51172 Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 163 / Monday, August 24, 2015 / Proposed Rules 

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 Order 12866 (58 FR 51735, 

October 4, 1993); 

• 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). 

The 111(d)/129 plan 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 Nation Land, 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).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Along 

with this proposed rule, EPA is 

publishing a direct final rule in the 

‘‘Rules and Regulations’’ section of 

today’s Federal Register pursuant to 

which EPA is authorizing these changes. 

EPA did not issue a proposed rule 

before today because EPA believes this 

action is not controversial and does not 

expect comments that oppose it. EPA 

has explained the reasons for this 

authorization in the direct final rule. 

Unless EPA receives written comments 

that oppose this authorization during 

the comment period, the direct final 

rule in today’s Federal Register will 

become effective on the date it 

establishes, and EPA will not take 

further action on this proposal. If EPA 

receives comments that oppose this 

action, EPA will withdraw the direct 

final rule and it will not take effect. EPA 

will then respond to public comments 

in a later final rule based on this 

proposed rule. You may not have 

another opportunity to comment on 

these State program changes. If you 

want to comment on this action, you 

must do so at this time. For additional 

information, please see the direct final 

rule published in the ‘‘Rules and 

Regulations’’ section of today’s Federal 

Register. 

Dated: June 26, 2015.
