SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. What action is EPA taking?

    On July 18, 2011, June 17, 2013, April 10, 2014, August 8, 2014, 
and July 27, 2016, SC DHEC submitted SIP revisions to EPA for approval 
that involve changes to South Carolina's SIP regulations to add 
definitions, make administrative and clarifying amendments, and correct 
typographical errors. These SIP submittals make changes to several air 
quality rules in South Carolina Code of Regulations Annotated (S.C. 
Code Ann. Regs.). The changes EPA is approving into the SIP in this 
action modify portions of Regulation 61-62.1 ``Definitions and General 
Requirements'' at Section I--``Definitions'' and make a revision to 
Regulation 61-62.2,--``Prohibition of Open Burning.''
    At this time, EPA is not acting on the changes detailed in Table 1 
below, which include portions of several SIP submittals that EPA has 
approved previously. EPA will address all remaining requested changes 
to the South Carolina SIP in the relevant SIP submissions as listed 
below in a separate action.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ In its July 18, 2011, submittal, South Carolina is removing 
entirely a rule for setting alternative emission limitations at 
Regulation 61-62.5, Standard No. 6, ``Alternative Emission 
Limitation Options (`Bubble'),'' and replacing it with ``Reserved.'' 
This change is not presently before EPA for action because 
Regulation 61-62.5, Standard No. 6 is not part of the State's 
federally approved SIP. EPA rescinded the original approval of this 
regulation and disapproved a further revision to it on March 8, 1995 
(60 FR 12700).
    \2\ EPA did not approve one portion of 61-62.5, Standard No. 7 
from the April 10, 2014 submittal making revisions to certain 
provisions corresponding to EPA's May 1, 2007 rule regarding ethanol 
production facilities (72 FR 24060). EPA will evaluate this portion 
of the April 10, 2014 submittal in a separate action.

II. Background

    On August 21, 2017, EPA published a proposed rulemaking (82 FR 
39551), which accompanied a direct final rulemaking (82 FR 39537) 
published on the same date. The proposed rule proposed to approve the 
portions of South Carolina's SIP revisions described above. It also 
stated that if EPA received adverse comment on the direct final rule, 
then the Agency would withdraw the direct final rule and address public 
comments received in a subsequent final rule based on the proposed 
rule. EPA received one adverse comment letter from a Commenter 
regarding the portion of the direct final rule revising Regulation 61-
62.1, Section I--``Definitions,'' and the revision to Regulation 61-
62.2,--``Prohibition of Open Burning,'' and EPA accordingly withdrew 
those portions of the direct final rule proposing to approve changes to 
these rules on October 13, 2017 (82 FR 47636). After considering the 
adverse comments, EPA is now taking final action, based on the proposed 
rule, on the portions of South Carolina's SIP revisions modifying 
Regulation 61-62.1, Section I and Regulation 61-62.2, as described 
above.

III. Analysis of South Carolina's Submittals

A. Definitions

    South Carolina is amending its list of applicable definitions 
related to the regulation of air quality at Regulation 61-62.1, Section 
I--``Definitions.'' The July 18, 2011, submittal makes several changes 
to the definitions as follows: (1) Adds a definition for ``CAA [Clean 
Air Act];'' (2) adds definitions for ``PM<INF>2.5</INF>,'' or fine 
particulate matter with an aerodynamic diameter less than or equal to a 
nominal 2.5 micrometers, and ``PM<INF>2.5</INF> emissions;'' (3) 
revises the definition of ``fugitive emissions'' to match the federal 
definition at 40 CFR 51.165(a)(1)(ix), 40 CFR 51.166(b)(20), and 40 CFR 
52.21(b)(20); and (4) makes other clarifying and administrative edits 
to definitions throughout Section I, including renumbering. The June 
17, 2013, submittal further revises the definitions to make several 
administrative edits only.
    The April 10, 2014, submittal makes one revision to the definitions 
at Regulation 61-62.1, Section I.94.--``Volatile Organic Compound 
(VOC),'' to add a compound to the list of compounds determined by EPA 
to have negligible photochemical reactivity and therefore exempted from 
being considered a VOC, consistent with the federal definition. This 
revision in the April 10, 2014, submittal was superseded by another 
revision to the definition of VOC at I.94. in the August 8, 2014, 
submittal. This latter submittal changes the format of the definition 
of VOC at I.99., renumbered from I.94., to incorporate directly the 
list of compounds exempted by EPA from the federal regulatory 
definition of VOC by making an explicit reference to the definition at 
40 CFR 51.100(s). The August 8, 2014, submittal also revises Section I 
by: (1) Adding definitions for ``Code of Federal Regulations (CFR),'' 
``NAICS [North American Industrial Classification System] Code,'' and 
``SIC [Standard Industrial Classification] Code''; and (2) making 
administrative changes throughout.
    Finally, the July 27, 2016, submittal makes subsequent revisions to 
Section I to add the definition of ``emission'' and makes 
administrative edits throughout. EPA has reviewed the changes made to 
South Carolina's definitions and is approving the aforementioned 
changes to Regulation 61-62.1, Section I into the SIP pursuant to CAA 
section 110 because the revisions are consistent with the CAA.

