principles and preemption requirements 

described in Executive Order 13132. 

Also, this rule does not have tribal 

implications under Executive Order 

13175, Consultation and Coordination 

with Indian Tribal Governments, 

because it does not have a substantial 

direct effect on one or more Indian 

tribes, on the relationship between the 

Federal Government and Indian tribes, 

or on the distribution of power and 

responsibilities between the Federal 

Government and Indian tribes. 

E. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act 

The Unfunded Mandates Reform Act 

of 1995 (2 U.S.C. 1531–1538) requires 

Federal agencies to assess the effects of 

their discretionary regulatory actions. In 

particular, the Act addresses actions 

that may result in the expenditure by a 

State, local, or tribal government, in the 

aggregate, or by the private sector of 

$100,000,000 (adjusted for inflation) or 

more in any one year. Though this rule 

will not result in such an expenditure, 

we do discuss the effects of this rule 

elsewhere in this preamble. 

F. Environment 

We have analyzed this rule under 

Department of Homeland Security 

Directive 023–01, Rev. 1, associated 

implementing instructions, and 

Environmental Planning COMDTINST 

5090.1 (series), which guide the Coast 

Guard in complying with the National 

Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (42 

U.S.C. 4321–4370f), and have 

determined that this action is one of a 

category of actions that do not 

individually or cumulatively have a 

significant effect on the human 

environment. This rule involves 

establishment of a security zone lasting 

only 13 hours on the navigable waters 

of San Diego Bay. It is categorically 

excluded from further review under 

paragraph L60(a) of Appendix A, Table 

1 of DHS Instruction Manual 023–01– 

001–01, Rev. 1. A Record of 

Environmental Consideration 

supporting this determination is 

available in the docket. For instructions 

on locating the docket, see the 

ADDRESSES section of this preamble. 

G. Protest Activities 

The Coast Guard respects the First 

Amendment rights of protesters. 

Protesters are asked to call or email the 

person listed in the FOR FURTHER

INFORMATION CONTACT section to 

coordinate protest activities so that your 

message can be received without 

jeopardizing the safety or security of 

people, places, or vessels.

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA) is approving a state 

implementation plan (SIP) revision 

submitted by the Delaware Department 

of Natural Resources and Environmental 

Control (DNREC). This SIP revision 

consists of the 2010 amendments to the 

State of Delaware’s Mobile Equipment 

Repair and Refinishing (MERR) 

regulations to incorporate the Ozone 

Transport Commission’s (OTC) 2009 

Motor Vehicle and Mobile Equipment 

Non-Assembly Line Coating Operations 

regulations (MVMERR) model rule. The 

MVMERR rule establishes updated 

volatile organic compounds (VOC) 

content limits for coating and cleaning 

solvents used in vehicle refinishing and 

standards for coating application, work 

practices, monitoring, and 

recordkeeping. EPA is approving these 

revisions to the Delaware SIP in 

accordance with the requirements of the 

Clean Air Act (CAA).

2 During a recent internal review of the Delaware 

SIP, DNREC discovered that it had never submitted 

the 2010 Delaware regulatory changes adopting the 

2009 OTC MVMERR Model Rule to EPA as a SIP 

revision. DNREC therefore submitted this SIP 

revision in May 2020 so that the EPA-approved SIP 

would correctly reflect the Delaware regulations.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

On February 8, 2021 (86 FR 8561), 

EPA published a notice of proposed 

rulemaking (NPRM) for the State of 

Delaware. In the NPRM, EPA proposed 

approval of a formal SIP Revision 

submitted on May 6, 2020 on behalf of 

the State of Delaware by DNREC. 

Ozone is formed in the atmosphere by 

photochemical reactions between VOCs 

and nitrogen oxides (NOX) in the 

presence of sunlight. In order to reduce 

these ozone concentrations, the CAA 

requires control of certain VOC and 

NOX emission sources to achieve 

emission reductions in ozone 

nonattainment areas classified as 

Moderate and above. The 2002 MERR 

Model Rule was developed to reduce 

VOC emissions from automotive 

coatings and cleaning solvents 

associated with non-assembly line 

refinishing or recoating of motor 

vehicles, mobile equipment, and their 

associated parts and components. This 

rule was originally approved by EPA 

into Delaware’s SIP on November 22, 

2002 (67 FR 70315) as part of a regional 

effort to attain and maintain the 1-hour 

ozone national ambient air quality 

standards (NAAQS). 

