[EPA-R02-OAR-2018-0621, FRL-10000-91-Region 2]

Approval of Source-Specific Air Quality Implementation Plans; New 
Jersey

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is approving the 
source-specific revisions to the New Jersey State Implementation Plan 
(SIP) for 8-hour ozone for Paulsboro Refining, Buckeye Port Reading 
Terminal, Buckeye Pennsauken Terminal, and Phillips 66 Company's Linden 
facility. The current source-specific SIP revision addresses the 
Reasonably Available Control Technology for volatile organic compounds 
(VOC) for external floating roof tanks. The intended effect of this 
revision is to address the Federal and state regulatory obligations for 
external floating roof tanks that store VOC with vapor pressure three 
(3) or more pounds per square inch absolute to be equipped with a domed 
roof.

DATES: This final rule is effective on November 12, 2019.

ADDRESSES: The EPA has established a docket for this action under 
Docket ID Number EPA-R02-OAR-2018-0621. All documents in the docket are

I. Background

    The EPA is approving the revision to the New Jersey SIP for 
attainment and maintenance of the 8-hour ozone National Ambient Air 
Quality Standards (NAAQS) for the following major VOC facilities: 
Paulsboro Refining, Buckeye Port Reading Terminal, Buckeye Pennsauken 
Terminal, and Phillips 66 Company's Linden facility. Specifically, 
under New Jersey Administrative Code (NJAC), Title 7, Chapter 27, 
Subchapter 16 (``Control and Prohibition of Air Pollution by Volatile 
Organic Compounds''), Section 2 (``VOC Stationary Storage Tanks''), all 
external floating roof tanks (EFRT) in Range III with vapor pressure 
three (3) or more pounds per square inch absolute (psia) and that were 
in existence on May 18, 2009 must be equipped with a domed roof the 
first time the tank is degassed after May 19, 2009, and by no later 
than May 1, 2020. See NJAC 7:27-16.2(l)(4). However, NJAC 7:27-16.17(a-
q) sets forth procedures and standards for establishing alternative and 
facility-specific VOC control requirements for situations in which, 
among other things, a facility can demonstrate that the control 
requirements pursuant to NJAC 7:27-16.2 are not economically or 
technologically feasible as applied to its operations. The EPA approved 
NJAC 7:27-16.17(a-q) into the New Jersey SIP in 2010 (See 75 FR 45483 
(August 3, 2010)) and is utilizing its functions in this current 
action.
    As was discussed in EPA's October 29, 2018 (83 FR 54300) proposal, 
the EPA reviewed the four facilities' alternative VOC control plans and 
Reasonably Available Control Technology (RACT) analyses submitted with 
New Jersey's SIP revision. The New Jersey Department of Environmental 
Protection (NJDEP) concluded and the RACT analyses concluded that: (1) 
Installing domes on 25 out of the 51 EFRT currently lacking them in 
accordance with the proposed schedule which identifies the doming dates 
for some tanks beyond the 2020 compliance date as authorized under NJAC 
7:27-16.17, is economically and technologically feasible and therefore 
RACT and (2) doming the remaining 26 EFRT currently without domes is 
not

[[Page 54786]]

economically and technologically feasible and therefore not RACT. A 
full summary, including RACT requirements, is included in the technical 
support document (TSD) that is contained in the EPA's docket assigned 
to this Federal Register document.

II. The EPA's Evaluation of New Jersey's Submittals

    The four facilities' source-specific SIP revisions found that the 
doming of the total inventory of EFRT was not RACT, but the doming of 
25 out of 51 EFRT on a delayed proposed schedule was technologically 
and economically feasible pursuant to the New Jersey SIP and found that 
doming the remaining 26 was not economically feasible. The EPA has 
determined that the economic analyses regarding doming identified in 
the source-specific SIP revisions are consistent with the NJDEP's VOC 
RACT regulation and the EPA's rules and guidance. A detailed discussion 
of the doming requirements, schedules and EPA's evaluation can be found 
in the October 29, 2018 proposal and will not be restated here. See 83 
FR 54300 (October 29, 2018).

