[FRL–5179–5]

Notice of Proposed Rule; Outer

Continental Shelf Consistency Update

for Florida

AGENCY: Environmental Protection

Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking;

consistency update.

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to update a

portion of the Outer Continental Shelf

(‘‘OCS’’) Air Regulations. Requirements

applying to OCS sources located within

25 miles of states’ seaward boundaries

must be updated periodically to remain

consistent with the requirements of the

corresponding onshore area (‘‘COA’’), as

mandated by section 328(a)(1) of the

Clean Air Act (‘‘the Act’’), the Clean Air

Act Amendments of 1990, the

applicable requirements for certain

areas for Air Pollution from OCS

Activities. The portion of the OCS air

regulation that is being updated pertains

to the requirements for OCS sources for

which the State of Florida will be the

designated COA. This action proposes

to incorporate the requirements

contained in ‘‘State of Florida

Requirements Applicable to OCS

Sources’’ (January 11, 1995). Proposed

changes to the existing requirements are

discussed below.

DATES: Comments on the proposed

update must be received on or before

May 15, 1995.

ADDRESSES: Comments must be mailed

(in duplicate if possible) to EPA Air

ext. 4144.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On

September 4, 1992, EPA promulgated 40

CFR part 55,1 which established

requirements to control air pollution

from OCS sources in order to comply

with federal and state ambient air

quality standards and the provisions of

part C of title I of the Act. Part 55

applies to all OCS sources offshore of

the states, except those located in the

Gulf of Mexico west of 87.5 degrees

longitude, approximately west of the

Florida/Alabama state border. Section

328 of the Act requires that for such

sources located within 25 miles of a

state’s seaward boundary, the

requirements shall be the same as would

be applicable if the sources were located

in the COA. Because the OCS

requirements are based on onshore

requirements, and onshore requirements

may change, section 328(a)(1) requires

that EPA update the OCS requirements

as necessary to maintain consistency

with onshore requirements.

Pursuant to § 55.12 of the OCS rule,

consistency reviews will occur: (1) At

least annually; (2) upon receipt of a

Notice of Intent (NOI) under § 55.4 of

the OCS rule; and (3) when a state or

local agency submits a rule to EPA to be

considered for incorporation by

reference in part 55. This Notice of

Proposed Rulemaking is being proposed

in response to the receipt of a NOI,

submitted by Chevron U.S.A., Inc.,

Conoco Inc., and Murphy Exploration &

Production Company on February 10,

1995, and represents the second update

of part 55 for the State of Florida. The

NOI includes general company

information, a description of the

proposed facility, estimated potential air

emissions, emissions points, fuels, air

pollution controls, and any proposed

operating limitations. Public comments

received in writing within 30 days of

publication of this notice will be

considered by EPA before promulgation

of the final updated rule.

Section 328(a) of the Act requires that

EPA establish requirements to control

air pollution from OCS sources located

within 25 miles of states’ seaward

boundaries that are the same as onshore

requirements. To comply with this

statutory mandate, EPA must
18788 Federal Register / Vol. 60, No. 71 / Thursday, April 13, 1995 / Proposed Rules

2Upon delegation the onshore area will use its

administrative and procedural rules as onshore. In

those instances where EPA does not delegate

authority to implement and enforce part 55, EPA

will use its own administrative and procedural

requirements to implement the substantive

requirements. 40 CFR 55.14 (c)(4).

incorporate applicable onshore rules

into part 55 as they exist onshore. This

limits EPA’s flexibility in deciding

which requirements will be

incorporated into part 55 and prevents

EPA from making substantive changes

to the requirements it incorporates. As

a result, EPA may be incorporating rules

into part 55 that do not conform to all

of EPA’s state implementation plan

(SIP) guidance or certain requirements

of the Act. Consistency updates may

result in the inclusion of state or local

rules or regulations into part 55, even

though the same rules may ultimately be

disapproved for inclusion as part of the

SIP. Inclusion in the OCS rule does not

imply that a rule meets the requirements

of the Act for SIP approval, nor does it

imply that the rule will be approved by

EPA for inclusion in the SIP.