The OTC 2009 MVMERR Model 

Rule 1 is a revision of the 2002 MERR 

Model Rule developed by the OTC. The 

OTC’s 2009 MVMERR Model Rule is 

based upon the California Air Resources 

Board’s (CARB) Suggested Control 

Measure (SCM) for Automotive 

Coatings, published October 2005. In 

order to keep Delaware’s regulations up 

to date with the OTC’s 2009 MVMERR 

Model Rule, Delaware revised its 

regulations, found at 7 Del. Admin. 

Code 1124, Control of Volatile Organic 

Compound Emissions; Section 11.0 

Mobile Equipment Repair and 

Refinishing (Delaware’s 2010 amended 

MERR rule), on September 17, 2010. 

Delaware then submitted these 2010 

amendments to EPA as a SIP revision on 

May 6, 2020.2

II. Summary of SIP Revision and EPA 

Analysis 

EPA has reviewed Delaware’s May 6, 

2020 MERR SIP submittal in the context 

of the requirements of CAA Sections 

176a and 184 (interstate transport 

commissions and control of interstate 

ozone air pollution respectively). 

Delaware has amended 7 Del. Admin. 

Code 1124 Control of Volatile Organic 

Compound Emissions Section 11.0 

Mobile Equipment Repair and 

Refinishing to meet these requirements 

in its May 6, 2020 MERR SIP submittal. 

In this action, EPA is determining that 

the submitted MERR SIP meets the 

above-cited requirements of the CAA. 

Other specific requirements of 

Delaware’s May 6, 2020 submittal and 

the rationale for EPA’s proposed action 

are explained in the NPRM, and will not 

be restated here. 

III. EPA’s Response to Comments 

Received 

EPA received five sets of comments in 

response to the NPRM that are available 

in the docket for this action. Of these 

five sets of comments, one was outside 

of the scope of this rulemaking, and 

another was supportive, neither of 

which require a response by EPA. EPA 

provides summaries of the three sets of 

significant adverse comments and our 

responses below. 

Comment 1: One commenter claims 

that the DE MERR Rule should be 

disapproved due to rounding error that 

results from converting the regulatory 

VOC limits from pounds per gallon (lb/ 

gal) to grams per liter (gm/l) and vice 

versa. The commenter uses the example 

that converting ‘‘5.5 pounds per gallon 

to grams per liter we get 659.045 grams 

per liter’’ and converting ‘‘660 grams per 

liter to pounds per gallon we get 

5.50797 pounds per gallon.’’ The 

commenter goes on to say ‘‘allowing 

these fractional amounts to be rounded 

off EPA is deceiving the public and 

allowing harmful VOC compounds to be 

emitted into the atmosphere. EPA can’t 

allow duel [sic] limits in different units 

unless those units of measure are 

exactly equal.’’ 

Response 1: EPA does not agree that 

the SIP revision should be disapproved 

due to minor discrepancies that arise in 

table 11–1 which converts imperial 

units to metric units. The SIP revision 

explicitly defines the VOC Coating 

Regulatory content in equation 11–1 and 

states that units are in gm/l. 

Furthermore, certain EPA regulations 

also give limits in both imperial and 

metric units. Examples can be found in 

EPA’s New Source Performance 

Standards (Standards of Performance for 

Electric Utility Steam Generating Units, 

40 CFR part 60 subpart Da) and National 

Emissions Standards for Hazardous Air 

Pollutants (Surface Coating of Metal 

Furniture: National Emission Standards 

for Hazardous Air Pollutants, 40 CFR 

part 63 subpart RRRR). In these 

examples and in this SIP revision, these 

limits would be better conceived of as 

a limit defined by a range of possible 

compliant concentrations with any 

concentrations within the range 

(whether measured in imperial or SI 

units) representing compliance, rather 

than ‘‘duel [sic] limits.’’ However, in all 

cases the limits in Delaware’s MERR are 

more stringent than the corresponding 

limits in the current SIP. This SIP 

revision is therefore approvable because 

it increases the stringency of the 

Delaware SIP. 

