SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

Each State is required by section 110(a)(1) of the Federal Clean Air Act (the Act), to have a SIP that contains the control measures and strategies which will be used to attain and maintain the national ambient air quality standards. The SIP is extensive, containing such elements as emission inventories, monitoring network, attainment demonstrations, and enforcement mechanisms. The control measures and strategies must be formally adopted by each State after the public has had an opportunity to comment on them. They are then submitted to EPA as SIP revisions on which EPA must formally act.

Once these control measures are approved by EPA pursuant to section 110(k) of the Act, after notice and comment, they are incorporated into the SIP and are identified in part 52 (Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans) of 40 CFR. The actual State regulations which are approved by EPA are not reproduced in their entirety in 40 CFR part 52, but are “incorporated by reference,” which means that the citation of a given State regulation with a specific effective date has been approved by EPA. This format allows both EPA and the public to know which measures are contained in a given SIP and ensures that the State is enforcing the regulations. It also allows EPA to take enforcement action or the public to bring citizen suits, should a State not enforce its SIP-approved regulations.

The SIP is an active or changing document which can be revised by the State as necessary to address the unique air pollution problems in the State as long as changes are not contrary to Federal law. Therefore, EPA, from time to time, must take action to incorporate into the SIP, revisions of the State program which may contain new and/or revised regulations. Regulations approved into the SIP are then incorporated by reference into part 52. Pursuant to section 110(h)(1) of the Act and as a result of consultations between EPA and the Office of Federal Register, EPA revised the procedures May 22, 1997 (62 FR 27968), for incorporating by reference federally-approved SIPs and began the process of developing: (1) a revised SIP document for each State that would be incorporated by reference under the provisions of 1 CFR part 51, (2) a revised mechanism for announcing EPA approval of revisions to an applicable SIP and updating both the IBR document and the CFR, and (3) a revised format of the “Identification of plan” sections for each applicable subpart to reflect these revised IBR procedures. 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.

II. Content of Revised IBR Document

The new SIP compilations contain the federally-approved portion of State regulations and source specific permits submitted by each State agency. These regulations and source-specific permits have all been approved by EPA through previous rulemaking actions in the

Federal Register

. The SIP compilations are stored in 3-ring binders and will be updated primarily on an annual basis.

If no significant changes are made for any State to the SIP during the year, an update will not be made during that year. If significant changes occur during the year, an update could be done on a more frequent basis, as applicable. Typically, only the revised sections of the compilation will be updated. Complete resubmittals of a State SIP compilation will be done on an as-needed basis.

Each compilation contains two parts. Part 1 contains the regulations and Part 2 contains the source-specific permits that have been approved as part of the SIP. Each part has a table of contents identifying each regulation or each source specific permit. The table of contents in the compilation corresponds to the table of contents published in 40 CFR part 52 for these States. The EPA Regional offices have the primary responsibility for ensuring accuracy and updating the compilations. The Region 6 EPA Office developed and will maintain the compilations for Oklahoma. A copy of the full text of the State's current SIP-approved regulations will also be maintained at the Office of the Federal Register and EPA's Air Docket and Information Center in Washington, DC. The EPA is phasing in the SIP compilations for individual States. This revised format is consistent with the SIP compilation requirements of section 110(h)(1) of the Act.

III. Revised Format of the “Identification of plan” Sections in Each Subpart

In order to better serve the public, EPA is revising the organization of the “Identification of plan” section of 40 CFR section 52.1920. The EPA is including additional information which will more clearly identify the provisions that constitute the enforceable elements of the SIP.

The revised “Identification of plan” section will contain five subsections: (a) Purpose and scope; (b) Incorporation by reference; (c) EPA approved regulations; (d) EPA approved source-specific permits; and (e) EPA approved nonregulatory provisions, such as

transportation control measures, statutory provisions, control strategies, monitoring networks, etc.

IV. Enforceability and Legal Effect

This change to the procedures for incorporation by reference announced today will not alter in any way the enforceability or legal effect of approved SIP materials, including both those approved in the past or to be approved in the future. As of the effective date of the final rule approving a SIP revision, all provisions identified in the

Federal Register

document announcing the SIP approval will be federally enforceable, both by EPA under section 113 of the Act and by citizens under section 304 of the Act, where applicable. All revisions to the applicable SIP are federally enforceable as of the effective date of EPA approval even if they have not yet been incorporated by reference. To facilitate enforcement of previously approved SIP provisions and provide a smooth transition to the new SIP processing system, EPA is retaining the original “Identification of Plan” section, previously appearing in the CFR as the first or second section of part 52 for each State subpart.

V. Notice of Administrative Change

Today's action constitutes a “housekeeping” exercise to ensure that federally approved State plans are accurately reflected in 40 CFR part 52. State SIP revisions are controlled by EPA Regulations at 40 CFR part 51. When EPA receives a formal SIP revision request, the Agency must publish the proposed revision in the

Federal Register

and provide for public comment before approval.

The EPA has determined that today's 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). Today's 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 since the codification only reflects existing law. Immediate revision to the CFR benefits the public by removing outdated citations.

