Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 10 / Friday, January 15, 2016 / Proposed Rules 2159 

impose substantial direct costs on tribal 

governments or preempt tribal law as 

specified by Executive Order 13175 (65 

FR 67249, November 9, 2000). 

Therefore, the EPA has concluded that 

the proposed action will not have tribal 

implications for the purposes of 

Executive Order 13175, and would not 

impose substantial direct costs upon the 

tribes, nor would it preempt Tribal law. 

We note that none of the tribes located 

in the San Joaquin Valley has requested 

eligibility to administer programs under 

the CAA.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the 

final rules section of this Federal 

Register, EPA is approving the state’s 

Title V revision to 10 C.S.R. 10–6.110 

‘‘Reporting Emission Data, Emission 

Fees, and Process Information’’ as a 

direct final rule without prior proposal 

because the Agency views this as a 

noncontroversial revision amendment 

and anticipates no relevant adverse 

comments to this action. A detailed 

rationale for the approval is set forth in 

the direct final rule. If no relevant 

adverse comments are received in 

response to this action, no further 

activity is contemplated in relation to 

this action. If EPA receives relevant 

adverse comments, the direct final rule 

will be withdrawn and all public 

comments received will be addressed in 

a subsequent final rule based on this 

proposed action. EPA will not institute 

a second comment period on this action. 

Any parties interested in commenting 

on this action should do so at this time. 

Please note that if EPA receives adverse 

comment on part of this rule and if that 

part can be severed from the remainder 

of the rule, EPA may adopt as final 

those parts of the rule that are not the 

subject of an adverse comment. For 

additional information, see the direct 

final rule which is located in the rules 

section of this Federal Register.