III. Comments Received in Response to EPA's Proposed Action

    In response to EPA's October 29, 2018 proposed approval of the 
source-specific revisions to the New Jersey State Implementation Plan 
(SIP) for 8-hour ozone for Paulsboro Refining, Buckeye Port Reading 
Terminal, Buckeye Pennsauken Terminal, and Phillips 66 Company's Linden 
facility, the EPA received public comments from five Commenters during 
the 30-day public comment period. After reviewing the comments, the EPA 
has determined that two Commenters provided feedback that is outside 
the scope of our proposed action or fails to identify any material 
issue necessitating a response. The comments do not raise issues 
relevant to the EPA's proposed action, therefore, the EPA will not 
provide a specific response to these comments. The EPA did, however, 
receive comments from three Commenters that are relevant and 
significant to the EPA's proposed action, warranting a response from 
the EPA. The relevant comments are summarized below and followed by an 
EPA response. All comments submitted may be viewed under Docket ID 
Number EPA-R02-OAR-2018-0621 on the http://www.regulations.gov website.
    Comment: According to the Paulsboro RACT analysis the cost estimate 
to dome all 21 of the facility's ERFTs is in the range of $19,000-
149,000 per ton VOC reduced. The lower limit of $19,000 is within the 
State's definition of what is economically feasible. The EPA should 
reverse the NJDEP's decision to allow this facility not to dome eleven 
of its 21 EFRT, furthermore, the EFRT should be domed six months ahead 
of what is expected under the source-specific SIP revision.
    Response: The EPA disagrees that the cost of doming Paulsboro's 
total inventory of 21 ERFT is economically feasible and that the 
timeline for completing the doming requirement should be six months 
sooner than in the source-specific SIP revision. EPA disagrees $19,000 
is within New Jersey's range of economically feasible RACT control. The 
commenter did not provide any documentation to support the statement 
that the lower limit of $19,000 is within the State's definition of 
what is economically feasible. On the contrary, New Jersey's SIP 
revision specifically states the Paulsboro RACT analysis estimates the 
cost to dome all 21 of the facility's ERFTs is in the range of $19,000-
149,000 per ton VOC reduced, and that this is not cost-effective for 
meeting RACT. Therefore, as authorized in the New Jersey SIP, the 
facility developed a cost-effective alternative plan to reduce VOC 
emissions (i.e., the alternative VOC control plan).
    As for doming considered to be RACT, the EPA recognizes the doming 
provision in NJAC 7:27-16.2 is intended to cover situations in which 
doming an EFRT is RACT (that is, when implementation of the action is 
both economically and technologically feasible) and that facilities are 
allowed, under NJAC 7:27-16.17 to submit an alternative VOC control 
plan where implementation of the prescribed RACT is demonstrated by the 
facilities to be economically or technologically infeasible as applied 
to their specific operations. This alternative VOC control plan 
provision is intended to cover case-by-case circumstances for 
facilities to explore cost effective options for VOC emission reduction 
techniques. The EPA also takes notice of the fact that the facilities' 
calculated lower limit of $19,000 per ton VOC emission reduced, is well 
above what EPA has historically defined as economically feasible (i.e., 
$160-1300).\1\ Furthermore, contrary to the statement by the comment, 
the 2007 New Jersey RACT Plan (i.e., State RACT rules) approved by the 
EPA and discussed in the EPA's October 29, 2018 (83 FR 54300) proposal, 
do not include a specific dollar amount. Thus, the four facilities 
submitted an alternative VOC control plan and NJDEP has approved, 
pursuant to the New Jersey ozone SIP, which is the subject of this 
rulemaking.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ EPA guidance in 1994 indicated States should consider in 
their RACT determinations technologies that achieve 30-50 percent 
reduction within a cost range of $160-1300 per ton of NOX 
emissions reduced. See 70 FR 71652.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Paulsboro, and the other facilities under this rulemaking, 
considered the Federal and state RACT requirements, determining that 
the cost of doming the total inventory of EFRT by the compliance 
deadline is beyond the range of what traditionally EPA and the State 
would consider RACT. The intent of the alternative VOC control plan, as 
authorized under NJAC 7:27-16.17, is to create an alternative to the 
requirement to dome the facility's total inventory of EFRT that are 
subject to the doming requirement under NJAC 7:27-16.2 (``doming 
requirement''), because the facility has demonstrated that doming the 
tanks by the compliance date is not economically feasible under the 
State's RACT Plan. Under the alternative VOC control plan, the facility 
will follow an alternative implementation schedule (``Alternative 
Implementation Schedule'') in complying with the doming requirement on 
the identified tanks, as authorized under NJAC 7:27-16.17(d)(2)(x). 
Under NJAC 7:27-16.2(p)(2)(ii), the facility can submit a facility-wide 
VOC control plan with an implementation schedule that, among other 
requirements, ``shall be consistent with the facility's schedule for 
tank removal from service for normal inspection and maintenance.'' The 
facility's Alternative Implementation Schedule, as set forth in its 
alternative VOC control plan, is based on the facility's 15-20-year 
maintenance schedule for removing tanks from service for inspection and 
maintenance; the Alternative Implementation Schedule will allow the 
facility to achieve compliance in a cost reasonable manner. See 
www.regulations.gov EPA-R02-OAR-2018-0621, Final TSD Paulsboro Buckeye 
Phillips. According to the facility's RACT analysis cost table, (see 
www.regulations.gov EPA-R02-OAR-2018-0621, Paulsboro SIP revision EFRT 
domes 12 10 2015, Enclosure 7, Attachment 1), doming the set of tanks 
that are designated for compliance by the 2020 compliance date is 
economically feasible for those tanks because the annualized costs of 
installation and maintenance of the domes are within the State's RACT 
Plan considering the facility's business model. By contrast, the 
annualized costs of installation and maintenance of the domes for tanks 
that are following the Alternative Implementation Schedule to comply 
after the default 2020 compliance date are beyond RACT

