Air Quality Designations and

Classifications for the 8-Hour Ozone

National Ambient Air Quality

Standards; Early Action Compact

Areas With Deferred Effective Dates

AGENCY: Environmental Protection

Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Final rule.

SUMMARY: This rule sets forth the air

quality designations and classifications

for every area in the United States,

including Indian country, for the 8-hour

ozone national ambient air quality

standard. We are issuing this rule so

that citizens will know whether the air

where they live and work is healthful or

unhealthful and to establish the

boundaries and classifications for areas

designated as nonattainment. Children

are at risk when exposed to ozone

pollution because their lungs are still

developing, people with existing

respiratory disease are at risk, and even

healthy people who are active outdoors

can experience difficulty breathing

when exposed to ozone pollution. In

this document, EPA is also

promulgating the first deferral of the

effective date, to September 30, 2005, of

the nonattainment designation for Early

Action Compact areas that have met all

milestones through March 31, 2004.

Finally, we are inviting States to submit

by July 15, 2004, requests to reclassify

areas if their design value falls within

five percent of a high or lower

classification. This rule does not

establish or address State and Tribal

obligations for planning and control

requirements which apply to

nonattainment areas for the 8-hour

ozone standard. Two separate rules, one

of which is also published today, set

forth the planning and control

requirements which apply to

nonattainment areas for this standard.

The second rule will be published at a

later date.

EFFECTIVE DATE: This final rule is

effective on June 15, 2004.

ADDRESSES: EPA has established dockets

for this action under Docket ID No.

OAR-2003-0083 (Designations) and

OAR-2003-0090 (Early Action

Compacts). All documents in the docket

I. What Is the Purpose of This

Document?

The purpose of this document is to

announce and promulgate designations,

classifications, and boundaries for areas

of the country with respect to the 8-hour

ground-level ozone National Ambient

Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) in

accordance with the requirements of the

CAA. We took several steps to announce

that this rule was available. We posted

the rule on several EPA Web sites and

provided a copy of the rule, which was

signed by the Administrator on April

15, 2004, to States and Tribes.

Il. How Is Ground-Level Ozone

Formed?

Ground-level ozone (sometimes

referred to as smog) is formed by the

reaction of volatile organic compounds

(VOCs) and oxides of nitrogen (NOx) in

the atmosphere in the presence of

sunlight. These two pollutants, often

referred to as ozone precursors, are

emitted by many types of pollution

sources, including on-road and off-road

motor vehicles and engines, power

plants and industrial facilities, and

smaller sources, collectively referred to

as area sources. Ozone is predominately

a summertime air pollutant. Changing

weather patterns contribute to yearly

differences in ozone concentrations

from region to region. Ozone and the

pollutants that form ozone also can be

transported into an area from pollution

sources found hundreds of miles

upwind.

IV. What Are the Health Concerns

Addressed by the 8-Hour Ozone

Standard?

During the hot summer months,

ground-level ozone reaches unhealthy

levels in several parts of the country.

Ozone is a significant health concern,

particularly for children and people

with asthma and other respiratory

diseases. Ozone has also been associated

with increased hospitalizations and

emergency room visits for respiratory

causes, school absences, and reduced

activity and productivity because

people are suffering from ozone-related

respiratory symptoms.

Breathing ozone can trigger a variety

of health problems. Ozone can irritate

the respiratory system, causing

coughing, throat irritation, an

uncomfortable sensation in the chest,

and/or pain when breathing deeply.

Ozone can worsen asthma and possibly

other respiratory diseases, such as

bronchitis and emphysema. When

ozone levels are high, more people with

asthma have attacks that require a

doctor's attention or the use of

additional medication. Ozone can

reduce lung function and make it more

difficult to breathe deeply, and

breathing may become more rapid and

shallow than normal, thereby limiting a

person's normal activity. In addition,

breathing ozone can inflame and

damage the lining of the lungs, which

may lead to permanent changes in lung

tissue, irreversible reductions in lung

function, and a lower quality of life if

the inflammation occurs repeatedly over

a long time period (months, years, a

lifetime). People who are particularly

23859

Federal Register/Vol. 69, No. 84/Friday, April 30, 2004/Rules and Regulations

susceptible to the effects of ozone

include children and adults who are

active outdoors, people with respiratory

disease, such as asthma, and people

with unusual sensitivity to ozone.

More detailed information on the

health effects of ozone can be found at

the following Web site: http.'//

www.epa.gov/ttn/naaqs/standards/

ozone/s o3 index.html.

V. What Is the Chronology of Events

Leading Up to This Rule?

This section summarizes the relevant

activities leading up to today's rule,

including promulgation of the 8-hour

ozone NAAQS and litigation

challenging that standard. The CAA

establishes a process for air quality

management through the NAAQS. Area

designations are required after

promulgation of a new or revised

NAAQS. In 1979, we promulgated the

0.12 parts per million (ppm) 1-hour

ozone standard, (44 Federal Register

8202, February 8, 1979). On July 18,

1997, we promulgated a revised ozone

standard of 0.08 ppm, measured over an

8-hour period, i.e., the 8-hour standard

(62 FR 38856). The 8-hour standard is

more protective of public health and

more stringent than the 1-hour standard.

The NAAQS rule was challenged by

numerous litigants and in May 1999, the

U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C.

Circuit issued a decision remanding, but

not vacating, the 8-hour ozone standard.

Among other things, the Court

recognized that EPA is required to

designate areas for any new or revised

NAAQS in accordance with the CAA

and addressed a number of other issues,

which are not related to designations.

American TruckingAssoc. v. EPA, 175

F.3d 1027, 1047-48, on rehearing 195

F.3d 4 (D.C. Cir., 1999). We sought

review of two aspects of that decision in

the U.S. Supreme Court. In February

2001, the Supreme Court upheld our

authority to set the NAAQS and

remanded the case back to the D.C.

Circuit for disposition of issues the

Court did not address in its initial

decision. Whitman v. American

Trucking Assoc., 121 S. Ct. 903, 911-

914, 916-919 (2001) (Whitman). The

Supreme Court also remanded the 8-

hour implementation strategy to EPA. In

March 2002, the D.C. Circuit rejected all

remaining challenges to the 8-hour

ozone standard. Am erican Trucking

Assoc. v. EPA, 283 F.3d 355 (D.C. Cir.

2002).

The process for designations

following promulgation of a NAAQS is

contained in section 107(d)(1) of the

CAA. For the 8-hour NAAQS, the

Transportation Equity Act for the 21st

Century (TEA-21) extended by 1 year

the time for EPA to designate areas for

the 8-hour NAAQS.' Thus, EPA was

required to designate areas for the 8-

hour NAAQS by July 2000. However,

HR3645 (EPA's appropriation bill in

2000) restricted EPA's authority to

spend money to designate areas until

June 2001 or the date of the Supreme

Court ruling on the standard, whichever

came first. As noted earlier, the

Supreme Court decision was issued in

February 2001. In 2003, several

environmental groups filed suit in

district court claiming EPA had not met

its statutory obligation to designate

areas for the 8-hour NAAQS. We

entered into a consent decree, which

requires EPA to issue the designations

by April 15, 2004.

VI. What Are the Statutory

Requirements for Designating Areas

and What Is EPA's Policy and Guidance

for Determining Nonattainment Area

Boundaries for the 8-Hour Ozone

NAAQS?

This section describes the statutory

definition of nonattainment and EPA's

guidance for determining air quality

attainment and nonattainment areas for

the 8-hour ozone NAAQS. In March

20002 and July 2000 3 we issued

designation guidance on how to

determine the boundaries for

nonattainment areas. In that guidance,

we rely on the CAA definition of a

nonattainment area that is defined in

section 107(d)(1)(A)(i) as an area that is

violating an ambient standard or is

contributing to a nearby area that is

violating the standard. If an area meets

this definition, EPA is obligated to

designate the area as nonattainment.

In making designations and

classifications, we use the most recent 3

years of monitoring data. 4 Therefore,

today's designations and classifications

are generally based on monitoring data

collected in 2001-2003 although other

relevant years of data may have been

used in certain circumstances. Once we

determine that a monitor is recording a

violation, the next step is to determine

if there are any nearby areas that are

contributing to the violation and

Seitz, "Boundary Guidance on Air Quality

Designations for the 8-Hour Ozone National

Ambient Air Quality Standards." 3 Memorandum of July 18, 2000, from John S.

Seitz, "Guidance on 8-Hour Ozone Designations for

Indian Tribes." 4 To determine whether an area is attaining the 8-

hour ozone NAAQS, EPA considers the most recent

3 consecutive years of data in accordance with 40

Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) part 50,

appendix I.

include them in the designated

nonattainment area.

For guidance on determining the

nonattainment boundary for the 8-hour

ozone standard, we look to CAA section

107(d)(4) that established the

Consolidated Metropolitan Statistical

Area (CMSA) or Metropolitan Statistical

Area (MSA) presumptive boundary for

more polluted areas when we

promulgated our designation actions in

1991 for the i-hour ozone standard. In

our guidance on determining

nonattainment area boundaries for the

8-hour ozone standard, we advised

States that if a violating monitor is

located in a CMSA or MSA (as defined

by the Office of Management and

Budget (OMB) in 1999), the larger of the

i-hour ozone nonattainment area or the

CMSA or MSA should be considered in

determining the boundary of a

nonattainment area. The actual size of

the nonattainment area may be larger or

smaller, depending on air qualityrelated technical factors contained in

our designation guidance. We start with

counties in the CMSA or MSA because

that area, defined by OMB, generally

shares economic, transportation,

population and other linkages that are

similar to air quality related factors that

produce ozone pollution. Also, many

CMSAs and MSAs generally are

associated with higher levels of ozone

concentrations and ozone precursor

emissions than areas that are not in or

near CMSAs or MSAs.

In June 2003, OMB released a new list

of statistical areas. This release was so

late in the designation process that we

determined that it would be disruptive

and unfair to the States and Tribes to

revise our guidance. However, we

believe it is necessary to evaluate all

counties in and around an area

containing a monitor that is violating

the standard, pursuant to our guidance

to consider nearby areas that are

contributing to a violation in

determining the boundaries of the

nonattainment area.

