Air Plan Approval; North Carolina; 

Revision to Approved Motor Vehicle 

Emissions Budgets 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA) is approving a revision to 

the North Carolina State 

Implementation Plan (SIP), submitted 

on July 16, 2020, by the State of North 

Carolina, through the North Carolina 

Department of Environment and Natural 

Resources, Division of Air Quality 

(NCDAQ) for the purpose of allocating 

a portion of the available 2026 safety 

margin in the 2008 8-hour Ozone 

Maintenance Plan to the 2026 nitrogen 

oxides (NOX) and volatile organic 

compounds (VOC) motor vehicle 

emissions budgets (‘‘MVEBs’’ or 

‘‘budgets’’) for the North Carolina 

portion of the Charlotte-Rock Hill, NCSC bi-state Area (hereinafter referred to 

as the ‘‘North Carolina portion of the 

Charlotte Maintenance Area’’) to 

account for uncertainty associated with 

the mobile emissions model and 

unanticipated growth in vehicle miles 

traveled for the North Carolina portion 

of the Charlotte Maintenance Area. The 

revision also updates the 2026 MVEBs 

which are used for transportation 

conformity. NCDAQ’s July 16, 2020, 

submission supplements the revised 

2008 8-hour Ozone Maintenance Plan 

submitted by NCDAQ on July 25, 2018, 

and approved by EPA on September 11, 

2019. EPA is approving North Carolina’s 

July 16, 2020, supplemental SIP revision 

pursuant to the Clean Air Act (CAA or 

Act) and deeming the MVEBs adequate 

for transportation conformity purposes 

because the SIP meets all the statutory 

and regulatory requirements. 

DATES: This rule is effective September 

24, 2021.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. This Action 

EPA is approving NCDAQ’s July 16, 

2020, SIP revision allocating a portion 

of the available safety margin to revise 

the 2026 NOX and VOC budgets for the 

North Carolina portion of Charlotte 2008 

8-hour Ozone Maintenance Area for 

transportation conformity purposes. 

NCDAQ requested approval of the July 

16, 2020, SIP revision in order to 

account for unanticipated changes in 

the travel demand model, such as 

unanticipated growth in vehicle miles 

traveled, changes and uncertainty in 

vehicle mix assumptions, and 

uncertainty associated with mobile 

emissions modeling. 

Upon approval, the revised 2026 

budgets from NCDAQ’s July 16, 2020, 

SIP revision will replace the existing 

budgets in the State’s 2008 8-hour 

Ozone Maintenance Plan revision 

approved on September 11, 2019. See 84 

FR 47889. These newly revised NOX

and VOC 2026 budgets must be used in 

future transportation conformity 

analyses for the Area according to the 

transportation conformity rule. See 40 

CFR 93.118. Also, all emissions 

inventories (on-road, point, area, and 

nonroad) from NCDAQ’s September 11, 

2019, SIP revision remain the same. 

This action only approves the allocation 

of a portion of the available safety 

margin to the 2026 NOX and VOC 

MVEBs. EPA is approving North 

Carolina’s July 16, 2020, SIP revision 

because it continues to demonstrate 

maintenance for the Charlotte 

Maintenance Area. 

II. Background 

Effective July 20, 2012, EPA 

designated the Charlotte-Rock Hill, NCSC Area as Marginal nonattainment for 

the 2008 8-hour ozone national ambient 

air quality standard (hereinafter referred 

to as NAAQS or standard). The North 

Carolina portion of the Charlotte 2008 

Maintenance Area includes 

Mecklenburg in its entirety and portions 

of Cabarrus, Gaston, Iredell, Lincoln, 

Rowan, and Union counties. The 

Charlotte Maintenance Area also 

includes a portion of York County 

located in Rock Hill, South Carolina. 

See 77 FR 30088. The North Carolina 

portion of the Charlotte Maintenance 

Area is comprised of three metropolitan 

planning organizations (MPOs): The 

Charlotte Regional Transportation 

Planning Organization (CRTPO) which 

covers Iredell, Mecklenburg, and Union 

counties; the Cabarrus-Rowan 

Metropolitan Planning Organization 

(CRMPO) which covers Cabarrus and 

Rowan counties; and the GastonCleveland-Lincoln Metropolitan

47388 Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 162 / Wednesday, August 25, 2021 / Rules and Regulations 

1A safety margin is the difference between the 

attainment level of emissions from all source 

categories (i.e., point, area, on-road, and nonroad) and the projected level of emissions in the 

maintenance year from all source categories. 

Planning Organization (GCLMPO) 

which covers Gaston, Cleveland, and 

Lincoln counties. Although Cleveland 

County is included in the GCLMPO 

planning boundary, it was not included 

in the North Carolina portion of the 

Charlotte Maintenance Area. Each MPO 

has its own budget referred to as a ‘‘subarea budget or sub-area MVEBs.’’ The 

York County, South Carolina portion of 

this maintenance area has a separate 

MPO and budgets. The South Carolina 

portion of the maintenance area 

implements transportation conformity 

independent of the North Carolina 

portion. 

