New Hampshire; Revised Regulations and Source-Specific Reasonably 
Available Control Technology Plans Controlling Volatile Organic 
Compound Emissions and Emission Statement Requirements

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Direct final rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA is approving State Implementation Plan (SIP) revisions 
submitted by the State of New Hampshire. This action is being taken 
under the Clean Air Act. EPA is approving the revisions to the New 
Hampshire State Implementation Plan (SIP) submitted by the State of New 
Hampshire on December 21, 1992, July 10, 1995, June 28, 1996, October, 
24, 1996 and December 9, 1996. These SIP revisions consist of source 
specific VOC RACT determinations for L.W. Packard and Company, Textile 
Tapes Corporation, and Kalwall Corporation. They also consist of 
revisions to the State's volatile organic compound (VOC) regulations in 
Chapter Env-A 1204 (but not including section 1204.06), certain testing 
and monitoring requirements in Chapter Env-A 800, and recordkeeping and 
reporting requirements in Chapter Env-A 900, all of which require the 
implementation of

[[Page 11601]]

reasonably available control technology (RACT) for certain sources of 
volatile organic compounds (VOCs), as required by the Clean Air Act. 
These regulations are applicable in the entire State of New Hampshire 
and are required pursuant to sections 182(b)(2) and 184(b)(1)(B) of the 
Clean Air Act. EPA has evaluated the RACT plans and the revisions of 
the Clean Air Act, as amended in 1990. EPA is also finalizing a limited 
approval on section Env-A 1204.27.

DATES: This action will become effective May 11, 1998, unless EPA 
receives relevant adverse comment on the parallel notice of proposed 
rulemaking by April 9, 1998. Should the agency receive such comments, 
it will timely publish a timely document withdrawing this rule.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    Under the pre-amended Clean Air Act, ozone nonattainment areas were 
required to adopt reasonably available control technology (RACT) rules 
for sources of VOC emissions. EPA issued three sets of control 
technique guidelines (CTGs) documents, establishing a ``presumptive 
norm'' for RACT for various categories of VOC sources. The three sets 
of CTGs were (1) Group I--issued before January 1978 (15 CTGs); (2) 
Group II--issued in 1978 (9 CTGs); and (3) Group III--issued in the 
early 1980's (5 CTGs). Those sources not covered by a CTG were called 
non-CTG sources. EPA determined that the area's SIP-approved attainment 
date established which RACT rules the area needed to adopt and 
implement. Under section 172(a)(1), ozone nonattainment areas were 
generally required to attain the ozone standard by December 31, 1982. 
Those areas that submitted an attainment demonstration projecting 
attainment by that date were required to adopt RACT for sources covered 
by the Group I and II CTGs. Those areas that sought an extension of the 
attainment date under section 172(a)(2) to as late as December 31, 1987 
were required to adopt RACT for all CTG sources and for all major 
(i.e., 100 ton per year or more of VOC emissions) non-CTG sources.
    Section 182(b)(2) of the amended Act requires States to adopt RACT 
rules for all areas designated nonattainment for ozone and classified 
as moderate or above. There are three parts to the section 182(b)(2) 
RACT requirement: (1) RACT for sources covered by an existing CTG--
i.e., a CTG issued prior to the enactment of the CAAA of 1990; (2) RACT 
for sources covered by a post-enactment CTG; and (3) all major sources 
not covered by a CTG. This RACT requirement applies to nonattainment 
areas that previously were exempt from certain RACT requirements and 
requirements and requires them to ``catchup'' to those nonattainment 
areas that became subject to those requirements during an earlier 
period. In addition, it requires newly designated ozone nonattainment 
areas to adopt RACT rules consistent with those for previously 
designated nonattainment areas.
    Portions of New Hampshire are classified as marginal and serious 
nonattainment areas for ozone.1 In addition, New Hampshire 
is located in the northeast ozone transport region that was statutorily 
created by section 184 of the CAA. Section 184(b)(1)(B) of the amended 
Act requires all states in an Ozone Transport Region (OTR) to adopt the 
RACT provisions for all sources covered by a CTG document issued by EPA 
before or after enactment of the CAAA of 1990. Section 184(b)(2) 
mandates that all states in the OTR subject 50 ton per year and greater 
VOC sources to those requirements that would be applicable to major 
stationary sources in a moderate nonattainment area.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ These areas were designated as nonattainment prior to 
enactment of the amended Act. They retained their designation of 
nonattainment and were classified by operation of law pursuant to 
Sections 107(d) and 181(a) upon enactment of the amendments. See 56 
FR 56694.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    To meet the RACT catch-up requirement, New Hampshire needed to 
submit a RACT rule for an external floating roof VOC storage category. 
In addition, the major source definition for serious areas and areas 
designated as part of an OTR has been lowered under the amended Act to 
sources that emit greater than 50 tons per year of VOC. Therefore, the 
State was required to adopt RACT rules for all sources that exceed this 
cut-off. New Hampshire was also required to reduce the applicability 
level for certain coating sources from 100 tons per year of VOC to 10 
tons per year, as recommended in the CTGs. These sources include: can 
coating; paper fabric, film and foil coating; vinyl and urethane 
substrate coating; metal furniture coating; and magnet wire insulation 
coating.
    VOCs contribute to the production of ground level ozone and smog. 
New Hampshire's rules were adopted as part of an effort to achieve the 
National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) for ozone. This Final 
Rule discusses EPA's evaluation and final action for New Hampshire's 
amendments to the Part Env-A 800, 900 and 1204 regulations, and source 
specific VOC RACT Orders submitted pursuant to Env-A 
1204.27.

