40 CFR Parts 61 and 63

[FRL-6541-2]


Approval of the Clean Air Act, Section 112(l), Delegation of 
Authority to Three Local Air Agencies in Washington; Amendment

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Final rule; amendment.

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

SUMMARY: This action provides an amendment to Federal Register actions 
published on December 1, 1998, and April 22, 1999, that granted Clean 
Air Act, Section 112(l), delegation of authority for three local air 
agencies in Washington to implement and enforce specific federal 
National Emission Standards for the Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) 
regulations which have been adopted into local law. The three local air 
agencies are: the Northwest Air Pollution Authority, the Puget Sound 
Clean Air Agency, and the Southwest Air Pollution Control Agency. This 
action amends the tables outlining these three local agencies' current 
delegation status.

DATES: This amendment is effective on February 28, 2000.

ADDRESSES: Copies of the requests for delegation and other supporting 
documentation are available for public inspection at the following 
location: U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region X, Office of Air 
Quality (OAQ-107), 1200 Sixth Avenue, Seattle, WA, 98101.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Catherine Woo, US EPA, Region X (OAQ-
107), 1200 Sixth Avenue, Seattle, WA, 98101, (206) 553-1814.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I  Administrative Requirements

    Under Executive Order 12866, Regulatory Planning and Review (58 FR 
51735, October 4, 1993), this action is not a ``significant regulatory 
action'' and is therefore, not subject to review by the Office of 
Management and Budget. In addition, this action does not impose any 
enforceable duty, contain any unfunded mandate, or impose any 
significant or unique impact on small governments as described in the 
Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (Public Law 104-4). This rule also 
does not require prior consultation with state, local, and tribal 
government officials as specified by Executive Order 12875 (58 FR 
58093, October 28, 1993) or Executive Order 13084 (63 FR 27655, May 10, 
1998), or involve special consideration of environmental justice 
related issues as required by Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, 
February 16, 1994). Because this action is not subject to notice-and-
comment requirements under the Administrative Procedure Act or any 
other statute, it is not subject to the regulatory flexibility 
provisions of the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.). 
This rule also is not subject to Executive Order 13045 (62 FR 19885, 
April 23, 1997), entitled ``Protection of Children from Environmental 
Health Risks and Safety Risks,'' because 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 
rule is not subject to Executive Order 13045 because it does not 
establish an environmental standard intended to mitigate health or 
safety risks.
    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 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. This rule is not a 
``major rule'' as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2).
    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 April 28, 2000. 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)).

II Clarification

What Action Is EPA Taking Today?

    EPA is publishing this notice to inform the public that EPA has 
approved the Washington Department of Ecology's (Ecology) updated 
delegation requests on behalf of the Northwest Air Pollution Authority 
(NWAPA), the Puget Sound Clean Air Agency (Puget Sound Clean Air),\1\ 
and the Southwest Air Pollution Control Agency (SWAPCA), to implement 
certain 40 CFR parts 61 and 63 National Emission Standards for 
Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP). This action also provides an 
amendment to Federal Register actions published on December 1, 1998 
(see 63 FR 66054) and April 22, 1999 (see 64 FR 19719), that granted 
Clean Air Act, Section 112(l), delegation of authority for these three 
local air agencies in Washington to implement and enforce specific 40 
CFR parts 61 and 63 federal NESHAP regulations which have been adopted 
into local law. Specifically, this action amends 40 CFR 61.04 and 63.99 
by revising the tables outlining these three local agencies' current 
delegation status.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ PSCAA was formerly known as the Puget Sound Air Pollution 
Control Agency (PSAPCA). All previous Federal Register rules 
regarding this agency have used the PSAPCA name.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Which 40 CFR Parts 61 and 63 Subparts Are Now Delegated?

    With this updated delegation, NWAPA, Puget Sound Clean Air, and 
SWAPCA now have the authority to implement and enforce 40 CFR parts 61 
and 63 NESHAPs in effect as of July 1, 1999 (NWAPA and Puget Sound 
Clean Air), or August 1, 1998 (SWAPCA). This update includes any 
revisions to previously delegated 40 CFR parts 61 and 63 standards, and 
any new NESHAPs. At the end of this rule is an updated delegation table 
reflecting this approval and identifying the delegated standards. 
Please note that EPA has withheld delegation of several subparts as 
explained below.

