flexibility analysis of any rule subject to 

notice and comment rulemaking 

requirements, unless the agency certifies 

that the rule will not have a significant 

economic impact on a substantial 

number of small entities. HUD’s 

rulemaking for the Section 232 program, 

which commenced with a May 3, 2012, 

proposed rule and concluded with a 

September 7, 2012, final rule did not 

result in a significant economic impact 

on a substantial number of small 

entities, and the lack of such impact was 

addressed in the two prior published 

rules. Because this rule is issued as a 

final rule amendment, without prior 

public comment, the Regulatory 

Flexibility Act is not applicable. 

Environmental Impact 

A Finding of No Significant Impact 

with respect to the environment was 

made, in accordance with HUD 

regulations at 24 CFR part 50, which 

implement section 102(2)(C) of the 

National Environmental Policy Act of 

1969 (42 U.S.C. 4332(2)(C)) at issuance 

of the May 3, 2012, proposed rule. That 

finding remains applicable to this final 

rule amendment, and is available for 

public inspection as provided in the 

September 7, 2012, final rule. 

Executive Order 13132, Federalism 

Executive Order 13132 (entitled 

‘‘Federalism’’) prohibits an agency from 

publishing any rule that has federalism 

implications if the rule either: (1) 

Imposes substantial direct compliance 

costs on state and local governments 

and is not required by statute, or (2) 

preempts state law, unless the agency 

meets the consultation and funding 

requirements of section 6 of the 

Executive Order. This rule does not 

have federalism implications and does 

not impose substantial direct 

compliance costs on state and local 

governments or preempt state law 

within the meaning of the Executive 

Order. 

Unfunded Mandates Reform Act 

Title II of the Unfunded Mandates 

Reform Act of 1995 (2 U.S.C. 1531– 

1538) (UMRA) establishes requirements 

for federal agencies to assess the effects 

of their regulatory actions on state, 

local, and tribal governments, and on 

the private sector. This rule does not 

impose any federal mandates on any 

state, local, or tribal governments, or on 

the private sector, within the meaning of 

UMRA.

III. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews 

I. Background 

A. What is the purpose of this 

document? 

Through this document, EPA is 

accomplishing the following objectives: 

(1) Update the delegations tables in 

the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 

40 (40 CFR), Parts 60 and 61, to provide 

an accurate listing of the delegated New 

Source Performance Standards (NSPS) 

and National Emission Standards for 

Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP); 

and 

(2) Clarify those authorities that EPA 

retains and are not granted to state or 

local agencies as part of NSPS or 

NESHAP delegation. 

Update of Tables in the CFR 

Today’s action will update the 

delegation tables in 40 CFR Parts 60 and 

61, to allow easier access by the public 

to the status of delegations in various 

state or local jurisdictions. 

The updated delegation tables will 

include the delegations approved in 

response to recent requests, as well as 

those previously granted. The tables are 

shown at the end of this document. 

Recent requests for delegation that 

will be incorporated into the updated 40 

CFR Parts 60 and 61 tables are identified 

below. Each individual submittal 

identifies the specific NSPS and 

NESHAP for which delegation was 

requested. The requests have already 

been approved by letter and simply 

need to be included in the CFR tables.

B. Who is authorized to delegate these 

authorities? 

Sections 111(c)(1) and 112(l) of the 

Clean Air Act, as amended in 1990, 

authorize the Administrator to delegate 

his or her authority for implementing 

and enforcing standards in 40 CFR Parts 

60 and 61. 

C. What does delegation accomplish? 

Delegation grants a state or local 

agency the primary authority to 

implement and enforce federal 

standards. All required notifications and 

reports should be sent to the delegated 

state or local agency, as appropriate, 

with a copy to EPA Region IX. 

Acceptance of delegation constitutes 

agreement by the state or local agency 

to follow 40 CFR Parts 60 and 61, and 

EPA’s test methods and continuous 

monitoring procedures. 

D. What authorities are not delegated by 

EPA? 

In general, EPA does not delegate to 

state or local agencies the authority to 

make decisions that are likely to be 

nationally significant, or alter the 

stringency of the underlying standards. 

For a more detailed description of the 

authorities in 40 CFR Parts 60 and 61 

that are retained by EPA, please see the 

proposed rule published on January 14, 

2002 (67 FR 1676). 