B. Open Burning

    South Carolina is making a minor change to its rules covering open 
burning at Regulation 61-62.2--``Prohibition of Open Burning.'' The 
April 10, 2014, submittal revises the regulation to make an 
administrative edit to a referenced manual only and makes no 
substantive changes. Specifically, the State is changing the font for 
the referenced manual for internal consistency. EPA has reviewed this 
purely administrative change made to South Carolina's rules for open 
burning and is approving the aforementioned change to Regulation 61-
62.2 into the SIP pursuant to CAA section 110.

IV. Response to Comments

    As noted above, EPA previously proposed to approve these changes, 
and others, to the South Carolina SIP on August 21, 2017 (82 FR 39551), 
along with a direct final rule published the same date (82 FR 39537). 
EPA received adverse comments from a Commenter regarding the portions 
of the direct final rule revising Regulation 61-62.1, Section I--
``Definitions,'' and the revision to Regulation 61-62.2,--``Prohibition 
of Open Burning,'' and EPA accordingly withdrew those portions of the 
direct final rule on October 13, 2017 (82 FR 47636). EPA's responses to 
the adverse comments are below.

A. Definitions

    The Commenter stated that South Carolina's definition of 
PM<INF>2.5</INF> ``should also include condensable and filterable PM.'' 
South Carolina's SIP, under Regulation 61-62.1, Section I, defines 
PM<INF>2.5</INF> as ``[p]articulate matter with an aerodynamic diameter 
less than or equal to a nominal 2.5 micrometers emitted to the ambient 
air as measured by a reference method based on Appendix L of 40 CFR 50 
and designated in accordance with 40 CFR 53 or by an equivalent method 
designated in accordance with 40 CFR 53.'' This definition is 
consistent with the way EPA uses the term in federal regulations. For 
example, PM<INF>2.5</INF> is defined in the National Ambient Air 
Quality Standards as ``particles with an aerodynamic diameter less than 
or equal to a nominal 2.5 micrometers.'' (See 40 CFR 50.7, 50.13 and 
50.18.) Therefore, EPA disagrees with the Commenter's implication that 
South Carolina's definition of PM<INF>2.5</INF> is not sufficient.
    Although the Commenter did not mention South Carolina's definition 
of ``PM<INF>2.5</INF> emissions,'' EPA notes that the State has added 
this term to R. 61-62.1 and defines it as ``[f]inely divided solid or 
liquid material with an aerodynamic diameter less than or equal to a 
nominal 2.5 micrometers emitted to the ambient air as measured by a 
reference method approved by the Department, with concurrence of the 
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.'' With regard to ``filterable 
PM'' as mentioned by the Commenter, this component is included in the 
definition as ``[f]inely divided solid . . . material'' emitted to the 
ambient air. With regard to ``condensable PM'' as mentioned by the 
Commenter, South Carolina's definition differs from the federal 
definition of

[[Page 29453]]

