[EPA-HQ-OAR-2012-0918; FRL-9925-76-OAR]

Additional Air Quality Designations and Technical Amendment To 
Correct Inadvertent Error in Air Quality Designations for the 2012 
Primary Annual Fine Particle (PM2.5) National Ambient Air 
Quality Standards (NAAQS)

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is establishing air 
quality designations in the United States (U.S.) for the 2012 primary 
annual fine particle (PM2.5) National Ambient Air Quality 
Standards (NAAQS) for five areas in Georgia and neighboring counties in 
Alabama and South Carolina. The EPA is also changing the initial 
designation of one area in Ohio, two areas in Pennsylvania, one area 
shared between Indiana and Kentucky, and one area shared between 
Kentucky and Ohio for the 2012 PM2.5 NAAQS. These states 
have recently submitted complete, quality-assured, and certified air 
quality data for 2014, and based on that data the EPA is finalizing 
appropriate initial designations for these areas. Lastly, the EPA is 
making one minor technical amendment to correct an inadvertent error in 
the initial designation for a county in Pennsylvania with respect to 
the 2012 PM2.5 NAAQS.

DATES: This final rule is effective on April 15, 2015.

I. Background

    On December 14, 2012, the EPA promulgated a revised primary annual 
PM2.5 NAAQS to provide increased protection of public health 
and welfare from fine particle pollution (78 FR 3086; January 15, 
2013). In that action, the EPA revised the primary annual 
PM2.5 standard, strengthening it from 15.0 micrograms per 
cubic meter ([mu]g/m\3\) to 12.0 [mu]g/m\3\, which is attained when the 
3-year average of the annual arithmetic means does not exceed 12.0 
[mu]g/m\3\.
    Section 107(d) of the Clean Air Act (CAA), 42 U.S.C. 7407(d), 
governs the process for initial area designations after the EPA 
establishes a new or revised NAAQS. Under section 107(d), each governor 
is required to, and each tribal leader may, if they so choose,

[[Page 18536]]

recommend air quality designations, including the appropriate 
boundaries for ``nonattainment'' areas, to the EPA by a date which 
cannot be later than 1 year after the promulgation of a new or revised 
NAAQS. The EPA considers these recommendations as part of its duty to 
promulgate the formal area designations and boundaries for the new or 
revised NAAQS. If, after careful consideration of these 
recommendations, public input received and the EPA's own technical 
analyses, the EPA believes that it is necessary to modify a state's 
recommendation and to promulgate a designation different from a state's 
recommendation, then the EPA must notify the state at least 120 days 
prior to promulgating the final designation and the EPA must provide 
the state an opportunity to demonstrate why any proposed modification 
is inappropriate. These modifications may relate either to an area's 
designation category or to the boundaries of an area.
    On December 18, 2014, the Administrator of the EPA signed a final 
action promulgating initial designations for the 2012 PM2.5 
NAAQS for the majority of the U.S., including areas of Indian country. 
That rulemaking, which published in the Federal Register on January 15, 
2015 (80 FR 2206), designated 14 areas in six states, including two 
multi-state areas, as nonattainment for the 2012 PM2.5 
NAAQS. The EPA also designated three areas, including the entire state 
of Illinois, as ``unclassifiable'' because the ambient air quality 
monitoring sites in these areas lacked complete data for the relevant 
period from 2011-2013. In the absence of complete monitoring data, the 
EPA could not determine, based on available information, whether these 
areas meet or do not meet the NAAQS, and also could not determine 
whether these areas contribute to a nearby violation. Lastly, the EPA 
deferred initial area designations for 10 areas where available data, 
including air quality monitoring data, were insufficient to determine 
whether the areas meet or do not meet the NAAQS. For these areas, the 
EPA noted that it believed additional future air quality monitoring 
data would result in complete and valid data sufficient to inform a 
designation determination. Accordingly, the EPA deferred designations 
for these areas and stated that it would use the additional time 
available as provided under section 107(d)(1)(B) of the CAA to assess 
relevant information and subsequently promulgate initial designations 
for the identified areas through a separate rulemaking action or 
actions. The 10 deferred areas included: Eight areas in the state of 
Georgia, including two neighboring counties in the bordering states of 
Alabama and South Carolina; the entire state of Tennessee, excluding 
three counties in the Chattanooga area; and, the entire state of 
Florida. The EPA designated all the remaining state areas and areas of 
Indian country as unclassifiable/attainment. Consistent with the EPA's 
``Policy for Establishing Separate Air Quality Designations for Areas 
of Indian Country'' (December 20, 2011), the EPA designated one area of 
Indian country separately from its adjacent/surrounding state areas.\1\ 
The lands of the Pechanga Band of Luise[ntilde]o Mission Indians in 
Southern California were designated as a separate unclassifiable/
attainment area.

