EPA is approving revisions to the Jefferson County portion of the Kentucky State Implementation Plan (SIP). The revisions were adopted by the Air Pollution Control District of Jefferson County (APCDJC) and submitted to EPA on February 3, 1998; September 22, 1998; February 11, 1999; May 21, 1999; July 20, 1999; and September 22, 2000, by the Commonwealth of Kentucky (Commonwealth) through the Kentucky Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Cabinet (KNREPC). These submittals include miscellaneous rule revisions and the recodification of APCDJC regulations.
EPA is also revising the format of 40 CFR part 52 for materials submitted by the Commonwealth that are incorporated by reference (IBR) into the Jefferson County portion of the Kentucky SIP. This format revision primarily affects the “Identification of plan” section of 40 CFR part 52, as well as the format of the SIP materials that will be available for public inspection at the Office of the Federal Register (OFR), the Air and Radiation Docket and Information Center located in Waterside Mall, Washington, DC, and the Regional Office. The sections of 40 CFR part 52 pertaining to provisions promulgated by EPA or State-submitted materials that are not subject to IBR remain unchanged.
Allison Humphris, Regulatory Development Section, Air Planning Branch, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Region 4, 61 Forsyth Street, SW, Atlanta, Georgia 30303-8960, 404/562-9030, (humphris.allison@epa.gov).
The Commonwealth, through KNREPC, submitted to EPA revisions to the Jefferson County portion of the Kentucky SIP, as adopted by APCDJC, on February 3, 1998, September 22, 1998, February 11, 1999, May 21, 1999, July 20, 1999 and September 22, 2000. The revisions include amendments and modifications of APCDJC regulations to ensure consistency with existing CAA and EPA requirements. The revisions also include a recodification that renumbers APCDJC rule sections to make the SIP less complex and corrects typographical errors, capitalization, spelling, and punctuation. Finally, today's action removes existing APCDJC regulations that do not need to be included in the SIP. Some of these regulations are no longer applicable because they have been moved to other portions of the Kentucky SIP, or because APCDJC submitted negative declarations verifying that there are no existing sources in Jefferson County subject to these rules. The remaining regulations removed were incorrectly approved into the Kentucky SIP (i.e. regulations that EPA does not enforce, or that EPA enforces pursuant to other parts of the Code of Federal Regulations).
On June 21, 2001 (66 FR 33216), EPA published a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPR) to approve the above revisions. That NPR provided for a public comment period ending on July 23, 2001. A detailed description of the SIP revisions and EPA's rationale for approving them was provided in the NPR and will not be restated here.
In this final action, EPA is also revising the format of 40 CFR part 52 for materials submitted by the Commonwealth that are IBR into the Jefferson County portion of the Kentucky SIP. These revisions are consistent with the SIP compilation requirements of section 110(h)(1) of the Clean Air Act (CAA) and the May 22, 1997, (62 FR 27968) Federal Register, in which EPA revised the procedures for IBR federally-approved SIP regulations.
The new SIP compilation for Jefferson County will consist of two parts: the federally-approved portion of regulations and source-specific SIP revisions submitted by the Commonwealth. The table identifying federally-approved regulations is provided with this Federal Register. The table identifying source-specific SIP revisions will be provided at a later date. All of these regulations have been approved by EPA through previous rule making actions in the Federal Register, or are being approved in this action or other actions being published in today's Federal Register. Each part has a table of contents identifying each regulation or each source-specific SIP revision. The table of contents in the compilation corresponds to the table of contents published in 40 CFR part 52 for the Commonwealth. A copy of the full text of the Commonwealth's current compilation will also be maintained at the Office of Federal Register and EPA's Air Docket and Information Center.
By today's final action, EPA is also revising the organization of the “Identification of plan” section. The revised Identification of plan section will still contain five subsections: (a) Purpose and scope, (b) Incorporation by reference, (c) EPA approved regulations, (d) EPA-approved source specific requirements, and (e) EPA-approved nonregulatory provisions, such as transportation control measures, statutory provisions, control strategies, monitoring networks, etc. However, subsection (b) is being amended to include an EPA approval date for Jefferson County, Kentucky regulations, and subsection (c) is being amended to add a table for EPA-approved Jefferson County regulations for Kentucky. All revisions to the applicable SIP become Start Printed Page 53659federally enforceable as of the effective date of the revisions to paragraphs (c), (d) or (e) of the applicable identification of plan found in each subpart of 40 CFR part 52.
EPA is approving revisions to the Jefferson County portion of the Kentucky SIP that were adopted by the APCDJC and submitted to EPA on February 3, 1998; September 22, 1998; February 11, 1999; May 21, 1999; July 20, 1999; and September 22, 2000 by the Commonwealth through KNREPC. EPA is partially approving revisions to APCDJC Regulation 2.04 Construction or Modification of Major Sources in or Impacting upon Non-Attainment Areas (Emission Offset Requirements). As described in detail in the NPR, EPA is taking no action on subsection 3.2 of this regulation regarding applicability of the offset requirement, because this language conflicts with existing EPA policy. EPA finds that Kentucky's submittals are otherwise fully approvable. EPA is also revising the format of 40 CFR part 52 for materials submitted by the Commonwealth that are IBR into the Jefferson County portion of the Kentucky SIP.
The Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. section 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 rule 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. section 804(2).
a. By revising paragraphs (b)(1) and (b)(2).
b. By adding a table to the end of paragraph (c).
(b) * * * (1) Material listed in paragraph (c) of this section with an EPA approval date prior to March 1, 1999, for the Commonwealth of Kentucky (Volume I of the Kentucky State Implementation Plan) and November 23, 2001 for Jefferson County, Kentucky (Volume II of the Kentucky State Implementation Plan) was approved for incorporation by reference by the Director of the Federal Register in accordance with 5 U.S.C. 552(a) and 1 CFR part 51. Material is incorporated as it exists on the date of the approval, and notice of any change in the material will be published in the Federal Register. Entries in paragraph (c) of this section with EPA approval dates after March 1, 1999, for the Commonwealth of Kentucky and November 23, 2001 for Jefferson County, Kentucky will be Start Printed Page 53660incorporated by reference in the next update to the SIP compilation.
(2) EPA Region 4 certifies that the rules/regulations provided by EPA in the SIP Compilation at the addresses in paragraph (b)(3) of this section are an exact duplicate of the officially promulgated State rules/regulations which have been approved as part of the State Implementation Plan as of March 1, 1999, for the Commonwealth of Kentucky (Volume I) and November 23, 2001 for Jefferson County, Kentucky (Volume II).
