SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

A. Background

    The air quality planning requirements for the reduction of NOX 
emissions through RACT are set out in section 182(f) of the Act. 
Section 182(f) requirements are described by EPA in a notice, ``State 
Implementation Plans; Nitrogen Oxides Supplement to the General 
Preamble; Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 Implementation of Title I; 
Proposed Rule,'' published November 25, 1992 (57 FR 55620). The 
November 25, 1992 notice should be referred to for detailed information 
on the NOX requirements. Additional guidance memoranda which have 
been released subsequent to the NOX Supplement should also be 
referred to.
    The EPA has defined RACT as the lowest emission limitation that a 
particular source is capable of meeting by the application of control 
technology that is reasonably available considering technological and 
economic feasibility (44 FR 53762, September 17, 1979).
    Section 182(f) of the Act requires states within ozone 
nonattainment areas classified moderate or above or areas within the 
ozone transport region to apply the same requirements to major 
stationary sources of NOX (``major'' as defined in section 302 and 
section 182 (c), (d), and (e)) as are applied to major stationary 
sources of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). For more information on 
what constitutes a major source, see section 2 of the NOX 
Supplement to the General Preamble.
    Section 182(b)(2) requires submittal of RACT rules for major 
stationary sources of VOC emissions (not covered by a pre-enactment 
control technique guidelines (CTG) document or a post-enactment CTG 
document) by November 15, 1992. There were no NOX CTGs issued 
before enactment and EPA has not issued a CTG document for any NOX 
sources since enactment. States, in their RACT rules, are expected to 
require final installation of the actual NOX controls by May 31, 
1995 from those sources for which installation by that date is 
practicable.
    States within the Northeast ozone transport region established by 
section 184(a) should have revised their SIPs to include the RACT 
measures by November 15, 1992. Because major sources in states in a 
transport region are generally subject to at least the same level of 
control as sources in moderate ozone nonattainment areas, EPA believes 
that the schedule for implementing these RACT rules in the

[[Page 2582]]

ozone transport region should be consistent with the requirements of 
section 182(b)(2) and were expected to require final installation of 
the actual NOX controls by May 31, 1995 on those sources for which 
installation by that date is practicable. Based on sections 182(f) and 
184(b), New Jersey is required to apply the NOX RACT requirements 
Statewide.

New Jersey's NOX RACT Regulation

    On November 15, 1993, New Jersey submitted to EPA as a revision to 
the SIP, Subchapter 19, ``Control and Prohibition of Air Pollution From 
Oxides of Nitrogen'' of Chapter 27, Title 7 of the New Jersey 
Administrative Code. Subchapter 19 contains the NOX RACT 
requirements for New Jersey and has an effective date of December 20, 
1993. New Jersey held public hearings on Subchapter 19 in March 1993 
and adopted it on November 15, 1993. New Jersey submitted Subchapter 19 
to EPA as a revision to the SIP on November 15, 1993. EPA found it to 
be administratively and technically complete on December 29, 1993 and 
proposed approval of Subchapter 19 on October 2, 1995 (60 FR 51379). 
Final EPA action on Subchapter 19 is expected to be published in the 
Federal Register soon.

C. Section 19.13--Facility Specific NOX Emission Limits

    Section 19.13 of New Jersey's regulation establishes a procedure 
for a case-by-case determination of what represents RACT for a 
particular facility, item of equipment or source operation. This 
procedure is applicable in two situations: (1) If the major NOX 
facility contains any source operation or item of equipment of a 
category not listed in section 19.2 and which has the potential to emit 
more than 10 tons of NOX per year, except for non-utility boilers, 
or (2) if the owner or operator of a source operation or item of 
equipment of a category that is listed in section 19.2 seeks approval 
of an alternative maximum allowable emission rate.
    New Jersey's procedure requires the owners and/or operators of the 
affected facility to submit either a NOX control plan if they are 
not covered by specific emission limitations or a request for an 
alternative maximum allowable emission rate if they are covered by 
specific emission limitations. The owners/operators must include a 
technical and economic feasibility analysis of the possible alternative 
control measures. RACT determinations for an alternative maximum 
allowable emission rate must consider alternative control strategies 
(e.g., emissions averaging, seasonal fuel switching to natural gas, and 
repowering) in addition to considering control technologies (e.g., low 
NOX burners). In either case, Subchapter 19 provides for New 
Jersey to establish emission limits based upon a RACT determination 
specific to the facility. The resulting control plan or alternate 
maximum allowable emission rate must be submitted to EPA for approval 
as a SIP revision.