Once a CMSA, MSA or single county

area is determined to contain a monitor

that is violating the standard, the area

can be evaluated using all applicable

suggested air quality related factors in

our guidance. The factors can be used to

justify including counties outside the

CMSA or MSA or excluding counties in

the CMSA or MSA. The factors were

compiled based on our experience in

designating areas for the ozone standard

in March 1978 and November 1991 and

by looking to the CAA, section

107(d)(4), which states that the

Administrator and the Governor shall

consider factors such as population

density, traffic congestion, commercial

23860

HeinOnline -- 69 Fed. Reg. 23860 2004
Federal Register/Vol. 69, No. 84/Friday, April 30, 2004/Rules and Regulations

development, industrial development,

meteorological conditions, and

pollution transport. State and local

agencies also had extensive input into

compiling the factors.

The factors are:

(1) Emissions and air quality in

adjacent areas (including adjacent

CMSAs and MSAs),

(2) Population density and degree of

urbanization including commercial

development (significant difference

from surrounding areas),

(3) Monitoring data representing

ozone concentrations in local areas and

larger areas (urban or regional scale),

(4) Location of emission sources

(emission sources and nearby receptors

should generally be included in the

same nonattainment area),

(5) Traffic and commuting patterns,

(6) Expected growth (including extent,

pattern and rate of growth),

(7) Meteorology (weather/tran sport

patterns),

(8) Geography/topography (mountain

ranges or other air basin boundaries),

(9) Jurisdictional boundaries (e.g.,

counties, air districts, existing 1-hour

nonattainment areas, Reservations, etc.),

(10) Level of control of emission

sources, and,

(11) Regional emissions reductions

(e.g., NOx State Implementation Plan

(SIP) Call or other enforceable regional

strategies).

When evaluating the air quality

factors for individual areas, we took into

account our view that data recorded by

an ozone air quality monitor in most

cases represents air quality throughout

the area in which it is located. In

addition, we used the county (or in the

case of parts of New England, the

township) as the basic jurisdictional

unit in determining the extent of the

area reflected by the ozone monitor

data. As a result, if an ozone monitor

was violating the standard based on the

2001-2003 data, we designated the

entire county as nonattainment. There

were some exceptions to this rule: in

cases where a county was extremely

large as in the West; where a geographic

feature bifurcated a county, leading to

different air quality in different parts of

the county; and where a mountain top

monitor reflected the air quality data

only on the mountain top and not in

lower elevation areas.

After identifying the counties with

violating monitors, we then determined

which nearby counties were not

monitoring violations but were

nonetheless contributing to the nearby

violation. We considered each of the 11

factors in making our contribution

assessment, including emissions, traffic

patterns, population density, and area

growth. In some cases, in considering

these factors, as well as information and

recommendations provided by the State,

we determined that only part of a

county was contributing to the nearby

nonattainment area. In addition, in

certain cases, we determined that a

county without an ozone monitor

should be designated nonattainment

because contiguous counties have

monitors that are violating the standard.

In at least two instances, we determined

that a part of a county with no monitor,

but with a large emission source that

did not have state-of-the-art controls,

contributes to a nearby violation. In

some instances, if a State had requested

that we continue to use the 1-hour

ozone nonattainment boundary for an

area, we continued to use that boundary

in determining the size of the 8-hour

nonattainment area.

The EPA cannot rely on planned

ozone reduction strategies in making

decisions regarding nonattainment

designations, even if those strategies

predict that an area may attain in the

future. We recognize that some areas

with a violating monitor may come into

attainment in the future without

additional local emission controls

because of State and/or national

programs that will reduce ozone

transport. While we cannot consider

these analyses in determining

designations, we intend to expedite the

redesignation of the areas to attainment

once they monitor clean air. We also

intend to apply our policy which

streamlines the planning process for

nonattainment areas that are meeting

the NAAQS. 5

We believe that area-to-area variations

must be considered in determining

whether to include a county as

contributing to a particular

nonattainment problem. Thus, our

guidance does not establish cut-points

for how a particular factor is applied,

e.g., it does not identify a set amount of

VOC or NOx emissions or a specific

level of commuting population that

would result in including a county in

the designated nonattainment area. For

example, a county with a large source or

sources of NOx emissions may be

considered as a contributing county if it

is upwind, rather than downwind, of a

violating monitor. Additionally, a

county with VOC emissions of 5,000

tons per year (tpy) might be viewed

differently if the total VOC emissions of

the area are 15,000 tpy rather than

30,000 tpy. We analyzed the

5 Memorandum of May 10, 1995, from John S.

Seitz, "Reasonable Further Progress, Attainment

Demonstration, and Related Requirements for

Ozone Nonattainment Areas Meeting the Ozone

National Ambient Air Quality Standard."

information provided by each State or

Tribe in its recommendation letter, or

subsequently submitted, along with any

other pertinent information available to

EPA, to determine whether a county

should be designated nonattainment.

We evaluated each State or Tribal

designation recommendation in light of

the 11 factors, bringing to bear our best

technical and policy judgement. If the

result of the evaluation is that a county,

whether inside or outside of the CMSA

or MSA, is contributing to the violation,

we designated the area as

nonattainment.

VII. What Are the CAA Requirements

for Air Quality Designations and What

Actions Has EPA Taken To Meet the

Requirements?

In this part, we summarize the

provisions of section 107(d)(1) of the

CAA that govern the process States and

EPA must undertake to recommend and

promulgate designations. Following

promulgation of a standard, each State

Governor or Tribal leader has an

opportunity to recommend air quality

designations, including appropriate

boundaries, to EPA. No later than 120

days prior to promulgating designations,

we must notify States or Tribes if we

intend to make modifications to their

recommendations and boundaries as we

deem necessary. States and Tribes then

have an opportunity to provide a

demonstration as to why the proposed

modification is inappropriate. Whether

or not a State or Tribe provides a

recommendation, EPA must promulgate

the designation it deems appropriate.

In June 2000, we asked each State and

Tribal Governor or Tribal leader to

submit their designation

recommendations and supporting

documentation to EPA. Because of the

uncertainties due to the ongoing

litigation on the ozone standard, we did

not notify States and Tribes of any

intended modifications and did not

designate areas at that time. After the

legal challenges to the ozone NAAQS

were resolved, we requested that States

and Tribes provide updated

recommendations and any additional

supporting documentation by July 15,

2003. EPA published a Notice of

Availability (NOA) announcing the

availability of the State and Tribal

recommendations in the FR on

September 8, 2003 (68 FR 52933). After

carefully evaluating each

recommendation and the supporting

provided an opportunity until February

6, 2004, for a demonstration as to why

our modification was not appropriate. A

NOA announcing the availability of our

letters was published in the FR on

December 10, 2003 (68 FR 68805). In

response to our December 3, 2003

letters, we received letters and

demonstrations from many States and

Tribes on why our modifications were

not appropriate. We evaluated each

letter and all of the timely technical

information provided to us before

arriving at the final decisions reflected

in today's rule. Some of the designations

reflect our modifications to the State or

Tribes' recommendations. Throughout

the designation process, we have

received letters from other interested

parties. We have placed these letters

and our responses to the substantive

issues raised by them in the docket.

Responses to significant comments

received on EAC areas are summarized

in this document.

Tribal designation activities are

covered under the authority of section

301(d) of the CAA. This provision of the

Act authorizes us to treat eligible Indian

Tribes in the same manner as States.

Pursuant to section 301(d)(2), we

promulgated regulations known as the

Tribal Authority Rule (TAR) on

February 12, 1999, that specify those

provisions of the CAA for which it is

appropriate to treat Tribes as States, (63

FR 7254), codified at 40 CFR part 49

(1999). Under the TAR, Tribes may

choose to develop and implement their

own CAA programs, but are not

required to do so. The TAR also

establishes procedures and criteria by

which Tribes may request from EPA a

determination of eligibility for such

treatment. The designations process

contained in section 107(d) of the CAA

is included among those provisions

determined appropriate by us for

treatment of Tribes in the same manner

as States. As authorized by the TAR,

Tribes may request an opportunity to

submit designation recommendations to

us. In cases where Tribes do not make

their own recommendations, EPA, in

consultation with the Tribes, will

promulgate the designation we deem

appropriate on their behalf. We invited

all Tribes to submit recommendations to

us. We worked with the Tribes that

requested an opportunity to submit

designation recommendations. Eligible

Tribes could choose to submit their own

recommendations and supporting

modifications as deemed necessary.

Under the TAR, Tribes generally are not

subject to the same submission

schedules imposed by the CAA on

States. However, we worked with Tribes

in scheduling interim activities and

final designation actions because of the

consent decree obligating us to have a

signed rule designating areas by April

15, 2004.

Today's designation action is a final

rule establishing designations for all

areas of the country. Today's action also

sets forth the classifications for subpart

2 ozone nonattainment areas. Section

181(a) provides that areas will be

classified at the time of designation.

This rulemaking fulfills those

requirements. Classifications are

discussed below.

Tribes Related to This Rule?

today's actions and decisions are

VIII. What Are the CAA Requirements

for Air Quality Classifications?

The CAA contains two sets of

provisions-subpart 1 and subpart 2-

that address planning and control

requirements for nonattainment areas.

(Both are found in title I, part D.)

Subpart 1 (which we refer to as "basic"

nonattainment contains general, less

prescriptive, requirements for

nonattainment areas for any pollutantincluding ozone-governed by a

NAAQS. Subpart 2 (which we refer to

as "classified" nonattaiment) provides

more specific requirements for ozone

nonattainment areas. 6 Some areas will

be subject only to the provisions of

subpart 1. Other areas will be subject to

NAAQS, design value is defined at 40 CFR

51.900(d). 8 In the Phase 2 implementation rule, we will

address the control obligations that apply to areas

under both subpart 1 and subpart 2.

the provisions of subpart 2. Section

172(a)(1) provides that EPA has the

discretion to classify areas subject only

to subpart 1. Under subpart 2, areas will

be classified based on each area's design

value. Control requirements are linked

to each classification. Areas with more

serious ozone pollution are subject to

more prescribed requirements. The

requirements are designed to bring areas

into attainment by their specified

attainment dates.