[[Page 54787]]

because it is not economically feasible to dome them by compliance 
date. Doming these tanks would be too costly and unreasonable to dome 
tanks that are not out-of-service. According to the facility's RACT 
analysis cost table, generally, the group of tanks following the 
Alternative Implementation Schedule has higher total costs (i.e., 
maintenance, administrative, and annualized) than the tanks being domed 
by the default compliance date, a difference of approximately $119,000 
more. The facility's costs for doming are based on the EPA Control Cost 
Manual (see https://www.epa.gov/economic-and-cost-analysis-air-pollution-regulations/cost-reports-and-guidance-air-pollution) using a 
7% interest over a 20-year useful life for each dome. The proposed 
Alternative Implementation Schedule in the alternative VOC control plan 
allows for the facility to spread the cost of installing and 
maintaining the domes over a more reasonable timeline; this phased 
approach allows the facility to minimize interference with normal 
operation while achieving sufficient VOC emission reductions to support 
the State's Ozone NAAQS attainment goals.
    With respect to the comment to require doming on the EFRT to be 
completed six months ahead of the proposed dates, EPA believes this is 
unwarranted. Installing the domes on a schedule earlier than what the 
facilities provided in their analyses is not economically feasible and 
therefore not RACT. Ideally, domes should be installed after the tank 
is completely empty and out of service with ideal environmental weather 
conditions, which makes timing important. The schedules outlined in the 
facilities' alternative VOC control plans allow them flexibility to 
schedule installation of the domes during ideal conditions and allow 
for continuation of normal operating procedures. New Jersey has 
exercised its authority under NJAC 7:27-16.17(d) and has considered the 
facilities' proposed schedule for completion as a criterion in 
determining that the alternative control plans are sufficient.
    Comment: The EPA cannot approve the EFRT dome deadline extensions 
as they exceed the regulatory and statutory mandate that RACT must be 
implemented ``as expeditiously as practicable but no later than 3 
years.'' Title 40 CFR 51.1112(a)(3) requires ``The state shall provide 
for implementation of RACT as expeditiously as practicable but no later 
than January 1 of the 5th year after the effective date of designation 
for the 2008 ozone NAAQS.''
    Response: The current action is approval of a source-specific SIP, 
not the overall State RACT SIP. Given that, the overall State 2008 RACT 
effective date is March 12, 2008, and the EPA approved the overall 
State's RACT SIP revision to address the 2008 8-hour ozone NAAQS on May 
15, 2009, within the statutory 24-month deadline for implementing RACT 
40 CFR 51.1112(a)(3) applies to the overall implementation of the 
State's RACT SIP. RACT compliance for a source-specific RACT 
determination submitted as a SIP revision, as we have in this rule 
making, is largely based on when the State submits and EPA acts on the 
SIP revision.
    As stated in the previous response, installing the domes on a 
schedule earlier than what the facilities provided in their analyses is 
not economically feasible and therefore not RACT. Therefore, 
installation of the domes by 2017 for the 2008 Ozone NAAQS and earlier 
for the 1997 Ozone NAAQS, as the commenter suggests, would not be RACT 
because it is not economically feasible.
    Comment: The EPA cannot approve this source-specific SIP revision 
because New Jersey failed to provide an anti-backsliding analysis as 