``direct PM<INF>2.5</INF> emissions'' \3\ in that it does not specify 
the inclusion of ``condensable PM<INF>2.5</INF> emissions.'' However, 
South Carolina's definition is sufficient for purposes of the State's 
SIP because, as explained below, the condensable component of source 
PM<INF>2.5</INF> emissions will be included whenever a determination of 
a source's PM<INF>2.5</INF> emissions is required.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ Under the federal definition, ``direct PM<INF>2.5</INF> 
emissions'' means solid or liquid particles emitted directly from an 
air emissions source or activity, or reaction products of gases 
emitted directly from an air emissions source or activity which form 
particulate matter as they reach ambient temperatures. Direct 
PM<INF>2.5</INF> emissions include filterable and condensable 
PM<INF>2.5</INF> emissions composed of elemental carbon, directly 
emitted organic carbon, directly emitted sulfate, directly emitted 
nitrate, and other organic or inorganic particles that exist or form 
through reactions as emissions reach ambient temperatures (including 
but not limited to crustal material, metals, and sea salt). 40 CFR 
51.1000.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The inclusion of the condensable component in determining a 
source's PM<INF>2.5</INF> emissions is driven by the applicable source 
test method(s) required under a relevant rule. First, South Carolina's 
federally approved SIP includes emission limits for ``PM'' but does not 
include emission limits for ``PM<INF>2.5</INF>.'' Therefore, 
``particulate matter emissions'' (as defined in the South Carolina 
SIP), not ``PM<INF>2.5</INF> emissions,'' is the term that is relevant 
for the purpose of determining a source's status of compliance with 
applicable PM emission limits of the South Carolina SIP. Second, South 
Carolina's PSD rules (which apply throughout the State) and 
Nonattainment New Source Review rules (which do not currently apply for 
PM<INF>2.5</INF> in the State) both require sources to include the 
condensable portion of PM<INF>2.5</INF> emissions. (See definitions of 
``Regulated NSR pollutant'' at Regulation 61-62.5, Standard No. 
7(b)(44)(i)(a) and Standard No. 7.1(c)(13)(D), respectively.) \4\ 
Third, under federal rules such as the New Source Performance Standards 
(NSPS) and National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants 
(NESHAPs), whether the condensable PM<INF>2.5</INF> component must be 
measured is dictated by the testing methods that are specified to apply 
under those rules. Finally, with regard to emissions inventories, EPA 
has provided guidance to assist states in appropriately accounting for 
the condensable PM<INF>2.5</INF> component in making annual reports of 
PM<INF>2.5</INF> emissions.\5\ Moreover, the federal provisions 
regarding regular emissions inventory reporting at subpart A to part 51 
require states to include the condensable and filterable portions of 
both PM<INF>2.5</INF> and PM<INF>10</INF> as applicable in the 
triennial reports of annual emissions for all sources and the annual 
reports of larger stationary source emissions. See 40 CFR 
51.15(a)(1)(vi)-(vii).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ The specific adoption of condensable PM<INF>2.5</INF> as a 
regulated NSR pollutant was included in a March 14, 2011, SIP 
revision, which was approved on June 23, 2011 (76 FR 36875), and 
corrected for Standard No. 7 on August 10, 2017 (82 FR 37299).
    \5\ See ``Emissions Inventory Guidance for Implementation of 
Ozone and Particulate Matter National Ambient Air Quality Standards 
(NAAQS) and Regional Haze Regulations,'' EPA-454/B-17-003, July 
2017.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    South Carolina's definition of ``PM<INF>2.5</INF>'' is consistent 
with EPA's definition of the term. In addition, as discussed above, 
omitting the phrase ``condensable PM<INF>2.5</INF> emissions'' from 
South Carolina's definition of ``PM<INF>2.5</INF> emissions'' has no 
effect on the State's implementation of its PM<INF>2.5</INF> program 
because the South Carolina SIP currently has no limits on 
``PM<INF>2.5</INF> emissions'' and because the other programs that 
regulate particulate matter specify the required source test methods, 
and those methods require measurement of the condensable component in 
determining a source's PM<INF>2.5</INF> emissions. Accordingly, EPA 
considers South Carolina's definitions of these terms approvable under 
the CAA.

B. Open Burning

    The Commenter suggests that EPA cannot approve changes to South 
Carolina's open burning rules if the rules do not apply ``at all 
times.'' EPA notes that no substantive change was made to the SIP-
approved rule at Regulation 61-62.2, Prohibition of Open Burning. The 
only change made in the April 10, 2014, submittal was a change to the 
font from italics to non-italics for a referenced manual within the 
regulation. As stated in the proposed rule (82 FR 39551, August 21, 
2017), EPA proposed to approve changes to the South Carolina SIP 
submitted by SC DHEC. The existing text of Regulation 61-62.2 is 
already part of South Carolina's federally approved SIP, and only the 
revision to the rule (i.e., the font change) was subject to comment 
through the proposal action. The change that was made is purely 
administrative in nature, and the Commenter has not raised a concern 
relevant to the revision. Nevertheless, EPA finds that Regulation 61-
62.2 adequately prescribes the conditions under which open burning is 
allowed or prohibited. The only provisions of this rule related to 
timing are 62.2.E.6., 62.2.G.4. and 62.2.G.5., which are restrictions, 
not relaxations, on when open burning may be conducted in the State.
    EPA received no additional comments regarding the changes to 
Regulation 61-62.1, Section I nor to the change made to Regulation 61-
62.2. The public comments received are located in the Docket for this 
final action at www.regulations.gov.

