Approval and Promulgation of 

Implementation Plans; Idaho: 

Infrastructure Requirements for the 

2008 Lead National Ambient Air Quality 

Standards 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: The EPA is approving the 

February 14, 2012, State 

Implementation Plan (SIP) submittal 

from Idaho demonstrating that the SIP 

meets the infrastructure requirements of 

the Clean Air Act (CAA) for the National 

Ambient Air Quality Standards 

(NAAQS) promulgated for lead (Pb) on 

October 15, 2008. The CAA requires that 

each state, after a new or revised 

NAAQS is promulgated, review their 

SIP to ensure that it meets the 

infrastructure requirements necessary to 

implement the new or revised NAAQS. 

The EPA finds that the Idaho SIP meets 

the CAA infrastructure requirements for 

the 2008 Pb NAAQS. 

DATES: This final rule is effective on 

June 23, 2014.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Throughout this document wherever 

‘‘we,’’ ‘‘us’’ or ‘‘our’’ is used, it is 

intended to refer to the EPA. 

Information is organized as follows: 

Table of Contents 

I. Background 

II. Final Action 

III. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews 

I. Background 

Section 110 of the CAA specifies the 

general requirements for states to submit 

SIPs to attain and maintain the NAAQS 

and the EPA’s actions regarding 

approval of those SIPs. On February 14, 

2012, Idaho submitted a SIP revision to 

the EPA demonstrating that the SIP 

meets the infrastructure requirements of 

the CAA for the 2008 Pb NAAQS. On 

March 26, 2014, we proposed approval 

of Idaho’s February 14, 2012, submittal 

(79 FR 16722). An explanation of the 

CAA requirements and implementing 

regulations that are met by this SIP 

revision, a detailed explanation of the 

revision, and the EPA’s reasons for the 

proposed action were provided in the 

notice of proposed rulemaking on 

March 26, 2014, and will not be restated 

here (79 FR 16722). The public 

comment period for our proposed action 

ended on April 25, 2014, and we 

received no comments. 

II. Final Action 

The EPA is approving the February 

14, 2012, submittal from Idaho 

demonstrating that the SIP meets the 

requirements of sections 110(a)(1) and 

(2) of the CAA for the 2008 Pb NAAQS. 

Specifically, we find that the Idaho SIP 

meets the following CAA section 

110(a)(2) infrastructure elements for the 

2008 Pb NAAQS: (A), (B), (C), (D), (E), 

(F), (G), (H), (J), (K), (L), and (M). This 

action is being taken under section 110 

of the CAA. 

III. Statutory and Executive Order 

Reviews 

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, the 

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 

this action does not involve technical 

standards; and does not provide the 

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 the EPA notes 

that it will not impose substantial direct 

costs on tribal governments or preempt 

tribal law. 

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. The EPA will 

submit a 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

Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 99 / Thursday, May 22, 2014 / Rules and Regulations 29359 

‘‘major rule’’ as defined by 5 U.S.C.

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 July 21, 2014. 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 may not be 

challenged later in proceedings to 

enforce its requirements. (See section 

307(b)(2)).

Approval and Promulgation of 

Implementation Plans; State of 

Oregon; Approval of Substitution for 

Transportation Control Measures 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Final rule; notice of 

administrative change. 

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA) is making an 

administrative change to update the 

Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) to 

reflect a change made to the Oregon 

State Implementation Plan (SIP) on 

December 11, 2013. The EPA has 

concurred on a substitute transportation 

control measure (TCM) for the Portland 

Area Carbon Monoxide Maintenance 

Plan portion of the Oregon SIP. On 

January 14, 2014, the Oregon 

Department of Environmental Quality 

(ODEQ) submitted a revision to the 

Oregon SIP requesting that the EPA 

update its SIP to reflect a substitution of 

a TCM. The substitution was made 

pursuant to the TCM substitution 

provisions contained in the Clean Air 

Act (CAA). The EPA concurred with 

this substitution on April 16, 2014. In 

this administrative action, the EPA is 

updating the non-regulatory provisions 

of the Oregon SIP to reflect the 

substitution. The substitution that the 

EPA concurred with is an equivalent 

method for assessing the transit service 

increase TCM. 

DATES: This action is effective May 22, 

2014.

II. Statutory and Executive Order Review 

I. This Action 

On April 16, 2014, the EPA concurred 

with a determination by the ODEQ and 

Metro, the metropolitan planning 

organization for the Portland area, that 

the replacement of a transit service 

increase TCM with an equivalent 

substitute transit service increase TCM 

met the requirements of CAA section 

176(c)(8). (See also EPA’s Guidance for 

Implementing the CAA section 176(c)(8) 

Transportation Control Measure 

Substitution and Addition Provision 

contained in the Safe, Accountable, 

Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity 

Act: A Legacy for Users which was 

signed into law on August 10, 2005, 

dated January 2009.) This action 

provides notice of the EPA’s 

concurrence with this substitution, and 

codifies the substitute transportation 

control measure in the Federally 

approved Oregon SIP. The substitution 

replaces the existing transit service 

increase TCM with a TCM containing an 

equivalent method for assessing the 

transit service increase. The substituted 

TCM is: ‘‘Transit Service Increase: 

Regional transit service revenue hours 

(weighted by capacity) shall be 

increased 1.0% per year. The increase 

shall be assessed on the basis of
