Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 111 / Friday, June 8, 2018 / Notices 26665 

paper is attached to the docket for this 

FR notice. 

As suggested by the 2/27/18 joint 

EPA-State paper written to identify 

improvements to the display, usability, 

and accuracy of ECHO, we are asking 

commenters, if they would like, to 

indicate a preference for one of the three 

FRV date reporting options agencies 

may choose to display on ECHO: 1a. 

FRV Determination Date and Case File 

Resolved Date; 1b. Violation Occurrence 

Start Date and Occurrence End Date; 2. 

FRV Determination Date. Option 1a 

would require the linking of formal 

enforcement actions to the case file, and 

in the absence of formal enforcement 

action, the entry of Resolving Action 

Type and Date. Option 1b would add 

two data elements to the minimum data 

requirements. Option 2 continues the 

status quo in which the FRV 

Determination Date is either reported 

voluntarily by the agency or autogenerated by ICIS-Air to match the date 

on which the agency submitted the FRV 

data to ICIS-Air. 

The EPA-State paper expressed the 

authors’ belief that EPA’s ECHO could 

better display CAA violations if FRV 

dates are consistently reported. Several 

members of the workgroup that created 

the paper expressed the view that EPA 

should select an approach for FRV date 

reporting and request the entry of the 

necessary data, via this ICR renewal 

process. EPA encourages you to share 

the views of your organization on this 

topic. 

EPA currently intends to continue the 

status quo with respect to the minimum 

data requirements associated with 

reporting FRVs. However, EPA is open 

to changing its viewpoint based upon 

the feedback received from stakeholders 

in response to this Federal Register 

notice. 

Respondents: State, Local, Territorial, 

Indian Nations, and Commonwealth 

governments. 

Respondent’s obligation to respond: 

Mandatory, see Section 114(a)(1) of the 

Clean Air Act, 42 U.S.C. Section 

7414(a)(1). 

Estimated number of respondents: 99. 

Frequency of response: Every 60 days. 

Annual estimated burden: 51,413 

hours. 

Annual estimated cost: $2,688,901. 

There are no annualized capital/startup 

or operations & maintenance costs. 

Changes in Estimates: When 

developing the previous ICR, ICIS-Air 

was not yet implemented in a 

production environment and EPA 

estimated burden to the best of its 

ability based on the Agency’s 

knowledge of ICIS-Air. At that time, 

EPA believed that states and locals, as 

a whole, would experience a reduction 

in reporting burden due to the ease of 

reporting to ICIS-Air, a modern and 

more robust information system. For 

this ICR renewal, EPA will use 

experience from the last three years to 

provide burden estimates that 

adequately reflect the actual burden. 

EPA will consider any comment 

received and will conduct consultation 

with delegated agencies that are direct 

users of ICIS-Air, as well as those using 

EDT to report MDRs. Since ICIS-Air is 

a relatively new platform, the estimates 

provided are likely to change.

Response to Clean Air Act Section 

126(b) Petitions From Delaware and 

Maryland 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice of proposed action on 

petitions. 

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA) is proposing to deny four 

petitions submitted by the state of 

Delaware and one petition submitted by 

the state of Maryland under Clean Air 

Act (CAA or Act) section 126(b). The 

petitions were submitted between July 

and November 2016. Each of Delaware’s 

four petitions requested that the EPA 

make a finding that emissions from 

individual sources in Pennsylvania or 

West Virginia are significantly 

contributing to Delaware’s 

nonattainment of the 2008 and 2015 

8-hour ozone national ambient air 

quality standards (NAAQS). Maryland’s 

petition requested that the EPA make a 

finding that emissions from 36 electric 

generating units in Indiana, Kentucky, 

Ohio, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia 

are significantly contributing to ozone 

levels that exceed the 2008 8-hour 

ozone NAAQS in Maryland, and, 

therefore, are interfering with 

nonattainment and maintenance of the 

2008 ozone NAAQS. The EPA proposes 

to deny all five petitions because 

Delaware and Maryland have not met 

their burden to demonstrate that the 

sources emit or would emit in violation 

of the CAA’s ‘‘good neighbor’’ provision 

(i.e., the petitions have not 

demonstrated that the sources will 

significantly contribute to 

nonattainment or interfere with 

maintenance of the 2008 or 2015 ozone 

NAAQS in the petitioning states). The 

EPA is further proposing to deny the 

petitions based on the agency’s 

independent analysis that the identified 

sources do not currently emit and are 

not expected to emit pollution in 

violation of the good neighbor provision 

for either the 2008 or 2015 ozone 

NAAQS. 

DATES: Comments. Comments must be 

received on or before July 23, 2018. 

Public Hearing. The EPA will hold a 

public hearing on the proposed action. 

Details will be announced in a separate 

Federal Register document. 

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, 

identified by Docket ID No. EPA–HQ– 

OAR–2018–0295, at http://

www.regulations.gov. Follow the online 

instructions for submitting comments. 

Once submitted, comments cannot be 

edited or removed from Regulations.gov. 

The EPA may publish any comment 

received to its public docket. Do not 

submit electronically any information 

you consider to be Confidential 

Business Information (CBI) or other 

information whose disclosure is 

restricted by statute. Multimedia 

submissions (audio, video, etc.) must be 

accompanied by a written comment. 

The written comment is considered the 

official comment and should include 

discussion of all points you wish to 

make. The EPA will generally not 

consider comments or comment 

contents located outside of the primary 

submission (e.g., on the Web, Cloud, or 

other file sharing system). For 

additional submission methods, the full 

EPA public comment policy,

submissions, and general guidance on
