SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Throughout this document whenever 

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

EPA. 

I. Background Information 

On June 24, 2024 (89 FR 52413), EPA 

proposed to approve revisions to Title 

326 of the Indiana Administrative Code 

(326 IAC), Article 7–4.1–16 (Sulfur 

Dioxide Emission Limitations, Lake 

County Sulfur Dioxide Limitations, 

Safety-Kleen Oil Recovery Company 

sulfur dioxide emission limitations) as 

contained in Indiana’s September 11, 

2023, submittal and clarified through a 

March 11, 2024, letter to EPA. 326 IAC 

7–4.1–16 was revised to codify 

provisions of an October 20, 2021, 

Agreed Order into the Indiana SIP. 

IDEM also revised 326 IAC 7–4.1–16 to 

reflect equipment changes at the facility 

in its title V operating permit. An 

explanation of the Clean Air Act (CAA) 

requirements, a detailed analysis of the 

revisions, and EPA’s reasons for 

proposing approval were provided in 

the notice of proposed rulemaking and 

will not be restated here. The public 

comment period for this proposed rule 

ended on July 24, 2024. EPA received 

no comments on the proposal. 

Therefore, we are finalizing our action 

as proposed. 

II. Final Action 

EPA is approving into the Indiana SIP 

revisions to 326 IAC 7–4.1–16, effective 

August 11, 2023, as contained in 

Indiana’s September 11, 2023, submittal 

and clarified through a March 11, 2024, 

letter to EPA. 

III. 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 section II of this preamble 

and set forth in the amendments to 40 

CFR part 52 below. EPA has made, and 

will continue to make, these documents 

generally available through https://

www.regulations.gov, and at the EPA 

Region 5 Office (please contact the 

person identified in the FOR FURTHER

INFORMATION CONTACT section of this 

preamble for more information). 

Therefore, these materials have been 

approved by EPA for inclusion in the 

SIP, have been incorporated by 

reference by EPA into that plan, are 

fully federally enforceable under 

sections 110 and 113 of the CAA as of 

the effective date of the final rulemaking 

of EPA’s approval, and will be 

incorporated by reference in the next 

update to the SIP compilation.1

IV. 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, 

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 14094 (88 FR 

21879, April 11, 2023); 

• 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 subject to Executive Order 

13045 (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997) 

because it approves a state program; 

• Is not a significant regulatory action 

subject to Executive Order 13211 (66 FR 

28355, May 22, 2001); and 

• 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. 

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). 

Executive Order 12898 (Federal 

Actions To Address Environmental 

Justice in Minority Populations and 

Low-Income Populations, 59 FR 7629, 

February 16, 1994) directs Federal 

agencies to identify and address 

‘‘disproportionately high and adverse 

human health or environmental effects’’ 

of their actions on communities with 

environmental justice (EJ) concerns to 

the greatest extent practicable and 

permitted by law. EPA defines EJ as 

‘‘the fair treatment and meaningful 

involvement of all people regardless of 

race, color, national origin, or income 

with respect to the development, 

implementation, and enforcement of 

environmental laws, regulations, and 

policies.’’ EPA further defines the term 

fair treatment to mean that ‘‘no group of 

people should bear a disproportionate 

burden of environmental harms and 

risks, including those resulting from the 

negative environmental consequences of 

industrial, governmental, and 

commercial operations or programs and 

policies.’’ 

The Indiana Department of 

Environmental Management did not 

evaluate EJ considerations as part of its 

SIP submittal; the CAA and applicable 

implementing regulations neither 

prohibit nor require such an evaluation. 

EPA did not perform an EJ analysis and 

did not consider EJ in this action. Due 

to the nature of the action being taken 

here, this action is expected to have a 

neutral to positive impact on the air 

quality of the affected area. 

Consideration of EJ is not required as 

part of this action, and there is no 

information in the record inconsistent 

with the stated goal of E.O. 12898 of 

achieving environmental justice for 

communities with EJ concerns. 