As additional assurance of national 

consistency, state and local agencies 

must send to EPA Region IX 

Enforcement Division’s Air Section 

Chief a copy of any written decisions 

made pursuant to the following 

delegated authorities: 

• Applicability determinations that 

state a source is not subject to a rule or 

requirement; 

• approvals or determination of 

construction, reconstruction, or 

modification; 

• minor or intermediate site-specific 

changes to test methods or monitoring 

requirements; or 

• site-specific changes or waivers of 

performance testing requirements. 

For decisions that require EPA review 

and approval (for example, major 

changes to monitoring requirements), 

EPA intends to make determinations in 

a timely manner. 

In some cases, the standards 

themselves specify that specific 

provisions cannot be delegated. State 

and local agencies should review each 

individual standard for this information. 

E. Does EPA keep some authority? 

EPA retains independent authority to 

enforce the standards and regulations of 

40 CFR Parts 60 and 61. 

II. EPA Action 

Today’s document serves to notify the 

public that EPA is updating the 40 CFR 

Parts 60 and 61 tables for Arizona, 

California, and Nevada to codify recent 

delegations of NSPS and NESHAPS as 

authorized under Sections 111(c)(1) and 

112(1)(l) of the Clean Air Act. 

III. Statutory and Executive Order 

Reviews 

Under the Clean Air Act (CAA), the 

Administrator is required to approve 

delegation requests that comply with 

the provisions of the CAA and 

applicable Federal regulations. 42 

U.S.C. Sections 7411(c) and 7412(l). 

Thus, in reviewing delegation 

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. Section 3501 et seq.); 


pmangrum on DSK3VPTVN1PROD with RULES
Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 83 / Tuesday, April 30, 2013 / Rules and Regulations 25187 

• 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. Section 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 (2 U.S.C. Section 1501 et seq.); 

• 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. Section 272 note) 

because application of those 

requirements would be inconsistent 

with the CAA; and 

• does not provide EPA with the 

discretionary authority to address 

disproportionate human health or 

environmental effects with practical, 

appropriate, 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 

delegations are 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. 

The Congressional Review Act, 5 

U.S.C. Section 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. Section 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 July 1, 2013. 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. Parties with objections to this 

direct final rule are encouraged to file a 

comment in response to the parallel 

notice of proposed rulemaking for this 

action published in the Proposed Rules 

section of today’s Federal Register, 

rather than file an immediate petition 

for judicial review of this direct final 

rule, so that EPA can withdraw this 

direct final rule and address the 

comment in the proposed rulemaking. 

This action may not be challenged later 

in proceedings to enforce its 

requirements (see Section 307(b)(2)).

Segregation of Lands—Renewable 

Energy 

AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management, 

Interior. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: The Bureau of Land 

Management (BLM) is amending its 

regulations to add provisions allowing 

the BLM to temporarily segregate from 

the operation of the public land laws, by 

publication of a Federal Register notice, 

public lands included in a pending 

wind or solar energy generation right-ofway (ROW) application, and public 

lands that the BLM identifies for 

potential future wind or solar energy 

generation right-of-way applications 

under applicable legal requirements. 

The purpose of such segregation is to 

promote the orderly administration of 

the public lands. Lands segregated 

under this rule will not be subject to 

appropriation under the public land 

laws, including location under the 

Mining Law of 1872 (Mining Law), for 

up to two years from the date of 

publication of notice under this rule, 

subject to valid existing rights, but 

would remain open under the Mineral 

Leasing Act of 1920 (MLA) and the 

Materials Act of 1947 (Materials Act). 

DATES: This rule is effective May 30, 

2013. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ray 

Brady at (202) 912–7312 for information 

relating to the BLM’s renewable energy 

program or the substance of this final 

rule or Ian Senio at (202) 912–7440 for 

information relating to the rulemaking 

process generally. Persons who use a 

telecommunication device for the deaf 

(TDD) may call the Federal Information 

Relay Service (FIRS) at 1–800–877–

to contact the above individuals. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

