Specifically, the Coast Guard will enforce this safety zone between Mile Marker 296.1 to Mile Marker 296.7 on all waters of the Chicago Sanitary and Ship Canal. Enforcement will occur from 9 a.m. to 12 noon and from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. on each day from November 4 through November 8, 2013, and from 7 a.m. until 11 a.m. and from 1 p.m. until 5 p.m. on November 13, 2013. This enforcement action is necessary because the Captain of the Port, Lake Michigan has determined that the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers dispersal barriers performance testing and the Department of Natural Resources netting and electro-fishing operation poses risks to life and property. Because of these risks, it is necessary to control vessel movement during the operations to prevent injury and property loss. In accordance with the general regulations in § 165.23 of this part, entry into, transiting, mooring, laying up or anchoring within the enforced area of this safety zone by any person or vessel is prohibited unless authorized by the Captain of the Port, Lake Michigan, or his or her designated representative. Vessels that wish to transit through the safety zone may request permission from the Captain of the Port, Lake Michigan. Requests must be made in advance and approved by the Captain of the Port before transits will be authorized. Approvals will be granted on a case by case basis. The Captain of the Port may be contacted via U.S. Coast Guard Sector Lake Michigan on VHF channel 16. This notice is issued under authority of 33 CFR 165.930 and 5 U.S.C. 552(a). In addition to this notice in the Federal Register, the Captain of the Port, Lake Michigan, will also provide notice through other means, which may include, but are not limited to, Broadcast Notice to Mariners, Local Notice to Mariners, local news media, distribution in leaflet form, and onscene oral notice. Additionally, the Captain of the Port, Lake Michigan, may notify representatives from the maritime industry through telephonic and email notifications. Dated: October 23, 2013. M.W. Sibley, Captain, U.S. Coast Guard, Captain of the Port, Lake Michigan.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Throughout this document whenever SUMMARY: PO 00000 Frm 00007 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 On June 11, 2013, at 78 FR 34966, EPA proposed to remove the Stage II requirements under NR 420.045 of the Wisconsin Administrative Code from the state’s Federally-approved SIP. The revision included copies of 2011 Wisconsin Act 196 enacted on April 2, 2012, authorizing the termination of Stage II requirements in Wisconsin; a summary of MOVES2010b modeling results and Wisconsin specific calculations based on EPA guidance used to calculate program benefits and demonstrate widespread use of onboard refueling vapor recovery systems in southeast Wisconsin; and a demonstration under section 110(l) of the CAA that includes offset emission credits. II. What comments did we receive on the proposed SIP revision? EPA provided a 30 day review and comment period on the proposed action. The comment period closed on July 11, 2013. EPA received no adverse comments. EPA did however, receive one comment supporting EPA’s approval of this revision. The commenter also requested that EPA ‘‘confirm and identify in the final approval whether Wisconsin intended to voluntarily use more emissions credits than necessary, and if so, identify the fact that the quantity of emission credits that were necessary to offset the shortfall were only those that were equal to the shortfall’’. EPA notes that nothing in the state’s submittal or the proposal was intended to suggest that Wisconsin was using more emissions credits than were necessary to offset the stated shortfall identified by Wisconsin. The column entitled ‘‘Difference (Shortfall-Credit),’’ presented in Table 3 of the proposal, highlights the amount of equivalent VOC emissions credits that remain available to Wisconsin after fully addressing the interim emissions shortfall from the removal of the Stage II program in southeast Wisconsin. They are intended to demonstrate that the available equivalent VOC emissions credits identified by the state are more than adequate to cover the interim Stage II shortfall. E:\FR\FM\04NOR1.SGM 04NOR1 65876 Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 213 / Monday, November 4, 2013 / Rules and Regulations III. What action is EPA taking? EPA is approving the revision to the Wisconsin ozone SIP submitted on November 12, 2012, concerning the Stage II program in southeast Wisconsin. EPA finds that the revision meets all applicable requirements and will not interfere with reasonable further progress or attainment of any of the national ambient air quality standards. wreier-aviles on DSK5TPTVN1PROD with RULES IV. 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, 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, 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 EPA with the discretionary authority to address, as appropriate, disproportionate human health or environmental effects, using VerDate Mar<15>2010 15:27 Nov 01, 2013 Jkt 232001 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 January 3, 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 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).)

Boulevard, Chicago, Illinois 60604, (312) 886-6061,
On June 11, 2013, at 78 FR 34966, EPA proposed to remove the Stage
II requirements under NR 420.045 of the Wisconsin Administrative Code
from the state's Federally-approved SIP. The revision included copies
of 2011 Wisconsin Act 196 enacted on April 2, 2012, authorizing the
termination of Stage II requirements in Wisconsin; a summary of
MOVES2010b modeling results and Wisconsin specific calculations based
on EPA guidance used to calculate program benefits and demonstrate
widespread use of onboard refueling vapor recovery systems in southeast
Wisconsin; and a demonstration under section 110(l) of the CAA that
includes offset emission credits.
EPA provided a 30 day review and comment period on the proposed
action. The comment period closed on July 11, 2013. EPA received no
adverse comments. EPA did however, receive one comment supporting EPA's
approval of this revision. The commenter also requested that EPA
``confirm and identify in the final approval whether Wisconsin intended
to voluntarily use more emissions credits than necessary, and if so,
identify the fact that the quantity of emission credits that were
necessary to offset the shortfall were only those that were equal to
the shortfall''. EPA notes that nothing in the state's submittal or the
proposal was intended to suggest that Wisconsin was using more
emissions credits than were necessary to offset the stated shortfall
identified by Wisconsin. The column entitled ``Difference (Shortfall-

requirements and will not interfere with reasonable further progress or
attainment of any of the national ambient air quality standards.
