The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is approving state implementation plan (SIP) revisions submitted by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania (Pennsylvania). The revisions pertain to a demonstration that Philadelphia County (Philadelphia) meets the requirements for reasonably available control technology (RACT) of the Clean Air Act (CAA) for nitrogen oxides (NO<INF>X</INF>) and volatile organic compounds (VOC) as ozone precursors for the 1997 8-hour ozone national ambient air quality standards (NAAQS). In this rulemaking action, EPA is approving three separate SIP revisions addressing RACT under the 1997 8-hour ozone NAAQS for Philadelphia; approving portions of two previously submitted RACT SIP revisions, which EPA had found deficient and conditionally approved; and converting the prior conditional approval of the Philadelphia RACT demonstration for the 1997 8-hour ozone NAAQS to full approval. EPA is approving these revisions to the Pennsylvania SIP addressing 1997 8-hour ozone RACT for Philadelphia in accordance with the requirements of the CAA.

Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans; 
Pennsylvania; Philadelphia County Reasonably Available Control 
Technology Under the 1997 8-Hour Ozone National Ambient Air Quality 
Standards

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is approving state 
implementation plan (SIP) revisions submitted by the Commonwealth of 
Pennsylvania (Pennsylvania). The revisions pertain to a demonstration 
that Philadelphia County (Philadelphia) meets the requirements for 
reasonably available control technology (RACT) of the Clean Air Act 
(CAA) for nitrogen oxides (NOX) and volatile organic 
compounds (VOC) as ozone precursors for the 1997 8-hour ozone national 
ambient air quality standards (NAAQS). In this rulemaking action, EPA 
is approving three separate SIP revisions addressing RACT under the 
1997 8-hour ozone NAAQS for Philadelphia; approving portions of two 
previously submitted RACT SIP revisions, which EPA had found deficient 
and conditionally approved; and converting the prior conditional 
approval of the Philadelphia RACT demonstration for the 1997 8-hour 
ozone NAAQS to full approval. EPA is approving these revisions to the 
Pennsylvania SIP addressing 1997 8-hour ozone RACT for Philadelphia in 
accordance with the requirements of the CAA.

DATES: This final rule is effective on November 7, 2016.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background

    On June 15, 2016 (81 FR 38992), EPA published a notice of proposed 
rulemaking (NPR) for the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. In the NPR, EPA 
proposed approval of five revisions to the Pennsylvania SIP to satisfy 
the RACT requirements for the 1997 8-hour ozone NAAQS for Philadelphia. 
The formal SIP revisions were submitted by the Pennsylvania Department 
of Environmental Protection (PADEP), on behalf of Philadelphia Air 
Management Services (AMS), on September 29, 2006, June 22, 2010, June 
27, 2014, February 18, 2015, and April 26, 2016.
    Pursuant to section 110(k)(4) of the CAA, on December 13, 2013 (78 
FR 75902), EPA conditionally approved the Philadelphia 1997 8-hour 
ozone RACT demonstration, as provided in the 2006 and 2010 SIP 
revisions, with the condition that PADEP, on behalf of AMS, submitted 
additional SIP revisions addressing the source-specific RACT 
requirements for major sources of NOX and/or VOC in 
Philadelphia under the 1997 8-hour ozone NAAQS. EPA had identified two 
deficiencies in the 1997 8-hour ozone Philadelphia RACT demonstration, 
as provided in the 2006 SIP revision and the 2010 SIP revision, which 
precluded EPA's approval. These deficiencies relied on Pennsylvania's 
NOX SIP Call SIP provisions to address RACT for electric 
generating units (EGUs),1 2 which cannot meet RACT based on 
a 2009 decision from the United States Court of Appeals for the 
District of Columbia Circuit (D.C. Circuit); \3\ and not sufficiently 
addressing source-specific RACT requirements for certain major sources 
of NOX and VOC under the Pennsylvania SIP approved 
regulation in 25 Pa Code sections 129.91-92. Altogether, the RACT SIP 
revisions submitted to EPA on June 27, 2014, February 18, 2015, and 
April 26, 2016 are intended to fulfill the conditions in EPA's December 
13, 2013 conditional approval. This rulemaking action addresses all 
five SIP revisions concerning Philadelphia RACT requirements under the 
1997 8-hour ozone NAAQS.\4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ In October 1998, EPA finalized the ``Finding of Significant 
Contribution and Rulemaking for Certain States in the Ozone 
Transport Assessment Group Region for Purposes of Reducing Regional 
Transport of Ozone''--commonly called the NOX SIP Call. 
See 63 FR 57356 (October 27, 1998).
    \2\ The Philadelphia 2006 RACT SIP revision certified the 
following NOX SIP Call related provisions, as previously 
approved by EPA into the Pennsylvania SIP: 25 Pa Code sections 
145.1-145.100 (66 FR 43795, August 21, 2001), 25 Pa Code sections 
145.111-145.113 (71 FR 40048, July, 14, 2006), and 25 Pa Code 
sections 145.141-144 (71 FR 40048, July, 14, 2006.
    \3\ See NRDC v. EPA, 571 F.3d 1245 (D.C. Cir. 2009).
    \4\ The five SIP submittals include the submissions on September 
29, 2006, June 22, 2010, June 27, 2014, February 18, 2015, and April 
26, 2016.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

