your comment and with any 

disk or CD–ROM you submit. If EPA 

cannot read your comment due to 

technical difficulties and cannot contact 

you for clarification, EPA may not be 

able to consider your comment. 

Electronic files should avoid the use of 

special characters, any form of 

encryption, and be free of any defects or 

viruses. For additional information
