Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 97 / Wednesday, May 20, 2015 / Proposed Rules 28893 

throughout the development, 

submission and consideration of its 

proposed State Plan. Although OSHA 

has determined that the requirements 

and consultation procedures provided 

in Executive Order 13132 are not 

applicable to initial approval decisions 

under the Act, which have no effect 

outside the particular State receiving the 

approval, OSHA has reviewed the 

Maine initial approval decision 

proposed today, and believes it is 

consistent with the principles and 

criteria set forth in the Executive Order.

NAAQS Update 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Proposed rule. 

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA) is proposing to approve a 

revision to the Illinois State 

Implementation Plan. The submitted 

state rule revisions update Illinois’ 

ambient air quality standards for sulfur 

dioxide, ozone, nitrogen dioxide, lead, 

fine particulate matter, particulate 

matter, and carbon monoxide and bring 

them up to date (through 2012) with 

EPA-promulgated National Ambient Air 

Quality Standards. The SIP revision also 

adopts EPA-promulgated monitoring 

methods and test procedures for the 

revised state air quality standards.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the 

Final Rules section of this Federal 

Register, EPA is approving the State’s 

SIP submittal as a direct final rule 

without prior proposal because the 

Agency views this as a noncontroversial 

submittal and anticipates no adverse 

comments. A detailed rationale for the 

approval is set forth in the direct final 

rule. If no adverse comments are 

received in response to this rule, no 

further activity is contemplated. If EPA 

receives 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final rule will be withdrawn and all 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 rule. EPA will 

not institute a second comment period. 

Any parties interested in commenting 

on this action should do so at this time. 

Please note that, if EPA receives adverse 

comment on an amendment, paragraph, 

or section of this rule and if that 

provision may be severed from the 

remainder of the rule, EPA may adopt 

as final those provisions 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.

Region 9] 

Partial Approval and Disapproval of Air 

Quality State Implementation Plans; 

Nevada; Infrastructure Requirements 

for Ozone, Nitrogen Dioxide, and 

Sulfur Dioxide 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Proposed rule. 

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to partially 

approve and partially disapprove the 

Nevada State Implementation Plan (SIP) 

as meeting the requirements of the 

Clean Air Act (CAA or the Act) for the 

implementation, maintenance, and 

enforcement of the 2008 ozone, 2010 

nitrogen dioxide (NO2), and 2010 sulfur 

dioxide (SO2) national ambient air 

quality standards (NAAQS). CAA 

section 110(a)(1) requires that each state 

adopt and submit a SIP for the 

implementation, maintenance, and 

enforcement of each NAAQS 

promulgated by the EPA, and that EPA 

act on such SIPs. We refer to such SIPs 

as ‘‘infrastructure’’ SIPs because they 

are intended to address basic structural 

SIP requirements for new or revised 

NAAQS including, but not limited to, 

legal authority, regulatory structure, 

resources, permit programs, monitoring, 

and modeling necessary to assure 

attainment and maintenance of the 

standards. In addition to our proposed 

partial approval and partial disapproval 

of Nevada’s infrastructure SIP, we are 

proposing to reclassify certain regions of 

the state for SO2 emergency episode 

planning and remove obsolete language 

from the Nevada SIP. We are taking 

comments on this proposal and plan to 

follow with a final action. 

DATES: Written comments must be 

received on or before June 19, 2015. 

ADDRESSES: EPA has established a 

docket for this action, identified by 

Docket ID Number EPA–R09–OAR– 

2014–0812. The index to the docket for