II. Summary of SIP Revisions

    On September 29, 2006, PADEP submitted, on behalf of AMS, a SIP 
revision purporting to address the RACT requirements for Philadelphia 
under the 1997 8-hour ozone NAAQS. The 2006 SIP revision consisted of a 
RACT demonstration for Philadelphia, including a certification that 
previously adopted RACT regulations approved by EPA in Pennsylvania's 
SIP under the 1-hour ozone NAAQS continue to represent RACT for the 
1997 8-hour ozone NAAQS implementation purposes; and a negative 
declaration that certain VOC source categories that would be covered by 
Control Technique Guideline (CTG) documents \5\ do not exist in 
Philadelphia. The 2006 SIP revision also included federally enforceable 
permits that represented RACT control for four major VOC sources, but 
these particular requirements were later addressed by the 2010 SIP 
revision, thus superseding this portion of the 2006 SIP revision.\6\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ Section 182(b)(2) of the CAA requires states with moderate, 
or worse, ozone nonattainment areas to implement RACT controls on 
each VOC stationary source category covered by a CTG document issued 
by EPA.
    \6\ EPA determined that the provisions in the 2006 and 2010 SIP 
revisions were related in addressing Philadelphia's 1997 8-hour 
ozone NAAQS RACT obligation and were not separable for approval 
purposes as each SIP submittal contained provisions addressing RACT 
obligations.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Another SIP revision addressing RACT requirements for certain VOC 
source categories covered by CTGs in Philadelphia was submitted by 
PADEP, on behalf of AMS, on June 22, 2010. The 2010 SIP revision 
consisted of two new CTG regulations, Air Management Regulation (AMR) V 
section XV (``Control of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) from Marine 
Vessel Coating Operations'') and AMR V section XVI (``Synthetic Organic 
Manufacturing Industry (SOCMI) Air Oxidation, Distillation, and Reactor 
Processes''), and related amendments to AMR V Section I 
(``Definitions''), as adopted by AMS on April 26, 2010, effective upon 
adoption. The 2010 SIP revision also included a negative declaration 
for the CTG source category of natural gas and gasoline processing 
plants.
    On June 27, 2014, February 18, 2015, and April 26, 2016, PADEP 
submitted to EPA, on behalf of AMS, three separate SIP revisions 
pertaining to the Philadelphia 1997 8-hour ozone RACT demonstration to 
fulfill the conditions in EPA's December 13, 2013 conditional approval. 
The three latest RACT SIP revisions include a RACT evaluation for each 
major source of NOX and/or VOC in Philadelphia.
    AMS evaluated a total of 25 major NOX and/or VOC sources 
in Philadelphia for 1997 8-hour ozone RACT, from which 16 major sources 
were subject to Pennsylvania's source-specific RACT requirements in 25 
Pa Code 129.91-92. The new or additional controls or the revised 
existing controls resulting from the source-specific RACT 
determinations were specified as requirements in new or revised 
federally enforceable permits (RACT permits) issued by AMS for each 
source. These RACT permits are included as part of the Philadelphia 
RACT SIP revisions for EPA's approval in the Pennsylvania SIP under 40 
CFR 52.2020(d)(1), and are specified in Table 1.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
\a\ Grays Ferry Cogeneration, Veolia Schuylkill, and Veolia Energy Efficiency are treated as a single major
  source after the 1-hour RACT determination was issued. AMS submitted RACT documentation for each facility
  separately, although considering RACT applicability as a single major source of NOX.

    As part of the source-specific RACT determinations, AMS also 
certified for certain emissions units at major sources subject to 
previously approved source-specific RACT determinations, that the 
existing RACT controls approved under the 1-hour ozone NAAQS continued 
to represent RACT for the 1997 8-hour ozone NAAQS. Furthermore, AMS 
addressed another 27 NOX and/or VOC sources in Philadelphia 
that were previously subject to source-specific RACT determinations for 
the 1-hour ozone NAAQS in the Pennsylvania SIP, by certifying that 
these sources are no longer subject to RACT for purposes of the 1997 8-
hour ozone NAAQS because they are either no longer major sources of 
NOX and/or VOC or have shutdown. AMS requested to remove 
from the SIP source-specific RACT determinations approved under the 1-
hour ozone NAAQS, as codified in 40 CFR 52.2020(d)(1), for 18 sources 
that have shutdown, as listed in Table 2.

    On April 26, 2016, PADEP submitted a letter, on behalf of AMS, 
withdrawing from the 2006 SIP revision the certification of the 
Pennsylvania rules related to the NOX SIP Call as 1997 8-
hour ozone RACT, specifically 25 Pa Code sections 145.1-145.100, 25 Pa 
Code sections 145.111-145.113, and 25 Pa Code sections 145.141-144. In 
the letter, PADEP reaffirms that AMS is no longer relying on the SIP 
approved provisions related to the NOX SIP Call as 1997 8-
hour ozone RACT for any sources in Philadelphia.

