Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans; Texas; 
Electric Generating Facilities; and Major Stationary Sources of 
Nitrogen Oxides for the Dallas/Fort Worth Ozone Nonattainment Area

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The EPA is approving revisions to the Texas State 
Implementation Plan (SIP). The revisions concern two separate actions. 
First, we are approving revisions to the Texas Nitrogen Oxides 
(NOX) rules for electric generating facilities in East and 
Central Texas. These new limits for electric generating facilities in 
East and Central Texas will contribute to attainment of the 1-hour 
ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) in the Houston/
Galveston (H/GA), Dallas/Fort Worth (D/FW), and Beaumont/Port Arthur 
(B/PA) 1-hour ozone nonattainment areas. They will also contribute to 
continued maintenance of the standard in the eastern half of Texas and 
will strengthen the existing Texas SIP. Second, we are approving 
revisions to the Texas NOX rules for major stationary 
sources in the D/FW 1-hour ozone nonattainment area. These new limits 
for stationary sources will contribute to attainment of the 1-hour 
ozone standard in the D/FW nonattainment area. The EPA is approving 
these revisions to regulate emissions of NOX as meeting the 
requirements of the Federal Clean Air Act (the Act).

EFFECTIVE DATE: This rule is effective on April 16, 2001.

ADDRESSES: Copies of documents relevant to this action are available 
for public inspection during normal business hours at the following 
locations. Anyone wanting to examine these documents should make an 
appointment with the appropriate office at least two working days in

    Throughout this document ``we,'' ``us,'' and ``our'' means EPA.

1. What Are We Approving?

    On October 31, 2000, the EPA proposed to approve three revisions to 
the Texas SIP rules for the control of air pollution from nitrogen 
compounds, submitted by the State on April 30, 2000 (65 FR 64914): (1) 
Revisions to NOX rules for electric generating facilities in 
East and Central Texas; (2) revisions to NOX rules for major 
stationary sources in the D/FW 1-hour ozone nonattainment area; and (3) 
revisions to NOX rules for cement kilns in East and Central 
Texas. Today, we are approving the revisions to the NOX 
rules for electric generating facilities in East and Central Texas and 
the revisions to the NOX rules for major stationary sources 
in the D/FW area as revisions to the Texas NOX SIP. We are 
finalizing our approval at this time on these two rule revisions 
because we received no comments on them during the public comment 
period. We are not taking action at this time on the NOX 
rules for cement kilns in East and Central Texas because we did receive 
comments on them. We will address these comments in a separate 
rulemaking.
    Specifically, we are approving the following rule revisions with 
regards to utility electric generating facilities in East and Central 
Texas: New sections 117.131 concerning Applicability, 117.133 
concerning Exemptions, 117.134 concerning Gas Fired Steam Generation, 
117.135 concerning Emission Specification, 117.138 concerning System 
Cap, 117.141 concerning Initial Demonstration of Compliance, 117.143 
concerning Continuous Demonstration of Compliance, 117.145 concerning 
Final Control Plan Procedures, 117.147 concerning Revision of Final 
Control

[[Page 15196]]

Plan, 117.149 concerning Notification, Recordkeeping, and Reporting 
Requirements, 117.512 concerning Compliance Schedule for Utility 
Electric Generation in East and Central Texas; and a revision to the 
existing SIP-approved section 117.10 concerning Definitions. We are 
approving these rule revisions under part D of the Act because Texas is 
relying on these NOX reductions to demonstrate attainment of 
the 1-hour ozone standard in the H/GA, B/PA, and D/FW 1-hour ozone 
nonattainment areas in the State of Texas. We are also approving these 
rule revisions under sections 110 and 116 of the Act because the State 
is relying upon the NOX reductions to show continued 
maintenance of the standard in the eastern half of the State and they 
strengthen the existing Texas SIP. With regard to NOX 
control measures for major stationary sources in the D/FW area, we are 
approving: Revised sections 117.104 concerning Gas-Fired Steam 
Generation, 117.106 concerning Emission Specifications for Attainment 
Demonstrations, 117.108 concerning System Cap, 117.115 concerning Final 
Control Procedures for Reasonably Available Control Technologies, 
117.116 concerning Final Control Plan Procedures for Attainment 
Demonstration Emission Specifications, 117.205 concerning Emission 
Specifications for Reasonably Available Control Technology by removing 
comments from the ``explanation'' field, 117.206 concerning Emission 
Specifications for Attainment Demonstrations, 117.216 concerning Final 
Control Plan Procedures for Attainment Demonstration Emission 
Specifications, 117.223 concerning Source Cap by correcting an 
inadvertent mistake made in the previous codification of the 
``explanation'' field and correcting the reference from 117.223 (1)(B) 
to 117.223 (b)(1)(B), 117.510 concerning Compliance Schedule for 
Utility Electric Generation in Ozone Nonattainment Areas, 117.520 
concerning Compliance Schedule for Industrial, Commercial, and 
Institutional Combustion Sources in Ozone Nonattainment Areas, and 
117.570 concerning Trading; and the repeal of existing SIP-approved 
sections 117.109 and 117.601 for the nonattainment areas. We are 
approving these D/FW NOX point source rule revisions under 
part D of the Act because Texas is relying on these NOX 
control measures for major stationary sources in the D/FW area to 
demonstrate attainment of the 1-hour ozone standard in the D/FW ozone 
nonattainment area.

