Ohio; Ohio PM2.5 NSR

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)

ACTION: Direct final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is approving, under 
the Clean Air Act (CAA), revisions to Ohio's state implementation plan 
(SIP) as requested by the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency (OEPA) 
on June 19, 2014. The revisions to Ohio's SIP implement certain EPA 
regulations for particulate matter smaller than 2.5 micrometers 
(PM2.5) by establishing definitions related to 
PM2.5, defining PM2.5 increment levels, and 
setting PM2.5 class 1 variances. The revisions also 
incorporate changes made to definitions clarifying terminology 
consistent with Federal regulations, adding Federal land manager 
notification requirements, and incorporating minor organizational or 
typographical changes.

DATES: This direct final rule will be effective August 24, 2015, unless 
EPA receives adverse comments by July 27, 2015. If adverse comments are 
received, EPA will publish a timely withdrawal of the direct final rule 
in the Federal Register informing the public that the rule will not 
take effect.

    I. Background
    II. What action is EPA taking?
    III. Incorporation by Reference
    IV. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

I. Background

    On June 19, 2014, OEPA submitted to EPA revisions to Ohio 
Administrative Code (OAC) chapter 3745-31. Revisions were made to the 
following rules: 3745-31-01 through 3745-31-04, OAC 3745-31-06 through 
3745-31-23, 3745-31-25, 3745-31-26, 3745-31-29 and 3745-31-32. The 
changes made were to implement the PM2.5 National Ambient 
Air Quality Standards (NAAQS), PM2.5 New Source Review (NSR) 
program and regulations related to nitrogen oxides (NOX) as 
a precursor to ozone; include definitions for ``PM2.5,'' 
``PM2.5 direct emissions,'' ``PM2.5 emissions,'' 
``PM2.5 precursor,'' ``emergency,'' ``emergency engine,'' 
``permanent,'' ``publicly owned treatment works,'' ``quantifiable,'' 
``semi-public disposal system,'' and ``surplus''; include Federal land 
manager notification requirements; clarification of nonattainment 
provisions; and minor clarification and organizational revisions. In a 
letter dated March 26, 2015, OEPA requested that we not take action on 
OAC 3745-31-01(QQQQ) for the definition of ``permanent''; OAC 3745-31-
01(JJJJJ) for the definition of ``quantifiable''; OAC

[[Page 36478]]

3745-31-01(BBBBBB) for the definition of ``surplus''; OAC 3745-31-
22(A)(3)(b) and OAC 3745-31-26(D) regarding PM2.5 
interpollutant offset ratios; OAC 3745-31-24(F)(1)(a) and OAC 3745-31-
27(A)(1)(b) regarding the establishment of offset emission reductions.

II. What action is EPA taking?

    EPA is partially approving the SIP revision submittal. EPA 
previously approved a portion of the submittal, 79 FR 64119 (October 
28, 2014), and is approving the remainder of the submittal, with the 
exceptions detailed in Ohio's March 26, 2015, and April 17, 2015, 
letters, in this action. Ohio's SIP revisions comply with regulations 
EPA enacted to address the PM2.5 NAAQS. These revisions 
implement the NSR and prevention of significant deterioration (PSD) 
program, as required by EPA's regulations. The revisions also implement 
minor clarification and organizational revisions not directly related 
to PM2.5.
    EPA is approving the following rules: portions of OAC 3745-31-01; 
OAC 3745-31-02; OAC 3745-31-04; OAC 3745-31-06; OAC 3745-31-07; OAC 
3745-31-08; OAC 3745-31-09; OAC 3745-31-10; OAC 3745-31-11; OAC 3745-
31-12; OAC 3745-31-14; OAC 3745-31-15; OAC 3745-31-17; OAC 3745-31-18; 
OAC 3745-31-19; OAC 3745-31-20; OAC 3745-31-21; OAC 3745-31-22, except 
for paragraph (A)(3)(b); OAC 3745-31-23, excluding the 1-hour 
NO2 SIL; OAC 3745-31-24, except for paragraph (F); OAC 3745-
31-25; OAC 3745-31-26, except for paragraph (D); OAC 3745-31-27, except 
for paragraph (A)(1)(b); OAC 3745-31-29; and OAC 3745-31-32.