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

    The EPA's January 15, 2015, rulemaking also described a process by 
which the EPA would evaluate any complete, quality-assured, certified 
air quality monitoring data from 2014 that a state submitted for 
consideration before February 27, 2015 (80 FR 2209). The EPA stated 
that it would evaluate whether, with the inclusion of certified 2014 
data, the 3-year design value for 2012-2014 suggests that a change in 
the initial designation would be appropriate for an area. If the EPA 
agreed that a change in the initial designation would be appropriate, 
the EPA would withdraw the designation announced in the January 15, 
2015, action for such area before the effective date and issue another 
designation reflecting the inclusion of 2014 data (80 FR 2209).

II. Purpose and Designation Decisions Based on 2012-2014 Data

    The purposes of this action are to: announce and promulgate initial 
area designations of unclassifiable/attainment for the 2012 
PM2.5 NAAQS for five areas in the state of Georgia, 
including two neighboring counties in the bordering states of Alabama 
and South Carolina that were initially deferred in the EPA's January 
15, 2015, rulemaking; change the designation of one area in Ohio, two 
areas in Pennsylvania, one area shared between Indiana and Kentucky, 
and one area shared between Kentucky and Ohio; and make one minor 
technical amendment to correct an inadvertent error in the designation 
for Allegheny County, Pennsylvania. A discussion of each of these 
actions follows below.

A. Deferred Areas Designated Unclassifiable/Attainment Based on 2012-
2014 Data

    In this action, the EPA is designating five areas as 
unclassifiable/attainment in the state of Georgia, and two neighboring 
counties in the bordering states of Alabama and South Carolina, all of 
which were initially deferred in the EPA's January 15, 2015, 
rulemaking: Augusta (Richmond County and Columbia County in Georgia and 
Aiken County in South Carolina); Columbus (Muscogee County in Georgia 
and Russell County in Alabama); Savannah, Georgia (Chatham County and 
Effingham County); Valdosta, Georgia (Brooks County and Lowndes 
County); and Washington County, Georgia. The EPA's January 15, 2015, 
rulemaking stated that with respect to deferred areas, the EPA would 
use the additional time available as provided under section 
107(d)(1)(B) of the CAA to assess relevant information and subsequently 
promulgate initial designations for the identified areas through 
separate rulemaking action or actions (80 FR 2207).\2\ This final 
action promulgating initial designations fulfills that commitment with 
respect to these five areas in the state of Georgia, and the two 
neighboring counties in the bordering states of Alabama and South 
Carolina. We emphasize that the EPA is not at this time promulgating 
initial designations for the remainder of the areas in the U.S. that 
were deferred in the EPA's January 15, 2015, action.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ See also the technical support documents for the deferred 
Georgia areas in the rulemaking docket, documents numbered EPA-HQ-
OAR-2012-0918-0324 and EPA-HQ-OAR-2012-0918-0156.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In the January 15, 2015, action, the EPA stated that for areas 
deferred due to lack of sufficient data, the agency would evaluate any 
complete, quality-assured, certified air quality monitoring data from 
2014 that a state submitted for consideration before February 27, 2015 
(80 FR 2210). The states of Georgia, Alabama and South Carolina each 
submitted to the EPA complete, quality-assured, and certified air 
quality monitoring data from 2014 for five deferred areas by the 
prescribed deadline. These data provide the EPA with sufficient 
information to promulgate initial designations for these five areas. 
Specifically, the EPA is designating these five areas as 
unclassifiable/attainment because the 2014 air quality data collected 
in these states and submitted to the EPA indicate that the areas are 
attaining the 2012 PM2.5 NAAQS. These designations are 
consistent with the state of Georgia's recommended area designations 
and

[[Page 18537]]

boundaries for the standard, for which the public had an opportunity to 
provide comment and input during the public comment period provided by 
the EPA for the initial area designations process.\3\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ The period for public comment was open from February 15, 
2013, to April 8, 2013 (78 FR 11124 and 78 FR 17915).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

