New Source Performance Standards and National Emission Standards
for Hazardous Air Pollutants; Delegation of Authority to Louisiana

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Direct final rule; delegation of authority.

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

SUMMARY: The Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality (LDEQ) has
submitted updated regulations for receiving delegation of Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA) authority for implementation and enforcement of
New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) and National Emission Standards
for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAPs) for all sources (both part 70
and non-part 70 sources). The delegation of authority under this action
does not apply to sources located in Indian Country. EPA is providing
notice that it is updating the delegation of certain NSPS to LDEQ, and
taking direct final action to approve the delegation of certain NESHAPs
to LDEQ.

DATES: This rule is effective on April 27, 2015 without further notice,
unless EPA receives relevant adverse comment by March 26, 2015. If EPA
receives such comment, EPA will publish a timely withdrawal in the
Federal Register informing the public that the updated NESHAPs
delegation will not take effect; however, the NSPS delegation will not
be affected by such action.

XIV. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

I. What does this action do?

EPA is providing notice that it is delegating authority for
implementation and enforcement of certain NSPS to LDEQ. EPA is also
taking direct final action to approve the delegation of certain NESHAPs
to LDEQ. With this delegation, LDEQ has the primary responsibility to
implement and enforce the delegated standards.

II. What is the authority for delegation?

Section 111(c)(1) of the Clean Air Act (CAA) authorizes EPA to
delegate authority to any state agency which submits adequate
regulatory procedures for implementation and enforcement of the NSPS
program. The NSPS standards are codified at 40 CFR part 60.
Section 112(l) of the CAA and 40 CFR part 63, subpart E, authorizes
EPA to delegate authority to any state or local agency which submits an
adequate regulatory program for implementation and enforcement of
emission standards for hazardous air pollutants. The hazardous air
pollutant standards are codified at 40 CFR parts 61 and 63.

III. What criteria must Louisiana's programs meet to be approved?

In order to receive delegation of NSPS, a state must develop and
submit to the EPA a procedure for implementing and enforcing the NSPS
in the state, and their regulations and resources must be adequate for
the implementation and enforcement of the NSPS. EPA initially approved
Louisiana's program for the delegation of NSPS on February 22, 1982 (47
FR 07665). EPA reviewed the laws of the State and the rules and
regulations of the Louisiana Department of Natural Resources (now the
LDEQ) and determined the State's procedures, regulations and resources
adequate for the implementation and enforcement of the NSPS program.
This action notifies the public that EPA is updating LDEQ's delegation
to implement and enforce certain additional NSPS.
As to the NESHAP standards in 40 CFR parts 61 and 63, section
112(l)(5) of the CAA enables EPA to approve state air toxics programs
or rules to operate in place of the Federal air toxics program or
rules. 40 CFR part 63, subpart E governs EPA's approval of State
programs or rules under section 112(l).
EPA will approve the State's submittal of a program for
implementation and enforcement of the NESHAPs if we find that:
(1) The State program is ``no less stringent'' than the
corresponding Federal program or rule;
(2) The State has adequate authority and resources to implement the
program;
(3) The schedule for implementation and compliance is sufficiently
expeditious; and
(4) The program otherwise complies with Federal guidance.
In order to obtain approval of its program to implement and enforce
Federal section 112 rules as promulgated without changes (straight
delegation), a State must demonstrate that it meets the approval
criteria of 40 CFR 63.91(d). 40 CFR 63.91(d)(3) provides that interim
or final Title V program approval will satisfy the criteria of 40 CFR
63.91(d) for part 70 sources (sources required to obtain operating
permits pursuant to Title V of the Clean Air Act).

