36768 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 118 / Tuesday, June 21, 2022 / Rules and Regulations 

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 

establishing an anchorage ground, 

Anchorage A, in an area traditionally 

used by cargo ships for anchoring in the 

approaches to the Cape Fear River, NC; 

and increasing the size of and relocating 

the Lockwoods Folly Inlet explosives 

anchorage to an area adjacent to 

Anchorage A (on its western boundary), 

expanding its use, and renaming it 

Anchorage B. It is categorically 

excluded from further review under 

paragraph L[59(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.

persons and vessels for transitory use, 

but vessel operators desiring to anchor 

or otherwise loiter within the safety 

zone must obtain the permission of the 

Captain of the Port San Francisco or a 

designated representative. All persons

Air Plan Approval; North Carolina; 

North Carolina BART Rule Revisions 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA) is finalizing approval of

Clean Air Act (CAA or Act) 

requirements. 

DATES: This rule is effective July 21, 

2022.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

Regional haze is visibility impairment 

that is produced by a multitude of 

sources and activities which are located 

across a broad geographic area and emit 

fine particulate matter (PM2.5) (e.g., 

sulfates, nitrates, organic carbon, 

elemental carbon, and soil dust) and 

their precursors (e.g., sulfur dioxide, 

nitrogen oxides, and in some cases, 

ammonia and volatile organic 

compounds). Fine particle precursors 

react in the atmosphere to form PM2.5, 

which impairs visibility by scattering 

and absorbing light. Visibility 

impairment (i.e., light scattering) 

reduces the clarity, color, and visible 

distance that one can see. 

In sections 169A and 169B of the 

CAA, Congress created a program for 

protecting visibility in the nation’s 

national parks and wilderness areas. 

The CAA establishes as a national goal 

the prevention of any future, and the 

remedying of any existing, 

anthropogenic impairment of visibility 

in 156 national parks and wilderness 

areas designated as mandatory Class I 

federal areas. Section 169A of the CAA 

directs states to evaluate the use of 

retrofit controls at certain larger, often 

uncontrolled, older stationary sources in 

order to address visibility impacts from 

these sources, often referred to as BART 

sources. The BART process includes 

evaluating retrofit controls for certain 

older sources, built between 1962 and 

1977, which are identified as causing or 

contributing to visibility impairment at 

one or more Class I areas. 

On April 27, 2022 (87 FR 24930), EPA 

proposed approval of an April 13, 2021, 

SIP revision from North Carolina, which 

modifies North Carolina’s SIP-approved 

rule at 15A North Carolina 

Administrative Code (NCAC) 02D .0543, 

Best Available Retrofit Technology (NC 

BART Rule) and applies to BARTeligible sources.1 See 87 FR 24930. 

Comments on the April 27, 2022, NPRM 

were due on or before May 27, 2022. No 

public comments, adverse or otherwise, 

were received on the April 27, 2022, 

NPRM. For additional background on 

regional haze, BART, and the NC BART 

Rule, see the April 27, 2022 NPRM.