EPA originally approved NCDAQ’s 

2008 8-hour ozone redesignation request 

and maintenance SIP for the North 

Carolina portion of the Charlotte 

Maintenance Area on July 28, 2015 (80 

FR 44873), with base year NOX and VOC 

actual emissions inventories for 2014; 

projected, future, interim year 

inventories for 2015, 2018, and 2022; 

and projected final year emission 

inventory for 2026. On August 17, 2015 

(80 FR 49164), EPA approved North 

Carolina’s section 110(l) noninterference 

demonstration requesting relaxation of 

the Federal Reid Vapor Pressure from 

7.8 pounds per square inch (psi) to 9.0 

psi and a revision to the 2026 NOX and 

VOC sub-area MVEBs for Mecklenburg 

and Gaston Counties only. See 80 FR 

44868. 

On September 11, 2019 (84 FR 47889), 

EPA approved NCDAQ’s July 25, 2018, 

SIP revision related to North Carolina’s 

I/M Program. The September 11, 2019, 

SIP approval updated the on-road 

mobile source inventory and revised the 

2026 sub-area VOC and NOX budgets; 

these remain the current SIP-approved 

MVEBs and inventories. The revised 

2026 MVEBs became effective on 

October 11, 2019. 

EPA’s analysis of North Carolina’s 

July 16, 2020, SIP submittal indicates 

that maintenance will continue to be 

demonstrated for the Charlotte 

Maintenance Area after allocation of a 

portion of the safety margin to the 2026 

MVEBs because the total level of 

emissions from all source categories 

remains equal to or less than the 

attainment level of emissions. 

In a notice of proposed rulemaking 

(NPRM), published in the Federal 

Register on June 23, 2021 (86 FR 32850), 

EPA proposed to approve the July 16, 

2020, SIP revision. The details of North 

Carolina’s submittal and the rationale 

for EPA’s action are further explained in 

the NPRM. Comments on the June 23, 

2021, NPRM were due on or before July 

23, 2021. EPA did not receive any 

comments. 

Tables 1 through 3, below, provide 

the newly revised 2026 NOX and VOC 

sub-area MVEBs with the new safety 

margin 1 allocations in kilograms per 

day (kg/day) for transportation 

conformity purposes (2014 is only 

shown for illustration because no 

changes are being made to the MVEBs 

for that year).

III. Final Action 

EPA has evaluated North Carolina’s 

submittal and has determined that it 

meets the applicable requirements of the 

CAA and EPA regulations, and is 

consistent with EPA policy. 

Therefore, EPA is approving 

NCDAQ’s July 16, 2020 SIP revision 

requesting to revise the Charlotte 2008 

8-hr Ozone Maintenance Plan in order 

to allocate a portion of the available 

safety margin to the 2026 NOX and VOC 

MVEBs. The revised MVEBs ensure 

continued attainment of the 2008 8-hour 

ozone NAAQS through the maintenance 

year 2026. In addition, EPA is deeming 

the MVEBs adequate for transportation 

conformity purposes because the 

budgets meet the adequacy criteria in 

the conformity rule at 40 CFR 

93.118(e)(4). Within 24 months from the 

effective date of this approval, the 

transportation partners are required to 

demonstrate conformity to the revised 

NOX and VOC MVEBs pursuant to 40 

CFR 93.104(e). 

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 

Act and applicable Federal regulations. 

See 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 they meet the criteria of the 

CAA. 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). 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 as specified by Executive 

Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 

2000), nor will it impose substantial 

direct costs on tribal governments or 

preempt tribal law. 

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 

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). 

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 October 25, 2021. 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 may not 

be challenged later in proceedings to 

enforce its requirements. See section 

307(b)(2).

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA) is approving under the 

Clean Air Act (CAA), a revision to 

Ohio’s State Implementation Plan (SIP), 

submitted by the Ohio Environmental 

Protection Agency (OEPA) on November 

12, 2020, and supplemented on 

February 11, 2021. OEPA requested to 

remove the Ohio Administrative Code 

(OAC) Permit Fees rule provisions from 

the Ohio SIP because they no longer 

exist at the state level and have been 

superseded by the fee system in Ohio’s 

Title V permitting program and the Ohio 

Revised Code (ORC). OEPA rescinded 

the permit fee rules at the state level in 

2003. EPA proposed to approve this 

action on April 13, 2021, and received 

no comments. 

DATES: This final rule is effective on 

September 24, 2021. 

ADDRESSES: EPA has established a 

docket for this action under Docket ID 

No. EPA–R05–OAR–2020–0602. All

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Throughout this document whenever 

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

EPA. 

I. Background Information 

On April 13, 2021, EPA proposed to 

approve the removal of all OAC Chapter 

3745–45 provisions from the Ohio SIP 

(86 FR 19174). An explanation of the 

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 May 13, 2021. EPA received 

no comments on the proposal. 

Therefore, we are finalizing our action 

as proposed. 

II. Final Action 

EPA is approving the removal of 

Ohio’s OAC Chapter 3745–45 Permit 

Fee rule from the Ohio SIP. Removing 

OAC Chapter 3745–45 from the Ohio 

SIP is consistent with Federal 

regulations governing state permitting 

programs and would not interfere with 

reasonable further progress or 

attainment of any national ambient air 

quality standards. 

III. Incorporation by Reference 

In this rule, EPA is amending 

regulatory text that includes 

incorporation by reference. As described 

in the amendments to 40 CFR part 52 set 

forth below, EPA is removing provisions 

of the EPA-Approved Ohio Regulations 

from the Ohio SIP, which is 

incorporated by reference in accordance 

with the requirements of 1 CFR part 51. 

EPA has made, and will continue to 

make the SIP generally available 

through 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). 

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 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