IV. How did LDEQ meet the approval criteria?

As to the NSPS standards in 40 CFR part 60, LDEQ adopted the
Federal standards via incorporation by reference. The LDEQ regulations
are, therefore, at least as stringent as EPA's rules. See 40 CFR
60.10(a). Also, in the EPA initial approval of NSPS delegation, we
determined that the State developed procedures for implementing and
enforcing the NSPS in the State, and that the State's regulations and
resources are adequate for the implementation and enforcement of the
NSPS program. See 47 FR 07665 (February 22, 1982).
As to the NESHAP standards in 40 CFR parts 61 and 63, as part of
its Title V submission LDEQ stated that it intended to use the
mechanism of incorporation by reference to adopt unchanged Federal
section 112 standards into its regulations. This commitment applied to
both existing and future standards as they applied to part 70 sources.
EPA's final interim approval of Louisiana's Title V operating permits
program delegated the authority to implement certain NESHAPs to the
State. See 60 FR 17750 (April 7, 1995). EPA promulgated final full
approval of the State's operating permits program on September 12,
1995. See 60 FR 42296. These interim and final title V program
approvals satisfy the upfront approval criteria of 40 CFR 63.91(d).
Under 40 CFR 63.91(d)(2), once a state has satisfied the up-front
approval criteria, it needs only to reference the previous
demonstration and reaffirm that it still meets the criteria for any
subsequent submittals for delegation of the section 112 standards. LDEQ
has affirmed that it still meets the up-front approval criteria.

V. What is being delegated?

By letter dated November 30, 2010, EPA received a request from
Louisiana to update LDEQ's NSPS delegation and NESHAPs delegation. With
certain exceptions noted in section VI below, LDEQ's request included
NSPS in 40 CFR part 60, and NESHAPs in 40 CFR part 61 and 63, as
amended between July 2, 2008 and July 1, 2009.
By letter dated May 28, 2013, EPA received a second request from
Louisiana to update LDEQ's NSPS delegation. Louisiana's request only
included NSPS in 40 CFR part 60, subpart OOOO, Standards of Performance
for Crude Oil and Natural Gas Production, Transmission and
Distribution, as promulgated by EPA on August 16, 2012 (77 FR 49490).
By letter dated June 21, 2013, EPA received a third request from
Louisiana to update LDEQ's NSPS delegation and NESHAPs delegation. With
certain exceptions noted in section VI below, Louisiana's request
included NSPS in 40 CFR part 60, and NESHAPs in 40 CFR parts 61 and 63,
as amended between July 2, 2009 and July 1, 2012.
By letter dated August 28, 2014, EPA received a fourth request from
Louisiana to update LDEQ's NSPS delegation and NESHAPs delegation. With
certain exceptions noted in section VI below, Louisiana's request
included NSPS in 40 CFR part 60, and NESHAPs in 40 CFR part 61 and 63,
as amended between July 2, 2012 and July 1, 2013.

[[Page 9615]]

