Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 140 / Thursday, July 21, 2011 / Proposed Rules 43637 

• 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, these proposed PM2.5

NAAQS attainment determinations do 

not have Tribal implications as 

specified by Executive Order 13175 (65 

FR 67249, November 9, 2000), because 

the SIP is not approved to apply in 

Indian country located in the State, and 

EPA notes that it will not impose 

substantial direct costs on Tribal 

governments or preempt Tribal law.

Approval and Promulgation of Air 

Quality Plans: State of Missouri 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Proposed rule. 

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve 

an April 20, 2011, request from the State 

of Missouri to exempt sources of 

Nitrogen Oxides (NOX) in the Missouri 

portion of the St. Louis (MO-IL) 

metropolitan 8-hour ozone 

nonattainment area from the Clean Air 

Act (CAA) requirements for NOX

Reasonably Available Control 

Technology (RACT) for purposes of 

attaining the 1997 8-hour ozone 

National Ambient Air Quality Standard 

(NAAQS). The Missouri NOX RACT 

waiver request for its portion of the St. 

Louis metropolitan 8-hour ozone 

nonattainment area is based on the most 

recent three years of complete, qualityassured ozone monitoring data, which 

demonstrate that additional reductions 

of NOX emissions in the Area would not 

contribute to attainment of the 1997 

8-hour ozone NAAQS. 

DATES: Comments on this proposed 

action must be received in writing by 

August 22, 2011. 

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, 

identified by Docket ID No. EPA–R07– 

OAR–2011–0451, by mail to Ms.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the 

final rules section of this Federal 

Register, EPA is approving the State’s 

request to exempt sources of NOX in the 

Missouri portion of the St. Louis (MOIL) metropolitan 8-hour ozone 

nonattainment area from the CAA 

requirements for NOX RACT for 

purposes of attaining the 1997 8-hour 

ozone NAAQS. EPA is approving the 

Missouri’s SIP revision as a direct final 

rule without prior proposal because the 

Agency views this as a noncontroversial submittal and anticipates 

no adverse comments. A detailed 

rationale for the approval is set forth in 

the direct final rule. If no adverse 

comments are received in response to 

this action no further activity is 

contemplated. If EPA receives adverse 

comments, the direct final rule will be 

withdrawn and all public comments 

received will be addressed in a 

subsequent final rule based on this 

proposed rule. EPA will not institute a 

second comment period. Any parties 

interested in commenting on this action 

should do so at this time. 

For additional information, see the 

direct final rule, which is located in the 

rules section of this Federal Register.