B. Nonattainment Designations Changing to Unclassifiable/Attainment or 
Unclassifiable Based on 2012-2014 Data

    Based on complete, quality-assured, and certified air quality 
monitoring data from 2014 submitted to the EPA by several states prior 
to the February 27, 2015, deadline prescribed in the January 15, 2015, 
rulemaking, the EPA is changing the initial designation status for five 
areas. As noted in the Background section of this preamble, the EPA 
established a process in the January 15, 2015, rulemaking for 
considering 2014 air quality data in the event that such data would 
change the initial designation for an area. In cases where we agree 
that a change in the initial designation would be appropriate, the EPA 
would withdraw the designation announced in the January 15, 2015, 
action for such area before the effective date of April 15, 2015, and 
issue another designation reflecting the inclusion of 2014 data.
    Pursuant to this process, the EPA is changing the initial 
designation of the following five areas for the 2012 PM2.5 
NAAQS: Canton, Ohio; Allentown, Pennsylvania; Johnstown, Pennsylvania; 
Cincinnati-Hamilton, Ohio-Kentucky and Louisville, Kentucky-Indiana. 
The EPA is changing the initial designation of all areas except for 
Louisville from nonattainment to unclassifiable/attainment. The initial 
designation for the Louisville area is changing from nonattainment to 
unclassifiable.
    Procedurally, these changes in initial designations are consistent 
with our early data certification and evaluation process, as described 
earlier and in the January 15, 2015, rulemaking. The states of Indiana, 
Kentucky, Ohio and Pennsylvania submitted complete, quality-assured, 
and certified air quality monitoring data from 2014 to the EPA by the 
prescribed deadline. With the inclusion of the 2014 data that was 
submitted for each monitor, the 3-year design values for 2012--2014 
justify changing the initial designation for these areas with respect 
to the 2012 PM2.5 NAAQS.
    The tables at the end of this final rule (amendments to 40 CFR 
81.301--Alabama, 40 CFR 81.311--Georgia, 40 CFR 81.315--Indiana, 40 CFR 
81.318--Kentucky, 40 CFR 81.336--Ohio, 40 CFR 31.339--Pennsylvania and 
40 CFR 81.341--South Carolina) list all areas for which the EPA is 
changing the initial designation in each impacted state. This action 
does not impact any areas of Indian country.
    1. Additional information about the Cincinnati-Hamilton, OH-KY 
area. The EPA's final technical support document (TSD) for the 
Cincinnati-Hamilton, Ohio-Kentucky area \4\ provided support for the 
EPA's conclusion that all or portions of seven counties should be 
designated as nonattainment based on contribution to two violating 
monitors in Hamilton County, Ohio and one violating monitor in Butler 
County, Ohio. The final TSD notes that the violating monitor site in 
Butler County, Ohio [Air Quality Systems (AQS) ID 39-017-0020] began 
operation in the middle of 2011 as a special purpose monitor, as 
required by a permit for a nearby facility. Because the monitor had 
been in operation longer than the 2-year special purpose monitor 
timeframe (codified in 40 CFR part 58 subchapter C), the monitor 
automatically became comparable to the NAAQS. However, the EPA noted in 
the TSD that the 2015 annual ambient monitoring plan (AAMP) from the 
local agency that operates the site included a request to exempt that 
site from comparison to the 2012 PM2.5 NAAQS given that the 
intent of the monitor is to measure concentrations specifically at the 
facility as part of the facility's operating permit requirements. At 
the time of the initial designation for the Cincinnati-Hamilton, Ohio-
Kentucky area, the EPA had not yet evaluated or responded to the 
exemption request and noted that even in the absence of a violating 
monitor in Butler County, Ohio the area would still be designated as 
nonattainment due to its contribution to two other violating monitors 
in Hamilton County, based on data from 2011-2013.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ Available in the rulemaking docket, document number EPA-HQ-
OAR-2012-0918-0322.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Subsequent to promulgation of the initial designations, the EPA 
agreed with Ohio's request in the 2015 AAMP to exempt AQS site ID 36-
017-0020 in Butler County, Ohio from comparison to the 2012 
PM2.5 NAAQS. To ensure continued protection of public health 
and welfare, the EPA has requested and the state of Ohio has agreed to 
operate a new monitoring site in the area that can be used in the 
future for comparison to the 2012 PM2.5 NAAQS. In addition, 
the availability of complete, quality-assured, and certified 2014 air 
quality data from monitors in the surrounding area shows that the area 
meets the 2012 PM2.5 NAAQS based on 2012-2014 data. 
Therefore, the EPA is changing the designation status of the 
Cincinnati-Hamilton, Ohio-Kentucky area from nonattainment to 
unclassifiable/attainment.
    2. Additional information about the Louisville, KY-IN area. The 
EPA's initial nonattainment designation for the Louisville, Kentucky-
Indiana area was based on ambient air quality data collected from 2011-
2013 at a monitor in Clark County, Indiana showing a violation of the 
2012 PM2.5 NAAQS. In the final TSD for the Louisville 
area,\5\ the EPA noted that air quality data in neighboring Jefferson 
County, Kentucky were invalid due to issues with the collection and 
analysis of PM2.5 filter-based samples. The EPA further 
explained that if Indiana elected to early certify 2014 ambient air 
quality data showing that the monitor in Clark County, Indiana meets 
the 2012 PM2.5 NAAQS for the design value period 2012-2014, 
the EPA would designate the Louisville, Kentucky-Indiana area as 
unclassifiable. Indiana submitted complete, quality-assured, and 
certified 2014 data from an ambient air quality monitor in Clark 
County, Indiana by the prescribed deadline of February 27, 2015, 
showing that the monitor is attaining the NAAQS. Accordingly, in 
conjunction with Indiana's submission of certified 2014 air quality 
data, and for the reasons explained in the January 15, 2015, rulemaking 
and supporting TSD, the EPA is changing the initial designation of the 
Louisville, Kentucky-Indiana area from nonattainment to unclassifiable. 
Since the data in the Jefferson County, Kentucky portion of this area 
are invalid because of significant problems with the collection and 
analysis of PM2.5 filter-based samples, an unclassifiable 
designation is appropriate because the EPA is not able to determine 
whether air quality in the entire Louisville, Kentucky-Indiana area is 
meeting the 2012 PM2.5 NAAQS, or whether the area is 
contributing to a potential violation in the Jefferson County, Kentucky 
portion of the area.