Comment 2: The commenter asserts 

that EPA cannot approve the DE MERR 

rule on grounds that it ‘‘has yet to 

approve previous fixes to the same rule 

which address impermissible Startup 

Shutdowns and Malfunctions as 

detailed in EPA’s 2015 SIP call.’’ The 

commenter asserts that ‘‘EPA must 

address the impermissible exceptions 

detailed in the SIP call for Rule 1124 

before it adds new rules to the SIP 

otherwise these new rules can just be 

ignored in the same way. . . .’’ 

Response 2: The commenter asserts 

that EPA must resolve issues relating to 

Startup, Shutdown, and Malfunction 

(SSM) as described in the 2015 SIP call 

(80 FR 33840, June 12, 2015) before it 

can modify regulations pertaining to 

Delaware’s MERR. The commenter 

correctly notes that an SSM provision 

subject to the 2015 SIP call is contained 

in Title 7 of the Delaware 

Administrative Code, Regulation 1124 

(Control of Volatile Organic Compound 

Emissions), Section 1.0 (General 

Provisions), subsection 1.4. 7 Del. 

Admin. Code Section 1124–1.4. This 

SSM subsection is not addressed in this 

rule. This rule pertains solely to 

revisions to Delaware Code section 11.0 

(and its various subsections), and 

comprises SIP-strengthening changes to 

Delaware’s rules that pertain to ‘‘Mobile 

Equipment Repair and Refinishing.’’ 

Revisions to address the SSM provision 

in 7 Del. Admin. Code Section 1124–1.4 

have been submitted to EPA and will be 

addressed in a separate action. 

It is worth noting the commenter does 

not articulate any reason why EPA must 

address the SSM provision before EPA 

can act on this SIP revision beyond 

drawing an analogy to hypothetical 

traffic regulations, and EPA does not 

know of any policy or legal reason why 


jspears on DSK121TN23PROD with RULES1
Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 62 / Thursday, March 31, 2022 / Rules and Regulations 18701 

3 62 FR 27968 (May 22, 1997). 

we need to await resolution of an SSM 

provision contained in a different 

subsection of the same regulatory 

chapter prior to taking action on these 

SIP-strengthening measures. 

The updates to the MERR rule in 7 

Del. Admin. Code Section 1124–11 

contain no SSM provisions or changes 

relating to SSM. Nothing in 7 Del. 

Admin. Code Section 1124–11 was 

subject to the 2015 SIP call cited by the 

commenter. Furthermore, the approval 

of the MERR provisions in 7 Del. 

Admin. Code Section 1124–11 will be 

SIP strengthening independent of the 

outcome of action pertaining to 7 Del. 

Admin. Code Section 1124–1.4. The 

new SIP strengthening requirements 

Delaware added to section 11 include 

reduced VOC coating contents, 

specifications for the type of equipment 

that can be used for application 

techniques and the addition of 

requirements to document the 

manufacturer and VOC content of 

coatings. EPA believes that delaying the 

federal enforceability of these benefits 

through SIP approval of the MERR rule 

revisions will delay potential 

environmental benefits of having the 

strengthened provisions in the SIP. EPA 

therefore does not view this comment as 

a basis to alter the proposed action and 

is finalizing approval of the MERR as a 

revision to the Delaware SIP. 

Comment 3: The commenter asserts 

EPA cannot approve this SIP because 

this regulation will increase the cost for 

businesses in Delaware resulting from 

‘‘increased chemical use by some 

companies that are not located in 

Delaware, thereby driving up costs for 

Delaware businesses, which must bear 

the cost of treating the chemicals . . .’’ 

The commenter goes on to suggest that 

the resulting cost outweighs the 

benefits. 