II. State Submittals

A. Parts Env-A 800, 900, and 1204

    On June 28, 1996, New Hampshire Air Resources Division (ARD) 
submitted a revision to its State Implementation Plan (SIP). The 
revision consists of amendments to Part Env-A 800, 900 and 1204 of the 
New Hampshire Rules Governing the Control of Air Pollution. The 
revision consists of changes made pursuant to the requirements of 
Sec. 182(b)(2) of the Act to the following New Hampshire Regulations 
for the Abatement of Air Pollution:
    Part Env-A 803: VOC testing;
    Part Env-A 804 Capture Efficiency;
    Part Env-A 901: Recordkeeping and Reporting by Sources;
    Part Env-A 1204: Stationary Sources of Volatile Organic Compounds 
(VOCs), including new sections controlling VOC emissions from the 
coating of wood furniture, burial caskets and gunstock; and the coating 
of plastic parts. In Env-A 1204.03, New Hampshire revised the 
definition of exempt VOC to include parachlorobenzotriflouride, 
perchloroethylene, acetone, and volatile methyl siloxanes.
    On November 21, 1997, New Hampshire submitted a letter to EPA 
requesting withdrawal of section Env-A 1204.06 from the SIP package 
pursuant to EPA's request. This section contains provisions for 
``equivalent substitute control techniques.'' EPA requested that New 
Hampshire withdraw this section from the SIP because it does not 
provide for EPA approval of the equivalent substitute control 
techniques chosen.
    On December 21, 1992, New Hampshire submitted a SIP revision to EPA 
consisting of the amendments to Part Env-A 800, 900 and 1204 of the New 
Hampshire Rules Governing the Control of Air Pollution. As part of this 
SIP revision, NH revised its Part Env-A 800, 900, and 1204 rules to 
comply with

[[Page 11602]]

the requirements of reasonably available control technology (RACT) 
provisions for Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs), as required by 
Section 182(b)(2) and Section 184(a) and (b) of the Clean Air Act. In 
response to these CAA requirements, New Hampshire revised its rules to 
include:
    1. The addition of an external floating roof VOC storage category.
    2. The addition of a regulation requiring RACT for non-CTG sources 
exceeding 50 tons per year.
    3. The adoption of the ``theoretical potential emissions'' 
definition used to determine RACT applicability for coating and 
printing sources.
    4. The incorporation of lower applicability cutpoints for coating 
source emissions, consistent with EPA guidance.
    5. The addition of urethane substrates in the vinyl substrate 
coating category.
    6. Revisions to the compliance schedule section of the rules to 
facilitate compliance for all applicable VOC sources by the statutory 
deadline of May, 1995.
    7. Revisions to include additional NOX and VOC 
recordkeeping and reporting requirements.
    8. Various revisions to the VOC rules to make them fully consistent 
with EPA guidance.
    In addition to the VOC regulations in Part Env-A 800, 900 and 1204, 
New Hampshire submitted source specific VOC RACT determination for L.W. 
Packard & Company on July 10, 1995 which covers processes subject to 
the miscellaneous VOC RACT provisions of Part Env-A 1204. On October 
24, 1996, New Hampshire submitted source specific VOC RACT 
determination for Kalwall Corporation in Manchester, NH which covers 
processes subject to the VOC RACT provisions of Part Env-A 1204. On 
December 9, 1996, New Hampshire submitted source specific VOC RACT 
determination for Textile Tapes in Gonic, NH.
    EPA's review of the SIP submittal indicates that New Hampshire has 
addressed the applicable RACT requirements and deficiencies in the 
existing VOC regulations that were identified by EPA in its letters of 
October 31, 1991, March 10, 1992, and June 24, 1992. New Hampshire's 
regulation and EPA's evaluation are detailed in the following 
memoranda: Technical Support Document--New Hampshire SIP Revision 
Concerning Amendments to Part Env-A 800, 900, and 1204 of the New 
Hampshire Rules Governing the Control of Air Pollution, July 7, 1993 
and Amendment to the TSD-New Hampshire VOC RACT SIP Revisions. Copies 
of these documents are available, upon request, from the EPA Regional 
Office listed in the ADDRESSES section of this document.