2. What Does the SIP Revision for Electric Generating Facilities in 
East and Central Texas Say?

    This revision requires reductions of NOX from electric 
utility power boilers and gas turbines in East and Central Texas. The 
following two tables contain a summary of the April 30, 2000, SIP 
revision for electric generating facilities and gas turbines in East 
and Central Texas.

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

    We are approving the NOX emission specifications and 
compliance dates for electric generating facilities in East and Central 
Texas as a part of the Texas 1-hour ozone SIP under part D of the Act 
because the State is relying on the NOX control measures to 
demonstrate attainment of the 1-hour ozone standard in the H/GA, B/PA, 
and D/FW ozone nonattainment areas in the State of Texas. We are also 
approving these rules under sections 110 and 116 because they 
contribute to continued maintenance of the standard in the eastern half 
of the State of Texas and they strengthen the existing Texas SIP.

3. What Does the SIP Revision for Major Stationary Sources in the D/FW 
Area Say?

    This revision requires reductions in emissions of NOX 
from major stationary sources operating in the D/FW ozone nonattainment 
area. The following three tables contain a summary of the April 30, 
2000, SIP revision for major stationary sources operating in the D/FW 
ozone nonattainment area.

4. What Are NOX?

    Nitrogen oxides belong to the group of criteria air pollutants. 
NOX results from burning fuels, including gasoline and coal. 
Nitrogen oxides react with volatile organic compounds (VOC) to form 
ozone or smog, and are also major components of acid rain.

5. What Is a Nonattainment Area?

    A nonattainment area is a geographic area in which the level of a 
criteria air pollutant is higher than the level allowed by Federal 
standards. A single geographic area may have acceptable levels of one 
criteria air pollutant but unacceptable levels of one or more other 
criteria air pollutants; thus, a geographic area can be attainment for 
one criteria pollutant and nonattainment for another criteria pollutant 
at the same time.

6. What Are Definitions of Major Sources for NOX?

    Section 302 of the Act generally defines ``major stationary 
source'' as a facility or source of air pollution which emits, when 
uncontrolled, 100 tons per year (tpy) or more of air pollution. This 
general definition applies unless another specific provision of the Act 
explicitly defines major source differently. Therefore, for 
NOX, a major source is one which emits, when uncontrolled, 
100 tpy or more of NOX in marginal and moderate areas. The 
B/PA area is a moderate ozone nonattainment area, so the major source 
size for the B/PA area is 100 tpy or more, when uncontrolled. According 
to sections 182(c) and 182(f) of the Act, a major source in a serious 
nonattainment area is a source that emits, when uncontrolled, 50 tpy or 
more of NOX. The D/FW area is a serious ozone nonattainment 
area, so the major source size for D/FW is 50 tpy or more, when 
uncontrolled.
    According to section 182(d) and 182(f)of the Act, a major source in 
a severe nonattainment area is a source that emits, when uncontrolled, 
25 tpy or more of NOX. The H/GA area is a severe ozone 
nonattainment area, so the major source size for the H/GA area is 25 
tpy or more, when uncontrolled.

7. What Is a State Implementation Plan?

    Section 110 of the Act requires States to develop air pollution 
regulations and control strategies to ensure that State air quality 
meets the NAAQS that EPA has established. Under section 109 of the Act, 
EPA established the NAAQS to protect public health. The NAAQS address 
six criteria pollutants. These criteria pollutants are: Carbon 
monoxide, nitrogen dioxide, ozone, lead, particulate matter, and sulfur 
dioxide.
    Each State submits these regulations and control strategies to us 
for approval and incorporation into the federally enforceable SIP. 
These SIPs can be extensive, containing State regulations or other 
enforceable documents and supporting information such as emission 
inventories, monitoring networks, and modeling demonstrations.

