Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans; Florida: Non-
Interference Demonstration for Removal of Federal Low-Reid Vapor 
Pressure Requirement

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: EPA is approving the State of Florida's August 15, 2013, State 
Implementation Plan (SIP) revision to the State's approved maintenance 
plans addressing the 1997 8-hour ozone national ambient air quality 
standards (NAAQS). Florida's revision provides updated modeling and 
demonstrates that the Southeast Florida, Tampa Bay and Jacksonville 
areas would continue to maintain the 1997 8-hour ozone NAAQS if the 
currently applicable Federal Reid Vapor Pressure (RVP) standard for 
gasoline of 7.8 pounds per square inch (psi) was modified to a less 
stringent standard of 9.0 psi for Broward, Dade, Duval, Hillsborough, 
Palm Beach and Pinellas Counties (hereafter also referred to as the 
``Maintenance Plan Areas'') during the high-ozone season. The State 
included a technical demonstration with the August 15, 2013, SIP 
revision demonstrating that the less-stringent RVP in these Areas would 
not interfere with continued maintenance of the 1997 8-hour ozone NAAQS 
or any other applicable standard. Approval of the State's August 15, 
2013, SIP revision is a prerequisite for EPA's consideration of an 
amendment to the regulations to remove the Maintenance Plan Areas from 
the list of areas that are currently subject to the Federal 7.8 psi RVP 
requirements. EPA has determined that Florida's August 15, 2013, SIP 
revision with respect to the revised modeling and associated technical 
demonstration, and with respect to the use of updated models, is 
consistent with the applicable provisions of the Clean Air Act (CAA or 
Act). Should EPA decide to remove the subject portions of the 
Maintenance Plan Areas from those areas subject to the 7.8 psi Federal 
RVP requirements, such action will occur in a subsequent rulemaking. 
Also, on November 29, 2012, Florida requested removal of the existing 
SIP references to the previously-implemented inspection and maintenance 
programs in the Maintenance Plan Areas. Based upon a noninterference 
demonstration provided by the State, EPA previously approved revisions 
to remove the emission reduction credits associated with this program 
from the SIP. Through this action, EPA is now removing the specific SIP 
references to the defunct inspection and maintenance program based upon 
the State's earlier demonstration of noninterference.

DATES: This rule is effective February 5, 2014.