Under our 8-hour ozone

implementation rule, signed on April

15, 2004, an area will be classified

under subpart 2 based on its 8-hour

design value 7 if it has a 1-hour design

value at or above 0.121 ppm (the lowest

1-hour design value in Table 1 of

subpart 2). All other areas will be

covered under subpart 1. Section

172(a)(1) provides EPA with discretion

whether to classify areas under subpart

1 and we are not classifying subpart 1

areas, with one exception. As noted in

EPA's final rule on implementing the 8-

hour ozone standard (Phase 1

implementation rule), we are creating an

overwhelming transport classification

that will be available to subpart 1 areas

that demonstrate they are affected by

overwhelming transport of ozone and its

precursors and demonstrate they meet

the definition of a rural transport area in

section 182(h). No subpart 1 areas are

being classified in today's action;

however, for informational purposes, 8-

hour ozone nonattainment areas covered

under subpart 1 are identified as such

in the classification column in 40 CFR

part 81.

Any area with a 1-hour ozone design

value (based on the most recent 3 years

of data) that meets or exceeds the

statutory level of 0.121 ppm that

Congress specified in Table 1 of section

181 is classified under subpart 2 and is

subject to the control obligations

associated with its classification. 8

Subpart 2 areas are classified as

marginal, moderate, serious, or severe

based on the area's 8-hour design value

calculated using the most recent 3 years

of data. 9 As described in the Phase 1

implementation rule, since Table 1 is

based on 1-hour design values, we

promulgated in that rule a regulation

translating the thresholds in Table 1 of

section 181 from 1-hour values to 8-

hour values. (See Table 1, below,

"Classification for 8-Hour NAAQS"

from 40 CFR 51.903.)

9

At this time, there are no areas with design

values in the extreme classification for the 8-hour

ozone standard.

Five Percent Bump Down

Under section 181(a)(4), an ozone

nonattainment area may be reclassified

"if an area classified under paragraph

(1) (Table 1) would have been classified

in another category if the design value

in the area were 5 percent greater or 5

percent less than the level on which

such classification was based." The

section also states that "In making such

adjustment, the Administrator may

consider the number of exceedances of

the national primary ambient air quality

standard for ozone in the area, the level

of pollution transport between the area

and other affected areas, including both

intrastate and interstate transport, and

the mix of sources and air pollutants in

the area.

As noted in the November 6, 1991, FR

on designating and classifying areas, the

section 181(a)(4) provisions grant the

Administrator broad discretion in

making or determining not to make, a

reclassification (56 FR 56698). As part of

the 1991 action, EPA developed criteria

(see list below) to evaluate whether it is

appropriate to reclassify a particular

area. In 1991, EPA approved

reclassifications when the area met the

first requirement (a request by the State

to EPA) and at least some of the other

criteria and did not violate any of the

criteria (emissions, reductions, trends,

etc.). We intend to use this method and

these criteria once again to evaluate

reclassification requests under section

181(a)(4), with the minor changes noted

below. Because section 181(b)(3)

provides that an area may request a

higher classification and EPA must

grant it, these criteria primarily focus on

how we will assess requests for a lower

classification. We further discuss bump

ups below.

Request by State: The EPA does not

intend to exercise its authority to bump

down areas on EPA's own initiative.

Rather, EPA intends to rely on the State

to submit a request for a bump down.

A Tribe may also submit such a request

and, in the case of a multi-state

nonattainment area, all affected States

must submit the reclassification request.

Discontinuity: A five percent

reclassification must not result in an

illogical or excessive discontinuity

relative to surrounding areas. In

particular, in light of the area-wide

nature of ozone formation, a

reclassification should not create a

"donut hole" where an area of one

classification is surrounded by areas of

higher classification.

Attainment: Evidence should be

available that the proposed area would

be able to attain by the earlier date

specified by the lower classification in

the case of a bump down.

Emissions reductions: Evidence

should be available that the area would

be very likely to achieve the appropriate

total percent emission reduction

necessary in order to attain in the

shorter time period for a bump down.

Trends: Near- and long-term trends in

emissions and air quality should

support a reclassification. Historical air

quality data should indicate substantial

air quality improvement for a bump

down. Growth projections and emission

trends should support a bump down. In

addition, we will consider whether

vehicle miles traveled and other

indicators of emissions are increasing at

higher than normal rates.

Years of data: For the 8-hour ozone

standard, the 2001-2003 period is

central to determining classification.

This criterion has been updated to

reflect the latest air quality data

available to make the determinations

within the statute's 90 day limitation.

Limitations on Bump Downs

An area may only be reclassified to

the next lower classification. An area

cannot present data from other years as

justification to be reclassified to an even

lower classification. In addition, section

181(a)(4) does not permit moving areas

from subpart 2 into subpart 1.

The EPA applied these criteria in

1991. For example, our action to bump

down one area from severe to serious

considered trends in population and

emissions data, similarities to a nearby

serious area, disparity with a nearby

moderate area, the logical gradation of

attainment deadlines proceeding

outward from large metropolitan areas

upwind, and the likelihood that the area

would be able to attain the NAAQS in

the shorter time frame. In approving a

bump down to marginal, we noted that

air quality trends showed improvement

and recent air quality data indicated a

marginal status. In denying a bump

down, we analyzed local air quality

trends and emission sources and

considered long range transport from an

area with a much later attainment

deadline, which together made it

unlikely the candidate area could attain

the standard in the shorter time frame

associated with the lower classification.

Requests to bump down areas were also

denied due, in part, to concern that

transport of emissions from these areas

would make it less likely that

downwind nonattainment areas could

attain the standards in a timely fashion.

For additional information, see section

5, "Areas requesting a 5% downshift per

§ 181(a)(4) and EPA's response to those

requests," of the Technical Support

Document, October 1991 for the 1991

rule. [Docket A-90-42A.]

HeinOnline -- 69 Fed. Reg. 23863 2004
Federal Register/Vol. 69, No. 84/Friday, April 30, 2004/Rules and Regulations

Five Percent Bump Up

An ozone nonattainment area may

also be reclassified under section

181(a)(4) to the next higher

classification. For the reasons described

below ("Other Reasons to Consider

Bump Ups"), we believe some areas

with design values close to the next

higher classification may not be able to

attain within the period allowed by

their classification. We encourage States

to request reclassification upward where

the State finds that an area may need

more time to attain than their

classification would permit. In addition,

EPA will consider bumping up areas

subject to the five percent provision on

our own initiative where there is

evidence that an area is unlikely to

attain within the period allowed by

their classification. In making this

determination, EPA would consider

criteria similar to that listed above

(adjusted to consider bump ups rather

than bump downs) regarding

discontinuity, attainment, emissions

reduction and trends. The following

areas have design values based on 2001-

2003 data that fall within five percent of

the next higher classification:

Marginal areas within five percent of

Moderate

Portland, ME; Atlanta, GA; BeaumontPort Arthur, TX; and Norfolk, VA

Moderate areas within five percent of

Serious

New York-New Jersey-Long Island,

NY-NJ-CT; Los Angeles-San

Bernardino Counties (W. Mojave),

CA; Baltimore, MD; ClevelandAkron-Lorain, OH; and HoustonGalveston -Brazoria, TX

Serious areas within five percent of

Severe-15

San Joaquin Valley, CA

Calculation of Five Percent

For an area to be eligible for a bump

down (or bump up) under section

181(a)(4), the area's design value must

be within five percent of the next lower

(or higher) classification. For example,

an area with a moderate design value of

0.096 ppm (or less) would be eligible to

request a bump down because five

percent less than 0.096 ppm is 0.091

ppm, a marginal design value. 10 An area

with a moderate design value of 0.102

ppm (or more) would be eligible for a

bump up because five percent more

than 0.102 ppm is 0.107 ppm, a serious

design value. As a result, the following

areas may be eligible to request a bump

down: moderate areas with a design

value of 0.096 ppm or less; serious areas

1 0

See EPA's "Guideline on Data Handling

Conventions for the 8-Hour Ozone NAAQS" (12

98) and appendix I to 40 CFR part 50.

with a design value of 0.112 ppm or

less; and severe-17 areas with a design

value of 0.133 ppm or less. Similarly,

for bump ups, the following areas may

be eligible: marginal areas with a design

value of 0.088 ppm or more; moderate

areas with a design value of 0.102 ppm

or more; and serious areas with a design

value of 0.115 ppm or more.

Timing of the Five Percent

Reclassifications

The notice of availability for this rule

permits States to submit five percent

reclassification requests within 30 days

of the effective date of the designations

and classifications. The effective date is

June 15 which means that

reclassification requests must be

submitted by July 15, 2004. This

relatively short time frame is necessary

because section 181(a)(4) only

authorizes the Administrator to make

such reclassifications within 90 days

after the initial classification. Thus, the

Governor or eligible Tribal governing

body of any area that wishes to pursue

a reclassification should submit all

requests and supporting documentation

to the EPA Regional office by July 15,

2004. We will make a decision by

September 15, 2004.

Other Reasons To Consider Bump Ups

We encourage States to consider a

voluntary bump up in cases where the

State finds that an area may need more

time to attain the 8-hour NAAQS than

its classification would permit. In

addition to the reclassification provision

of section 181(a)(4), a State can request

a higher classification under section

181(b)(3) of the CAA. This provision

directs EPA to grant a State's request for

a higher classification and to publish

notice of the request and EPA's

approval. In addition, we are

interpreting section 181(b)(3) to allow a

State with an area covered under

subpart 1 to request a reclassification to

a subpart 2 classification.

We note that it is difficult to

determine when an area will be able to

attain the NAAQS in advance of State

development of attainment plans. These

plans are based on high-resolution local

air quality modeling, refined emissions

inventories, use of later air quality data,

and detailed analyses of the impacts and

costs of potential local control

measures. As noted earlier, we are

classifying nonattainment areas subject

to subpart 2 based on the most recent

ozone design values at the time of

designation, the 2001-2003 period.

Because of year-to-year variations in

meteorology, this snapshot in time may

not be representative of the normal

magnitude of problems that some areas

may face.

The EPA's analysis in the proposed

Interstate Air Quality Rule (IAQR) uses

design values taken from the 2000-2002

period, rather than the 2001-2003 data

used in the classification process. At the

time the IAQR modeling was completed,

2000-2002 was the latest period which

was available for determining

designation compliance with the

NAAQS. Concentrations of ozone in

2010 were estimated by applying the

relative change in model predicted

ozone from 2001 to 2010 with the 8-

hour ozone design values (2000-2002).