Response 3: EPA disagrees that the 

MERR SIP Revision should be 

disapproved based on the reasons given 

by the commenter. Although the 

commenter speculates that the SIP 

revision will result in ‘‘increased 

chemical use by some companies that 

are not located in Delaware, thereby 

driving up costs for Delaware 

businesses, which must bear the cost of 

treating the chemicals’’ the commenter 

does not offer any factual support for or 

data to back up this assertion. 

Comments that are no more than broad 

assertions that an agency ‘‘got it wrong’’ 

do not provide a basis for EPA to change 

its decision. See, e.g., International 

Fabricare Institute v. E.P.A., 972 F.2d 

384 (D.C. Cir. 1992). Furthermore, this 

SIP revision in no way impacts 

treatment of materials, so the 

mechanism suggested by the commenter 

for driving up costs is unrelated to the 

revisions as written. Therefore, EPA 

disagrees with the commenter that this 

comment provides a basis for 

disapproving this SIP Revision. 

IV. Final Action 

EPA is approving the 2010 amended 

MERR rule as a revision to the Delaware 

SIP. EPA has determined that 

Delaware’s 2010 amended MERR rule is 

consistent with the requirements and 

limits in the 2009 OTC MVMERR Model 

Rule. Therefore, its approval into the 

Delaware SIP would result in the VOC 

reductions in the 2010 amended MERR 

rule becoming federally enforceable and 

strengthen the SIP. 

V. Incorporation by Reference 

In this document, 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 revisions to 7 Del 

Admin. Code 1124 Control of Volatile 

Organic Compound Emissions Section 

11.0 Mobile Equipment Repair and 

Refinishing described in the 

amendments to 40 CFR part 52 set forth 

below. EPA has made, and will continue 

to make, these materials generally 

available through https://

www.regulations.gov and at the EPA 

Region III 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 rule of 

EPA’s approval, and will be 

incorporated by reference in the next 

update to the SIP compilation.3

VI. Statutory and Executive Order 

Reviews 

A. General Requirements 

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 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, 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 EPA notes that 

it will not impose substantial direct 

costs on tribal governments or preempt 

tribal law. 

B. Submission to Congress and the 

Comptroller General 

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 


jspears on DSK121TN23PROD with RULES1
18702 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 62 / Thursday, March 31, 2022 / Rules and Regulations 

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). 

C. Petitions for Judicial Review 

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 31, 2022. 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 pertaining to revisions to 

7 Del. Admin. Code 1124 Control of 

Volatile Organic Compound Emissions 

Section 11.0 Mobile Equipment Repair 

and Refinishing may not be challenged 

later in proceedings to enforce its 

requirements. (See section 307(b)(2).)

Air Plan Approval; Wisconsin; 

Redesignation of the Manitowoc, 

Wisconsin, Area to Attainment of the 

2015 Ozone Standard 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA) finds that the Manitowoc, 

Wisconsin, area is attaining the 2015 

ozone National Ambient Air Quality 

Standard (NAAQS or standard) and is 

approving, in accordance with a request 

from the Wisconsin Department of 

Natural Resources (WDNR), the 

redesignation of the area to attainment 

for the 2015 ozone NAAQS, because the 

request meets the statutory requirements 

for redesignation under the Clean Air 

Act (CAA). Also, EPA is approving 

WDNR’s certification that its stationary 

annual emissions statement regulation, 

which has been previously approved by 

EPA under a prior ozone standard, 

satisfies the CAA emission statement 

rule requirement for the 2015 ozone 

standard. WDNR submitted these 

requests on August 3, 2020, and October 

29, 2021. EPA is also approving, as a 

revision to the Wisconsin State 

Implementation Plan (SIP), the State’s 

plan for maintaining the 2015 ozone 

NAAQS through 2033 in the Manitowoc 

area. EPA also finds adequate and is 

approving Wisconsin’s 2025 and 2033 

volatile organic compound (VOC) and 

oxides of nitrogen (NOX) motor vehicle 

emission budgets for the Manitowoc 

area. These revisions satisfy the 

emissions inventory requirements for 

the partial Manitowoc area under the
