Approval and Promulgation of 

Implementation Plans; Texas; Revision 

to Control of Air Pollution From 

Volatile Organic Compounds; 

Alternative Leak Detection and Repair 

Work Practice 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Proposed rule. 

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA) is proposing to approve a 

Texas State Implementation Plan (SIP) 

revision for control of volatile organic 

compound (VOC) emissions from 

fugitive sources that was submitted to 

EPA on July 2, 2010. The SIP revision 

allows for a voluntary alternative work 

practice to detect fugitive emission leaks 

using optical gas imaging instruments 

under the EPA federal Leak Detection 

and Repair (LDAR) requirements. The 

EPA adopted through rulemaking the 

use of this voluntary alternative work 

practice for federal leak detection and 

repair of fugitive emissions sources. 

EPA has evaluated the SIP revision and 

determined that it is consistent with the 

federal LDAR regulations. EPA is 

approving this action under Section 110 

of the Clean Air Act. 

DATES: Written comments should be 

received on or before March 30, 2015. 

ADDRESSES: Comments may be mailed to 

Mr. Guy Donaldson, Chief, Air Planning 

Section (6PD–L), Environmental 

Protection Agency, 1445 Ross Avenue, 

Suite 1200, Dallas, Texas 75202–2733. 

Comments may also be submitted 

electronically or through hand delivery/ 

courier by following the detailed

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the 

final rules section of this Federal 

Register, EPA is approving the State’s 

SIP submittal 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 relevant adverse comments 

are received in response to this action 

no further activity is contemplated. If 

EPA receives relevant 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withdrawn and all public comments 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.

direct final rule which is located in the

Approval of Other Solid Waste 

Incinerator Units State Plan for 

Designated Facilities and Pollutants: 

Indiana 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency. 

ACTION: Proposed rule. 

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA) is proposing to approve, 

through direct final procedure, Indiana’s 

State Plan to control air pollutants from 

‘‘Other Solid Waste Incineration’’ 

(OSWI) Units. The Indiana Department 

of Environmental Management 

submitted the State Plan on November 

27, 2007, following the required public 

process. The State Plan is consistent 

with Emission Guidelines promulgated 

by EPA on December 16, 2005. This 

approval means that EPA finds that the 

State Plan meets applicable Clean Air 

Act requirements for OSWI units for 

which construction commenced on or 

before December 4, 2004. Once effective, 

this approval also makes the State Plan 

Federally enforceable.

or before March 30, 2015.

Rulemaking (Second FNPRM and 

Seventh FNPRM) in MB Docket Nos. 07–

Summary 

I. Introduction 

1. The Commission has a longstanding goal of promoting ownership 

diversity in broadcast stations to ensure 

that diverse viewpoints and 

perspectives are available to the 

American people in the content they 

receive over the broadcast airwaves. In 

pursuit of this goal, the Commission has 

a long history of promulgating rules and 

regulations designed to foster diversity 

in terms of minority and female 

ownership. A necessary foundation for 

the Commission’s rulemaking efforts is 

the collection of comprehensive, 

reliable data reflecting the race, gender, 

and ethnicity of the owners and other 

interest holders in broadcast stations. 

Such data are essential to study and 

analyze ownership trends effectively, to 

assess the impact of Commission rules, 

and to determine whether rule changes 

would be in the public interest. To be 

useful for these purposes, to the greatest 

extent possible the data must be capable 

of being read, verified, searched, 

aggregated, and cross-referenced 

electronically. 

2. As a part of these efforts, the 

Commission herein proposes 

improvements to the collection of data 

reported on FCC Form 323, Ownership 

Report for Commercial Broadcast 

Stations, and also to FCC Form 323–E, 

Ownership Report for Noncommercial 

Broadcast Stations, through the 

development of a new functionality in 

the Commission’s Registration System 

(CORES) for issuing FCC Registration 

Numbers (FRNs). Specifically, we seek 

comment on a proposal to create a new 

mechanism for obtaining an FRN 

through CORES. Use of this FRN would 

be restricted to the reporting of 

individual attributable interest holders 

in commercial and noncommercial 

broadcast stations on ownership reports. 

This ‘‘Restricted Use’’ FRN (RUFRN) 

would be supported by identifying 

information for attributable individuals 

that does not include full Social 

Security Numbers (SSNs) and that 

would be housed securely on the 

Commission’s servers and not made 

available to the public. This proposal is 

intended to address some of the privacy 

and data security concerns that 

commenters raised with respect to prior 

proposals while still enabling the 

Commission to uniquely identify 

reported individuals, obtain data 

reflecting a more useful, accurate, and 

thorough assessment of minority and 

female broadcast station ownership in 

the United States and reduce certain 

filing burdens. Ultimately, such changes 

to the Commission’s system could assist 

future initiatives promoting diverse 

ownership. 

II. Background 

3. The Commission is engaged in 

ongoing efforts to improve the quality, 

utility, and reliability of its broadcast