Which Requested Subparts Did EPA Not Delegate to These Three Agencies?

    EPA decided not to delegate to these three agencies any 40 CFR part 
61 subparts pertaining to radon or radionuclides. Typically, EPA 
delegates all standards adopted (and requested) by an air agency and in 
effect as of a certain date, regardless of whether or not there are any 
applicable sources within that agency's jurisdiction. As an exception, 
EPA decided not to delegate any 40 CFR part 61 NESHAPs pertaining to 
radon or radionuclides (subparts B, H, I, K, Q, R, T, and W). EPA 
determined that it is not necessary to delegate these standards to 
NWAPA, Puget Sound Clean Air, and SWAPCA for the following reasons: (1) 
There are no radon sources in any of these three locals' jurisdictions 
and only one radionuclide source, as explained below; (2) It is highly 
unlikely that any

[[Page 10392]]

new radon or radionuclide sources will emerge; and (3) The Washington 
Department of Health has the expertise and authority to implement 
radionuclide standards (subparts H and I) for the State of Washington. 
For the one radionuclide source within Puget Sound Clean Air's 
jurisdiction, the agency currently has a Memorandum of Understanding 
for the Washington Department of Health to regulate that facility.
    EPA also did not delegate 40 CFR part 63, subpart LL (Primary 
Aluminum) and subpart S (Pulp & Paper), as it pertains to kraft and 
sulfite pulping mills. EPA cannot delegate all or part of these 
subparts, respectively, to these three locals because Ecology retains 
the sole authority for regulating these particular industries in the 
State of Washington. The Revised Code of Washington (RCW) 70.94.395 
gives Ecology the authority to regulate a particular class of air 
contaminant sources on a state-wide basis. Ecology has enacted that 
authority in the Washington Administrative Code Chapters 173-405-012, 
173-410-012, and 173-415-012 to regulate Kraft Pulping Mills, Sulfite 
Pulping Mills and Primary Aluminum Plants, respectively, on a state-
wide basis. Because of these regulations, NWAPA, Puget Sound Clean Air, 
and SWAPCA cannot regulate primary aluminum facilities and kraft and 
sulfite pulping mills. Therefore, EPA is unable to delegate 40 CFR part 
63, subpart LL (Primary Aluminum), and part of subpart S (Pulp & 
Paper). Since 40 CFR part 63, subpart S is applicable to more 
facilities and processes than kraft and sulfite pulping mills, EPA did 
delegate subpart S as it applies to all applicable facilities, as 
defined in 40 CFR 63.440, except kraft and sulfite pulping mills. 
Please note that EPA had originally delegated both subpart S and LL to 
Puget Sound Clean Air in a letter dated March 19, 1999, granting 
updated delegation (see 64 FR 19719, April 22, 1999), but this current 
updated delegation now supercedes the March 19, 1999, delegation.

What Is the Delegation Process to Local Agencies in Washington?

    Local agencies in Washington submit delegation requests to Ecology 
and ask that Ecology forward those requests to EPA. Consistent with 
Ecology's interpretation of RCW 70.94.860, Ecology must first accept 
delegation of a program on behalf of the local agency and then 
redelegate the program to that agency. Ecology's Delegation Orders 
outline this redelegation process for each delegation, and are signed 
by both Ecology and the local agency. As described in the orders, the 
effective date of the orders is the same as the effective date of EPA's 
delegation action. Therefore, the delegation to local agencies via 
Ecology causes no delay.

When Did These Agencies Previously Receive Delegation?

    On December 1, 1998, EPA promulgated direct final approval of 
Ecology's request, on behalf of NWAPA, Puget Sound Clean Air, and 
SWAPCA for program approval and delegation of authority to implement 
and enforce specific 40 CFR parts 61 and 63 federal NESHAP regulations 
which have been adopted into local law (as they apply to both part 70 
and non-part 70 sources). That delegation was effective on February 1, 
1999. Additionally, on April 22, 1999, EPA published an amendment to 
the December 1, 1998, direct final rule. This amendment revised Puget 
Sound Clean Air's current delegation status based on a delegation 
update that was effective on March 29, 1999. Since the February 1, 
1999, effective date of the program approval and delegation for NWAPA 
and SWAPCA and since the March 29, 1999, effective date for the updated 
delegation for Puget Sound Clean Air, Ecology has submitted updated 
delegation requests on behalf of each of these three agencies.