B. Emission Statement Requirements

    The CAA requires states to submit SIP revisions by November 15, 
1992 requiring that all sources of VOC and NOX emissions 
submit emission statements on an annual basis beginning in 1993 for the 
calendar year 1992. EPA proposed a limited approval/limited disapproval 
of the emission statement provisions in a separate Notice of Proposed 
Rulemaking (NPR) published on September 20, 1994, 59 FR 48195. In that 
NPR, EPA identified provisions in New Hampshire's regulations which 
were inconsistent with EPA guidance. New Hampshire's submittal of June 
28, 1996 addresses the deficiencies identified in the September 20, 
1994 NPR.

C. VOC RACT for L.W. Packard in Ashland

    On July 10, 1995, New Hampshire submitted a VOC RACT Order for L.W. 
Packard as a SIP revision. L.W. Packard and Company of manufactures 
fine woolen cloth at its Ashland, New Hampshire facility. VOC are 
emitted primarily from the carding oil process and the wet finishing 
and dyeing process. The coating processes are subject to section Env-A 
1024.27, ``Emission Standards and Control Options for Miscellaneous and 
Multicategory Stationary VOC Sources.'' Order number ARD-94-001 defines 
VOC RACT for L.W. Packard's processes. The Order requires L.W. Packard 
to use a low VOC carding oil with a maximum VOC content of 0.05 lbs 
VOC/gallon. The Order also limits formic acid emissions, and requires 
L.W. Packard to install at least one pressurized dye vessel. The Order 
also sets recordkeeping and reporting requirements. New Hampshire held 
a public hearing on April 11, 1995. The final Order was issued on May 
5, 1995.

D. VOC RACT for Textile Tapes Corporation in Gonic

    On December 9, 1996, New Hampshire submitted a VOC RACT Order for 
Textile Tapes Corporation in Gonic. Textile Tapes applies surface 
coatings on fabrics using the knife coating process. The facility 
operates three coating lines. Order number ARD-96-001 defines VOC RACT 
for all coatings at Textile Tapes except for the ``5000 series 
adhesive'' to comply with the provisions of Part Env-A 1204.10, 
Applicability Criteria and Compliance Standards for Coating of Paper, 
Fabric, Film and Foil Substrates which limits the emission rate of VOC 
at all times to 2.9 lb VOC/gallon of coating, as applied, excluding 
water and exempt VOC. For the coating described as ``5000 series 
adhesive,'' the Order requires the facility to increase the solids 
content from 33% by weight to 40% by weight and to limit the VOC 
emission rate to 4.7 lb VOC/gallon of coating, as applied, less water 
and exempt compounds. New Hampshire held a public hearing on February 
16, 1996. The final Order was issued on October 4, 1996.

E. VOC RACT for Kalwall in Manchester

    On October 24, 1996, New Hampshire submitted a VOC RACT Order for 
Kalwall Corporation in Manchester. Kalwall Corporation of Manchester, 
New Hampshire produces building panels used in architectural and light 
construction applications. Coatings containing VOC are applied to the 
panels. Order number ARD-95-010 defines VOC RACT for Kalwall's coating 
processes. The order sets VOC emission limits for the three coating 
process and requires Kalwall to improve transfer efficiency of one 
coating process. The Order also sets recordkeeping and reporting 
requirements. New Hampshire held a public hearing on February 16, 1996. 
The final Order was issued on September 10, 1996.

F. Env-A 1204.27 Applicability Criteria and Compliance Options for 
Miscellaneous and Multicategory Stationary VOC Sources

    For major non-CTG sources of VOCs, the addition of this section 
sets forth both presumptive RACT norms and processes by which RACT can 
be established for those sources that cannot meet the presumptive 
norms. However, Section 182(b)(2) of the Clean Air Act requires that a 
SIP revision be submitted by November 15, 1992 including ``provisions 
to require the implementation of reasonably available control 
technology.'' In addition, the necessary SIP revision is required to 
``provide for the implementation of the required measures as 
expeditiously as practicable but no later than May 31, 1995.'' Since 
the first four control options of Env-A 1204.27(d) define presumptive 
norms for RACT, and are consistent with EPA's Model VOC RACT Rules for 
other facilities that emit volatile organic compounds, that portion of 
the regulation meets the requirements of Section 182 and is approvable. 
However, since control option 5 describes a process by which RACT can 
be defined but does not specifically define RACT for each source to 
which such options apply, that portion of the rule is not fully

[[Page 11603]]

approvable. Therefore, EPA is only granting a limited approval of Env-A 
1204.27. To receive full approval, New Hampshire will need to define 
explicitly, and have approved by EPA, RACT for all of those sources 
which do not conform to the presumptive RACT options outlined in the 
regulation. New Hampshire will need to define RACT for the following 
sources before EPA will grant full approval: Harvard Industries, New 
Filcas of America Inc., Sturm Ruger Inc., and Anheuser Busch.