OAR-2012-0918-0322.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

C. Minor Technical Amendment To Correct Inadvertent Error

    This rulemaking also promulgates a minor technical amendment to 
correct an inadvertent error in the designation listing for Allegheny 
County in the state of Pennsylvania. This technical amendment clarifies 
that the entirety of Allegheny County, Pennsylvania is designated 
nonattainment. In the rule

[[Page 18538]]

published on January 15, 2015, Allegheny County is listed twice in the 
designation tables for the 2012 PM2.5 NAAQS in 40 CFR part 
81. In the first entry of the table at 40 CFR 81.339 table (80 FR 
2264), Allegheny County is correctly listed as nonattainment. However, 
the second entry under ``AQCR 197 Southwest Pennsylvania Intrastate,'' 
lists the remainder of Allegheny County as unclassifiable/attainment 
(80 FR 2266). The EPA is amending the designation table for 
Pennsylvania to reflect that the entirety of Allegheny County, 
Pennsylvania, is nonattainment for the 2012 PM2.5 NAAQS, and 
that there is no portion of Allegheny County designated unclassifiable/
attainment for the NAAQS.

III. Environmental Justice Considerations

    The CAA requires the EPA to determine through a designation process 
whether an area meets or does not meet any new or revised national 
primary or secondary ambient air quality standard. This action includes 
initial designation determinations for several areas of the U.S. for 
the 2012 annual PM2.5 NAAQS, and includes revisions to prior 
designation decisions based on the availability of recent air quality 
data showing that areas meet the 2012 annual PM2.5 NAAQS. 
These designations ensure that the public is properly informed about 
the air quality in an area, and that in locations where air quality 
does not meet the NAAQS the relevant state authorities are required to 
initiate appropriate air quality management actions under the CAA to 
ensure that all those residing, working, attending school or otherwise 
present in those areas, regardless of minority and economic status, are 
protected.

IV. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

A. Executive Order 12866: Regulatory Planning and Review and Executive 
Order 13563: Improving Regulation and Regulatory Review

    This action is exempt from review by the Office of Management and 
Budget because it responds to the CAA requirement to promulgate air 
quality designations after promulgation of a new or revised NAAQS.

B. Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA)

    This action does not impose an information collection burden under 
the PRA. This action fulfills the non-discretionary duty for the EPA to 
promulgate air quality designations after promulgation of a new or 
revised NAAQS and does not contain any information collection 
activities.

C. Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA)

    This action is not subject to the RFA. The RFA applies only to 
rules subject to notice and comment rulemaking requirements under the 
Administrative Procedure Act (APA), 5 U.S.C. 553, or any other statute. 
This rule is not subject to the APA but is subject to CAA section 
107(d)(2)(B), which does not require notice and comment rulemaking to 
take this action.

D. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA)

    This action does not contain any unfunded mandate as described in 
UMRA, 2 U.S.C. 1531-1538 and does not significantly or uniquely affect 
small governments. The action implements mandates specifically and 
explicitly set forth in the CAA for the 2012 PM2.5 NAAQS (40 
CFR 50.18). The CAA establishes the process whereby states take primary 
responsibility for developing plans to meet the 2012 PM2.5 
NAAQS.

E. Executive Order 13132: Federalism

    This action does not have federalism implications. It will not have 
a substantial direct effects on the states, on the relationship between 
the national government and the states, or on the distribution of power 
and responsibilities among the various levels of government.

F. Executive Order 13175: Consultation and Coordination With Indian 
Tribal Governments

    This action does not have tribal implications. Areas of Indian 
country are not being designated as part of this action.

G. Executive Order 13045: Protection of Children From Environmental 
Health and Safety Risks

    The EPA interprets Executive Order 13045 as applying to those 
regulatory actions that concern environmental health or safety risks 
that the EPA has reason to believe may disproportionately affect 
children, per the definition of ``covered regulatory action'' in 
section 2-202 of the Executive Order. This action is not subject to 
Executive Order 13045 because it does not establish an environmental 
standard intended to mitigate health or safety risks.

H. Executive Order 13211: Actions That Significantly Affect Energy 
Supply, Distribution or Use

    This action is not subject to Executive Order 13211, because it is 
not a significant regulatory action under Executive Order 12866.

I. National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act (NTTAA)

    This rulemaking does not involve technical standards.

J. Executive Order 12898: Federal Actions To Address Environmental 
Justice in Minority Populations and Low-Income Populations

    The EPA believes the human health or environmental risk addressed 
by this action will not have potential disproportionately high and 
adverse human health or environmental effects on any population, 
including any minority, low-income or indigenous populations because it 
does not affect the level of protection provided to human health or the 
environment. The results of this evaluation of environmental justice 
considerations is contained in section III of this preamble titled, 
``Environmental Justice Considerations.''

K. Congressional Review Act (CRA)

    This action is subject to the CRA, and the EPA will submit a rule 
report to each House of the Congress and to the Comptroller General of 
the U.S. This action is not a ``major rule'' as defined by 5 U.S.C. 
804(2).

L. Judicial Review

    Section 307 (b)(1) of the CAA indicates which Federal Courts of 
Appeal have venue for petitions of review of final actions by the EPA. 
This section provides, in part, that petitions for review must be filed 
in the Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit: (i) When 
the agency action consists of ``nationally applicable regulations 
promulgated, or final actions taken by the Administrator,'' or (ii) 
when such action is locally or regionally applicable, if ``such action 
is based on a determination of nationwide scope or effect and if in 
taking such action the Administrator finds and publishes that such 
action is based on such a determination.''
    This final action designating areas across the U.S. for the 2012 
annual PM2.5 NAAQS is ``nationally applicable'' within the 
meaning of section 307(b)(1). At the core of this final action is the 
EPA's interpretations of the definitions of nonattainment, attainment 
and unclassifiable under section 107(d)(1) of the CAA, and its

[[Page 18539]]

application of those interpretations to areas across the country. For 
the same reasons, the Administrator is also determining that the final 
designations are of nationwide scope and effect for the purposes of 
section 307(b)(1). This is particularly appropriate because, in the 
report on the 1977 Amendments that revised section 307(b)(1) of the 
CAA, Congress noted that the Administrator's determination that an 
action is of ``nationwide scope or effect'' would be appropriate for 
any action that has a scope or effect beyond a single judicial circuit. 
H.R. Rep. No. 95-294 at 323, 324, reprinted in 1977 U.S.C.C.A.N. 1402-
03. Here, the scope and effect of this final action extends to numerous 
judicial circuits since the designations apply to areas across the 
country. In these circumstances, section 307(b)(1) and its legislative 
history calls for the Administrator to find the action to be of 
``nationwide scope or effect'' and for venue to be in the D.C. Circuit.
    Thus, any petitions for review of final designations must be filed 
in the Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit within 60 
days from the date final action is published in the Federal Register.
