40 CFR Part 52

[EPA-R07-OAR-2015-0106 FRL-9926-49-Region 7]


Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans; 
Nebraska; Update to Materials Incorporated by Reference

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Final rule; notice of administrative change.

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

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is updating the 
materials submitted by Nebraska that are incorporated by reference 
(IBR) into the state implementation plan (SIP). EPA is also notifying 
the public of the correction of certain typographical errors within the 
IBR table. The regulations affected by this update have been previously 
submitted by the state agency and approved by EPA. This update affects 
the SIP materials that are available for public inspection at the 
National Archives and Records Administration (NARA), and the Regional 
Office.

DATES: This rule is effective on July 8, 2015.

ADDRESSES: SIP materials which are incorporated by reference into 40 
CFR part 52 are available for inspection at the following locations: 
Environmental Protection Agency, Region 7, 11201 Renner Boulevard, 
Lenexa, Kansas 66219; or at http://www.epa.gov/region07/air/rules/fedapprv.htm; and the National Archives and Records Administration. For 
information on the availability of this material at NARA, call (202) 
741-6030, or go to: www.archives.gov/federal-register/cfr/ibr-locations.html.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    The SIP is a living document which the state revises as necessary 
to address the unique air pollution problems in the state. Therefore, 
EPA from time to time must take action on SIP revisions containing new 
and/or revised regulations to make them part of the SIP. On May 22, 
1997 (62 FR 27968), EPA revised the procedures for incorporating by 
reference Federally-approved SIPs, as a result of consultations between 
EPA and the Office of Federal Register (OFR). The description of the 
revised SIP document, IBR procedures and ``Identification of plan'' 
format are discussed in further detail in the May 22, 1997, Federal 
Register document.
    On February 12, 1999, EPA published a document in the Federal 
Register (64 FR 7091) beginning the new IBR procedure for Nebraska. On 
December 1, 2003, (68 FR 67045) and on July 30, 2009 (74 FR 37939), EPA 
published updates to the IBR material for Nebraska.
    In this document, EPA is publishing an updated set of tables 
listing the regulatory (i.e., IBR) materials in the Nebraska SIP taking 
into account the additions, deletions, and revisions to those materials 
previously submitted by the state agency and approved by EPA. We are 
removing the EPA Headquarters Library from paragraph (b)(3), as IBR 
materials are no longer available at this location. Table (e) revisions 
include:
     Adding text in the explanation column for (6)-(27).

II. EPA Action

    In this action, EPA is doing the following:
    A. Announcing the update to the IBR material as of December 31, 
2014.
    B. Revising the entry in Sec.  52.1420(b) to reflect the update and 
corrections.
    C. Revising certain entries in Sec.  52.1420(e) as described above;
    D. Correcting the date format in the ``State effective date'' or 
``State submittal date'' and ``EPA approval date'' columns in Sec.  
52.1420(c), (d) and (e). Dates are numerical month/day/year without 
additional zeros;
    E. Modifying the Federal Register citation in Sec.  52.1420(c), (d) 
and (e) to reflect the beginning page of the preamble as opposed to the 
page number of the regulatory text.
    EPA has determined that this rule falls under the ``good cause'' 
exemption in section 553(b)(3)(B) of the Administrative Procedures Act 
(APA) which, upon finding ``good cause,'' authorizes agencies to 
dispense with public participation and section 553(d)(3), which allows 
an agency to make a rule effective immediately (thereby avoiding the 
30-day delayed effective date otherwise provided for in the APA). This 
rule simply codifies provisions which are already in effect as a matter 
of law in Federal and approved State programs. Under section 553 of the 
APA, an agency may find good cause where procedures are ``impractical, 
unnecessary, or contrary to the public interest.'' Public comment is 
``unnecessary'' and ``contrary to the public interest'' since the 
codification only reflects existing law. Immediate notice in the CFR 
benefits the public by providing notice of the updated Nebraska SIP 
compilation.

Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

    In this rule, EPA is finalizing regulatory text that includes 
incorporation by reference. In accordance with requirements of 1 CFR 
51.5, EPA is finalizing the incorporation by reference of the Nebraska 
regulations described in the amendments to 40 CFR part 52 set forth 
below. EPA has made, and will continue to make, these documents 
generally available electronically through www.regulations.gov and/or 
in hard copy at the appropriate EPA office (see the ADDRESSES section 
of this preamble for more information).
    Under the CAA, the Administrator is required to approve a SIP 
submission that complies with the provisions of the Act and applicable 
Federal regulations. 42 U.S.C. 7410(k); 40 CFR 52.02(a). Thus, in 
reviewing SIP submissions,

[[Page 38970]]

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'' under the terms 
of Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993) and is 
therefore not subject to review under Executive Orders 12866 and 13563 
(76 FR 3821, January 21, 2011).
     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 practicable and legally permissible methods, under 
Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).
    The SIP is not approved to apply on any Indian reservation land or 
in any other area where EPA or an Indian tribe has demonstrated that a 
tribe has jurisdiction. In those areas of Indian country, the rule does 
not have tribal implications and will not impose substantial direct 
costs on tribal governments or preempt tribal law as specified by 
Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000).
    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).
    EPA has also determined that the provisions of section 307(b)(1) of 
the CAA pertaining to petitions for judicial review are not applicable 
to this action. Prior EPA rulemaking actions for each individual 
component of the Nebraska SIP compilations previously afforded 
interested parties the opportunity to file a petition for judicial 
review in the United States Court of Appeals for the appropriate 
circuit within 60 days of such rulemaking action. Thus, EPA sees no 
need in this action to reopen the 60-day period for filing such 
petitions for judicial review for this ``Identification of plan'' 
reorganization update action for the State of Nebraska.