I. Background of the Areas

    On November 6, 1991 (56 FR 56694), EPA designated the Southeast 
Florida area (i.e., Broward, Dade and Palm Beach counties) as Moderate; 
the Jacksonville area (i.e., Duval County) as Transitional; and the 
Tampa area (i.e., Hillsborough and Pinellas counties) as Marginal 
nonattainment areas for the 1-hour ozone NAAQS. Among the requirements 
applicable to nonattainment areas for the 1-hour ozone NAAQS was the 
requirement to meet certain volatility standards (known as Reid Vapor 
Pressure or RVP) for gasoline sold commercially. See 55 FR 23658 (June 
11, 1990). As discussed in greater detail below, as part of the RVP 
requirements associated with these nonattainment designations, gasoline 
sold in the 1-hour ozone nonattainment areas could not exceed 7.8 psi 
RVP during the high-ozone season months.
    Following implementation of the 7.8 psi RVP requirement in the 
Southeast Florida, Jacksonville and Tampa areas, each area was 
redesignated to attainment for the 1-hour ozone NAAQS (60 FR 41 
(January 3, 1995); 60 FR 10326 (February 24, 1995); and 60 FR 62748 
(December 7, 1995), respectively).
    Included with Florida's redesignation requests, the State submitted 
the required 1-hour ozone monitoring data and maintenance plans 
ensuring that these areas would remain in attainment of the 1-hour 
ozone standard for at least a period of 10 years (consistent with CAA 
section 175A(a)). The maintenance plans submitted by Florida followed 
EPA guidance for maintenance areas subject to section 175A of the CAA. 
Florida later updated all three maintenance plans in accordance with 
section 175(A)(b) to extend the maintenance plans to cover additional 
years such that the entire maintenance period extended at least 20 
years after the initial redesignation of these areas to attainment for 
the 1-hour ozone NAAQS.
    These 1-hour ozone maintenance plan requirements remained in place 
for the Maintenance Plan Areas when they were subsequently designated 
unclassifiable/attainment for the subsequent 1997 8-hour ozone NAAQS 
\1\ and then designated unclassifiable/attainment for the revised 2008 
8-hour ozone NAAQS. See 77 FR 30088, May 21, 2012. However, the 
Maintenance Plan Areas were required to submit a 10-year maintenance 
plan under section 110(a)(1) of the CAA for the 1997 8-hour ozone 
NAAQS.\2\ As required, these 110(a)(1) maintenance plans provide for 
continued attainment and maintenance of the 1997 8-hour ozone NAAQS for 
at least 10 years from the effective date of these areas' designation 
as attainment for the 1997 8-hour ozone NAAQS. These plans also include 
components demonstrating how each area will continue to attain the 1997 
8-hour ozone NAAQS, and provide contingency measures should the area 
violate the NAAQS. Florida's ozone redesignation requests and 
maintenance plans for the Maintenance Plan Areas did not seek removal 
of the 7.8 psi RVP standard, and as such, these areas remain subject to 
the 7.8 psi RVP standard per the terms of their approved respective 
110(a)(1) maintenance plans.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ Effective June 15, 2004, Broward, Dade, Duval, Hillsborough, 
Palm Beach and Pinellas Counties in Florida were designated 
unclassifiable/attainment for the 1997 8-hour ozone NAAQS. See 69 FR 
23857. The same counties were designated as unclassifiable/
attainment for the 2008 8-hour ozone NAAQS. See 77 FR 30088.
    \2\ As noted above, maintenance areas for the 1-hour ozone 
standard designated attainment/unclassifiable for the 1997 8-hour 
ozone standard are required to submit a maintenance plan under 
section 110(a)(1) of the CAA demonstrating maintenance out to 10 
years after designation. See 69 FR 23996 (Apr. 30, 2004).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

II. What is the history of the gasoline volatility requirement?

    On August 19, 1987 (52 FR 31274), EPA determined that gasoline 
nationwide had become increasingly volatile, causing an increase in 
evaporative emissions from gasoline-powered vehicles and equipment. 
Evaporative emissions from gasoline, referred to as VOC, are precursors 
to the formation of tropospheric ozone and contribute to the nation's 
ground-level ozone problem. Exposure to ground-level ozone can reduce 
lung function (thereby aggravating asthma or other respiratory 
conditions), increase susceptibility to respiratory infection, and may 
contribute to premature death in people with heart and lung disease.
    The most common measure of fuel volatility that is useful in 
evaluating gasoline evaporative emissions is RVP. Pursuant to section 
211(c) of the CAA, EPA promulgated regulations on March 22, 1989 (54 FR 
11868), that set maximum limits for the RVP of gasoline sold during the 
high-ozone season. These regulations constituted Phase I of a two-phase 
nationwide program, which was designed to reduce the volatility of 
commercial gasoline during the high-ozone season. On June 11, 1990 (55 
FR 23658), EPA promulgated more stringent volatility controls as Phase 
II of the volatility control program. These requirements established 
maximum RVP standards of 9.0 psi or 7.8 psi (depending on the State, 
the month, and the area's initial ozone attainment designation with 
respect to the 1-hour ozone NAAQS during the high-ozone season).
    The 1990 CAA Amendments established a new section, 211(h), to 
address fuel volatility. Section 211(h) requires EPA to promulgate 
regulations making it unlawful to sell, offer for sale, dispense, 
supply, offer for supply, transport, or introduce into commerce 
gasoline with an RVP level in excess of 9.0 psi during the high-ozone 
season. Section 211(h) prohibits EPA from establishing a volatility 
standard more stringent than 9.0 psi in an attainment area, except that 
EPA may impose a lower (more stringent) standard in any former ozone 
nonattainment area redesignated to attainment.
    On December 12, 1991 (56 FR 64704), EPA modified the Phase II 
volatility regulations to be consistent with section 211(h) of the CAA. 
The modified regulations prohibited the sale of gasoline with an RVP 
above 9.0 psi in all areas designated attainment for ozone, beginning 
in 1992. For areas designated as nonattainment, the regulations 
retained the original Phase II standards published on June 11, 1990 (55 
FR 23658).
    As stated in the preamble to the Phase II volatility controls and 
reiterated in the proposed change to the volatility standards published 
in 1991, EPA will rely on states to initiate changes to EPA's 
volatility program that they believe will enhance local air quality 
and/or increase the economic efficiency of the program within the 
limits of CAA section 211(h).\3\ In those rulemakings, EPA explained 
that the Governor of a State may petition EPA to set a volatility 
standard less stringent than 7.8 psi for some month or months in a 
nonattainment area. The petition must demonstrate such a change is 
appropriate because of a particular local economic impact and that 
sufficient alternative programs are available to achieve attainment and 
maintenance of