required under sections 110 and 172 of the CAA. As the Subchapter 16 is 
approved into the ozone SIP and requires all EFRT in Range III to be 
domed by no later than 2020, any exemption to this rule must consider 
anti-backsliding. Furthermore, New Jersey is part of both the New York 
non-attainment area and the ozone transport area where VOCs from tanks 
like these can impede area's ability to attain the ozone standard.
    Response: The EPA recognizes the applicability of section 110(l) of 
the CAA for source-specific SIP revisions, but in this instance, EPA 
disagrees there is a cause for disapproval. Section 110(l) of the CAA 
prohibits the EPA from approving revisions to a SIP if the revision 
would interfere with any applicable requirement concerning attainment 
and reasonable further progress, or any other requirement of the CAA. 
In a circumstance such as that presented here, where approval of the 
RACT alternative (i.e., the source-specific determination) would impact 
air quality in a nonattainment area that is required to have an 
attainment demonstration, any attainment demonstration for the area 
must account for the source-specific RACT, and may do so: (1) By 
showing that the attainment demonstration, in fact, accounts for the 
source-specific RACT alternative; or (2) where the attainment 
demonstration has not yet been approved, by showing (e.g., by 
presenting information to be included in a forthcoming attainment 
demonstration) that the attainment demonstration will be able to 
properly account for emissions attributable to the proposed RACT 
alternative. For example, the information could show that the 
forthcoming attainment demonstration will not rely on emission 
reductions for the source category as a whole, or that it will reduce 
the emissions decreases credited to the source category by the 
estimated amount of increases associated with source-specific RACT 
determinations.
    The EPA has determined that this SIP revision does not interfere 
with any applicable New Jersey ozone plan concerning attainment and 
reasonable further progress of the NAAQS, or any applicable requirement 
of the CAA. The ``applicable New Jersey ozone plan concerning 
attainment and reasonable further progress'' for purposes of this SIP 
revision is New Jersey's attainment demonstration SIP for the 2008 
ozone standard. Two of the four facilities addressed in this SIP 
revision are located in the northern portion of the State as part of 
the New York-Northern New Jersey-Long Island, NY-NJ-CT (also referred 
to as the New York Metropolitan Area or NYMA) moderate nonattainment 
area. The comment is correct that Subchapter 16 (NJAC 7:27-16.2) is 
approved into the New Jersey ozone SIP and the requirement for all EFRT 
in Range III to be domed by 2020 is part of the SIP. While projected 
emission controls in the New Jersey 2008 ozone attainment modeling \2\ 
included ozone projections to 2017 for bulk petroleum storage 
degassing, cleaning, landing, and slotted guide poles, the emission 
controls for placing domes on EFRT were not part of the modeling and no 
VOC emission reduction credits (neither for all of the EFRT being domed 
nor a percentage of them being domed) were relied upon for attainment 
nor reasonable further progress of the ozone NAAQS. The ozone 
attainment date for 1997 and 2008 ozone NAAQS for the NYMA are June 15, 
2010 and June 20, 2018, respectively, but the doming requirement under 
NJAC 7:27-16 has a future compliance date that is beyond this current 
action, and beyond the attainment date for both the 1997 and 2008 ozone 
NAAQS. New Jersey