The IAQR base case analysis (which

assumes existing control requirements

only) projects ozone values in 2010 for

several areas for example, Baltimore,

Houston, New York and Philadelphiathat are high enough to suggest that the

areas may be unable to attain by 2010,

given our current information on the

potential for additional controls. Yet, as

a result of their classification, these

areas are required to adopt a plan to

attain the 8-hour ozone standard earlier

than the 2010 ozone season. Atlanta has

a projected 2010 ozone value much

closer to the standard, but has an

attainment date prior to the 2007 ozone

season. Thus, the IAQR analysis, based

on the 2000-2002 period, suggests that

States should evaluate whether certain

areas may need more time to attain.

States should consider in their local air

quality modeling whether an area's

projected air quality level would be

higher if the projection were based on

different three-year base periods. While

we recognize that future local analyses

for specific nonattainment areas may

show different results than the regional

IAQR analysis, we encourage States to

consider requesting a higher

classification for areas that the State

believes need more time to attain,

especially in cases where existing

modeling analysis and information on

potential controls suggests more time is

needed than their classification would

permit.

IX. What Action Is EPA Taking To

Defer the Effective Date of

Nonattainment Designations for EAC

Areas?

This section discusses EPA's final

action with respect to deferring the

effective date of nonattainment

designations for areas of the country

that do not meet the 8-hour ozone

NAAQS and are participating in the

EAC program. By December 31, 2002,

we entered into compacts with 33

communities. To receive this deferral,

these EAC areas have agreed to reduce

ground-level ozone pollution earlier

23864

HeinOnline -- 69 Fed. Reg. 23864 2004
Federal Register/Vol. 69, No. 84/Friday, April 30, 2004/Rules and Regulations

than the CAA would require. This final

rule for compact areas addresses several

key aspects of the proposed rule,

including deferral of the effective date

of nonattainment designation for certain

compact areas; progress of compact

areas toward completing their

milestones; final action for compact

areas; EPA's schedule for taking further

action to continue to defer the effective

date of nonattainment designations, if

appropriate; and consequences for

compact areas that do not meet a

milestone. In this action, we have added

regulatory text to clarify specific

requirements in part 81 for compact

areas and to identify actions that we

will take to address any failed

milestones. Finally, we have responded

to the significant comments on the

proposed rule.

A. When Did EPA Propose the First

Deferred Effective Date of

Nonattainm ent Designations?

On December 16, 2003 (68 FR 70108),

we published a proposed rule to defer

the effective date of air quality

nonattainment designations for EAC

areas that do not meet the 8-hour ozone

NAAQS. The proposal also described

the compact approach, the requirements

for areas participating in the program,

and the impacts of the program on these

areas. Compact areas have agreed to

reduce ground-level ozone pollution

earlier than the CAA would require.

Please refer to the proposed rule for a

detailed discussion and background

information on the development of the

compact program, what compact areas

are required to do, and the impacts of

the program.

Table 2 describes the milestones and

submissions that compact areas are

required to complete to continue

eligibility for a deferred effective date of

nonattainment designation for the 8-

hour ozone standard.

B. What Progress Are CompactAreas

Making Toward Completing Their

Milestones?

In this section we describe the status

of the compact areas' progress toward

meeting their compact milestones. In

general, these areas have made

satisfactory progress toward timely

completion of their milestones. As

reported in the December 16, 2003

proposal, all 33 communities met the

June 16, 2003 milestone, which required

areas to submit a list and description of

local control measures each area

considered for adoption and

implementation. A compiled list, as

well as highlights, of these local

measures is found on EPA's Web site for

compact areas at http.'//www.epa.gov/

ttn/ naaqs/ozone/eac/

index.htm#EA Csum mary. By December

31, 2003, compact areas reported the

status of these measures by identifying

the local measures still under

consideration at that time, the estimated

emissions reductions expected from

these measures, and the schedule for

implementation. A summary of the local

measures as reported in December 2003

is presented on EPA's EAC Web site at

http.'//www.epa.gov/ttn/ naaqs/ozone/

eac/20031231

eac-measuresjull-list.pdf.

By March 31, 2004, compact areas

submitted local plans, which included

measures for adoption that are specific,

quantified, and permanent, and if

approved by EPA, will be federally

enforceable as part of the SIP. These

plans also included specific

implementation dates for the local

controls, as well as a technical

assessment of whether the area could

attain the 8-hour ozone NAAQS by the

December 31, 2007 milestone, which is

described in Table 2. The local plans for

all compact areas are posted on the EAC

Web site at: http.'//www.epa.gov/ttn

Inaaqs/ozone/eac/#List.

The EPA reviewed all of the local

plans submitted by March 31, 2004 and

determined that most of the plans were

acceptable. With respect to control

strategies, a number of areas are relying

on measures to be adopted by the State,

and are committed to implement these

measures by 2005. In many cases,

particularly in the southeast, the MAC

areas demonstrated that they can attain

the 8-hour ozone standard by December

2007 without implementation of local

controls. In general, the technical

demonstrations of attainment were

acceptable; however, some of the 33

communities did not project attainment

in 2007 (the attainment test) based on

modeling, unless they considered

additional factors to supplement their

analysis (i.e., weight of evidence). In

evaluating a State's weight of evidence

determination for an area, we consider

the results of the modeled, attainment

test-for all EAC areas, a demonstration

of attainment in 2007-along with

additional information, such as

predicted air quality improvement,

meteorological influences, and

additional measures not modeled. Our

modeling guidance indicates that the

farther an area is from the level of the

standard, the more compelling the

additional information needs to be in

order to demonstrate that the area will

attain the standard. Based on our

analysis of the technical information

provided, we believe that some areas

did not present as strong a case as other

areas to demonstrate attainment by

December 2007. Three areas in

Tennessee, Knoxville, Memphis and

Chattanooga each developed attainment

demonstrations that generally conform

to our modeling guidance. However, in

reviewing and analyzing the local plans

for these areas, we determined that

Knoxville, Memphis and Chattanooga

did not pass the modeled attainment

test and the predicted air quality

improvement test. In addition, our

review of meteorological influences for

the three areas was inconclusive; and

these areas did not provide additional

measures not already modeled. In

23865

HeinOnline -- 69 Fed. Reg. 23865 2004
Federal Register/Vol. 69, No. 84/Friday, April 30, 2004/Rules and Regulations

addition to the technical analysis, we

reviewed the strength of the control

strategies each EAC area proposed in

their March 31, 2004 plans. We

determined that the control measures

submitted by these three areas could

have been strengthened, and the Agency

expected more local measures.

Therefore, EPA determined that the

States' technical assessments for each of

these areas and their suite of measures

were not acceptable. The only other two

compact areas that did not pass the

modeled attainment test, the Denver,

Colorado area and the Triad

(Green sboro-Win ston-S alem-High

Point), North Carolina area, provided

more meaningful local control measures

than the three Tennessee compact areas.

Based on our review and evaluation of

these local plans, we have determined

that Knoxville, Memphis and

Chattanooga do not meet the March 31,

2004 milestone. In accordance with the

Early Action Protocol and agency

guidance, all EAC areas must meet all

compact milestones, including this most

recent one, to be eligible for the deferred

effective date of designation.

Consequently, today, these three areas

are being designated nonattainment,

effective June 15, 2004, and are subject

to full planning requirements of title I,

part D of the CAA. For the other EAC

areas not meeting the 8-hour ozone

standard, which we determined have

complied with the March 2004

milestone, are being designated

nonattainment with a deferred effective

date of September 30, 2005. By that

date, we intend to take notice and

comment rulemaking and promulgate

approval or disapproval of these plans

as SIP revisions. The local plans that are

approved at that time will be eligible for

an extension of the deferred effective

date. If EPA disapproves any local plans

at that time, the nonattainment

designation will become effective

immediately. Our evaluations of all

local plans submitted by March 31,

2004, are included in the TSD for this

rulemaking.

C. What Is Today's Final Action for

Compact A reas?

Today, we are issuing the first of three

deferrals of the effective date of the

nonattainment designation for any

HeinOnline -- 69 Fed. Reg. 23868 2004
Federal Register/Vol. 69, No. 84/Friday, April 30, 2004/Rules and Regulations

compact area that does not meet the 8-

hour ozone NAAQS and would

otherwise be designated nonattainment,

but has met all compact milestones

through the March 31, 2004

submission." We are deferring until

September 30, 2005, the effective date of

the 8-hour ozone nonattainment

designation for these compact area

counties which are listed in 40 CFR part

81 (included at the end of this

document).

As described earlier in this notice, we

analyzed information provided by the

States to determine whether a county

should be included as part of a

designated nonattainment area. This

information included such factors as

population density, traffic congestion,

meteorological conditions, and

pollution transport. We analyzed the

factors for each county participating in

an EAC to determine whether a county

should be included in the

nonattainment area. Therefore, some

portions of compact areas are designated

unclassifiable/attainment and some are

designated nonattainment.

The EAC areas that EPA is designating

in today's rule as attainment for the 8-

hour ozone NAAQS have agreed to

continue participating in their compacts

and meet their obligations on a

voluntary basis. However, two of the

five counties in the compact for the

Mountain Area of Western North

Carolina have decided to withdraw

because the area is monitoring

attainment. The remaining three

counties are continuing to participate in

the agreement.

D. What Is EPA's Schedule for Taking

FurtherAction To Continue To Defer

the Effective Date of Nonattainment

Designation for Compact Areas?

As discussed in the proposed rule,

prior to the time the first deferral

expires, we intend to take further action

to propose and, as appropriate,

promulgate a second deferred effective

date of the nonattainment designation

for those areas that continue to fulfill all

compact obligations. Prior to the time

the second deferral expires, we would

propose and, as appropriate, promulgate

a third deferral for those areas that

continue to meet all compact

milestones. Before the third deferral

expires shortly after December 31, 2007,

we intend to determine whether the

compact areas have attained the 8-hour

ozone NAAQS and have met all

compact milestones. By April 2008, we

11 In a few instances, some of the counties

participating in EACs were determined not to be

part of the nonattainment area and were designated

attainment. In such cases, the effective date of the

attainment designation is not deferred.

will issue our determination. If the area

has not attained the standard, the

nonattainment designation will take

effect. If it has attained the standard,

EPA will issue an attainment

designation for the area. Any compact

area that has not attained the NAAQS

and has an effective nonattainment

designation will be subject to full

planning requirements of title I, part D

of the CAA, and the area will be

required to submit a revised attainment

demonstration SIP within 1 year of the

effective date of the designation.