VI. What is not being delegated?

The following part 60, 61 and 63 authorities listed below are not
delegated. All of the inquiries and requests concerning implementation
and enforcement of the excluded standards in the State of Louisiana
should be directed to the EPA Region 6 Office.
40 CFR part 60, subpart AAA (Standards of Performance for
New Residential Wood Heaters);
40 CFR part 61, subpart B (National Emission Standards for
Radon Emissions from Underground Uranium Mines);
40 CFR part 61, subpart H (National Emission Standards for
Emissions of Radionuclides Other Than Radon From Department of Energy
Facilities);
40 CFR part 61, subpart I (National Emission Standards for
Radionuclide Emissions from Federal Facilities Other Than Nuclear
Regulatory Commission Licensees and Not Covered by Subpart H);
40 CFR part 61, subpart K (National Emission Standards for
Radionuclide Emissions from Elemental Phosphorus Plants);
40 CFR part 61, subpart Q (National Emission Standards for
Radon Emissions from Department of Energy facilities);
40 CFR part 61, subpart R (National Emission Standards for
Radon Emissions from Phosphogypsum Stacks);
40 CFR part 61, subpart T (National Emission Standards for
Radon Emissions from the Disposal of Uranium Mill Tailings); and
40 CFR part 61, subpart W (National Emission Standards for
Radon Emissions from Operating Mill Tailings).
In addition, EPA cannot delegate to a State any of the Category II
Subpart A authorities set forth in 40 CFR 63.91(g)(2). These include
the following provisions: Sec. 63.6(g), Approval of Alternative Non-
Opacity Standards; Sec. 63.6(h)(9), Approval of Alternative Opacity
Standards; Sec. 63.7(e)(2)(ii) and (f), Approval of Major Alternatives
to Test Methods; Sec. 63.8(f), Approval of Major Alternatives to
Monitoring; and Sec. 63.10(f), Approval of Major Alternatives to
Recordkeeping and Reporting. Also, some Part 63 standards have certain
provisions that cannot be delegated to the States. Therefore, any Part
63 standard that EPA is delegating to LDEQ that provides that certain
authorities cannot be delegated are retained by EPA and not delegated.
Furthermore, no authorities are delegated that require rulemaking in
the Federal Register to implement, or where Federal overview is the
only way to ensure national consistency in the application of the
standards or requirements of CAA section 112. Finally, section 112(r),
the accidental release program authority, is not being delegated by
this approval.
In addition, this delegation to LDEQ to implement and enforce
certain NSPS and NESHAPs does not extend to sources or activities
located in Indian country, as defined in 18 U.S.C. 1151. Under this
definition, EPA treats as reservations, trust lands validly set aside
for the use of a Tribe even if the trust lands have not been formally
designated as a reservation. Consistent with previous federal program
approvals or delegations, EPA will continue to implement the NSPS and
NESHAPs in Indian country because LDEQ has not submitted information to
demonstrate authority over sources and activities located within the
exterior boundaries of Indian reservations and other areas in Indian
country.

VII. How will applicability determinations be made?

In approving the NSPS delegation, LDEQ will obtain concurrence from
EPA on any matter involving the interpretation of section 111 of the
CAA or 40 CFR part 60 to the extent that application, implementation,
administration, or enforcement of these provisions have not been
covered by prior EPA determinations or guidance. See 47 FR 07665
(February 22, 1982).
In approving the NESHAPs delegation, LDEQ will obtain concurrence
from EPA on any matter involving the interpretation of section 112 of
the CAA or 40 CFR parts 61 and 63 to the extent that application,
implementation, administration, or enforcement of these provisions have
not been covered by prior EPA determinations or guidance.

VIII. What authority does EPA have?

We retain the right, as provided by CAA section 111(c)(2), to
enforce any applicable emission standard or requirement under section
111.
We retain the right, as provided by CAA section 112(l)(7), to
enforce any applicable emission standard or requirement under section
112. EPA also has the authority to make certain decisions under the
General Provisions (subpart A) of part 63. We are granting LDEQ some of
these authorities, and retaining others, as explained in sections V and
VI above. In addition, EPA may review and disapprove State
determinations and subsequently require corrections. (See 40 CFR
63.91(g) and 65 FR 55810, 55823, September 14, 2000, as amended at 70
FR 59887, October 13, 2005; 72 FR 27443, May 16, 2007.)
Furthermore, we retain any authority in an individual emission
standard that may not be delegated according to provisions of the
standard. Also, listed in the footnotes of the part 63 delegation table
at the end of this rule are the authorities that cannot be delegated to
any State or local agency which we therefore retain.
Finally, we retain the authorities stated in the original
delegation agreement. See 47 FR 07665 (February 22, 1982).

