Approval and Promulgation of Air 

Quality Implementation Plans; 

Delaware; Amendments to the Control 

of Volatile Organic Compound 

Emissions From Offset Lithographic 

Printing and Letterpress Printing 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: EPA is approving a State 

Implementation Plan (SIP) revision 

submitted by the State of Delaware. The 

SIP revision amends the control of

emissions from offset lithographic 

printing and letterpress printing. EPA is 

approving this SIP revision to meet the 

requirements of a reasonably available 

control technology (RACT) rule for the 

offset lithographic printing and 

letterpress printing control technique 

guideline (CTG) category in accordance 

with the requirements of the Clean Air 

Act (CAA). 

DATES: Effective Date: This final rule is 

effective on December 27, 2011. 

ADDRESSES: EPA has established a 

docket for this action under Docket ID 

Number EPA–R03–OAR–2011–0603. All 

documents in the docket are listed in

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

On September 23, 2011 (76 FR 59089), 

EPA published a notice of proposed 

rulemaking (NPR) for the State of 

Delaware. The NPR proposed approval 

of a regulation that amends the control 

of VOC emissions from offset 

lithographic printing and letterpress 

printing (7 DE Admin Code 1124, 

Section 47.0). The purpose of this SIP 

revision is to conform to the new CTG 

issued by EPA in September 2006 (EPA– 

453/R–06–002) for the offset 

lithographic printing industry by adding 

control requirements for letterpress 

printing operations. The formal SIP 

revision that reflects the new 

requirements was submitted by the 

Delaware Department of Natural 

Resources and Environmental Control 

(DNREC) on May 25, 2011. 

II. Summary of SIP Revision 

DNREC’s SIP revision to Section 47.0 

expands the control of VOC emissions 

to include letterpress printing presses 

and sets up a new and more stringent 95 

percent reduction standard for those 

control systems installed after April 11, 

2011 (effective date of the SIP revision). 

Amendments to Section 47.0 also 

include specifying a one-year transition 

period for facilities to comply with the 

new requirements and providing 

flexibility for facilities to locate 

unspecified temperature monitoring 

devices for control systems. Other 

specific requirements of Section 47.0 

and the rationale for EPA’s proposed 

action are explained in the NPR and 

will not be restated here. No public 

comments were received on the NPR. 

III. Final Action 

EPA is approving the control of VOC 

emissions from offset lithographic 

printing and letterpress printing (7 DE 

Admin Code 1124, Section 47.0) as a 

revision to the Delaware SIP. This SIP 

revision meets the requirements of a 

RACT rule for the offset lithographic 

printing and letterpress printing CTG 

category. 

IV. Statutory and Executive Order 

Reviews 

A. General Requirements 

Under the CAA, the Administrator is 

required to approve a SIP submission 

that complies with the provisions of the 

CAA 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 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 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, this rule does 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. 

B. Submission to Congress and the 

Comptroller General 

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 


wreier-aviles on DSK7SPTVN1PROD with RULES
Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 227 / Friday, November 25, 2011 / Rules and Regulations 72627 

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). 

C. Petitions for Judicial Review 

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 January 24, 2012. 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, 

pertaining to Delaware’s control of VOC 

emissions from offset lithographic 

printing and letterpress printing, may 

not be challenged later in proceedings to 

enforce its requirements. (See section 

307(b)(2).)