E. What Action Will EPA Take if a

Compact A rea Does Not Meet a

Milestone?

As described in the December 16,

2003 proposed rule (68 FR 70111), the

compact program was based on a

number of principles as described in the

EAC protocol.' 2 One of these principles

is to provide safeguards to return areas

to traditional SIP requirements for

nonattainment areas should an area fail

to comply with the terms of the

compact. For example, if a compact area

with a deferred effective date fails to

meet one of the milestones, we would

take steps immediately to remove the

deferred effective date of its

nonattainment designation.

Today, we are promulgating

regulatory text, which specifies the

milestones that EAC areas are required

to complete to be eligible for the

deferred effective date, as well as certain

actions that the Administrator will take

when EAC areas either comply, or do

not comply, with the terms of the

compact.

F. What Comments Did EPA Receive on

the December 16, 2003 Proposal and on

the June 2, 2003 Proposed

Implementation Rule Specific to

Compacts?

We received a number of comments

on the proposed rule for compact areas.

We have responded to the significant

comments in this section. Our responses

address various aspects of the compact

program: (1) Legal concerns; (2) the

designations process for EAC areas,

including the anticipated schedule for

removal of the deferred effective date of

the nonattainment designation for any

compact area that fails to meet a

milestone; (3) concerns about the

compact process; (4) transportation/

12 "Protocol for Early Action Compacts Designed

to Achieve and Maintain the 8-hour Ozone

Standard", Texas Commission on Environmental

Quality (TCEQ), March 2002 (Protocol). The EPA

endorsed the Protocol in a letter dated June 19,

2002, from Gregg Cooke, Administrator, EPA Region

VI, to Robert Huston, TCEQ. The Prtocol was

revised December 11, 2002 based on comments

from EPA.

fuels-related comments; and (5) need for

regulatory language. Other compactrelated comments not addressed in this

document are included in the RTC

document, which is located in the

docket for this rulemaking (OAR-2003-

0090) and on EPA's technical Web site

for early action compacts at: http.//

www.epa.gov/ttn/naaqs/ozone/eac/

#RMNotices.

In addition, we received a number of

EAC-related comments on the June 2,

2003 proposal for implementing the 8-

hour ozone standard. We have

addressed these comments in the same

EAC RTC document, which may be

found at the location noted above.

1. Support for and Opposition to Early

Action Compacts

Comment: Many commenters

expressed support for the compact

process, the goal of clean air sooner, the

incentives and flexibility the program

provides for encouraging early

reductions of ozone-forming pollution,

and the deferred effective date of

nonattainment designation. However, a

number of commenters opposed the

EAC program. Several of these

commenters expressed concern about

the legality of the program and

primarily about the deferral of the

effective date of the nonattainment

designation for these areas. Although all

of these commenters were supportive of

the goal of addressing proactively the

public health concerns associated with

ozone pollution, the commenters state

that the EAC program is not authorized

by the CAA. All of these commenters

indicated that EPA lacks authority

under the CAA to defer the effective

date of a nonattainment designation. In

addition, these commenters state that

EPA lacks authority to enter into EACs

areas and lacks authority to allow areas

to be relieved of obligations under title

I, part D of the CAA while these areas

are violating the 8-hour ozone standard

or are designated nonattainment for that

standard.

Response: We continue to believe that

the compact program, as designed, gives

local areas the flexibility to develop

their own approach to meeting the 8-

hour ozone standard, provided the

participating communities are serious in

their commitment to control emissions

from local sources earlier than the CAA

would otherwise require. By involving

diverse stakeholders, including

representatives from industry, local and

State governments, and local

environmental and citizens' groups, a

number of communities are discussing

for the first time the need for regional

cooperation in solving air quality

problems that affect the health and

23869

HeinOnline -- 69 Fed. Reg. 23869 2004
Federal Register/Vol. 69, No. 84/Friday, April 30, 2004/Rules and Regulations

welfare of its citizens. People living in

these areas that realize reductions in

pollution levels sooner will enjoy the

health benefits of cleaner air sooner

than might otherwise occur. In today's

rule we are codifying the specific

requirements in part 81 of the CFR to

clarify what is required of compact areas

to be eligible for deferral of the effective

date of their nonattainment designation

and what actions EPA intends to take in

response to areas that meet the

milestones and areas that do not meet

the milestones.

As discussed earlier in this notice,

EPA and nine environmental

organizations entered into a Consent

Decree on March 13, 2003, which

requires EPA to issue the designations

by April 15, 2004. Related to that

agreement, we have been discussing

with these parties the actions that

compact areas have committed to take to

implement measures on an accelerated

schedule to attain the 8-hour ozone

standard by December 31, 2007. On

April 5, 2004, these environmental

organizations and EPA entered into a

joint stipulation to modify the deadline

in the consent decree. The parties

agreed to extend the deadline for the

effective date of designations with

respect to each area which EPA

determines meets the requirements of

the Protocol and EPA guidance.

Comment: One commenter expressed

concern about the health impact and the

effect on air quality of delaying the

effectiveness of nonattainment.

Response: The compact areas that are

violating the standard are designated

nonattainment (with deferred effective

date), which means EPA is

acknowledging the air quality problem

of the area and the health impact on the

community. However, these areas are

committed to early reductions and early

implementation of control measures that

make sense for the local area. The

Agency believes this proactive approach

involving multiple, diverse stakeholders

is beneficial to the citizens of the area

by raising awareness of the need to

adopt and implement measures that will

reduce emissions and improve air

quality.

2. Designations Process for Compact

Areas

Comment: Several commenters

expressed concern about EPA's process

for designating areas that are

participating in a compact. In addition,

a number of commenters also were

confused about the following statement

in the June 2, 2003 proposed 8-hour

implementation rule: "States are

advised that if EPA determines that any

portion of a compact area should

become part of an 8-hour ozone

nonattainment area, that portion would

no longer be eligible for participation in

the Early Action Compact, and the

effective date of the nonattainment

designation would not be deferred" (68

FR 32860, June 2, 2003). Some of these

commenters noted that the language, as

written, could be interpreted to mean if

any EAC area becomes designated as

nonattainment for the 8-hour ozone

standard, the EAC is no longer valid. A

number of commenters submitted

recommendations to EPA for either

including or excluding certain

participating EAC counties from the

designated area.

Response: In determining the

boundary for the designated area, we

applied the same procedure as we did

for areas that are not participating in an

EAC, as described elsewhere in this

document. The commenters are

referring to language in section VIII.A.3

of the June 2, 2003 proposed rule for

implementing the 8-hour ozone

standard at 68 FR 32860. At the time we

entered into compact agreements with

the local communities by December

2002, and at the time we proposed the

8-hour implementation rule, we had not

made a decision as to which

participating counties would be

included in a nonattainment area.

Therefore, at that time we were not able

to determine the appropriate boundary

for the area that would be eligible for a

deferral of the effective date of

nonattainment designation. We agree

with the commenters that the preamble

language in the proposed 8-hour

implementation rule is not clear. The

language was intended to be applied to

a portion of a compact area that is

adjacent to or part of an area that is

violating the 1-hour ozone standard (or

otherwise did not qualify for

participation in a compact), and

subsequently is designated

nonattainment for the 8-hour ozone

standard.

An example is the Catawba EAC,

which includes York County, SC, as

well as Chester, Lancaster and Union

Counties, SC. York County, which has

one monitor that is attaining the 8-hour

standard, is in the Charlotte-GastoniaRock Hill MSA. We have examined all

applicable air quality-related factors in

our guidance and concluded that part of

the county is contributing to a violation

in the MSA. Based on our analysis,

therefore, we are designating this county

as a partial county nonattainment area,

in the 8-hour ozone nonattainment area

for Charlotte-Gastonia-Rock Hill. As we

noted earlier, nonattainment is defined

in the CAA as an area that is violating

the NAAQS or is contributing to a

nearby area that is violating the

NAAQS. York County ranks high in

population growth (25 percent) and the

predicted growth from 2000 to 2010 is

12 percent, approximately 20,000

additional population. York County

ranks second and third for VOC and

NOx emissions in the CMSA, and 94

percent of its population of workers

drives to work within the CMSA. York

County may continue in the Catawba

compact along with the other three

counties as a voluntary participant;

however, the nonattainment portion of

York County is not eligible for a

deferred effective date. Moreover,

because the other counties in the

Charlotte-Gastonia-Rock Hill

nonattainment area are not participating

in the EAC process, the Charlotte area,

which includes York County, is not

eligible for a deferred effective date. In

no way does EPA intend for the

Catawba compact to be revoked. For

EPA's responses to comments regarding

designation and boundary issues for

specific EAC areas, see the RTC

document and the TSD for this

rulemaking.

Comment: A number of commenters

recommended that EPA clarify exactly

when a compact area would be

designated nonattainment if it fails to

meet a milestone.

Response: Today, we have determined

that a number of compact areas have

met the March 31, 2004 milestone (plan

of local measures); therefore, the

effective date of nonattainment

designation for these areas is deferred

until September 30, 2005. In Table 3 we

have listed the air quality designations

and the effective dates for all counties

participating in EACs. In addition,

today, we have determined that some

compact areas have not met the March

31, 2004 milestone. A discussion of our

assessment of these local plans is

provided elsewhere in this document.

We are designating these areas as

nonattainment, which is effective June

15, 2004.

In another section of this document,

we are promulgating regulatory text that

clarifies the actions we would take in

the event a compact area does not meet

subsequent milestones. We have

summarized those actions below.

If an EAC area fails to meet a

milestone, in accordance with our

guidance, we intend to take action as

soon as practicable to remove the

deferral, which would trigger the

effective date of the nonattainment

designation. If a State fails to submit a

SIP revision for a compact area,

consisting of the adopted local plan and

the demonstration of attainment by

December 31, 2004, we intend to take

23870

HeinOnline -- 69 Fed. Reg. 23870 2004
Federal Register/Vol. 69, No. 84/Friday, April 30, 2004/Rules and Regulations

action as soon as practicable (e.g.,

January 2005) to remove the deferral for

that area, which would trigger the

effective date of the nonattainment

designation and, thus, also the

classification, rather than letting the

designation take effect automatically on

September 30, 2005. The State would be

required to submit a revised attainment

demonstration within 1 year of the

effective date of the nonattainment

designation.