This action is subject to the 

Congressional Review Act, and EPA will 

submit a rule report to each House of 

the Congress and to the Comptroller 

General of the United States. This action 

is not a ‘‘major rule’’ as defined by 5 

U.S.C. 804(2).

petitions for judicial review of this 

action must be filed in the United States 

Court of Appeals for the appropriate 

circuit by November 15, 2024. Filing a 

petition for reconsideration by the 

Administrator of this final rule does not

Atlantic Highly Migratory Species; 

Atlantic Bluefin Tuna Fisheries; 

Closure of the General Category 

September Fishery for 2024 

AGENCY: National Marine Fisheries 

Service (NMFS), National Oceanic and 

Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), 

Commerce. 

ACTION: Temporary rule; closure. 

SUMMARY: NMFS closes the General 

category fishery for Atlantic bluefin 

tuna (BFT) for the remainder of the 

September time period. The General 

category may only retain, possess, or 

land large medium and giant (i.e., 

measuring 73 inches (185 centimeters 

(cm) curved fork length (CFL) or greater) 

BFT when open. This action applies to 

Atlantic Tunas General category 

(commercial) permitted vessels and 

Atlantic highly migratory species (HMS) 

Charter/Headboat permitted vessels 

with a commercial sale endorsement 

when fishing commercially for BFT. 

This action also waives the previously 

scheduled restricted-fishing days (RFDs) 

for the remainder of the September time 

period. With the RFDs waived during 

the closure, fishermen aboard General 

category permitted vessels and HMS 

Charter/Headboat permitted vessels may 

tag and release BFT of all sizes, subject 

to the requirements of catch-and-release 

and tag-and-release programs. On 

October 1, 2024, the fishery will reopen 

automatically and previously scheduled 

RFDs for October will resume. 

DATES: Effective 11:30 p.m., local time, 

September 12, 2024, through September 

30, 2024. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ann 

Williamson, ann.williamson@noaa.gov, 

or Larry Redd, Jr., larry.redd@noaa.gov, 

301–427–8503. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Atlantic 

BFT fisheries are managed under the 

2006 Consolidated HMS Fishery 

Management Plan (FMP) and its 

amendments, pursuant to the 

Magnuson-Stevens Fishery 

Conservation and Management Act 

(Magnuson-Stevens Act; 16 U.S.C. 1801 

et seq.) and consistent with the Atlantic 

Tunas Convention Act (ATCA; 16 U.S.C. 

971 et seq.). HMS implementing 

regulations are at 50 CFR part 635. 

Section 635.27(a) divides the U.S. BFT 

quota, established by the International 

Commission for the Conservation of 

Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT) and as 

implemented by the United States 

among the various domestic fishing 

categories, per the allocations 

established in the 2006 Consolidated 

HMS FMP and its amendments. NMFS 

is required under the Magnuson-Stevens 

Act at 16 U.S.C. 1854(g)(1)(D) to provide 

U.S. fishing vessels with a reasonable 

opportunity to harvest quotas under 

relevant international fishery 

agreements such as the ICCAT 

Convention, which is implemented 

domestically pursuant to ATCA. 

Under § 635.28(a)(1), NMFS files a 

closure action with the Office of the 

Federal Register for publication when a 

BFT quota (or subquota) is reached or is 

projected to be reached. Retaining, 

possessing, or landing BFT under that 

quota category is prohibited on or after 

the effective date and time of a closure 

action for that category until the 

opening of the relevant subsequent 

quota period or until such date as 

specified. 

As described in § 635.27(a), the 

current baseline U.S. BFT quota is 

1,316.14 metric tons (mt) (not including 

the 25 mt ICCAT allocated to the United 

States to account for bycatch of BFT in 

pelagic longline fisheries in the 

Northeast Distant Gear Restricted Area 

per § 635.27(a)(3)). The General category 

baseline quota is 710.7 mt. The General 

category baseline quota is suballocated 

to time periods. Relevant to this action, 

the baseline subquota for the September 

time period is 188.3 mt.
