ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Part 52

[EPA-R04-OAR-2021-0406; FRL-10991-03-R4]

Air Plan Approval; North Carolina; Bulk Gasoline Plants, 
Terminals Vapor Recovery Systems; Correction

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Final rule; correction.

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

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) published a final 
rule in the Federal Register on August 9, 2023, titled ``Air Plan 
Approval; North Carolina; Bulk Gasoline Plants, Terminals Vapor 
Recovery Systems.'' The document approved revisions to the North 
Carolina State Implementation Plan (SIP) concerning changes to the 
North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality's air regulations 
regarding bulk gasoline terminals and plants, gasoline cargo tanks and 
vapor collection systems, and leak tightness and vapor leak 
requirements. EPA approved those changes pursuant to the Clean Air Act. 
An error in the instructions amending the Code of Federal Regulations 
(CFR) in the document is identified and corrected in this action. This 
correction does not change any final action taken by EPA in the August 
9, 2023, final rule.

DATES: Effective September 8, 2023.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: EPA published a final rule in the Federal 
Register on August 9, 2023 (88 FR 53795), titled ``Air Plan Approval; 
North Carolina; Bulk Gasoline Plants, Terminals Vapor Recovery 
Systems.'' The final rule approved changes to the following regulations 
in North Carolina's SIP: 15A North Carolina Administrative Code, 
Subchapter 02D, Rules .0926, Bulk Gasoline Plants; \1\ .0927, Bulk 
Gasoline Terminals; \2\ .0932, Gasoline Cargo Tanks and Vapor 
Collection Systems; and .2615, Determination of Leak Tightness and 
Vapor Leaks. However, the Federal Register document contained an error 
in the instructions regarding amendments to the table titled ``EPA-
Approved North Carolina Regulations'' found at 40 CFR 52.1770(c)(1). 
See 88 FR 53797. In the instructions, EPA inadvertently referred to the 
table entries to be amended as ``Section .0926,'' ``Section .0927,'' 
``Section .0932,'' and ``Section .2615'' instead of ``Rule .0926,'' 
``Rule .0927,'' ``Rule .0932,'' and ``Rule .2615'' and therefore 
inadvertently sought to replace, rather than revise, those entries. EPA 
is now correcting that error.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ In Paragraph (n) of Rule .0926, North Carolina's Rule 
references Rule 02D .0960 which is not in the SIP. The Division of 
Air Quality (DAQ) withdrew that reference in Paragraph (n) from the 
April 13, 2021, SIP revision.
    \2\ Similar to the changes in Rule 02D .0926(n), Rule 02D 
.0927(k) also references Rule 02D .0960 which is not in the SIP. DAQ 
withdrew that reference in Paragraph (k) from the April 13, 2021, 
SIP revision.