Assuming EPA takes rulemaking

action to continue to defer the effective

date of the nonattainment designation

for compact areas, if a compact area fails

the December 31, 2005 milestone

(complete implementation of local

measures), we would take action as soon

as practicable (e.g., by March 31, 2006)

to remove the deferral which would

trigger the effective date of their

nonattainment designation and, thus,

also their classification, rather than

letting the designation take effect

automatically at the next deferred date.

The State would be required to submit

a revised attainment demonstration

within 1 year of the effective date of the

nonattainment designation.

Similarly, for any area that does not

meet the June 30, 2006 milestone

(assessment of air quality improvement

and emissions reductions from

implementation of measures), we would

take action as soon as practicable (e.g.,

by September 30, 2006) to remove the

deferral which would trigger the

effective date of their nonattainment

designation and, thus, also their

classification. If the area, based on the

most recent 3 years of quality-assured

monitoring data, is not attaining the 8-

hour ozone standard by December 31,

2007, we would take action by April 15,

2008, to remove the deferral which

would trigger the effective date of their

nonattainment designation and, where

applicable, classification.

Comment: Some commenters strongly

recommended that if the compact

measures fail to be implemented or fail

to achieve targeted emissions

reductions, the compact area should

immediately be designated as

nonattainment with a subpart 2

classification and be required to comply

with all applicable obligations within

the original timeframe.

Response: In another section of this

document, we are promulgating

regulatory text that clarifies the actions

we intend to take in the event a compact

area does not meet subsequent

milestones. Compact areas are

designated as nonattainment and the

effective date of that designation is

deferred. The deferral for any areas that

do not meet or fail any milestone will

be removed as soon as practicable

which would trigger the effective date of

their nonattainment designation and,

thus, also the classification consistent

with the final 8-hour implementation

rule. If called for by the area's

classification, these areas will be

required to submit a revised attainment

demonstration within 1 year of the

effective date of designation and will be

subject to all applicable requirements of

title I, part D of the CAA, to be

implemented within a time frame

consistent with the area's classification.

Comment: One commenter believes

the second rolling deferred effective

date is not necessary and should be

eliminated. According to the

commenter, there should be only two

separate deferral dates promulgated for

nonattainment designations for areas

where controls would be implemented

by September 30, 2005, and no other

milestones (the June 2006 progress

assessment) would be needed between

implementation of controls and

attainment.

Response: The June 2006 milestone,

which is one of the compact

requirements that would be subject to

the second deferred effective date

(December 31, 2006), provides that

States report progress of EAC areas in

implementing adopted measures and

assess improvements in air quality and

reductions in NOx and VOC emissions.

The second deferral is a checkpoint that

is needed to ensure that areas are

making progress toward attainment.

This milestone can be one of the

progress reports, but it is considered a

milestone because EPA believes it is

important to have a checkpoint between

implementation of measures by

December 2005 and attainment in

December 2007.

Comment: A number of commenters

were concerned about EPA's statement

in the proposal that the Agency would

commit to not redesignate areas that

subsequently violate the 8-hour ozone

NAAQS to nonattainment, provided the

area continues to meet all compact

milestones and requirements.

Response: In the proposed rule at FR

68 70113, EPA did state its intention to

commit to not redesignate EAC areas to

nonattainment that are designated

attainment in April 2004. We realize

that our shorthand phrasing did not

properly convey our intent. To clarify,

in deciding whether to redesignate an

EAC area to nonattainment, EPA will

consider the factors in section

107(d)(3)(a) of the CAA. If an EAC area

continues to meet its compact

milestones, EPA believes those factors

should weigh in favor of not

redesignating the area to nonattainment

immediately, but rather waiting to see if

the programs the area puts in place will

bring it back into attainment.

3. Transportation/Fuels-Related

Comments

Comment: The EPA received a

number of comments expressing

concern that lack of transportation

conformity in EAC areas will negatively

impact air quality in these areas. In

addition, several commented that since

EAC areas are not eligible to receive

Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality

Improvement Program (CMAQ) funding,

projects to reduce congestion and,

thereby, reduce mobile source

emissions, would not occur. Another

commenter suggested that EPA work

with the U.S. Department of

Transportation (DOT) to revise the

TEA-21 so that EAC areas are eligible to

receive CMAQ funding.

Response: The commenters are correct

that EAC areas violating the 8-hour

ozone standard, which would otherwise

have a nonattainment date effective June

1, 2004, will not be subject to

transportation or general conformity

requirements for the 8-hour standard in

2005. The EAC protocol does not

require EAC areas to meet CAA

transportation conformity requirements,

since, as noted, these requirements

apply one year after the 8-hour

nonattainment designation becomes

effective.

However, continuing to defer 8-hour

conformity requirements is contingent

upon the area's ability to demonstrate

adherence to the compact. Consistent

with 40 CFR 93.102(d) and CAA section

176(c)(6), conformity for the 8-hour

ozone standard will not apply, provided

the area meets all of the terms and

milestones of its compact between 2004

and 2007. At any point, if a milestone

is missed, the nonattainment

designation becomes effective and

conformity for the 8-hour standard will

be required one year after the effective

date of EPA's nonattainment

designation.

The EAC areas that are maintenance

areas for the 1-hour standard will be

subject to conformity until 1 year after

the effective date of designation of the

8-hour standard. At that time the 1-hour

standard will be revoked. Thus, for an

EAC area that meets all of its milestones

and whose deferral is lifted in April

2008, the 8-hour attainment designation

would become effective in April 2008,

and the 1-hour standard would be

revoked 1 year later or, April 2009. For

an EAC area that is also a 1-hour

maintenance area under § 175A, the area

would be subject to both its 1-hour

maintenance plan and 1-hour

23871

HeinOnline -- 69 Fed. Reg. 23871 2004
Federal Register/Vol. 69, No. 84/Friday, April 30, 2004/Rules and Regulations

transportation conformity until April

2009.

Finally, EPA would like to clarify that

transportation conformity is not a

control measure similar to voluntary

control programs funded through

CMAQ dollars. Rather, it establishes a

process for state and local governments

to consider the broader emissions

impacts of planned highway and transit

activities to ensure that Federal funding

and approval goes to those

transportation activities that are

consistent with air quality goals.

Comment: One commenter stated that

they were reluctant to enter into a

compact agreement knowing that they

would not receive CMAQ funds. Several

commenters also suggested that EPA

provide EAC areas with tangible

financial incentives to proactively

improve their air quality, as well as

work with the DOT to revise the

Transportation Efficiency Act (TEA) so

that it allows EAC areas to receive

CMAQ funding.

Response: The commenters are correct

that EAC areas are not eligible to receive

CMAQ funding under current law. The

CMAQ apportionment formula in TEA21 contains no provisions to allow

inclusion of EAC areas into the formula

and thus into the authorized CMAQ

levels for each state. Thus, until and

unless the 8-hour ozone nonattainment

designation is effective, areas cannot be

eligible for CMAQ funding, absent a

change in the law.

The primary incentive for many areas

entering into an EAC is deferral of a

nonattainment designation and major

requirements, such as transportation

conformity and NSR. It is true that

compact areas are subject to SIP

requirements, but not to other such

major requirements. The EPA's

interpretation is that Congress intended

to link the obligations that come with a

nonattainment designation to CMAQ

funding. The purpose of the CMAQ

program is to help those areas burdened

with the significant obligations of the

CAA attain the NAAQS as expeditiously

as possible. Under the current CMAQ

program, an EAC area would not be able

to receive CMAQ funds because it

would not be designated as a

nonattainment or maintenance area.

Since TEA-21 has not been

reauthorized as of this writing, EPA

cannot postulate on whether it will

contain a new provision allowing

compact areas to receive CMAQ

funding. The reauthorization bills

passed by the Senate and House contain

no such provision.

Comment: A number of EAC areas are

considering the addition of cetane

additives to fuel for increased fuel

efficiency. Several commenters

expressed concern about the focus on

diesel cetane. They have expressed

these concerns in detail in earlier

correspondence with both the Agency

and the Ozone Transport Commission.

Response: Clean fuel programs have

been an integral part of the nation's

strategy to reduce smog-forming

emissions and other harmful pollutants,

including air toxics from our nation's

air. For example, the Federal

reformulated gasoline program (RFG)

and lower volatility fuels have been cost

effective and have provided significant

and immediate reductions in air

pollution levels throughout the nation.

The CAA also allows States, under

specified circumstances, to design and

implement their own clean fuel

programs. Several EAC areas are

considering such programs including

cetane improvement programs. Cetane

improvement programs have the

potential to contribute emission

reductions needed for progress toward

attainment and maintenance of the

NAAQS. (See EPA Technical Report

entitled, "The Effect of Cetane Number

Increase Due to Additives on NOx

Emissions from Heavy-Duty Highway

Engines", EPA-420-R-03-002,

February 2003. This document can be

downloaded from: http://www.epa.gov/

otaq/models/analysis.htm. The EPA is

now in the process of developing

guidance to help States properly

quantify the benefits of cetane

improvement programs for their areas.

In selecting possible clean fuel

programs and other potential ozone

control measures, states will engage in

a careful and extensive process. It is

during this process that States should

properly consider and evaluate their air

quality needs, the air quality benefits of

specific measures, costs, ease of

implementation, enforceability and

other issues and factors like those the

commenter raises with respect to cetane

programs. In addition, the States must

involve the public in the selection of

control measures, through hearings and

opportunities to comment.

4. Regulatory Text

Comment: Several commenters

strongly recommended that EPA include

regulatory text in the final rule. One

commenter, in particular, suggested that

EPA do the following:

1. Codify the rolling deferred effective

date so that it is enforceable and that

areas are held accountable if they miss

a milestone;

2. include in the final rule all

deadlines and milestones specified in

our EAC guidance;

3. codify the September 30, 2005

deadline for EPA action to approve/

disapprove SIP submittals;

4. codify the December 31, 2008

deadline for States to submit a revised

attainment demonstration SIP for EAC

areas that fail to attain by December 31,

2007.

