SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The CAA 

affords the EPA a 45-day period to 

review and object to, as appropriate, 

operating permits proposed by state 

permitting authorities under title V of 

the CAA. Section 505(b)(2) of the CAA 

authorizes any person to petition the 

EPA Administrator to object to a title V 

operating permit within 60 days after 

the expiration of the EPA’s 45-day 

review period if the EPA has not 

objected on its own initiative. Petitions 

must be based only on objections to the 

permit that were raised with reasonable 

specificity during the public comment 

period provided by the state, unless the 

petitioner demonstrates that it was 

impracticable to raise these issues 

during the comment period or unless 

the grounds for the issues arose after 

this period. 

EPA received a first petition from the 

Petitioners on December 29, 2016 and a 

second petition from the same 

Petitioners on August 10, 2017 for the 

operating permit issued on June 30, 

2017 to SLM for its Methanol Facility 

located in St. James Parish, Louisiana. 

The Petitioners requested that the 

Administrator object to the proposed 

operating permit issued by the LDEQ to 

SLM based on eight primary claims in 

the Petition. The claims are described in 

detail in Section IV of the Order. In 

summary, the issues raised include: 

Matters properly addressable through 

preconstruction permit requirements, 

such as the establishment of proper 

preconstruction emission limits and 

standards (various claims, introduction 

to Order Section IV); claims concerning 

the failure to require Best Available 

Control Technology (Claim IV); claims 

of permit condition unenforceability 

(Claim V); claims of unenforceability of 

emissions limits that apply to the boiler 

(Claim V.A), the Reformer Vent (Claim 

V.B), the flare (Claim V.D), the crude 

methanol tank (Claim V.E), the cooling 

towers (Claim V. G), from miscellaneous 

fired sources (Claim V.F), including 

CO2e emissions from such fired sources 

(Claim V.C). On May 29, 2018, the EPA 

Administrator issued an Order denying 

the Petitions. The Order explains the 

basis for EPA’s decision. 

Sections 307(b) and 505(b)(2) of the 

CAA provide that a petitioner may 

request judicial review of those portions 

of an order that deny issues in a 

petition. Any petition for review shall 

be filed in the United States Court of 

Appeals for the appropriate circuit no 

later than August 27, 2018. 

Dated: June 15, 2018.

Regional Administrator, Region 6.

Brownfields Utilization, Investment and 

Local Development (BUILD) Act 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: The Brownfields Utilization, 

Investment, and Local Development 

(BUILD) Act was enacted on March 23, 

2018 as part of the Consolidated 

Appropriations Act, 2018. The BUILD 

Act reauthorized the Environmental 

Protection Agency’s (EPA’s) 

Brownfields Program, and made 

amendments to the Comprehensive 

Environmental Response, 

Compensation, and Liability Act 

(CERCLA), as amended by the 2002 

Small Business Liability Relief and 

Brownfields Revitalization Act. These 

amendments affect brownfields grants, 

ownership and liability provisions, and 

State & Tribal Response Programs. The 

Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) 

is developing policy and guidance to 

implement the BUILD Act amendments. 

As part of this process, the EPA is 

soliciting comment on three provisions 

in the BUILD Act: The authority to 

increase the per-site cleanup grant 

amounts to $500,000, the new multipurpose grant authority, and the new 

small community assistance grant 

authority.