IX. What information must LDEQ provide to EPA?

Under 40 CFR 60.4(b), all notifications under NSPS must be sent to
both EPA and to LDEQ. Please send notifications and reports to Chief,
Air/Toxics Inspection and Coordination Branch at the EPA Region 6
office.
LDEQ must provide any additional compliance related information to
EPA, Region 6, Office of Enforcement and Compliance Assurance, within
45 days of a request under 40 CFR 63.96(a). In receiving delegation for
specific General Provisions authorities, LDEQ must submit to EPA Region
6, on a semi-annual basis, copies of determinations issued under these
authorities. For 40 CFR parts 61 and 63 standards, these determinations
include: Section 63.1, Applicability Determinations; Section 63.6(e),
Operation and Maintenance Requirements--Responsibility for Determining
Compliance; Section 63.6(f), Compliance with Non-Opacity Standards--
Responsibility for Determining Compliance; Section 63.6(h), Compliance
with Opacity and Visible Emissions Standards--Responsibility for
Determining Compliance; Sections 63.7(c)(2)(i) and (d), Approval of
Site-Specific Test Plans; Section 63.7(e)(2)(i), Approval of Minor
Alternatives to Test Methods; Section 63.7(e)(2)(ii) and (f), Approval
of Intermediate Alternatives to Test Methods; Section 63.7(e)(iii),
Approval of Shorter Sampling Times and Volumes When Necessitated by
Process Variables or Other Factors; Sections 63.7(e)(2)(iv), (h)(2),
and (h)(3), Waiver of Performance Testing; Sections 63.8(c)(1) and
(e)(1), Approval of Site-Specific Performance Evaluation (Monitoring)
Test Plans; Section 63.8(f), Approval of Minor Alternatives to
Monitoring; Section 63.8(f), Approval of Intermediate Alternatives to
Monitoring; Section 63.9 and 63.10, Approval of Adjustments to Time
Periods for Submitting Reports; Section 63.10(f), Approval of Minor

[[Page 9616]]

Alternatives to Recordkeeping and Reporting; Section 63.7(a)(4),
Extension of Performance Test Deadline.

X. What is EPA's oversight role?

EPA must oversee LDEQ's decisions to ensure the delegated
authorities are being adequately implemented and enforced. We will
integrate oversight of the delegated authorities into the existing
mechanisms and resources for oversight currently in place. If, during
oversight, we determine that LDEQ made decisions that decreased the
stringency of the delegated standards, then LDEQ shall be required to
take corrective actions and the source(s) affected by the decisions
will be notified, as required by 40 CFR 63.91(g)(1)(ii). We will
initiate withdrawal of the program or rule if the corrective actions
taken are insufficient. Also see 47 FR 07665 (February 22, 1982).

XI. Should sources submit notices to EPA or LDEQ?

All of the information required pursuant to the Federal NSPS and
NESHAPs (40 CFR parts 60, 61 and 63) should be submitted by sources
located outside of Indian country directly to the LDEQ at the following
address: Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality, PO Box 4301,
Baton Rouge, Louisiana 70821-4301. The LDEQ is the primary point of
contact with respect to delegated NSPS and NESHAPs. Sources do not need
to send a copy to EPA. EPA Region 6 waives the requirement that
notifications and reports for delegated standards be submitted to EPA
in addition to LDEQ, in accordance with 40 CFR 63.9(a)(4)(ii) and
63.10(a)(4)(ii). Also, see 51 FR 20648 (June 6, 1986). For those
standards that are not delegated, sources must continue to submit all
appropriate information to EPA.

XII. How will unchanged authorities be delegated to LDEQ in the future?

In the future, LDEQ will only need to send a letter of request to
update their delegation to EPA, Region 6, for those NSPS which they
have adopted by reference. EPA will amend the relevant portions of the
Code of Federal Regulations showing which NSPS standards have been
delegated to LDEQ. Also, in the future, LDEQ will only need to send a
letter of request for approval to EPA, Region 6, for those NESHAPs
regulations that LDEQ has adopted by reference. The letter must
reference the previous up-front approval demonstration and reaffirm
that it still meets the up-front approval criteria. We will respond in
writing to the request stating that the request for delegation is
either granted or denied. A Federal Register action will be published
to inform the public and affected sources of the delegation, indicate
where source notifications and reports should be sent, and to amend the
relevant portions of the Code of Federal Regulations showing which
NESHAP standards have been delegated to LDEQ.