VI. Administrative Requirements

A. Executive Order 12866

The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has exempted this regulatory action from Executive Order 12866, entitled “Regulatory Planning and Review.”

B. Executive Order 13132

Executive 13132, entitled “Federalism” (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999) revokes and replaces Executive Order 12612, “Federalism,” and Executive Order 12875, “Enhancing the Intergovernmental Partnership.” Executive Order 13132 requires EPA to develop an accountable process to ensure “meaningful and timely input by State and local officials in the development of regulatory policies that have federalism implications.” “Policies that have federalism implications” is defined in the Executive Order to include regulations that 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.” Under Executive Order 13132, EPA may not issue a regulation that has federalism implications, that imposes substantial direct compliance costs, and that is not required by statute, unless the Federal government provides the funds necessary to pay the direct compliance costs incurred by State and local governments, or EPA consults with State and local officials early in the process of developing the proposed regulation. The EPA also may not issue a regulation that has federalism implications and that preempts State law unless the Agency consults with State and local officials early in the process of developing the proposed regulation.

This final rule will 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, because it merely approves a State rule implementing a Federal standard, and does not alter the relationship or the distribution of power and responsibilities established in the Act. Thus, the requirements of section 6 of the Executive Order do not apply to this rule.

C. Executive Order 13045

Executive Order 13045, entitled “Protection of Children from Environmental Health Risks and Safety Risks” (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997), applies to any rule that: (1) Is determined to be “economically significant” as defined under Executive Order 12866, and (2) concerns an environmental health or safety risk that EPA has reason to believe may have a disproportionate effect on children. If the regulatory action meets both criteria, the Agency must evaluate the environmental health or safety effects of the planned rule on children, and explain why the planned regulation is preferable to other potentially effective and reasonably feasible alternatives considered by the Agency.

The EPA interprets Executive Order 13045 as applying only to those regulatory actions that are based on health or safety risks, such that the analysis required under section 5-501 of the Order has the potential to influence the regulation. This final rule is not subject to Executive Order 13045 because it approves a State program.

D. Executive Order 13084

Under Executive Order 13084, EPA may not issue a regulation that is not required by statute, that significantly or uniquely affects the communities of Indian tribal governments, and that imposes substantial direct compliance costs on those communities, unless the Federal government provides the funds necessary to pay the direct compliance costs incurred by the tribal governments, or EPA consults with those governments. If EPA complies by consulting, Executive Order 13084 requires EPA to provide to the OMB, in a separately identified section of the preamble to the rule, a description of the extent of EPA's prior consultation with representatives of affected tribal governments, a summary of the nature of their concerns, and a statement supporting the need to issue the regulation. In addition, Executive Order 13084 requires EPA to develop an effective process permitting elected officials and other representatives of Indian tribal governments “to provide meaningful and timely input in the development of regulatory policies on matters that significantly or uniquely affect their communities.”

Today's rule does not significantly or uniquely affect the communities of Indian tribal governments. This action does not involve or impose any requirements that affect Indian tribes. Accordingly, the requirements of section 3(b) of Executive Order 13084 do not apply to this rule.

E. Regulatory Flexibility Act

The Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 600

et seq.

, generally requires an agency to conduct a regulatory flexibility analysis of any rule subject to notice and comment rulemaking requirements unless the agency certifies that the rule will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. Small entities include small businesses, small not-for-profit enterprises, and small governmental jurisdictions. This final rule will not have a significant impact on a substantial number of small entities because SIP approvals under section 110 and subchapter I, part D of the Act do not create any new requirements but simply approve requirements that the State is already imposing. Therefore, because the Federal SIP approval does not create any new requirements, I certify that this action will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. Moreover, due to the nature of the Federal-State relationship under the Act, preparation of a flexibility analysis would constitute Federal inquiry into the economic reasonableness of state action. The Act forbids EPA to base its actions concerning SIPs on such grounds.

v.

U.S. EPA,

427 U.S. 246, 255-66 (1976); 42 U.S.C. 7410(a)(2).

F. Unfunded Mandates

Under section 202 of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995, signed into law on March 22, 1995, EPA must prepare a budgetary impact statement to accompany any proposed or final rule that includes a Federal mandate that may result in estimated annual costs to State, local, or tribal governments in the aggregate; or to private sector, of $100 million or more. Under section 205, EPA must select the most cost-effective and least burdensome alternative that achieves the objectives of the rule and is consistent with statutory requirements. Section 203 requires EPA to establish a plan for informing and advising any small governments that may be significantly or uniquely impacted by the rule.

The EPA has determined that the approval action promulgated does not include a Federal mandate that may result in estimated annual costs of $100 million or more to either State, local, or tribal governments in the aggregate, or to the private sector. This Federal action approves pre-existing requirements under State or local law, and imposes no new requirements. Accordingly, no additional costs to State, local, or tribal governments, or to the private sector, result from this action.

G. 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. The 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 can not 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). This rule is effective August 2, 2000.

H. Petitions for Judicial Review

The EPA has determined that the provisions of section 307(b)(1) of the Clean Air Act pertaining to petitions for judicial review are not applicable to this action. Prior EPA rulemaking actions approving each individual component of Oklahoma SIP compilations had 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 action for Oklahoma.