Response: Based on the

recommendations of several

commenters, we have added regulatory

text to the final rule. This language

codifies the EAC program into part 81

of the CFR. In addition, the regulatory

text clarifies what is required of

compact areas and the consequences to

these areas if they do not meet a

milestone.

X. How Do Designations Affect Indian

Country?

All counties, partial counties or Air

Quality Control Regions listed in the

table at the end of this document are

designated as indicated, and include

Indian country geographically located

within such areas, except as otherwise

indicated.

As mentioned earlier in this

document, EPA's guidance for

determining nonattainment area

boundaries presumes that the larger of

the 1-hour nonattainment area, CMSA

or MSA with a violating monitor forms

the bounds of the nonattainment area

but that the size of the area can be larger

or smaller depending on contribution to

the violation from nearby areas and

other air quality-related technical

factors. In general, and consistent with

relevant air quality information, EPA

intends to include Indian country

encompassed within these areas as

within the boundaries of the area for

designation purposes to best protect

public health and welfare. The EPA

anticipates that in most cases relevant

air quality information will indicate that

areas of Indian country located within

CMSAs or MSAs should have the same

designation as the surrounding area.

However, based on the factors outlined

in our guidance, there may be instances

where a different designation is

appropriate.

A state recommendation for a

designation of an area that surrounds

Indian country does not dictate the

designation for Indian county. However,

the conditions that support a State's

designation recommendation, such as

air quality data and the location of

sources, may indicate the likelihood

that similar conditions exist for the

Indian county located in that area.

States generally have neither the

responsibility nor the authority for

planning and regulatory activities under

the CAA in Indian country.

Federal Register/Vol. 69, No. 84/Friday, April 30, 2004/Rules and Regulations

XI. Statutory and Executive Order

Reviews

Upon promulgation of a new or

revised NAAQS, the CAA requires EPA

to designate areas as attaining or not

attaining that NAAQS. The CAA then

specifies requirements for areas based

on whether such areas are attaining or

not attaining the NAAQS. In this final

rule, we assign designations to areas as

required. We also indicate the

classifications that apply as a matter of

law for areas designated nonattainment.

This rule also provides flexibility for

areas that have entered into a compact

and take early action to achieve

emissions reductions necessary to attain

the 8-hour ozone standard. This action

defers the effective date of the

nonattainment designation for these

areas and establishes regulations

governing future actions with respect to

these areas.

A. Executive Order 12866: Regulatory

Planning and Review

Under Executive Order 12866 (58 FR

51735, October 4, 1993), the Agency

must determine whether the regulatory

action is "significant" and, therefore,

subject to OMB review and the

requirements of the Executive Order.

The Order defines "significant

regulatory action" as one that is likely

to result in a rule that may:

(1) Have an annual effect on the

economy of $100 million or more or

adversely affect in a material way the

economy, a sector of the economy,

productivity, competition, jobs, the

environment, public health or safety, or

State, local, or Tribal governments or

communities;

(2) create a serious inconsistency or

otherwise interfere with an action taken

or planned by another agency;

(3) materially alter the budgetary

impact of entitlements, grants, user fees,

or loan programs or the rights and

obligations of recipients thereof; or

(4) raise novel legal or policy issues

arising out of legal mandates, the

President's priorities, or the principles

set forth in the Executive Order.

Pursuant to the terms of Executive

Order 12866, it has been determined

that this rule is not a "significant

regulatory action" because none of the

above factors applies. As such, this final

rule was not formally submitted to OMB

for review.

B. Paperwork Reduction Act

This action does not impose an

information collection burden under the

provisions of the Paperwork Reduction

Act, 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq. This rule

responds to the requirement to

promulgate air quality designations after

promulgation of a NAAQS. This

requirement is prescribed in the CAA

section 107 of Title 1. The present final

rule does not establish any new

information collection burden apart

from that required by law. Burden

means the total time, effort, or financial

resources expended by persons to

generate, maintain, retain, or disclose or

provide information to or for a Federal

agency. This includes the time needed

to review instructions; develop, acquire,

install, and utilize technology and

systems for the purposes of collecting,

validating, and verifying information,

processing and maintaining

information, and disclosing and

providing information; adjust the

existing ways to comply with any

previously applicable instructions and

requirements; train personnel to be able

to respond to a collection of

information; search data sources;

complete and review the collection of

information; and transmit or otherwise

disclose the information. An agency

may not conduct or sponsor, and a

person is not required to respond to a

collection of information unless it

displays a currently valid OMB control

number. The OMB control numbers for

EPA's regulations in 40 CFR are listed

in 40 CFR part 9.

C. Regulatory Flexibility Act

The Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA)

generally requires an agency to prepare

a regulatory flexibility analysis of any

rule subject to notice and comment

rulemaking requirements under the

Administrative Procedures Act or any

other statute unless the agency certifies

the rule will not have a significant

economic impact on a substantial

number of small entities. Small entities

include small businesses, small

organizations, and small governmental

jurisdictions.

For purposes of assessing the impacts

of today's final rule on small entities,

small entity is defined as: (1) A small

business that is a small industrial entity

as defined in the U.S. Small Business

Administration (SBA) size standards.

(See 13 CFR 121.); (2) a small

governmental jurisdiction that is a

government of a city, county, town,

school district or special district with a

population of less than 50,000; and (3)

a small organization that is any not-forprofit enterprise which is independently

owned and operated and is not

dominant in its field.

The portion of this rule designating

areas for the 8-hour ozone NAAQS

indicating the classification for each

subpart 2 area designated

nonattainment, is not subject to the RFA

because it was not subject to notice and

comment rulemaking requirements. See

CAA section 107(d)(2)(B). This rule also

defers the effective date of the

nonattainment designation for areas that

implement control measures and

achieve emissions reductions earlier

than otherwise required by the CAA in

order to attain the 8-hour ozone

NAAQS. The deferral of the effective

date will not impose any requirements

on small entities. States and local areas

that have entered into compacts with

EPA have the flexibility to decide which

sources to regulate in their

communities.

After considering the economic

impacts of today's final rule on small

entities, I certify that this rule will not

have a significant economic impact on

a substantial number of small entities.

D. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act

Title II of the Unfunded Mandates

Reform Act of 1995 (UMRA), Public

Law 104-4, establishes requirements for

Federal agencies to assess the effects of

their regulatory actions on State, local,

and Tribal governments and the private

sector. Under section 202 of the UMRA,

EPA generally must prepare a written

statement, including a cost-benefit

analysis, for proposed and final rules

with "Federal mandates" that may

result in expenditures to State, local,

and Tribal governments, in the

aggregate, or to the private sector, of

$100 million or more in any one year.

Before promulgating an EPA rule for

which a written statement is needed,

section 205 of the UMRA generally

requires EPA to identify and consider a

reasonable number of regulatory

alternatives and adopt the least costly,

most cost-effective or least burdensome

alternative that achieves the objectives

of the rule. The provisions of section

205 do not apply when they are

inconsistent with applicable law.

Moreover, section 205 allows EPA to

adopt an alternative other than the least

costly, most cost-effective or least

burdensome alternative if the

Administrator publishes with the final

rule an explanation why that alternative

was not adopted. Before EPA establishes

any regulatory requirements that may

significantly or uniquely affect small

governments, including Tribal

governments, it must have developed

under section 203 of the UMRA a small

government agency plan. The plan must

provide for notifying potentially

affected small governments, enabling

officials of affected small governments

to have meaningful and timely input in

the development of EPA regulatory

proposals with significant Federal

intergovernmental mandates, and

23873

HeinOnline -- 69 Fed. Reg. 23873 2004
Federal Register/Vol. 69, No. 84/Friday, April 30, 2004/Rules and Regulations

informing, educating, and advising

small governments on compliance with

the regulatory requirements.

Today's final action does not include

a Federal mandate within the meaning

of UMRA that may result in

expenditures of $100 million or more in

any one year by either State, local, or

Tribal governments in the aggregate or

to the private sector, and therefore, is

not subject to the requirements of

sections 202 and 205 of the UMRA. It

does not create any additional

requirements beyond those of the 8-hour

National Ambient Air Quality Standards

(NAAQS) for Ozone (62 FR 38894; July

18, 1997), therefore, no UMRA analysis

is needed. This rule establishes the

application of the 8-hour ozone

standard and the designation for each

area of the country for the 8-hour

NAAQS for Ozone. The CAA requires

States to develop plans, including

control measures, based on their

designations and classifications. In this

rule, EPA is also deferring the effective

date of nonattainment designations for

certain areas that have entered into

compacts with us and is promulgating

regulations governing future actions

with respect to these areas.

One mandate that may apply as a

consequence of this action to all

designated nonattainment areas is the

requirement under CAA section 176(c)

and associated regulations to

demonstrate conformity of Federal

actions to SIPs. These rules apply to

Federal agencies and Metropolitan

Planning Organizations (MPOs) making

conformity determinations. The EPA

concludes that such conformity

determinations will not cost $100

million or more in the aggregate.

The EPA believes that any new

controls imposed as a result of this

action will not cost in the aggregate

$100 million or more annually. Thus,

this Federal action will not impose

mandates that will require expenditures

of $100 million or more in the aggregate

in any one year.

Nonetheless, EPA carried out

consultations with governmental

entities affected by this rule, including

States, Tribal governments, and local air

pollution control agencies.

E. Executive Order 13132: Federalism

Executive Order 13132, entitled

"Federalism" (64 FR 43255, August 10,

1999), requires EPA to develop an

accountable process to ensure "meaningful and timely input by State

and local officials in the development of

regulatory policies that have federalism

implications." "Policies that have

federalism implications" is defined in

the Executive Order to include

regulations that 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."

This final rule does not have

federalism implications. It will 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. The CAA

establishes the scheme whereby States

take the lead in developing plans to

meet the NAAQS. This rule will not

modify the relationship of the States

and EPA for purposes of developing

programs to implement the NAAQS.

Thus, Executive Order 13132 does not

apply to this rule.