[[Page 575]]

the 1-hour ozone NAAQS. A current listing of the RVP requirements for 
states can be found on EPA's Web site at: http://www.epa.gov/otaq/fuels/gasolinefuels/volatility/standards.htm.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ See 55 FR 23658 (June 11, 1990), 56 FR 24242 (May 29, 1991) 
and 56 FR 64704 (Dec. 12, 1991).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    As explained in the December 12, 1991 (56 FR 64704), Phase II 
rulemaking, EPA believes that relaxation of an applicable RVP standard 
in a nonattainment area is best accomplished in conjunction with the 
redesignation process. In order for an ozone nonattainment area to be 
redesignated as an attainment area, section 107(d)(3) of the Act 
requires the state to make a showing, pursuant to section 175A of the 
Act, that the area is capable of maintaining attainment for the ozone 
NAAQS for a period of ten years after redesignation. Depending on the 
Area's circumstances, this maintenance plan will either demonstrate 
that the area is capable of maintaining attainment for ten years 
without the more stringent volatility standard or that the more 
stringent volatility standard may be necessary for the area to maintain 
its attainment with the ozone NAAQS. Therefore, in the context of a 
request for redesignation, EPA will not relax the volatility standard 
unless the state requests a relaxation and the maintenance plan 
demonstrates, to the satisfaction of EPA, that the area will maintain 
attainment for ten years without the need for the more stringent 
volatility standard. As noted above, however, Florida did not request 
relaxation of the applicable 7.8 psi RVP standard when the 
Jacksonville, Southeast Florida and Tampa Areas were redesignated to 
attainment for the 1-hour ozone NAAQS. Rather, Florida is now seeking 
to relax the 7.8 psi RVP standard after these Areas have been 
redesignated to attainment for the 1-hour ozone NAAQS. Accordingly, the 
original modeling and maintenance demonstration supporting the section 
110(a)(1) ozone maintenance plans must be revised to reflect continued 
attainment under the relaxed 9.0 psi RVP standard that the State has 
requested.

