[FRL 5938-6]


Underground Storage Tank Program: Approved State Program for the 
Commonwealth of Puerto Rico

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Immediate final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976 (RCRA), as 
amended, authorizes the United States Environmental Protection Agency 
(EPA) to grant approval to any State to operate its underground storage 
tank program in the State in lieu of the federal program. 40 CFR part 
282 codifies EPA's decision to approve State programs and incorporates 
by reference those provisions of the State statutes and regulations 
that will be subject to EPA's inspection and enforcement authorities 
under sections 9005 and 9006 of RCRA subtitle I and other applicable 
statutory and regulatory provisions. This rule codifies in part 282 the 
approval of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico's underground storage tank 
program and incorporates by reference appropriate provisions of the 
Commonwealth's statutes and regulations.

DATES: This regulation is effective March 31, 1998, unless EPA 
publishes a prior Federal Register document withdrawing this immediate 
final rule. All comments on the codification of the Commonwealth of 
Puerto Rico's underground storage tank program must be received by the 
close of business March 2, 1998. The incorporation by reference of 
certain publications listed in the regulations is approved by the 
Director of the Federal Register, as of March 31, 1998, in accordance 
with 5 U.S.C. 552(a).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    Section 9004 of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976 
(RCRA), as amended, 42 U.S.C. 6991c, authorizes the United States 
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to grant approval to any State, 
which term includes the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico pursuant to Section 
1004(31) of RCRA, 42 U.S.C. 6903(31), to operate its underground 
storage tank program in the State in lieu of the federal underground 
storage tank program. EPA is publishing a Federal Register document 
announcing its decision to grant approval to Commonwealth of Puerto 
Rico concurrently with this document. Approval will be effective on 
March 31, 1998.
    EPA codifies its approval of State programs in 40 CFR part 282 and 
incorporates by reference therein those provisions of the State 
statutes and regulations that will be subject to EPA's inspection and 
enforcement authorities under sections 9005 and 9006 of subtitle I of 
RCRA, 42 U.S.C. 6991d and 6991e, and other applicable statutory and 
regulatory provisions. Today's rulemaking codifies EPA's approval of 
the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico's underground storage tank program. 
This codification reflects the State program in effect at the time EPA 
grants the Commonwealth's approval under section 9004(a), 42 U.S.C. 
6991c(a) for its underground storage tank program. Notice and 
opportunity for comment were provided earlier on EPA's tentative 
determination to approve the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico program, and 
EPA is not now reopening that decision nor requesting comment on it.
    This effort provides clear notice to the public of the scope of the 
approved program in the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. Codifying and 
incorporating by reference the Commonwealth's statutes and regulations 
does not restrict in any way federal authority to promulgate new laws 
or regulations relating to subtitle I of RCRA or to act otherwise 
pursuant to federal authority. By codifying the approved Commonwealth 
of Puerto Rico program and by amending the Code of Federal Regulations 
whenever a new or different set of requirements is approved in Puerto 
Rico, the status of federally approved requirements of the Commonwealth 
of Puerto Rico program will be readily discernible. Only those 
provisions of the Commonwealth's underground storage tank program for 
which approval has been granted by EPA may be incorporated by reference 
for enforcement purposes.
    To codify EPA's approval of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico's 
underground storage tank program, EPA has added section 282.102 to 
Title 40 of the CFR. Section 282.102 incorporates by reference for 
enforcement purposes the Commonwealth's statutes and regulations. 
Section 282.102 also references the Attorney General's

[[Page 4592]]

Statement, Demonstration of Adequate Enforcement Procedures, the 
Program Description, and the Memorandum of Agreement, which are 
approved as part of the underground storage tank program under subtitle 
I of RCRA. With regard to the statutory references contained in the 
Attorney General's Statement, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico has 
chosen to cite to Articles in a compilation of the Commonwealth's 
statute in its amended form, rather than to corresponding Sections in 
the codified version of that amended statute.
    EPA retains the authority under sections 9003(h)(1), 9005 and 9006 
of subtitle I of RCRA, 42 U.S.C. 6991b(h)(1), 6991d and 6991e, and 
other applicable statutory and regulatory provisions to undertake 
inspections, enforcement and corrective actions in approved States. 
With respect to such actions, EPA will rely on federal sanctions, 
federal authorities, and federal procedures rather than the State 
authorized analogues to these provisions. Therefore, the approved 
Commonwealth of Puerto Rico enforcement authorities will not be 
incorporated by reference. Section 282.102 lists those approved 
Commonwealth authorities that would fall into this category.
    The public also needs to be aware that some provisions of the 
Commonwealth's underground storage tank program are not part of the 
federally approved State program, because such provisions are ``broader 
in scope'' than subtitle I of RCRA. See 40 CFR 281.12(a)(3)(ii). As a 
result, State provisions which are ``broader in scope'' than the 
federal program are not incorporated by reference for purposes of 
enforcement in Part 282. Section 282.102 of the codification simply 
lists for reference and clarity the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico 
statutory and regulatory provisions which are ``broader in scope'' than 
the federal program and which are not, therefore, part of the approved 
program being codified today. ``Broader in scope'' provisions cannot be 
enforced by EPA; the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, however, will 
continue to implement and enforce such provisions.