III. EPA's Rationale for Final Action

    After review and evaluation, EPA determined that AMS provided 
adequate documentation in the September 29, 2006, June 22, 2010, June 
27, 2014, February 18, 2015 and April 26, 2016 Philadelphia RACT SIP 
revisions to support that RACT has been met for all major sources of 
NOX and/or VOC in Philadelphia, including sources subject to 
source-specific RACT determinations, in accordance with the

[[Page 69690]]

Phase 2 Ozone Implementation Rule and latest available information.\7\ 
EPA finds that the June 27, 2014, February 18, 2015, and April 26, 2016 
SIP revisions satisfy the December 15, 2013 conditional approval, and 
thus adequately correct the deficiencies in the Philadelphia RACT 
demonstration EPA identified from reviewing the 2006 and 2010 SIP 
revisions. EPA also determined that the certified and recently adopted 
NOX and VOC regulations and the negative declarations 
included in the September 29, 2006 and June 22, 2010 SIP revisions, 
with exception of the withdrawn portions of the 2006 SIP revision, meet 
all other remaining CAA RACT requirements under the 1997 8-hour ozone 
NAAQS for Philadelphia. For further discussion on EPA's rationale for 
its final rulemaking action are explained in the NPR and in the 
technical support document (TSD), both available in the docket for this 
rulemaking action, and thus will not be restated here. No public 
comments were received on the NPR.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ ``Final Rule to Implement the 8-Hour Ozone National Ambient 
Air Quality Standard--Phase 2,'' 70 FR 71612-71705 (November 29, 
2005).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

IV. Final Action

    In this final rulemaking action, EPA determines that the 
Philadelphia 1997 8-hour ozone NAAQS RACT demonstration, included 
within the September 29, 2006, June 22, 2010, June 27, 2014, February 
18, 2015, and April 26, 2016 SIP revisions, satisfies all applicable 
RACT requirements under the CAA for Philadelphia for the 1997 8-hour 
ozone NAAQS. EPA is taking various actions on the revisions to the 
Pennsylvania SIP addressing Philadelphia 1997 8-hour ozone RACT. EPA is 
approving as RACT under the 1997 8-hour ozone NAAQS for Philadelphia 
the certified and recently adopted NOX and VOC regulations 
and CTG negative declarations included in the September 29, 2006 and 
June 22, 2010 SIP revisions, with exception of the portions of the 2006 
SIP submittal that were withdrawn by PADEP on April 26, 2016. 
Specifically, EPA is finalizing approval of the CTG RACT requirements 
in AMR V sections I, XV, and XVI, as amended or adopted in April 26, 
2010 and effective upon adoption. EPA is approving as RACT under the 
1997 8-hour ozone NAAQS for Philadelphia the source-specific RACT 
determinations provided in the June 27, 2014, February 18, 2015, and 
April 26, 2016 SIP revisions. EPA is also removing the conditional 
nature of the December 13, 2013 conditional approval and granting full 
approval to the Philadelphia 1997 8-hour ozone NAAQS RACT 
demonstration, based on EPA's determination that the June 27, 2014, 
February 18, 2015, and April 26, 2016 RACT SIP revisions satisfy the 
conditions established in its conditional approval.

V. 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 source-
specific RACT determinations under the 1997 8-hour ozone NAAQS for 
certain major sources of NOX and VOC emissions and 
Philadelphia CTG RACT regulations of AMR V sections I, XV, and XVI, as 
amended or adopted in April 26, 2010 and effective upon adoption. 
Therefore, these materials have been approved by EPA for inclusion in 
the SIP, have been incorporated by reference by EPA into that plan, are 
fully federally enforceable under sections 110 and 113 of the CAA as of 
the effective date of the final rulemaking of EPA's approval, and will 
be incorporated by reference by the Director of the Federal Register in 
the next update to the SIP compilation. 62 FR 27968 (May 22, 1997). EPA 
has made, and will continue to make, these materials generally 
available through http://www.regulations.gov and/or at the EPA Region 
III Office (please contact the person identified in the FOR FURTHER 
INFORMATION CONTACT section of this preamble for more information).

VI. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

A. General Requirements

    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 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).
    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.

B. Submission to Congress and the Comptroller General

    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).

    In addition, section 804 exempts from section 801 the following 
types of rules: Rules of particular applicability; rules relating to 
agency management or personnel; and rules of agency organization, 
procedure, or practice that do not substantially affect the rights or 
obligations of non-agency parties. 5 U.S.C. 804(3). Because a portion 
of this rule is a rule of particular applicability, EPA is not required 
to submit a rule report regarding the portion of this action which is 
of particular applicability under section 801, but will submit the 
remainder of the rule.

C. Petitions for Judicial Review

    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 December 6, 2016. 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 approving the Philadelphia RACT requirements under 
the 1997 8-hour ozone NAAQS may not be challenged later in proceedings 
to enforce its requirements. (See section 307(b)(2)).