Although Executive Order 13132 does

not apply to this rule, EPA discussed

the designation process and compact

program with representatives of State

and local air pollution control agencies,

and Tribal governments, as well as the

Clean Air Act Advisory Committee,

which is also composed of State and

local representatives. In the spirit of

Executive Order 13132, and consistent

with EPA policy to promote

communications between EPA and State

and local governments, EPA specifically

solicited comment on the proposed rule

for deferring the effective date of

nonattainment designations from State

and local officials. The portion of this

rule that assigns designations is not

subject to notice and comment under

section 107(d)(2)(B) of the CAA and,

therefore, no proposed rulemaking was

prepared which specifically solicited

comment on the designations. However,

section 107(d)(1)(A) establishes a

process whereby States first

recommends the designations for areas

in their States. In addition, the Agency

has consulted extensively with

representatives of State, Tribal and local

governments, including elected officials

regarding the designations. The EPA

also notified national organizations of

State and local officials and made EPA

staff available to discuss the action with

the organization staff and their

members.

F. Executive Order 13175: Consultation

and Coordination With Indian Tribal

Governm ents

Executive Order 13175, entitled

"Consultation and Coordination with

Indian Tribal Governments" (65 FR

67249, November 9, 2000), requires EPA

to develop an accountable process to

ensure "meaningful and timely input by

tribal officials in the development of

regulatory policies that have tribal

implications." This final rule does not

have "Tribal implications" as specified

in Executive Order 13175. This rule

concerns the classification and

designation of areas as attainment or

nonattainment of areas for the 8-hour

ozone standard and deferral of the

effective date of the nonattainment

designation for areas participating in the

early action compact process and that

have met all milestones. The CAA

provides for States to develop plans to

regulate emissions of air pollutants

within their jurisdictions. The TAR

gives Tribes the opportunity to develop

and implement CAA programs such as

programs to attain and maintain the 8-

hour ozone NAAQS, but it leaves to the

discretion of the Tribe whether to

develop these programs and which

programs, or appropriate elements of a

program, they will adopt. Early Action

Compact areas that would be affected by

this final rule would be required to

develop and submit local plans for

adoption and implementation of the 8-

hour ozone standard earlier than the

CAA requires. These plans would be

submitted to EPA as SIP revisions in

December 2004. No early action

compact areas include Tribal land.

This final rule does not have Tribal

implications as defined by Executive

Order 13175. It does not have a

substantial direct effect on one or more

Indian Tribes, since no Tribe has

implemented a CAA program to attain

the 8-hour ozone NAAQS at this time or

has participated in a compact.

Furthermore, this rule does not affect

the relationship or distribution of power

and responsibilities between the Federal

government and Indian Tribes. The

CAA and the TAR establish the

relationship of the Federal government

and Tribes in developing plans to attain

the NAAQS, and this rule does nothing

to modify that relationship. Because this

rule does not have Tribal implications,

Executive Order 13175 does not apply.

Although Executive Order 13175 does

not apply to this rule, EPA did outreach

to Tribal representatives regarding the

designations and to inform them about

the compact program and its impact on

designations. The EPA supports a

national "Tribal Designations and

Implementation Work Group" which

provides an open forum for all Tribes to

voice concerns to EPA about the

designation and implementation process

for the NAAQS, including the 8-hour

ozone standard. These discussions

informed EPA about key Tribal concerns

regarding designations as the rule was

under development.

G. Executive Order 13045: Protection of

Children From Environmental Health

and Safety Risks

Executive Order 13045: "Protection of

Children From Environmental Health

and Safety Risks" (62 FR 19885, April

23, 1997) applies to any rule that (1) is

determined to be "economically

significant" as defined under Executive

Order 12866, and (2) concerns an

environmental health or safety risk that

EPA has reason to believe may have

disproportionate effect on children. If

the regulatory action meets both criteria,

the Agency must evaluate the

environmental health or safety effects of

the planned rule on children, and

explain why the planned regulation is

preferable to other potentially effective

and reasonably feasible alternatives

considered by the Agency.

The final rule is not subject to

Executive Order 13045 because it is not

economically significant as defined in

E.O. 12866, and because the Agency

does not have reason to believe the

environmental health risks or safety

risks addressed by this rule present a

disproportionate risk to children.

Nonetheless, we have evaluated the

environmental health or safety effects of

the 8-hour ozone NAAQS on children.

The results of this risk assessment are

contained the National Ambient Air

Quality Standards for Ozone, Final Rule

(62 FR 38855-38896; specifically, 62 FR

38854, 62 FR 38860 and 62 FR 38865).

H. Executive Order 13211:Actions That

Significantly Affect Energy Supply,

Distribution, or Use

This rule is not subject to Executive

Order 13211, "Actions 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.

Information on the methodology and

data regarding the assessment of

potential energy impacts is found in

Chapter 6 of U.S. EPA 2002, Cost,

Emission Reduction, Energy, and

Economic Impact Assessm ent of the

Proposed Rule Establishing the

Implementation Framework for the 8-

I. National Technology Transfer

A dvancem ent Act

Section 12(d) of the National

Technology Transfer Advancement Act

of 1995 (NTTAA), Public Law No. 104-

113, section 12(d) (15 U.S.C. 272 note)

directs EPA to use voluntary consensus

standards (VCS) in its regulatory

activities unless to do so would be

inconsistent with applicable law or

otherwise impractical. Voluntary

consensus standards are technical

standards (e.g., materials specifications,

test methods, sampling procedures, and

business practices) that are developed or

adopted by VCS bodies. The NTTAA

directs EPA to provide Congress,

through OMB, explanations when the

Agency decides not to use available and

applicable VCS.

This action does not involve technical

standards. Therefore, EPA did not

consider the use of any VCS.

J 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. 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. 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). This rule will be effective June

15, 2004.

K. Judicial Review

Section 307(b)(1) of the CAA indicates

which Federal Courts of Appeal have

venue for petitions of review of final

actions by EPA. This Section provides,

in part, that petitions for review must be

filed in the Court of Appeals for the

District of Columbia Circuit (i) when the

agency action consists of "nationally

applicable regulations promulgated, or

final actions taken, by the

Administrator," or (ii) when such action

is locally or regionally applicable, if

"such action is based on a

determination of nationwide scope or

effect and if in taking such action the

Administrator finds and publishes that

such action is based on such a

determination."

This rule designating areas for the 8-

hour ozone standard is "nationally

applicable" within the meaning of

section 307(b)(1). This rule establishes

designations for all areas of the United

States for the 8-hour ozone NAAQS. At

the core of this rulemaking is EPA's

interpretation of the definition of

nonattainment under section 107(d)(1)

of the Clean Air Act. In determining

which areas should be designated

nonattainment (or conversely, should be

designated u nclassifiable/attainment),

EPA used a set of 11 factors that it

applied consistently across the United

States.

For the same reasons, the

Administrator also is determining that

the final designations are of nationwide

scope and effect for purposes of section

307(b)(1). This is particularly

appropriate because in the report on the

1977 Amendments that revised section

307(b)(1) of the CAA, Congress noted

that the Administrator's determination

that an action is of "nationwide scope

or effect" would be appropriate for any

action that has "scope or effect beyond

a single judicial circuit." H.R. Rep. No.

95-294 at 323, 324, reprinted in 1977

U.S.C.C.A.N. 1402-03. Here, the scope

and effect of this rulemaking extend to

numerous judicial circuits since the

designations apply to all areas of the

country. In these circumstances, section

307(b)(1) and its legislative history calls

for the Administrator to find the rule to

be of "nationwide scope or effect" and

for venue to be in the D.C. Circuit.

Thus, any petitions for review of final

designations must be filed in the Court

of Appeals for the District of Columbia

Circuit within 60 days from the date

final action is published in the Federal

Register.

and are illustrated in a map entitled "Eastern San Diego County Attainment Areas for the 8-Hour Ozone NAAQS," dated March 9, 2004, including an attached set of coordinates. The map and attached set of coordinates are available at EPA's Region 9 Air Division office. The designated areas roughly approximate the boundaries of the reservations for these tribes, but their inclusion in this table is intended for CAA planning purposes only and is not intended to be a federal determination of the exact boundaries of the reservations. Also, the specific listing of these tribes

in this table does not confer, deny, or withdraw Federal recognition of any of the tribes so listed nor any of the tribes not listed.

Final Rule To Implement the 8-Hour

Ozone National Ambient Air Quality

Standard-Phase 1

AGENCY: Environmental Protection

Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Final rule.

SUMMARY: In this document, EPA is

taking final action on key elements of

the program to implement the 8-hour

ozone national ambient air quality

standard (NAAQS or standard). This

final rule addresses the following topics:

classifications for the 8-hour NAAQS;

revocation of the 1-hour NAAQS (i.e.,

when the 1-hour NAAQS will no longer

apply); how anti-backsliding principles

will ensure continued progress toward

attainment of the 8-hour ozone NAAQS;

attainment dates; and the timing of

emissions reductions needed for

attainment. We are issuing this rule so

that States and Tribes will know how

we plan to classify areas and transition

from implementation of the 1-hour

NAAQS to implementation of the 8-

hour NAAQS. The intended effect of the

rule is to provide certainty to States and

Tribes regarding classifications for the

8-hour NAAQS and their continued

obligations with respect to existing

requirements. This document is Phase 1

of the program to implement the 8-hour

ozone NAAQS. We plan to issue a

second rule, Phase 2, within the next

several months which will address the

remaining 8-hour implementation

issues, e.g., requirements for reasonable

further progress (RFP), requirements for

modeling and attainment

demonstrations, and requirements for

reasonably available control measures

(RACM) and reasonably available

control technology (RACT).

DATES: Effective Date: This rule is

effective on June 15, 2004.

ADDRESSES: The EPA has established a

docket for this action under Docket ID

No. OAR-2003-0079. All documents in

the docket are listed in the EDOCKET

index at http://www.epa.gov/edocket.

Although listed in the index, some

information is not publicly available,

i.e., Confidential Business Information

or other information whose disclosure is

restricted by statute. Certain other

material, such as copyrighted material,

is not placed on the Internet and will be

publicly available only in hard copy

form. Publicly available docket

materials are available either

electronically in EDOCKET or in hard

copy at the EPA Docket Center (Air

Docket), EPA/DC, EPA West, Room

B102, 1301 Constitution Ave., NW.,

Washington, DC. The Public Reading

Room is open from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30

p.m., Monday through Friday, excluding

legal holidays. The telephone number

for the Public Reading Room is (202)

566-1744, and the telephone number for

the Office of Air and Radiation Docket

and Information Center is (202) 566-

In addition, we have placed a variety

of earlier materials regarding

implementation of the 8-hour ozone

NAAQS on the Web site: http.'//