When Did Ecology Submit the Updated Delegation Requests on Behalf of 
NWAPA, Puget Sound Clean Air and SWAPCA?

    On November 24, 1999, Ecology submitted a request on behalf of 
NWAPA for updated delegation of those NESHAPs in 40 CFR Parts 61 and 63 
in effect on July 1, 1999. These new and revised standards have been 
adopted unchanged into NWAPA Regulation Section 104.2 (as amended on 
November 12, 1999). In a letter dated November 8, 1999, Ecology 
submitted a request on behalf of Puget Sound Clean Air for updated 
delegation of those NESHAPs in 40 CFR parts 61 and 63 in effect on July 
1, 1999. These new and revised standards have been adopted unchanged 
into PSCAA Regulation III, Section 2.02 (as amended on September 9, 
1999). Ecology also submitted a request dated November 4, 1999, on 
behalf of SWAPCA for updated delegation of those NESHAPs in 40 CFR 
parts 61 and 63 in effect on August 1, 1998. These new and revised 
standards have been adopted unchanged into SWAPCA 400-075 (as amended 
on April 11, 1999).
    Ecology also submitted copies of its Delegation Orders for each 
local agency for this updated delegation. Ecology signed the orders for 
Puget Sound Clean Air and SWAPCA on November 18, 1999. Puget Sound 
Clean Air signed the orders on October 27, 1999, while SWAPCA signed 
them on October 20, 1999. Ecology signed the orders for NWAPA on 
November 23, 1999, and NWAPA signed them on November 19, 1999.

When Did EPA Approve the Updated Delegation Request?

    Consistent with the approved mechanism for streamlined delegation 
(see page 66057, 63 FR 66054, December 1, 1998) and with Ecology's 
interpretation of RCW 70.94.860, EPA granted these updated delegation 
requests to Ecology for purposes of redelegating to NWAPA, Puget Sound 
Clean Air, and SWAPCA, in a letter to Ecology dated January 25, 2000. 
The effective date of that letter and the updated delegation was 
February 4, 2000. As described in Ecology's delegation orders, the 
effective date of the redelegation to the three locals is the same as 
the effective date of the updated delegation. Therefore, the delegation 
to these agencies via Ecology caused no delay in this delegation to 
NWAPA, Puget Sound Clean Air, and SWAPCA.

Where Should Sources Send Notifications and Reports?

    NWAPA, Puget Sound Clean Air, and SWAPCA are now the primary point 
of contact with respect to these delegated NESHAPs. Pursuant to 40 CFR 
63.9(a)(4)(ii) and 63.10(a)(4)(ii), EPA waived the requirement that 
notifications and reports for delegated standards be submitted to EPA 
in addition to these agencies. Therefore, sources within NWAPA, Puget 
Sound Clean Air, or SWAPCA's jurisdiction should send notifications and 
reports for delegated NESHAPs directly to NWAPA, Puget Sound Clean Air, 
or SWAPCA, and do not need to send a copy to EPA.

How Does This Delegation Affect Facilities in Indian Country?

    This updated delegation for NWAPA, Puget Sound Clean Air, and 
SWAPCA to implement and enforce NESHAPs does not extend to sources or 
activities located in Indian country, as defined in 18 U.S.C. 1151, 
except for those non-trust lands within the boundaries of the Puyallup 
Indian Reservation, also known as the 1873 Survey Area. Under the 
Puyallup Tribe of Indians Settlement Act of 1989, 25 U.S.C. 1773, 
Congress explicitly provided state and local agencies, such as Puget 
Sound Clean Air, authority over activities on non-trust lands within 
the 1873 Survey Area. Therefore, Puget Sound Clean Air will implement 
and enforce the

[[Page 10393]]

NESHAPs on these non-trust lands within the 1873 Survey Area. EPA will 
continue to implement the NESHAPs in all other Indian country, 
consistent with previous federal program approvals or delegations, 
because NWAPA, Puget Sound Clean Air, and SWAPCA do not have authority 
over sources and activities located within the exterior boundaries of 
Indian reservations and other areas in Indian country.