V. Incorporation by Reference

    In this rule, EPA is finalizing regulatory text that includes 
incorporation by reference. In accordance with requirements of 1 CFR 
51.5, EPA is finalizing the incorporation by reference of South 
Carolina Regulation 61-62.1, Section I--``Definitions,'' effective June 
24, 2016, which revises definitions applicable to the SIP, and 
Regulation 61-62.2, ``Prohibition of Open Burning,'' effective December 
27, 2013, which revises formatting for consistency. EPA has made, and 
will continue to make, these materials generally available through 
www.regulations.gov and at the EPA Region 4 Office (please contact the 
person identified in the For Further Information Contact section of 
this preamble for more information). Therefore, these materials have 
been approved by EPA for inclusion in the State's implementation plan, 
have been incorporated by reference by EPA into that plan, are fully 
federally-enforceable under sections 110 and 113 of the CAA as of the 
effective date of the final rulemaking of EPA's approval, and will be 
incorporated by reference in the next update to the SIP compilation.\6\

    \6\ 62 FR 27968 (May 22, 1997).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

VI. Final Action

    This is a final action based on the proposed rule (82 FR 39551). 
For the reasons discussed above, EPA is approving the aforementioned 
changes to the South Carolina SIP, submitted on July 18, 2011, June 17, 
2013, April 10, 2014, August 8, 2014, and July 27, 2016, because they 
are consistent with the CAA and federal regulations.

VII. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

    Under the CAA, the Administrator is required to approve a SIP 
submission that complies with the provisions of the Act and applicable 
Federal regulations. See 42 U.S.C. 7410(k); 40 CFR 52.02(a). Thus, in 
reviewing SIP submissions, EPA's role is to approve state choices, 
provided that they meet the criteria of the CAA. This action merely 
approves state law as meeting Federal requirements and does not impose 
additional requirements beyond those imposed by state law. For that 
reason, this action:

    <bullet> Is not a significant regulatory action subject to review 
by the Office of Management and Budget under Executive Orders 12866 (58 
FR 51735, October 4, 1993) and 13563 (76 FR 3821, January 21, 2011);
    <bullet> Is not an Executive Order 13771 (82 FR 9339, February 2, 
2017) regulatory action because SIP approvals are exempted under 
Executive Order 12866.
    <bullet> Does not impose an information collection burden under the 
provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.);
    <bullet> Is certified as not having a significant economic impact 
on a substantial number of small entities under the Regulatory 
Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.);
    <bullet> Does not contain any unfunded mandate or significantly or 
uniquely affect small governments, as described in the Unfunded 
Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-4);
    <bullet> Does not have Federalism implications as specified in 
Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999);
    <bullet> Is not an economically significant regulatory action based 
on health or safety risks subject to Executive Order 13045 (62 FR 
19885, April 23, 1997);
    <bullet> Is not a significant regulatory action subject to 
Executive Order 13211 (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001);
    <bullet> Is not subject to requirements of section 12(d) of the 
National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272 
note) because application of those requirements would be inconsistent 
with the CAA; and
    <bullet> Does not provide EPA with the discretionary authority to 
address, as appropriate, disproportionate human health or environmental 
effects, using practicable and legally permissible methods, under 
Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).
    In addition, this final action for the State of South Carolina does 
not have Tribal implications as specified by Executive Order 13175 (65 
FR 67249, November 9, 2000), because it does not have substantial 
direct effects on an Indian Tribe. The Catawba Indian Nation 
Reservation is located within the boundary of York County, South 
Carolina. Pursuant to the Catawba Indian Claims Settlement Act, S.C. 
Code Ann. 27-16-120, ``all state and local environmental laws and 
regulations apply to the [Catawba Indian Nation] and Reservation and 
are fully enforceable by all relevant state and local agencies and 
authorities.'' EPA notes this action will not impose substantial direct 
costs on Tribal governments or preempt Tribal law.
    The Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801 et seq., as added by the 
Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996, generally 
provides that before a rule may take effect, the agency promulgating 
the rule must submit a rule report, which includes a copy of the rule, 
to each House of the Congress and to the Comptroller General of the 
United States. EPA will submit a report containing this action and 
other required information to the U.S. Senate, the U.S. House of 
Representatives, and the Comptroller General of the United States prior 
to publication of the rule in the Federal Register. A major rule cannot 
take effect until 60 days after it is published in the Federal 
Register. This action is not a ``major rule'' as defined by 5 U.S.C. 
804(2).
    Under section 307(b)(1) of the CAA, petitions for judicial review 
of this action must be filed in the United States Court of Appeals for 
the appropriate circuit by August 24, 2018. Filing a petition for 
reconsideration by the Administrator of this final rule does not affect 
the finality of this action for the purposes of judicial review nor 
does it extend the time within which a petition for judicial review may 
be filed, and shall not postpone the effectiveness of such rule or 
action. This action may not be challenged later in proceedings to 
enforce its requirements. See section 307(b)(2).