III. Final Action

    EPA review of the regulations in Part Env-A 800, 900, and 1204 
(except for Env-A 1204.27 and 1204.06) indicates that New Hampshire has 
sufficiently defined the VOC RACT and emission statement requirements. 
EPA review of the miscellaneous VOC RACT for L.W. Packard, Textile 
Tapes Corporation, and Kalwall Corporation in Manchester, indicates 
that New Hampshire has sufficiently defined the VOC RACT requirements 
for these facilities. Therefore EPA is approving Part Env-A 800, 900, 
and 1204 (except 1204.06), and the source specific VOC RACT Order #ARD-
95-010 for Kalwall in Manchester, VOC RACT Order #ARD-96-001 for 
Textile Tapes Corporation, and VOC RACT Order #ARD-94-001 for L.W. 
Packard. As noted above, New Hampshire withdrew Env-A 1204.06 from its 
SIP submittal. Therefore, this action does not approve that section as 
part of the SIP.
    EPA has evaluated New Hampshire's submittal for consistency with 
the Act, EPA regulations, and EPA policy. EPA has determined that the 
changes made to Part Env-A 800, Part Env-A 900 and Part Env-A 1204, 
except for Env-A 1204.06 and 1204.27 of New Hampshire's Regulations 
Controlling Air Pollution meet the requirements of the Act. Therefore, 
EPA is approving under Section 110(k)(3) those changes. However, EPA 
has determined that Env-A 1204.27 does not meet all of the Act's 
requirements for the reasons described above. EPA believes that 
approval of the submitted rule will strengthen the SIP but because of 
the above-mentioned deficiencies, the rule does not meet the 
requirements of Section 182(b)(2) of the CAA. In light of such 
deficiencies, EPA cannot grant full approval of this rule under section 
110(k)(3) and Part D. However, EPA may grant a limited approval of the 
submitted rule under Section 110(k)(3) and EPA's authority pursuant to 
Section 301(a) to adopt regulations necessary to further air quality by 
strengthening the SIP. The approval is limited due to the fact that 
this rule does not meet the requirement of Section 182(b)(2) because of 
the deficiencies noted above. Thus, in order to strengthen the SIP, EPA 
is taking action on New Hampshire's submitted Section Env-A 1204.27 as 
a limited approval under Section 110(k)(3) and 301(a) of the CAA.
    EPA's evaluation of all the submitted regulations is detailed in 
the Technical Support Document. Copies of that document are available, 
upon request, from the EPA Regional Office listed in the ADDRESSES 
section of this action. Interested parties may participate in the 
Federal rulemaking procedure by submitting written comments to the EPA 
Regional office listed in the ADDRESSES section of this action.
    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, EPA is proposing to approve the SIP revision 
should adverse or critical comments be filed. This action will be 
effective May 11, 1998, without further notice, unless, the agency 
receives relevant adverse comments by April 9, 1998, or the parallel 
notice of proposed rulemaking.
    If the EPA receives such comments, it will publish a document 
informing the public that this rule did not take effect. All public 
comments received will then 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 on May 11, 1998.
    Nothing in this action should be construed as permitting or 
allowing or establishing a precedent for any future request for 
revision to any State implementation plan. Each request for revision to 
the State implementation plan shall be considered separately in light 
of specific technical, economic, and environmental factors and in 
relation to relevant statutory and regulatory requirements.

IV. Administrative Requirements

A. 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 review under Executive Order 
12866.

B. 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 
Clean Air 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 impose any new requirements, the 
Administrator certifies that it does not have a significant impact on 
any small entities affected. Moreover, due to the nature of the 
Federal-State relationship under the CAA, preparation of a flexibility 
analysis would constitute Federal inquiry into the economic 
reasonableness of state action. The Clean Air Act forbids EPA to base 
its actions concerning SIPs on such grounds. Union Electric Co. v. U.S. 
EPA, 427 U.S. 246, 255-66 (1976); 42 U.S.C. 7410(a)(2).

C. Unfunded Mandates

    Under Sections 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 
costs to State, local, or tribal governments in the aggregate; or to 
the 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.
    EPA has determined that the approval action promulgated does not 
include a Federal mandate that may result in estimated 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

[[Page 11604]]

no new requirements. Accordingly, no additional costs to State, local, 
or tribal governments, or to the private sector, result from this 
action.

D. 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).

E. Petitions for Judicial Review

    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 May 11, 1998. 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).) EPA encourages 
interested parties to comment in response to the proposed rule rather 
than petition for judicial review, unless the objection arises after 
the comment period allowed for in the proposal.