 A. Nonattainment NSR Related Actions

    On April 25, 2007, EPA published the ``Clean Air Fine Particle 
Implementation Rule'' (72 FR 20586) as a final rule in the Federal 
Register. This 2007 action provides rules and guidance for the CAA 
requirements for SIPs to implement the 1997 fine particle NAAQS. As 
part of this rulemaking, EPA promulgated 40 CFR part 51, subpart Z 
``Provisions for Implementation of PM2.5 National Ambient 
Air Quality Standards''. 40 CFR part 51, subpart Z outlines the 
requirements that a state SIP must meet to implement and comply with 
the PM2.5 NAAQS. The final rule became effective on May 29, 
2007.
    On May 16, 2008, EPA published the ``Implementation of the New 
Source Review (NSR) Program for Particulate Matter Less than 2.5 
Micrometers (PM2.5)'' (73 FR 28321) as a final rule in the 
Federal Register. These 2008 regulations establish the PM2.5 
NSR program. The PM2.5 NSR program includes provisions 
establishing the PM2.5 major source threshold, significant 
emissions rate, and applicability of NSR to PM2.5 
precursors. This final rule became effective on July 15, 2008.
    OEPA's revision to 3745-31-19 updates the table for Class I 
variances. The update includes adding an arithmetic mean of 4 
micrograms per cubic meter ([mu]g/m\3\) and a twenty-four-hour maximum 
of 9 [mu]g/m\3\ for PM2.5. The revision also updates the 
twenty-four-hour maximum for PM10 from 20 [mu]g/m\3\ to 30 
[mu]g/m\3\. These revisions are consistent with 40 CFR 52.21(p)(5).
    On December 31, 2002, EPA published final rule changes to the PSD 
and NSR programs (67 FR 80186) (2002 NSR Reform Rules), and on November 
7, 2003, EPA published a notice of final action on the reconsideration 
of the December 31, 2002, final rule changes (68 FR 63021). After the 
2002 NSR Reform Rules were finalized and effective (March 3, 2003), 
various petitioners challenged various aspects of the rules, along with 
portions of EPA's 1980 PSD and NNSR Rules (45 FR 5276, August 7, 1980). 
On June 24, 2005, the United States Circuit Court of Appeals for the DC 
Circuit Court issued a decision on the challenges to the 2002 NSR 
Reform Rules. See New York v. United States, 413 F.3d 3 (D.C. Cir. 
2005). In summary, the DC Circuit Court vacated portions of the 2002 
NSR Reform Rules pertaining to ``clean units'' and ``pollution control 
projects'' (PCPs), remanded a portion of the ``reasonable possibility'' 
provisions (40 CFR 52.21(r)(6) and 40 CFR 51.166(r)(6)), and either 
upheld or did not comment on the other provisions included as part of 
the 2002 NSR Reform Rules. On June 13, 2007 (72 FR 32526), EPA took 
final action to revise the 2002 NSR Reform Rules to remove from Federal 
law all provisions pertaining to clean units and the PCP exemption that 
were vacated by the DC Circuit Court.
    Additionally, in New York v. United States, the DC Circuit remanded 
EPA's ``reasonable possibility'' provision, which identifies for 
sources and reviewing authorities the circumstances under which a major 
stationary source undergoing a modification that does not trigger major 
NSR must keep records. On December 21, 2007, EPA addressed the Court's 
remand, and took final action to establish that a ``reasonable 
possibility'' applies where source emissions equal or exceed 50 percent 
of the CAA NSR significance levels for any pollutant (72 FR 72607). See 
40 CFR 52.21(r)(b).
    OEPA's revision to 3745-31-22 consists of the inclusion of 
PM2.5 interprecursor offsetting into paragraph (A)(3)(b), 
the removal of paragraphs (A)(3)(e) and (A)(3)(f), and the addition 
paragraph (A)(5) relating to reasonable further progress. The March 26, 
2015, clarification letter submitted by OEPA withdraws paragraph 
(A)(3)(b) from the submittal. The removal of paragraphs (A)(3)(e) and 
(f) are consistent with the 2002 NSR Reform Rules.
    OEPA's revision to 3745-31-23 updates the table of significance 
levels in paragraph (A) of this rule by adding PM2.5 values 
of 0.3 [mu]g/m\3\ as the annual significance level and 1.2 [mu]g/m\3\ 
as the significance level with a 24-hour averaging time. 
PM2.5 has also been added to list of pollutants for which an 
air quality impact must be determined in paragraph (C)(1) of this rule. 
OEPA has also updated the table to remove total suspended particulate 
and its significance values. The value for NOX with a one-
hour averaging time was also added as 10 [mu]g/m\3\. OEPA sent a 
clarification letter on March 26, 2015, which excludes the one-hour 
NOX significance level from inclusion into the SIP. The 
changes made to this rule are consistent with 40 CFR 51.165(b)(2).
    OEPA's revision to 3745-31-24 include changes to paragraph (B), 
baseline for determining credit for emission offsets, and paragraph 
(F),operating hours and stationary source shut down. OEPA's March 26, 
2015 and April 17, 2015, clarification letters withdraw the revisions 
from 3745-31-24(F) from inclusion from the SIP. The changes made to 
3745-31-24(B) are consistent with the language in 40 CFR 56.165(a)(3).
    OEPA's revision to 3745-31-25, location of offsetting emissions for 
nonattainment areas, incorporates the conditions listed in 40 CFR part 
51, appendix S, section IV.D. OEPA's revision to 3745-31-26 adds offset 
ratio requirement for nonattainment areas. The revisions are consistent 
with language in 40 CFR part 51, appendix S. OEPA's March 26, 2015, 
letter withdraws 3745-31-26 (D) from the SIP submission.
    OEPA's revision to 3745-31-27 made clarifications to the rule 
regarding administrative procedures for emission offsets. OEPA's March 
26, 2015, and April 17, 2015, clarification letters withdraw paragraph 
(A)(1)(b) from the SIP submission. The remainder of the revisions to 
3745-31-27 are minor and do not change the meaning of the existing 
language and are therefore approvable.