EPA Evaluation and Proposed Action

In updating 40 CFR part 55, EPA

reviewed the state rules for inclusion in

part 55 to ensure that they comply with

the attainment or maintenance of federal

or state ambient air quality standards or

part C of title I of the Act, that they are

not designed expressly to prevent

exploration and development of the

OCS and that they are applicable to OCS

sources (40 CFR 55.1). EPA has also

evaluated the rules to ensure they are

not arbitrary or capricious (40 CFR

55.12 (e)). In addition, EPA has

excluded administrative or procedural

rules.2

In today’s notice EPA proposes to

incorporate the rules applicable to

sources for which the State of Florida

will be the COA. These rules include

revisions to existing rules that already

apply to OCS sources and are a result

of the recodification and renumbering of

Florida air regulations (Adopted 11/30/

94) and the adoption of amendments to

other existing air regulations:

requirements applicable to OCS sources.

It will be superseded by the provisions

of another rule.

Requirements (Repealed 11/23/94)

Administrative Requirements

A. Executive Order 12291 (Regulatory

Impact Analysis)

The Office of Management and Budget

has exempted this rule from the

requirements of Section 3 of Executive

Order 12291. This exemption continues

in effect under Executive Order 12866,

which superseded Executive Order

12291 on September 30, 1993.

B. Regulatory Flexibility Act

The Regulatory Flexibility Act of 1980

requires each federal agency to perform

a Regulatory Flexibility Analysis for all

rules that are likely to have a

‘‘significant impact on a substantial

number of small entities.’’ Small entities

include small businesses, organizations,

and governmental jurisdictions.

As was stated in the final regulation,

the OCS rule does not apply to any

small entities, and the structure of the

rule averts direct impacts and mitigates

indirect impacts on small entities. This

consistency update merely incorporates

onshore requirements into the OCS rule

to maintain consistency with onshore

regulations as required by section 328 of

the Act and does not alter the structure

of the rule.

The EPA certifies that this notice of

proposed rulemaking will not have a

significant impact on a substantial

number of small entities.

C. Paperwork Reduction Act

The Office of Management and Budget

(OMB) has approved the information

collection requirements contained in the

final OCS rulemaking dated September

4, 1992, under the provisions of the

Paperwork Reduction Act, 44 U.S.C.

35012 et seq., and has assigned OMB

control number 2060–0249. This

consistency update does not add any

further requirements.

[OH001; FRL–5189–8]

Clean Air Act Proposed Approval of

Operating Permit Program; Ohio

AGENCY: Environmental Protection

Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed full approval.

SUMMARY: The EPA proposes full

approval of the operating permit

program submitted by the State of Ohio

for the purpose of complying with

Federal requirements which mandate

that States develop, and submit to EPA,

programs for issuing operating permits

to all major stationary sources and to

certain other sources.

DATES: Comments on this proposed

action must be received in writing by

May 15, 1995.

ADDRESSES: Comments should be

addressed to Steven Pak at the Region

5 address. Copies of the State’s

submittal and other supporting

information used in developing the

proposed full approval are available for

inspection during normal business

hours at the following location: EPA

Region 5, Air and Radiation Division

(AE–17J), 77 West Jackson Boulevard,

Chicago, Illinois 60604.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Steven Pak, EPA Region 5, Air and

Radiation Division (AE–17J), 77 West

Jackson Boulevard, Chicago, Illinois

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background and Purpose

As required under title V of the Clean

Air Act (‘‘the Act’’) as amended by the

1990 Clean Air Act Amendments, EPA

promulgated rules on July 21, 1992 (57

FR 32250), which define the minimum

elements of an approvable State

operating permit program and the

corresponding standards and

procedures by which EPA will approve,

oversee, and withdraw approval of State

operating permit programs. These rules

are codified at 40 Code of Federal

Regulations (CFR) part 70. Title V and

part 70 require that States develop, and

submit to EPA, programs for issuing

operating permits to all major stationary

sources and to certain other sources.

The Act requires that States develop

and submit these programs to EPA by

November 15, 1993, and that EPA act to

approve or disapprove each program

within one year after receiving the

submittal. If the State’s submission is

materially changed during the one-year

review period, 40 CFR 70.4(e)(2) allows

EPA to extend the review period for no

more than one year following receipt of

the additional materials. Because Ohio

provided EPA with additional materials

that materially changed the State’s Title

V program submittal on September 12,

1994, November 21, 1994, December 9,

1994, and January 5, 1995, EPA has

extended the review period and will

work expeditiously to promulgate a

final decision on the State’s program.

EPA reviews State operating permit

programs pursuant to section 502 of the

Act and 40 CFR part 70, which together

outline criteria for approval or

disapproval. When a program

substantially, but not fully, meets the

requirements of 40 CFR part 70, EPA

may grant the program interim approval

for a period of up to two years. If EPA

has not fully approved a program by

November 15, 1995, or by the end of an

interim program, it must establish and

implement a Federal operating permit

program for that State.
