SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Throughout this document whenever “we,” “us,” or “our” is used, we mean EPA. This 
                    **supplementary information**
                     section is arranged as follows: I. What is the background for this action? II. What revision did the State request be incorporated into the SIP? III. What action is EPA taking? IV. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews I. What is the background for this action? On September 17, 2014, IDEM submitted a request to revise the definitions of “References to the Code of Federal Regulations,” and “Board.” On March 19, 2014, IDEM published a “Notice of Public Information” in several newspapers, and on their Web site at
                    *http://www.in.gov/​idem/​6777.htm*, providing a 30-day public comment period on the proposed revision to its SIP concerning updates to definitions of “References to the Code of Federal Regulations,” and “Board.” The notice also informed the public that a hearing was scheduled for April 9, 2014. A public hearing was held on April 9, 2014. IDEM did not receive any comments. II. What revision did the State request be incorporated into the SIP? IDEM has requested that revisions to Indiana's SIP include: Rule 326 IAC 1-1-3, Definition of “References to Code of Federal Regulations” IDEM updated the reference to the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) in 326 IAC 1-1-3 from the 2011 edition to the 2013 edition. This is solely an administrative change that allows Indiana to reference a more current version of the CFR. By amending 326 IAC 1-1-3 to reference the most current version of the CFR, the provision in Title 326 of the IAC will be consistent and current with Federal regulations. Rule 326 IAC 1-2-6.5, Definition of “Board” IDEM made a minor revision to its definition of “Board.” Currently, SIP rule 326 IAC 1-2-6.5 defines “Board” as the “air pollution control board,” 
                    *i.e.,*
                     the Indiana Air Pollution Control Board. In 2013, the Air Pollution Control Board, Water Pollution Control Board, and the Solid Waste Management Board were consolidated into the new Environmental Rules Board. The rule has been revised to reflect this consolidation of boards in the state rules. III. What action is EPA taking? EPA is approving revisions to the Indiana SIP to update 326 IAC 1-1-3, “References to the Code of Federal Register”, and the definition of “Board,” at 326 IAC 1-2-6.5. We are publishing this action without prior proposal because we view this as a noncontroversial amendment and anticipate no adverse comments. However, in the proposed rules section of this 
                    **Federal Register**
                     publication, we are publishing a separate document that will serve as the proposal to approve the state plan if relevant adverse written comments are filed. This rule will be effective February 2, 2015 without further notice unless we receive relevant adverse written comments by January 2, 2015. If we receive such comments, we will withdraw this action before the effective date by publishing a subsequent document that will withdraw the final action. All public comments received will then be addressed in a subsequent final rule based on the proposed action. The EPA will not institute a second comment period. Any parties interested in commenting on this action should do so at this time. If we do not receive any comments, this action will be effective February 2, 2015. IV. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews Under the Clean Air Act, the Administrator is required to approve a SIP submission that complies with the provisions of the Clean Air Act 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 Clean Air Act. 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 underExecutive Order 12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993);
                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 inExecutive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999);
                Is not an economically significant regulatory action based on health or safety risks subject toExecutive Order 13045 (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997);
                Is not a significant regulatory action subject toExecutive 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 Clean Air Act; 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, underExecutive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994). This rule 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, 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, 
                    ( print page 71674)
                    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 Clean Air Act, petitions for judicial review of this action must be filed in the United States Court of Appeals for the appropriate circuit by February 2, 2015. 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. Parties with objections to this direct final rule are encouraged to file a comment in response to the parallel notice of proposed rulemaking for this action published in the Proposed Rules section of today's 
                    **Federal Register**
                    , rather than file an immediate petition for judicial review of this direct final rule and address the comment in the proposed rulemaking. This action may not be challenged later in proceedings to enforce its requirements. (See section 307(b)(2).) List of Subjects in 40 CFR Part 52 Environmental protection