XIII. Final Action

The public was provided the opportunity to comment on the proposed
approval of the program and mechanism for delegation of section 112
standards, as they apply to part 70 sources, on August 24, 1994, for
the proposed interim approval of LDEQ's Title V operating permits
program; and on April 7, 1995, for the proposed final approval of
LDEQ's Title V operating permits program. In EPA's final full approval
of Louisiana's Operating Permits Program (60 FR 47296), the EPA
discussed the public comments on the proposed final delegation of the
Title V operating permits program. In today's action, the public is
given the opportunity to comment on the approval of LDEQ's request for
delegation of authority to implement and enforce certain section 112
standards for all sources (both part 70 and non-part 70 sources) which
have been adopted by reference into Louisiana's state regulations.
However, the Agency views the approval of these requests as a
noncontroversial action and anticipates no adverse comments. Therefore,
EPA is publishing this rule without prior proposal. However, in the
``Proposed Rules'' section of today's Federal Register publication, EPA
is publishing a separate document that will serve as the proposal to
approve the program and NESHAPs delegation of authority described in
this action if adverse comments are received. This action will be
effective April 27, 2015 without further notice unless the Agency
receives relevant adverse comments by March 26, 2015.
If EPA receives relevant adverse comments, we will publish a timely
withdrawal in the Federal Register informing the public the rule will
not take effect with respect to the updated NESHAPs delegation. We will
address all public comments in a subsequent final rule based on the
proposed rule. The EPA will not institute a second comment period on
this action. Any parties interested in commenting must do so at this
time. Please note that if we receive relevant adverse comment on an
amendment, paragraph, or section of this rule and if that provision may
be severed from the remainder of the rule, we may adopt as final those
provisions of the rule that are not the subject of a relevant adverse
comment.

XIV. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

Under Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993), this
action is not a ``significant regulatory action'' and therefore is not
subject to review by the Office of Management and Budget. For this
reason, this action is also not subject to Executive Order 13211,
``Actions Concerning Regulations That Significantly Affect Energy
Supply, Distribution, or Use'' (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001). This action
merely approves state law as meeting Federal requirements and imposes
no additional requirements beyond those imposed by state law.
Accordingly, the Administrator certifies that this rule will not have a
significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities
under the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.). Because
this rule approves pre-existing requirements under state law and does
not impose any additional enforceable duty beyond that required by
state law, it 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).
In addition, this rule does not have tribal implications as
specified by Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000),
because the delegation is not approved to apply in Indian country
located in the State, and the EPA notes that it will not impose
substantial direct costs on tribal governments or preempt tribal law.
This action also does not have Federalism implications because it does
not have substantial direct effects on the States, on the relationship
between the national government and the States, or on the distribution
of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government,
as specified in Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999).
This action merely approves a state request to receive delegation of
certain Federal standards, and does not alter the relationship or the
distribution of power and responsibilities established in the Clean Air
Act. This rule also is not subject to Executive Order 13045
``Protection of Children from Environmental Health Risks and Safety
Risks'' (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997), because it is not economically
significant.
In reviewing delegation submissions, EPA's role is to approve
submissions, provided that they meet the criteria of the Clean Air Act.
In this context, in the

[[Page 9617]]

absence of a prior existing requirement for the State to use voluntary
consensus standards (VCS), EPA has no authority to disapprove a
delegation submission for failure to use VCS. It would thus be
inconsistent with applicable law for EPA to use VCS in place of a
delegation submission that otherwise satisfies the provisions of the
Clean Air Act. Thus, the requirements of section 12(d) of the National
Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272 note) do
not apply. This rule does not impose an information collection burden
under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C.
3501 et seq.).
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 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.
804(2).
Under section 307(b)(1) of the Clean Air Act, petitions for
judicial review of this action must be filed in the United States Court
of Appeals for the appropriate circuit by April 27, 2015. Filing a
petition for reconsideration by the Administrator of this final rule
does not affect the finality of this rule 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)).
