57538 Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 185 / Thursday, September 24, 2015 / Rules and Regulations 

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 

• 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, the SIP is not approved 

to apply on any Indian reservation land 

or in any other area where EPA or an 

Indian tribe has demonstrated that a 

tribe has jurisdiction. In those areas of 

Indian country, the rule does not have 

tribal implications as specified by 

Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, 

November 9, 2000), nor will it 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 November 23, 2015. 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).

Infrastructure Requirements for the

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA) is taking final action to 

approve portions of the October 14, 

2011, State Implementation Plan (SIP) 

submission, provided by the State of 

Florida, through the Department of 

Environmental Protection (FL DEP) for 

inclusion into the Florida SIP. This final 

submission pertains to the Clean Air Act 

(CAA or the Act) infrastructure 

requirements for the 2008 Lead national 

ambient air quality standards (NAAQS). 

The CAA requires that each state adopt 

and submit a SIP for the 

implementation, maintenance, and 

enforcement of each NAAQS 

promulgated by EPA, which is 

commonly referred to as an 

‘‘infrastructure’’ SIP. FL DEP certified 

that the Florida SIP contains provisions 

that ensure the 2008 Lead NAAQS is 

implemented, enforced, and maintained 

in Florida. With the exception of 

provisions pertaining to prevention of 

significant deterioration (PSD) 

permitting which EPA has already 

approved, EPA is taking final action to 

approve Florida’s infrastructure 

submission, provided to EPA on 

October 14, 2011, as satisfying the 

required infrastructure elements for the 

2008 Lead NAAQS. 

DATES: This rule will be effective 

October 26, 2015

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

Upon promulgation of a new or 

revised NAAQS, sections 110(a)(1) and 

(2) of the CAA require states to address 

basic SIP requirements, including 

emissions inventories, monitoring, and 

modeling to assure attainment and 

maintenance for that new NAAQS. 

Section 110(a) of the CAA generally 

requires states to make a SIP submission 

to meet applicable requirements in 

order to provide for the implementation, 

maintenance, and enforcement of a new 

or revised NAAQS within three years 

following the promulgation of such 

NAAQS, or within such shorter period 

as EPA may prescribe. For additional 

information on the infrastructure SIP 

requirements, see the proposed 

rulemaking published on May 22, 2015 

(80 FR 29592). 

On May 22, 2015, EPA proposed to 

approve portions of Florida’s October 

14, 2011, 2008 Lead NAAQS 

infrastructure SIP submission with the 

exception of provisions pertaining to 

PSD permitting in sections 110(a)(2)(C), 

prong 3 of D(i) and (J). EPA did not 

receive any comments, adverse or 

otherwise, on the May 22, 2015, 

proposed rule. EPA took final action to 

approve the PSD permitting 

requirements in sections 110(a)(2)(C), 

prong 3 of D(i) and (J) on March 18, 

2015 (80 FR 14019). EPA is taking final 

action to approve the remaining 

portions of Florida’s infrastructure 

submission as demonstrating that the 

State meets the applicable requirements 

of sections 110(a)(1) and (2) of the CAA 

for the 2008 Lead NAAQS. 

II. Final Action 

With the exception of provisions 

pertaining to PSD permitting 

requirements, EPA is taking final action 

to approve Florida’s October 14, 2011, 

infrastructure submission because it 

addresses the required infrastructure 

elements for the 2008 Lead NAAQS. FL 

DEP has addressed the elements of the 

CAA 110(a)(1) and (2) SIP requirements 

pursuant to section 110 of the CAA to 

ensure that the 2008 Lead NAAQS is 

implemented, enforced, and maintained 

in Florida. 

III. 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. 

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. Accordingly, 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: 

• 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); 

• does not impose an information 

collection burden under the provisions 

of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 

U.S.C. 3501 et seq.); 

• 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.); 

• 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); 

• does not have Federalism 

implications as specified in Executive 

Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 

1999); 

• is not an economically significant 

regulatory action based on health or 

safety risks subject to Executive Order 

13045 (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997); 

• is not a significant regulatory action 

subject to Executive Order 13211 (66 FR 

28355, May 22, 2001); 

• 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 Clean Air Act; 

and 

• 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, the SIP is not approved 

to apply on any Indian reservation land 

or in any other area where EPA or an 

Indian tribe has demonstrated that a 

tribe has jurisdiction. In those areas of 

Indian country, the rule does not have 

tribal implications and will not impose 

substantial direct costs on tribal 

governments or preempt tribal law as 

specified by Executive Order 13175 (65 

FR 67249, November 9, 2000). 

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 November 23, 2015. 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).

commonly referred to as an 

‘‘infrastructure’’ SIP. SC DHEC certified 

that the South Carolina SIP contains 

provisions to ensure the 2008 Lead 

NAAQS is implemented, enforced, and 

maintained in South Carolina. With the 

exception of provisions pertaining to 

prevention of significant deterioration 

(PSD) permitting which EPA has already 

approved, EPA is taking final action to 

approve South Carolina’s infrastructure 

SIP submission, provided to EPA on 

September 20, 2011. 

DATES: This rule will be effective

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

Upon promulgation of a new or 

revised NAAQS, sections 110(a)(1) and 

(2) of the CAA require states to address 

basic SIP requirements, including 

emissions inventories, monitoring, and 

modeling to assure attainment and 

maintenance for that new NAAQS. 

Section 110(a) of the CAA generally 

requires states to make a SIP submission 

to meet applicable requirements in 

order to provide for the implementation, 

maintenance, and enforcement of a new 

or revised NAAQS within three years 

following the promulgation of such 

NAAQS, or within such shorter period 

as EPA may prescribe. For additional 

information on the infrastructure SIP 

requirements, see the proposed 

rulemaking published on June 8, 2015. 

(80 FR 32324) 

On June 8, 2015, EPA proposed to 

approve portions of South Carolina’s 

September 20, 2011, 2008 Lead NAAQS 

infrastructure SIP submission with the 

exception of provisions pertaining to 

PSD permitting in sections 110(a)(2)(C), 

prong 3 of D(i) and (J). See 80 FR 32324. 

EPA did not receive any comments, 

adverse or otherwise, on the June 8, 

2015, proposed rule. EPA took final 

action to approve the PSD permitting 

requirements in sections 110(a)(2)(C), 

prong 3 of D(i) and (J) on March 18, 

2015. See 80 FR 14019. 

II. This Action 

In this rulemaking, EPA is taking final
