I. What is being addressed in this document?

    On November 7, 2013, the Indiana Department of Environmental 
Management (IDEM) submitted a SIP revision request to EPA for minor NSR 
construction permit rules. EPA last approved Indiana's minor 
construction permit rule (326 IAC 2-1) on October 7, 1994 (59 FR 
51108). In this action, EPA is approving amendments to 326 IAC 2-7-
10.5(a), (c) through (j), (l), and (m), and to 326 IAC 2-8-11.1 as 
revisions to Indiana's SIP. These provisions do not apply to permitting 
actions that trigger major prevention of significant deterioration 
(PSD) or nonattainment NSR requirements. 326 IAC 2-7-10.5 and 326 IAC 
2-8-11.1 replace 326 IAC 2-1, which has been repealed in the state 
rules, as the minor NSR construction permit rules in the Indiana SIP. 
EPA proposed approval of these rules on January 5, 2015 (80 FR 201). 
EPA previously approved 326 IAC 2-7-10.5(b) and (k) on January 17, 2014 
(79 FR 3120).

II. What comments did EPA receive?

    The public comment period on the proposed approval of Indiana's SIP 
revision ended on February 4, 2015. EPA did not receive any comments on 
the proposed approval of this SIP revision.

III. Technical Corrections to the State Rule

    On January 26, 2015, IDEM submitted revisions to 326 IAC 2-7-
10.5(f)(2)(C) and 326 IAC 2-8-11.1(d)(4) that contained typographical 
corrections to the original rules. These corrections were published in 
the Indiana Register on December 25, 2013, and were effective January 
11, 2014. The revision to 326 IAC 2-7-10.5(f)(2)(C) corrects 
grammatical errors and the revision to 326 IAC 2-8-11.1(d)(4) corrects 
a citation error. The revisions do not affect the requirements or 
substance of this rule.

IV. What action is EPA taking?

    EPA is approving Indiana's minor source construction permit rule in 
326 IAC 2-7-10.5(a), (c) through (j), (l), and (m), and 326 IAC 2-8-
11.1. EPA has determined that the emission thresholds and permitting 
requirements discussed

[[Page 13494]]

above satisfy the requirements of 40 CFR 51.160 and 51.161. EPA is not 
taking action on 326 IAC 2-7-10.5(b) and (k) because these portions of 
the state's rule have already been approved into Indiana's SIP.

V. Incorporation by Reference

    In this rule, EPA is finalizing regulatory text that includes 
incorporation by reference. In accordance with requirements of 1 CFR 
51.5, EPA is finalizing the incorporation by reference of the Indiana 
Regulations described in the amendments to 40 CFR part 52 set forth 
below. EPA has made, and will continue to make, these documents 
generally available electronically through www.regulations.gov and/or 
in hard copy at the appropriate EPA office (see the ADDRESSES section 
of this preamble for more information).

VI. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

    Under the Clean Air Act (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 Orders 12866 (58 
FR 51735, October 4, 1993) and 13563 (76 FR 3821, January 21, 2011);
     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, the SIP 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 
country, 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).
    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 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).
    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 May 15, 2015. 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)).