D. Analysis of State Submittals

    The twenty-two (22) source specific SIP revisions were all adopted 
by New Jersey at different times during 1994 and 1995 and were found by 
EPA to be administratively and technically complete. Prior to adoption, 
New Jersey published their proposed RACT determinations in local 
newspapers and provided 30 days for public comment and an opportunity 
to request a public hearing. New Jersey reviewed and responded to all 
comments made. New Jersey determined that the proposed NOX control 
plans and alternative maximum allowable emission rates from the owners 
conform with the provisions of section 19.13. New Jersey has issued to 
each owner a ``conditions of approval'' document incorporating approved 
permit conditions which are fully enforceable by the State and which 
contain conditions consistent with Subchapter 19. These ``conditions of 
approval'' documents are identified in the ``Incorporation by 
reference'' section at the end of this document.
    EPA has determined that the NOX emission limits identified in 
New Jersey's letters of approval (with attached ``conditions of 
approval'' document) to the owners represent RACT for each source 
identified in this document. The permit conditions include emission 
limits, work practice standards, testing, monitoring, and 
recordkeeping/reporting requirements. These permit conditions are 
consistent with the NOX RACT requirements specified in Subchapter 
19 and conform to EPA NOX RACT guidance. Therefore, EPA is 
approving the twenty-two (22) source-specific SIP revisions submitted 
by New Jersey dated May 26, 1995, November 8, 1995, January 10, 1996 
and October 10, 1996 as identified in this document.
    EPA's evaluation of each RACT submittal is detailed in a document 
dated October 29, 1996, entitled ``Technical Support Document--NOX 
RACT Source Specific SIP Revisions--State of New Jersey.'' A copy of 
that document is available, upon request, from the EPA Regional Office 
listed in the ADDRESSES section of this document.
    A summary of EPA's findings of each RACT submittal is provided in 
the following sections and is organized into two groups: I. ``Facility-
Specific NOX Emission Limits'' in which a major NOX facility 
has a source operation or item of equipment for which an emission limit 
has not been established pursuant to the presumptive limits identified 
in Subchapter 19, and II. ``Alternative NOX Emission Limits'' in 
which an owner or operator of a source operation or item of equipment 
of a category that is listed in section 19.2 seeks approval of a RACT 
emission limit different from that which is established in Subchapter 
19. This Notice takes action only on the permitted emission rates and 
conditions of approval related to emissions of NOX; action is not 
being taken on any other pollutants which may be permitted by New 
Jersey with regard to these sources.

I. Facility-Specific NOX Emission Limits

1. Edgeboro Disposal, Inc.

    Edgeboro Disposal, Inc. operates a solid waste landfill in East 
Brunswick, Middlesex County, which generates landfill gas that is 
disposed of by five flares. The facility's RACT analysis concluded, and 
New Jersey agreed, that RACT is the current operation of the existing 
flares. The facility-specific NOX emission limit is 0.08 pounds 
NOX per million BTUs (lbs/MM BTU).

2. E.I. duPont DeNemours and Company, Inc.

    E.I. duPont DeNemours and Company, Inc., operates a carbon 
regeneration furnace located in Deepwater, Salem County. The facility's 
RACT analysis concluded, and New Jersey agreed, that RACT is the use of 
the previously installed low NOX burners (LNB), based on DuPont's 
1994 updated Best Available Control Technology (BACT) analysis. The 
facility-specific NOX emission limit is 18.6 pounds per hour (lbs/
hr).

    The Hoeganaes Corporation, located in Riverton, Burlington County, 
manufactures iron and steel powders. Its operations include an electric 
arc furnace (EAF) for melting steel and a tunnel kiln for manufacturing 
sponge iron. The facility's RACT analysis concluded, and New Jersey 
agreed, that RACT is regular maintenance of the EAF refractory which is 
already standard practice at the facility. The facility-specific 
NOX emission limit is 33.6 tons per year (TPY).
    NOX emissions from the tunnel kiln are produced from 252 
natural gas fired burners and from the combustion of coal

[[Page 2583]]

and coke in the process. The facility's RACT analysis concluded, and 
New Jersey agreed, that RACT is burner adjustments to the tunnel kiln, 
which is already a normal procedure to maintain proper combustion 
control. The facility-specific NOX emission limit is 26.4 TPY.

4. Parsippany-Troy Hills Township Sewer Authority

    Parsippany-Troy Hills Township Sewer Authority owns and operates 
two multiple hearth type incinerators to burn sewage sludge from its

11. Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing Co.

    Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing Co. (3M) operates one rotary 
kiln and two dryers in Belle Mead, Somerset County. The facility's RACT 
analysis concluded, and New Jersey agreed, that RACT is the 
installation of LNBs. In addition, the conditions of approval include 
requirements that only natural gas will be combusted as the primary 
fuel and No. 2 fuel oil will be used only during natural gas 
curtailment. The facility-specific NOX emission limits while 
combusting natural gas are 5.7 lbs/hr and 1.6 lbs/hr for the kiln and 
each dryer, respectively.

12. American Ref-Fuel Company

    The American Ref-Fuel Company owns and operates the three mass 
burning water wall incinerators at the Essex County Resource Recovery 
Facility in Newark, Essex County. The facility's RACT analysis 
concluded, and New Jersey agreed, that RACT is the installation of SNCR 
technology utilizing ammonia injection, based on a 1993 BACT analysis.

horsepower internal combustion engines at the Linden Compressor Station 
in Union County and four 1100 horsepower engines at the Lambertville 
Compressor Station in Hunterdon County. The facility's RACT analysis 
concluded, and New Jersey agreed, that RACT is the use of electronic 
ignition controls on each of the Lambertville engines and the use of 
electronic ignition controls combined with installation of equipment to 
automatically control the air to fuel ratio on the Linden engines. The 
alternative NOx emission limit is 8.26 grams per horsepower-hour 
(g/hp-hr) for each Linden engine and 7.22 g/hp-hr for each Lambertville 
engine. After optimization of controls, the NOx emission limits 
will be evaluated and lower alternative emission limits may be 
established.

Final Action

    EPA is approving the permitted conditions described above as RACT 
for the control of NOx emissions from the sources identified in 
the twenty-two source-specific SIP revisions.
    The EPA is publishing this action without prior proposal because 
the Agency views this as a noncontroversial amendment and anticipates 
no adverse comments. However, in a separate document in this Federal 
Register publication, the EPA is proposing to approve the SIP revision 
should adverse or critical comments be filed. This action will be 
effective March 18, 1997, unless, by February 18, 1997 adverse or 
critical comments are received.
    If the EPA receives such comments, this action will be withdrawn 
before the effective date by publishing a subsequent document that will 
withdraw the final action. All public comments received will be 
addressed in a subsequent final rule based on this action serving as a 
proposed rule. The EPA will not institute a second comment period on 
this action. Any parties interested in commenting on this action should 
do so at this time. If no such comments are received, the public is 
advised that this action will be effective March 18, 1997.
    Nothing in this action should be construed as permitting or 
allowing or establishing a precedent for any future request for 
revision to any SIP. Each request for revision to the SIP shall be 
considered separately in light of specific technical, economic, and 
environmental factors and in relation to relevant statutory and 
regulatory requirements.

Administrative Requirements

Executive Order 12866

    This action has been classified as a Table 3 action for signature 
by the Regional Administrator under the procedures published in the 
Federal Register on January 19, 1989 (54 FR 2214-2225), as revised by a 
July 10, 1995 memorandum from Mary Nichols, Assistant Administrator for 
Air and Radiation. The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has 
exempted this regulatory action from E.O. 12866 review.

Regulatory Flexibility Act

    Under the Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 600 et seq., EPA 
must prepare a regulatory flexibility analysis assessing the impact of 
any proposed or final rule on small entities. 5 U.S.C. 603 and 604. 
Alternatively, EPA may certify that the rule will not have a 
significant impact on a substantial number of small entities. Small 
entities include small businesses, small not-for-profit enterprises, 
and government entities with jurisdiction over populations of less than 
50,000.
    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. Moreover, this action does not involve 
generally applicable requirements, but specific requirements for each 
facility which both the source owner and the State have determined to 
be economically and technologically reasonable. This action only 
affects the sources which have requested the SIP revision and which are 
not small entities. Therefore, EPA certifies that this approval action 
does not have a significant impact on small entities.

Unfunded Mandates

    Under section 202 of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 
(``Unfunded Mandates Act''), 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

[[Page 2585]]

may be significantly or uniquely impacted by the rule.
    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 
federal requirements. Accordingly, no additional costs to state, local, 
or tribal governments, or to the private sector, result from this 
action.

Submission to Congress and the General Accounting Office

    Under 5 U.S.C. 801(a)(1)(A) as added by the Small Business 
Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996, EPA submitted 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 
General Accounting Office prior to publication of the rule in today's 
Federal Register. This rule is not a ``major rule'' as defined by 5 
U.S.C. 804(2).

Petitions for Judicial Review

    Under section 307(b)(1) of the Act, petitions for judicial review 
of this action must be filed in the United States Court of Appeals for 
the appropriate circuit by March 18, 1997. 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).)