8. What Is the Federal Approval Process for a SIP?

    When a State wants to incorporate its regulations into the 
federally enforceable SIP, the State must formally adopt the 
regulations and control strategies consistent with State and Federal 
requirements. This process includes a public notice, a public hearing, 
a public comment period, and a formal adoption by a state-authorized 
rulemaking body.
    Once a State adopts a rule, regulation, or control strategy, the 
State may submit the adopted provisions to us and request that we 
include these provisions in the federally enforceable SIP. We must then 
decide on an appropriate Federal action, provide public notice on this 
action, and seek additional public comment regarding this action. If we 
receive adverse comments, we must address them prior to a final action.
    Under section 110 of the Act, when we approve all State regulations 
and supporting information, those State regulations and supporting 
information become a part of the federally approved SIP. You can find 
records of these SIP actions in the Code of Federal Regulations at 
Title 40, part 52, entitled ``Approval and Promulgation of

[[Page 15198]]

Implementation Plans.'' The actual State regulations that we approved 
are not reproduced in their entirety in the CFR but are ``incorporated 
by reference,'' which means that we have approved a given State 
regulation with a specific effective date.

9. What Does Federal Approval of a SIP Mean to Me?

    A State may enforce State regulations before and after we 
incorporate those regulations into a federally approved SIP. After we 
incorporate those regulations into a federally approved SIP, both EPA 
and the public may also take enforcement action in federal courts 
against violators of these regulations.

10. What Areas in Texas Will This Action Affect?

    The following table contains lists of affected counties and the 
revisions we are approving.

Texas NOX rules to determine if and how the actions stated 
in this document will affect you.

II. Final Action

    Pursuant to sections 110 and 116 and part D of the Act, we are 
finalizing the approval of revisions to Texas Rule 30 TAC, Chapter 117, 
regulations for the control of air pollution from nitrogen compounds, 
as a revision to the Texas NOX SIP. This includes the final 
approval of revisions to the Texas NOX rules for electric 
generating facilities in East and Central Texas, and the final approval 
of revisions to the Texas NOX rules for major stationary 
sources in the D/FW 1-hour ozone nonattainment area. Collectively, 
these measures will reduce ozone concentrations in the H/GA, D/FW, and 
B/PA ozone nonattainment areas.

III. Administrative Requirements

    Under Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993), this 
action is not a ``significant regulatory action'' and therefore is not 
subject to review by the Office of Management and Budget. This action 
merely approves State law as meeting Federal requirements and imposes 
no additional requirements beyond those imposed by State law. 
Accordingly, the Administrator certifies that this rule will not have a 
significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities 
under the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.). Because 
this rule approves pre-existing requirements under State law and does 
not impose any additional enforceable duty beyond that required by 
State law, it does not contain any unfunded mandate or significantly or 
uniquely affect small governments, as described in the Unfunded 
Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (Public Law 104-4). This rule also does not 
have a substantial direct effect on one or more Indian tribes, on the 
relationship between the Federal Government and Indian tribes, or on 
the distribution of power and responsibilities between the Federal 
Government and Indian tribes, as specified by Executive Order 13175 (65 
FR 67249, November 9, 2000), nor will it 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 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999), 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. This rule also is not subject 
to Executive Order 13045 (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997), because it is 
not economically significant.
    In reviewing SIP submissions, EPA's role is to approve State 
choices, provided that they meet the criteria of the Act. In this 
context, in the absence of a prior existing requirement for the State 
to use voluntary consensus standards (VCS), EPA has no authority to 
disapprove a SIP submission for failure to use VCS. It would thus be 
inconsistent with applicable law for EPA, when it reviews a SIP 
submission, to use VCS in place of a SIP submission that otherwise 
satisfies the provisions of the Act. Thus, the requirements of section 
12(d) of the National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 
(15 U.S.C. 272 note) do not apply. As required by section 3 of 
Executive Order 12988 (61 FR 4729, February 7, 1996), in issuing this 
rule, EPA has taken the necessary steps to eliminate drafting errors 
and ambiguity, minimize potential litigation, and provide a clear legal 
standard for affected conduct. The EPA has complied with Executive 
Order 12630 (53 FR 8859, March 15, 1988) by examining the takings 
implications of the rule in accordance with the ``Attorney General's 
Supplemental Guidelines for the Evaluation of Risk and Avoidance of 
Unanticipated Takings'' issued under the executive order. This rule 
does not impose an information collection burden under the provisions 
of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.).
    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 cannot 
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 will be effective April 16, 2001.
    Under section 307(b)(1) of the Act, petitions for judicial review 
of this action must be filed in the United States

[[Page 15199]]

Court of Appeals for the appropriate circuit by May 15, 2001. 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) of the Act.