II. Discussion of Public Comments 

III. Discussion of the Final Rule 

IV. Procedural Matters 

I. Background 

On April 26, 2011 (76 FR 23230), the 

BLM published a proposed rule to 

amend the regulations found in 43 CFR 

subpart 2091, Segregation and Opening 

of Lands, and 43 CFR part 2800, Rightsof-Way Under the Federal Land Policy 

and Management Act (43 U.S.C. 1701 et 

seq.) (FLPMA), to allow for the 

temporary segregation of public lands 

from the operation of the public land 

laws, including the Mining Law, within 

the application area of a pending solar 

or wind renewable energy generation 

project, or for public lands identified by 

the BLM under the ROW regulations for 

potential future wind or solar energy 

generation projects. Such segregations 

would be for a period of up to two years, 

subject to valid existing rights, but the 

affected public lands would remain 

open under the MLA and the Materials 

Act. Concurrently with the proposed 

rule, the BLM published an interim 

temporary final rule (ITFR) (76 FR 

23198) that was substantively identical 

to the proposed rule except that the 

ITFR expires two years after its 

publication, or after the completion of 

the notice and comment rulemaking 

process for the proposed rule, 

whichever occurs first. As published, 

the ITFR is effective April 26, 2011 

through April 26, 2013. Today’s action 

will replace the ITFR with this final rule 

on May 30, 2013. 

The purpose of the proposed rule, the 

ITFR, and today’s final rule is to allow 

for the orderly administration of the 

public lands associated with the BLM’s 

consideration of renewable energy 

ROWs. As explained below, the BLM 

seeks to avoid the delays and 

uncertainty that could result from 

encumbrances placed on lands after a 

wind or solar energy generation ROW 

application has been filed or after the 

BLM has identified an area for such 

applications, but before the BLM is able 

to make a decision on any such ROW. 

While such situations are not common, 

they can be disruptive to the processing 

of a wind or solar energy ROW 

application. Today’s action eliminates 

the potential for these conflicts and 

brings a higher level of certainty to the 

BLM’s management of the lands in 

question. The BLM requested public 

comments on the proposed and ITFR 

rulemakings during a 60-day comment 

period. Those comment periods closed 

on June 27, 2011. You can find the 

discussion of comments and the BLM’s 

responses in the Discussion of Public 

Comments section of this rule. 

Segregations under this rule take 

effect immediately upon the BLM’s 

publication of a notice in the Federal 

Register announcing the segregation. 

The rule provides for a segregation 

period (1) of up to two years, (2) until 

the BLM makes a final decision on the 

ROW application, or (3) until the BLM 

publishes a notice terminating the 

segregation, whichever occurs first. 

Under this rule, a BLM State Director 

may extend the segregation period for 

up to an additional two years by issuing 

a Federal Register notice explaining the 

reasons for such extension. The State 

Director may extend a segregation 

period for a ROW application only once, 

for a total segregation of no longer than 

four years. The rule does not authorize 

the BLM to continue the segregation 

after a final decision on a ROW has been 

made. Segregations under this rule do 

not affect valid existing rights in mining 

claims located before any such 

segregation, and this rule does not allow 

the BLM to segregate lands covered by 

ROW applications for purposes other 

than wind or solar energy generation. 

Finally, not all wind or solar ROW 

applications would lead to a segregation 

under this rule, as the BLM may reject 

some applications and others may not 

require segregation because conflicts 

between uses are not anticipated. 

Segregations have been held to be 

‘‘reasonably related’’ to the BLM’s broad 

authority to issue rules related to ‘‘the 

orderly administration of the public 

land laws,’’ see Byron v. United States, 

259 F. 371, 376 (9th Cir. 1919); Hopkins 

v. United States, 414 F. 2d 464, 472 (9th 

Cir. 1969), because they allow the BLM 

to protect an applicant for an interest in 

such lands from ‘‘the assertion by others 

of rights to the lands while the applicant 

is prevented from taking any steps to 

protect’’ its interests because it has to 

wait for the BLM to act on its 

application. Marian Q. Kaiser, 65 I.D. 

485 (Nov. 25, 1958). It is for this 

purpose that existing regulations at 43 

CFR subpart 2091 provide the BLM with 

the discretion to segregate lands that are 

proposed for various types of land 

disposals, such as land sales, land 

exchanges, and transfers of public land 

to local governments and other entities 

under the Recreation and Public 

Purposes Act of 1926. These regulatory 

provisions allowing segregations were 

put in place over the years to prevent 

resource conflicts, including conflicts 

arising from the location of new mining 

claims that could create encumbrances 

on the title of public lands identified for 

transfer out of Federal ownership under 

the applicable authorities during the 

BLM’s consideration of such transfers 

prior to their consummation. 

Segregations under this final rule will 

serve a similar purpose.