[[Page 36479]]

B. Definitions

    OEPA has submitted the following definitions to be added to OAC 
3745-31-01: ``emergency'' at 3745-31-01(MM); ``emergency engine'' at 
3745-31-01(NN); ``publicly owned treatment works'' at 3745-31-
01(IIIII); ``semi-public disposal system'' at 3745-31-01(TTTTT); and 
``truck'' at 3745-31-01(GGGGGG). OEPA's March 26, 2015, letter provided 
additional clarification on the definitions for ``emergency'' and 
``publicly owned treatment works,'' and withdrew the definitions 
``permanent'' at 3745-31-01 (QQQQ), ``quantifiable'' at 3745-31-
01(JJJJJ) and ``surplus'' at 3745-31-01(BBBBBB) from the SIP 
submission. OEPA's intent with including a definition of ``emergency'' 
in OAC Chapter 31 was to clearly define situations in which an 
emergency internal combustion engine could operate under the permit 
exemption and permit-by-rule found in OAC rule 3745-31-03. OEPA used 
examples consistent with those used in 40 CFR part 60, subpart IIII, 
the standards of performance for new stationary compression ignition 
internal combustion engines, 40 CFR part 60, subpart JJJJ, the 
standards of performance for new stationary spark ignition internal 
combustion engines, and 40 CFR part 63, subpart ZZZZ, the National 
Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants for Reciprocating 
Internal Combustion Engines. OEPA further explained that this 
definition for ``emergency'' found in OAC rule 3745-31-01 is only 
applicable to the permit exemption found in OAC paragraph 3745-31-
03(A)(1)(nn) and the permit-by-rule found in OAC paragraph 3745-31-
03(A)(4)(b). OEPA believes that the definition of ``emergency'' in 
Chapter 31 does not relate to, interfere with or revise the 40 CFR part 
70 definition of ``emergency''. Given OEPA's clarification on the 
intended application of ``emergency'' and its distinction between 
Chapter 31 and 40 CFR part 70, EPA approves the definition of 
``emergency'' into the SIP.
    Regarding the definition for ``publicly owned treatment works,'' 
OEPA is planning to add a new exemption to OAC rule 3745-31-03 that 
references the term ``semi-public disposal system.'' Because rule 3745-
31-01 was being revised ahead of the changes to the 3745-31-03 rule, 
OEPA decided to include the new exemption into 31-01 so that additional 
rulemaking would not be needed later. The new definition will be used 
only if and when the new exemption becomes effective.
    The definitions for ``emergency engine,'' ``semi-public disposal 
system,'' and ``truck'' are all consistent with the definitions in 
Federal regulations.

C. Organizational and Typographical Changes

    In addition to the substantive revisions made to the rules being 
approved, OEPA made organizational changes to lettering or numbering of 
paragraphs as well as corrections to typographical errors. EPA is also 
approving these revisions as they do not change the meaning of the 
existing language.
    We are publishing this action without prior proposal because we 
view this as a noncontroversial amendment and anticipate no adverse 
comments. However, in the proposed rules section of this Federal 
Register publication, we are publishing a separate document that will 
serve as the proposal to approve the state plan if relevant adverse 
written comments are filed. This rule will be effective August 24, 2015 
without further notice unless we receive relevant adverse written 
comments by July 27, 2015. If we receive such comments, we will 
withdraw this action before the effective date by publishing a 
subsequent document that will withdraw the final action. All public 
comments received will then be addressed in a subsequent final rule 
based on the proposed action. EPA will not institute a second comment 
period. Any parties interested in commenting on this action should do 
so at this time. Please note that if EPA receives adverse comment on an 
amendment, paragraph, or section of this rule and if that provision may 
be severed from the remainder of the rule, EPA may adopt as final those 
provisions of the rule that are not the subject of an adverse comment. 
If we do not receive any comments, this action will be effective August 
24, 2015.

III. Incorporation by Reference

    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 Ohio 
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).

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 Orders 12866 (58 
FR 51735, October 4, 1993) 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 Clean Air Act; 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).
    In addition, 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

[[Page 36480]]

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).
    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 August 24, 2015. 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. Parties with objections to this direct final rule are 
encouraged to file a comment in response to the parallel notice of 
proposed rulemaking for this action published in the proposed rules 
section of today's Federal Register, rather than file an immediate 
petition for judicial review of this direct final rule, so that EPA can 
withdraw this direct final rule and address the comment in the proposed 
rulemaking. This action may not be challenged later in proceedings to 
enforce its requirements. (See section 307(b)(2).)

    (162) On June 19, 2014, the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency 
submitted several PM2.5 rules for approval into the Ohio 
State Implementation Plan (SIP). The changes to the SIP include 
revisions related to particulate matter smaller than 2.5 micrometers 
(PM2.5) defining a significance level for PM2.5 
for nonattainment areas, baseline for determining credit for emission 
offsets, location of offsetting emissions in nonattainment areas, and 
offset requirements. The revisions also include establishing 
definitions for emergency, emergency engine, publicly owned treatment 
works, and semi-public disposal system and incorporating minor 
organizational or typographical changes.