III. Background of the Motor Vehicle Inspection Program

    The State of Florida previously implemented a motor vehicle 
inspection and maintenance program in the Jacksonville, Southeast 
Florida and Tampa areas as part of the State's strategy to meet the 1-
hour ozone NAAQS. This program was referred to as the Motor Vehicle 
Inspection Program (MVIP). On July 1, 2000, the Florida legislature 
terminated the MVIP for Jacksonville, Southeast Florida and Tampa, and 
removed the program's statutory authority. As a consequence of this 
repeal, FDEP developed and submitted SIP revisions to remove the 
emissions reductions attributable to this program in the aforementioned 
areas from the Florida SIP. Specifically, on December 10, 1999, FDEP 
submitted a revision to the SIP for the ozone air quality maintenance 
plans for the Jacksonville and Southeast Florida areas, and on August 
29, 2000, for the Tampa, Florida area. FDEP's submissions requested the 
removal of the emission reduction credits attributable to the MVIP from 
the future year emission projections contained in the maintenance plans 
and provided a demonstration that removal of the emission reductions 
associated with the MVIP would not interfere with any applicable 
requirement concerning attainment and reasonable further progress, or 
any other applicable requirement of the CAA. At the time, however, 
Florida did not also explicitly request removal from its SIP of the 
regulatory references to the MVIP program. Subsequently, in EPA's final 
rulemakings, published August 2, 2001 (66 FR 40137), and August 15, 
2002 (67 FR 53314), the Agency approved the SIP revisions removing the 
emissions reductions that were attributable to the inspection and 
maintenance program in the Maintenance Plan Areas, but the regulatory 
references to the MVIP program remained.
    Florida's December 10, 1999, and August 29, 2000, SIP revisions 
demonstrated that the Maintenance Plan Areas could maintain the ozone 
NAAQS without the implementation of the MVIP. EPA reviewed the State's 
emissions inventory and modeling analyses and found that they met the 
applicable guidance and requirements. Therefore, the State made the 
necessary demonstration that the MVIP was not necessary to maintain the 
ozone NAAQS and that attainment of the NAAQS for any other pollutant 
would not be affected by removing the MVIP from the SIP. However, 
because EPA did not remove Florida Code Annotated Section 62-242 from 
the table of EPA-approved rules at 40 CFR 52.520, on November 29, 2012, 
FDEP submitted a letter to EPA requesting that EPA remove these now-
defunct rules from the Florida SIP. In its letter, the State noted that 
these rules relate to the defunct MVIP, and also noted EPA's previous 
rulemakings to remove the emissions reductions attributable to this 
program in its SIP. The portion of today's action related to removal of 
the MVIP rules from the SIP is being taken in response to the State's 
November 29, 2012, request, and is based upon the previously approved 
non-interference demonstration provided by Florida to support the 
removal of the emission reduction credits associated with the now-
defunct inspection and maintenance program in the Southeast Florida, 
Tampa Bay and Jacksonville areas.
    EPA notes that the section 110(l) non-interference demonstration 
submitted by Florida in support of its requested RVP revisions is also 
premised upon the continued non-implementation of the now-discontinued 
MVIP in these areas.

IV. This Action

    On November 8, 2013 (78 FR 67090), EPA proposed approval of 
Florida's August 15, 2013, SIP revision to the State's approved 
maintenance plans addressing the 1997 8-hour ozone NAAQS in the 
Southeast Florida, Tampa Bay and Jacksonville areas. Specifically, 
Florida's revision, including updated modeling, shows that these areas 
would continue to maintain the 1997 8-hour ozone standard if the 
currently applicable Federal RVP standard for gasoline of 7.8 psi was 
modified to a less stringent standard of 9.0 psi for Broward, Dade, 
Duval, Hillsborough, Palm Beach and Pinellas Counties during the high-
ozone season. Florida's August 15, 2013, SIP revision, includes updated 
mobile source emissions modeling using EPA's approved models--Motor 
Vehicle Emissions Simulator (MOVES) and NONROAD2008--to support the 
request to modify the RVP gasoline requirement from 7.8 psi to 9.0 psi.
    Section 110(l) of the CAA requires that a revision to the SIP not 
interfere with any applicable requirement concerning attainment and 
reasonable further progress (as defined in section 171), or any other 
applicable requirement of the Act. EPA's criterion for determining the 
approvability of Florida's August 15, 2013, SIP revision is whether the 
requested action complies with section 110(l) of the CAA. Because the 
modeling associated with the current maintenance plans for Florida are 
premised in part upon the 7.8 psi RVP requirement, a request to revise 
the maintenance plan modeling to no longer rely on the 7.8 psi RVP 
requirement is subject to the requirements of CAA section 110(l). 
Therefore, the State must demonstrate that its August 15, 2013, SIP 
revision will not interfere with the attainment or maintenance of any 
of the NAAQS or any other applicable requirement of the CAA. EPA also 
notes that Florida's technical demonstration in its August 15, 2013, 
SIP revision accounts for the