[[Page 54788]]

recognized that (1) requiring doming of EFRT is an aggressive VOC 
emission reduction requirement, and (2) when promulgating these 
aggressive VOC emission reduction requirements to require doming of 
EFRT, individual facilities may demonstrate, consistent with the SIP 
approved provisions of NJAC 7:27-16.2 and 16.17, that these 
requirements are not technologically and economically feasible or RACT 
as applied to their operations, and therefore, New Jersey did not rely 
on the maximum benefit of all, nor a percentage of the EFRT being domed 
in the applicable New Jersey ozone attainment plan. There can be no 
threat of backsliding of the NAAQS for these two source-specific SIP 
revisions.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Maintenance of the 75 ppb and 85 ppb Ozone National Ambient Air 
Quality Standards, Ozone Attainment Demonstrations for the Northern 
New Jersey-New York-Connecticut Nonattainment Area, https://www.state.nj.us/dep/baqp/ozoneppb.html.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The other two facilities addressed in this revision are located in 
the southern area of the State, Paulsboro and Pennsauken, and part of 
the Philadelphia-Wilmington-Atlantic City (PA-NJ-MD-DE) ozone 
nonattainment area that is classified as marginal nonattainment for 
both the 2008 and 2015 ozone NAAQS so the State has no requirement to 
conduct attainment modeling nor to submit an attainment or reasonable 
further progress plan. Therefore, a comparison of the VOC emissions 
from the combined 12 EFRT (11 EFRT in Paulsboro and 1 EFRT in 
Pennsauken) not being domed to the EPA approved 2011 VOC emissions 
(See, 82 FR 44099 (September 21, 2017)) for the New Jersey portion of 
Philadelphia-Wilmington-Atlantic City ozone nonattainment area to show 
that the difference in emissions between the presumptive RACT and 
source-specific RACT is so small that it should not interfere with 
attainment or maintenance of the NAAQS or any other applicable 
requirement. The combined VOC emissions by not doming the 12 EFRT is 
approximately 14.98 tons per year (see the TSD for this action) or 
0.041 tons per day compared to the total VOC emissions for the PA-NJ-
MD-DE area of 199.09 tons per day which correlates to approximately 
0.021 percentage change in VOC emissions. Based on this minimal VOC 
emissions change, EPA has determined there to be no threat of 
backsliding of the NAAQS for these two source-specific SIP revisions.
    EPA also notes that New Jersey will have to account for the air 
quality benefits achieved from the doming of any EFRT in any future 
applicable ozone attainment or reasonable further progress plans where 
the planning milestones (i.e., attainment date or projection year 
emissions inventory) are beyond the applicable compliance date for 
doming the EFRT. Specifically, New Jersey will have to account for the 
doming of any EFRT in the ozone attainment plan for the 2008 serious 
nonattainment NYMA area which is due August 3, 2020 and must show 
attainment by July 20, 2021. See 84 FR 44238, August 23, 2019.
    Lastly, section 172(e) of the CAA provides that when the 
Administrator relaxes a NAAQS, the EPA must ensure that all areas which 
have not attained that NAAQS maintain ``controls which are no less 
stringent than the controls applicable to areas designated 
nonattainment before such relaxation.'' Although section 172(e) has 
never applied directly to EPA's ozone standards, because those ozone 
standards have only increased in stringency over time, the EPA has 
applied the principles of section 172(e) to develop anti-backsliding 
regulations following revocation of the 1-hour and 1997 ozone 
standards. For this action, the procedure for approving alternatives 
pursuant to NJAC 7:27-16.2 and 16.17 has already been approved by the 
EPA (See, 75 FR 45483 (August 3, 2010)) and is in the New Jersey SIP, 
so for the purposes of 172(e) the EPA is not altering the RACT 
provision and is executing it as approved.