Certification Under the Regulatory Flexibility Act

    EPA has determined that this codification will not have a 
significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. 
Such small entities which own and/or operate USTs are already subject 
to the Commonwealth requirements authorized by EPA under 40 CFR Part 
281. EPA's codification does not impose any additional burdens on these 
small entities. This is because EPA's codification would simply result 
in an administrative change, rather than a change in the substantive 
requirements imposed on small entities.
    Therefore, EPA provides the following certification under the 
Regulatory Flexibility Act, as amended by the Small Business Regulatory 
Enforcement Fairness Act. Pursuant to the provision at 5 U.S.C. 605(b), 
I hereby certify that this codification will not have a significant 
economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. This 
codification incorporates the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico's 
requirements which have been authorized by EPA under 40 CFR Part 281 
into the Code of Federal Regulations. It does not impose any new 
burdens on small entities. This rule, therefore, does not require a 
regulatory flexibility analysis.

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 this rule in today's 
Federal Register. This rule is not a ``major rule'' as defined by 5 
U.S.C. 804(2).

Unfunded Mandates Reform Act

    Title II of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (UMRA), P.L. 
104-4, establishes requirements for federal agencies to assess the 
effects of certain regulatory actions on State, local, and tribal 
governments and the private sector. Under sections 202 and 205 of the 
UMRA, EPA generally must prepare a written statement of economic and 
regulatory alternatives analyses for proposed and final rules with 
federal mandates, as defined by the UMRA, that may result in 
expenditures to State, local, and tribal governments, in the aggregate, 
or to the private sector, of $100 million or more in any one year. The 
section 202 and 205 requirements do not apply to today's action because 
it is not a ``federal mandate'' and because it does not impose annual 
costs of $100 million or more.
    Today's rule contains no federal mandates for State, local or 
tribal governments or the private sector for two reasons. First, 
today's action does not impose new or additional enforceable duties on 
any State, local or tribal governments or the private sector because it 
merely makes federally enforceable existing requirements with which 
regulated entities must already comply under Commonwealth law. Second, 
the Act also generally excludes from the definition of a ``federal 
mandate'' duties that arise from participation in a voluntary federal 
program. The requirements being codified today are the result of the 
Commonwealth of Puerto Rico's voluntary participation in accordance 
with RCRA subtitle I.
    Even if today's rule did contain a federal mandate, this rule will 
not result in annual expenditures of $100 million or more for State, 
local, and/or tribal governments in the aggregate, or the private 
sector because today's action merely codifies an existing Commonwealth 
program that EPA is authorizing. Thus, today's rule is not subject to 
the requirements of sections 202 and 205 of the UMRA.
    The requirements of section 203 of UMRA also do not apply to this 
action. Before EPA establishes any regulatory requirements that may 
significantly or uniquely affect small governments, section 203 of UMRA 
requires EPA to develop a small government agency plan. This rule 
contains no regulatory requirements that might significantly or 
uniquely affect small governments. EPA recognizes that although small 
governments may own and/or operate USTs, this codification incorporates 
into the Code of Federal Regulations the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico's 
requirements which are being authorized concurrently by EPA under 40 
CFR part 281 and, thus, small governments are not subject to any 
additional significant or unique requirements by virtue of this 
codification.

Compliance With Executive Order 12866

    The Office of Management and Budget has exempted this rule from the 
requirements of Section 6 of Executive Order 12866.

Paperwork Reduction Act

    Under the Paperwork Reduction Act, 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq., federal 
agencies must consider the paperwork burden imposed by any information 
request contained in a proposed or final rule. This rule will not 
impose any information requirements upon the regulated community.