[[Page 576]]

absence of the previously-implemented inspection and maintenance 
programs in the Maintenance Plan Areas.
    The section 110(l) non-interference demonstration is a case-by-case 
determination based upon the circumstances of each SIP revision. EPA 
interprets 110(l) as applying to all NAAQS that are in effect, 
including those that have been promulgated, but for which the EPA has 
not yet made designations. The specific elements of the 110(l) analysis 
contained in the SIP revision depend on the circumstances and emissions 
analyses associated with that revision. EPA's analysis of Florida's 
August 15, 2013, SIP revision, including review of section 110(l) 
requirements, can be found in the proposed rule published on November 
8, 2013 (78 FR 67090). The specific revisions to the maintenance plan 
modeling that EPA is approving are the ozone maintenance plan 
attainment inventories, emissions projections and air quality 
monitoring data. The revised modeling also utilizes updated models to 
calculate the mobile source emissions.
    Also, based on a request by the State on November 29, 2012, EPA is 
removing the existing SIP references related to the previously-
implemented inspection and maintenance programs in the Maintenance Plan 
Areas. As discussed above, Florida discontinued this program and 
submitted SIP revisions in 1999 and 2000 to remove the emissions 
reduction credits associated with the MVIP program from its SIP. See 66 
FR 40137; 67 FR 53314. At the time, Florida demonstrated that removal 
of these emission credits would not interfere with any applicable 
requirement concerning attainment and reasonable further progress (as 
defined in section 171), or any other applicable requirement of the 
Act. In addition, the State's technical demonstration provided with the 
August 15, 2013, RVP-related SIP revision also demonstrates that the 
less-stringent RVP standard and the absence of an inspection and 
maintenance program in these areas would not interfere with continued 
maintenance of the 1997 8-hour ozone NAAQS or any other applicable 
standard.
    EPA received no adverse comments on its proposed action and is 
therefore finalizing the proposed action.

V. Final Action

    EPA is approving the State of Florida's August 15, 2013, SIP 
revision to its 1997 8-hour ozone NAAQS 110(a)(1) Maintenance Plans for 
the Maintenance Plan Areas. Specifically, EPA is approving the State's 
showing that the Maintenance Plan Areas can continue to maintain the 
1997 ozone standard without the emissions reductions associated with 
both the previously-implemented MVIP, and the use of gasoline with an 
RVP of 7.8 psi during the high-ozone season--June 1 through September 
15 in the Maintenance Plan Areas. Also, EPA is approving the updated 
attainment inventories, emissions projections and air quality 
monitoring which are associated with the updated and revised modeling 
related to the change in the applicable RVP standard, and the absence 
of the previously-implemented inspection and maintenance programs for 
the Maintenance Plan Areas. Additionally, EPA is removing Florida Code 
Annotated Section 62-242, which pertains to the now-defunct MVIP, from 
the Florida SIP.
    EPA has determined that Florida's August 15, 2013 SIP revision, 
including the technical demonstration associated with the State's 
request for the removal of the Federal RVP requirements, and the 
updated attainment inventory, emissions projections and air quality 
monitoring data, and the removal of the MVIP-related sections of the 
Florida SIP are consistent with the applicable provisions of the CAA. 
Should EPA decide to remove the subject portions of the Maintenance 
Plan Areas from those areas subject to the 7.8 psi Federal RVP 
requirements, such action will occur in a separate rulemaking.

VI. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

    Under the CAA, the Administrator is required to approve a SIP 
submittal that complies with the provisions of the 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 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 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 in 
Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, October 7, 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).

In addition, this rule does not have tribal implications as specified 
by Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000), because the 
SIP is not approved to apply in Indian country located in the state, 
and EPA notes that it will not 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 March 7, 2014. 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

[[Page 577]]

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).
