ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Part 52

[EPA-R08-OAR-2016-0221; FRL-9948-88-Region 8]

Approval and Promulgation of State Implementation Plan Revisions 
to Permits, Rules and Approval Orders; Utah

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency.

ACTION: Proposed rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to 
approve State Implementation Plan (SIP) revisions submitted by the 
State of Utah on February 10, 2012 and August 29, 2014. These 
submittals request SIP revisions to remove changes to the major source 
baseline date that were disapproved by the EPA on July 15, 2011. The 
submittals also address the EPA's February 6, 2014 disapproval of 
several permit rules related to the public availability of good 
engineering practice stack height demonstrations in the public comment 
process for an approval order, and the process for making emission 
reductions enforceable in an approval order. The EPA is taking this 
action in accordance with section 110 of the Clean Air Act (CAA).

DATES: Written comments must be received on or before August 18, 2016.

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, identified by Docket ID No. EPA-R08-
OAR-2016-0221, at http://www.regulations.gov. Follow the online 
instructions for submitting comments. Once submitted, comments cannot 
be edited or removed from Regulations.gov. The EPA may publish any 
comment received to its public docket. Do not submit electronically any 
information you consider to be Confidential Business Information (CBI) 
or other information whose disclosure is restricted by statute. 
Multimedia submissions (audio, video, etc.,) must be accompanied by a 
written comment. The written comment is considered the official comment 
and should include discussion of all points you wish to make. The EPA 
will generally not consider comments or comment contents located 
outside of the primary submission (i.e., on the web, cloud, or other 
file sharing system). For additional submission methods, the full EPA 
public comment policy, information about CBI or multimedia submissions, 
and general guidance on making effective comments, please visit http://www2.epa.gov/dockets/commenting-epa-dockets.

Incorporation by Reference

    In this rule, the EPA is finalizing regulatory text that includes 
incorporation by reference. In accordance with requirements of 1 CFR 
51.5, the EPA is proposing to incorporate by reference the Utah rules

[[Page 46866]]

described in the amendments to 40 CFR part 52 set forth below. The EPA 
has made, and will continue to make, these materials generally 
available through www.regulations.gov and/or at the EPA Region 8 Office 
(please contact the person identified in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION 
CONTACT section of this preamble for more information).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    In the ``Rules and Regulations'' section of this Federal Register, 
the EPA is approving the State's SIP revision as a direct final rule 
without prior proposal because the agency views this as a 
noncontroversial SIP revision and anticipates no adverse comments. A 
detailed rationale for the approval is set forth in the preamble to the 
direct final rule.
    If the EPA receives no adverse comments, the EPA will not take 
further action on this proposed rule. If the EPA receives adverse 
comments, the EPA will withdraw the direct final rule and it will not 
take effect. The EPA will address all public comments in a subsequent 
final rule based on this proposed rule.
    The EPA will not institute a second comment period on this action. 
Any parties interested in commenting must do so at this time. For 
further information, please see the ADDRESSES section of this notice.
    Please note that if the EPA receives adverse comment on a distinct 
provision of this rule and if that provision may be severed from the 
remainder of the rule, the EPA may adopt as final those provisions of 
the rule that are not the subject of an adverse comment. See the 
information provided in the Direct Final action of the same title which 
is located in the Rules and Regulations Section of this Federal 
Register.

    Authority: 42 U.S.C. 7401 et seq.

    Dated: June 22, 2016.

Regional Administrator, Region 8.