IV. Summary of EPA's Final Action

    The NJDEP determined that the four facilities discussed above could 
avoid doming 26 EFRT, because requiring the four facilities' total 
inventory of 51 EFRT to be domed by the default compliance date under 
NJAC 7:27-16 would be economically infeasible and not RACT. 
Specifically, the EPA is approving the NJDEP SIP revisions for 8-hour 
ozone to allow the Paulsboro facility not to dome eleven EFRT; the 
Buckeye facilities not to dome five EFRT; and the Phillips 66 Company 
facility not to dome ten EFRT. The EPA is also approving the 
requirement to dome the remaining 25 EFRT in accordance with the 
schedule set out in the facilities' alternative control plan. This SIP 
revision would require the facilities to dome eight of the 25 EFRT on a 
delayed timeline due to the economic infeasibility of doming the tanks 
by 2020 (and convert one EFRT to an internal floating roof tank).
    As stated in EPA's October 29, 2018 proposal, NJAC 7:27-16.17 
establishes procedures and standards for alternative, facility-specific 
VOC control requirements. Under NJAC 7:27-16.17(l)(2), a source seeking 
approval for facility-specific controls must modify its Title V 
operating permit to incorporate the approved alternative control plan 
and comply with the plan's requirements in order to comply with NJAC 
7:27-16.

V. Incorporation by Reference

    In this document, EPA is finalizing regulatory text that includes 
incorporation by reference. In accordance with requirements of 1 CFR 
51.5, the EPA is finalizing the incorporation by reference of the 
provisions described above in Section IV. Final Action. EPA has made, 
and will continue to make, these materials generally available through 
http://www.regulations.gov and at the EPA Region 2 Office (please 
contact the person identified in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT 
section of this preamble for more information). Therefore, these 
materials have been approved by EPA for inclusion in the State 
Implementation Plan, have been incorporated by reference by EPA into 
that plan, are fully federally enforceable under sections 110 and 113 
of the Clean Air Act as of the effective date of the final rulemaking 
of EPA's approval, and will be incorporated by reference in the next 
update to the SIP compilation. See 62 FR 27968 (May 22, 1997).

VI. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

    Under the CAA, the Administrator is required to approve a SIP 
submission that complies with the provisions of the CAA and applicable 
Federal regulations. 42 U.S.C. 7410(k); 40 CFR 52.02(a). Thus, in 
reviewing SIP submissions, the EPA's role is to approve state choices, 
provided 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) and 13563 (76 FR 3821, January 21, 
2011);
     is not an Executive Order 13771 (82 FR 9339, February 2, 
2017) regulatory action because SIP approvals are exempted under 
Executive Order 12866;
     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

[[Page 54789]]

in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (Public Law 104-4);
     does not have federalism implications as specified in 
Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 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 the 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, because the SIP is not approved to 
apply in Indian country located in the state, and the EPA notes that it 
will not impose substantial direct costs on tribal governments or 
preempt tribal law. Thus, Executive Order 13175 does not apply to this 
action.
    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 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 December 10, 2019. 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. This action may not be challenged later in 
proceedings to enforce its requirements. (See section 307(b)(2).)
