40 CFR Part 55

[FRL-7437-9]


Outer Continental Shelf Air Regulations; Consistency Update for 
California

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (``EPA'').

ACTION: Proposed rule--consistency update.

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

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to update a portion of the Outer Continental 
Shelf (``OCS'') Air Regulations. Requirements applying to OCS sources 
located within 25 miles of states' seaward boundaries must be updated 
periodically to remain consistent with the requirements of the 
corresponding onshore area (``COA''), as mandated by section 328(a)(1) 
of the Clean Air Act, as amended in 1990 (``the Act''). The portion of 
the OCS air regulations that is being updated pertains to the 
requirements for OCS sources for which the Santa Barbara County Air 
Pollution Control District (Santa Barbara County APCD), South Coast Air 
Quality Management District (South Coast AQMD) and Ventura County Air 
Pollution Control District (Ventura County APCD) are the designated 
COAs. The intended effect of approving the OCS requirements for the 
above Districts is to regulate emissions from OCS sources in accordance 
with the requirements onshore. The changes to the existing requirements 
discussed below are proposed to be incorporated by reference into the 
Code of Federal Regulations and are listed in the appendix to the OCS 
air regulations.

DATES: Comments on the proposed update must be received on or before 
February 12, 2003.

ADDRESSES: Comments must be mailed (in duplicate if possible) to: EPA 
Air Docket (Air-4), Attn: Docket No. A-93-16 Section XXVII, 
Environmental Protection Agency, Air Division, Region 9, 75 Hawthorne 
St., San Francisco, CA 94105.

Docket: Supporting information used in developing the rule and copies 
of the documents EPA is proposing to incorporate by reference are 
contained in Docket No. A-93-16 Section XXVII. This docket is available

I. Background information

A. Why is EPA taking this action?

    On September 4, 1992, EPA promulgated 40 CFR part 55,\1\ which 
established requirements to control air pollution from OCS sources in 
order to attain and maintain federal and state ambient air quality 
standards and to comply with the provisions of part C of title I of the 
Act. Part 55 applies to all OCS sources offshore of the States except 
those located in the Gulf of Mexico west of 87.5 degrees longitude. 
Section 328 of the Act requires that for such sources located within 25 
miles of a state's seaward boundary, the requirements shall be the same 
as would be applicable if the sources were located in the COA. Because 
the OCS requirements are based on onshore requirements, and onshore 
requirements may change, section 328(a)(1) requires that EPA update the 
OCS requirements as necessary to maintain consistency with onshore 
requirements.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ The reader may refer to the Notice of Proposed Rulemaking, 
December 5, 1991 (56 FR 63774), and the preamble to the final rule 
promulgated September 4, 1992 (57 FR 40792) for further background 
and information on the OCS regulations.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Pursuant to Sec.  55.12 of the OCS rule, consistency reviews will 
occur (1) at least annually; (2) upon receipt of a Notice of Intent 
under Sec.  55.4; or (3) when a state or local agency submits a rule to 
EPA to be considered for incorporation by reference in part 55. This 
proposed action is being taken in response to the submittal of rules by 
three local air pollution control agencies. Public comments received in 
writing within 30 days of publication of this document will be 
considered by EPA before publishing a final rule.
    Section 328(a) of the Act requires that EPA establish requirements 
to control air pollution from OCS sources located within 25 miles of 
states' seaward boundaries that are the same as onshore requirements. 
To comply with this statutory mandate, EPA must incorporate applicable 
onshore rules into part 55 as they exist onshore. This limits EPA's 
flexibility in deciding which requirements will be incorporated into 
part 55 and prevents EPA from making substantive changes to the 
requirements it incorporates. As a result, EPA may be incorporating 
rules into part 55 that do not conform to all of EPA's state 
implementation plan (SIP) guidance or certain requirements of the Act. 
Consistency updates may result in the inclusion of state or local rules 
or regulations into part 55, even though the same rules may ultimately 
be disapproved for inclusion as part of the SIP. Inclusion in the OCS 
rule does not imply that a rule meets the requirements of the Act for 
SIP approval, nor does it imply that the rule will be approved by EPA 
for inclusion in the SIP.

II. EPA's Evaluation

A. What criteria were used to evaluate rules submitted to update 40 CFR 
part 55?

    In updating 40 CFR part 55, EPA reviewed the rules submitted for 
inclusion in part 55 to ensure that they are rationally related to the 
attainment or maintenance of federal or state ambient air quality 
standards or part C of title I of the Act, that they are not designed 
expressly to prevent exploration and development of the OCS and that 
they are applicable to OCS sources. 40 CFR 55.1. EPA has also evaluated 
the rules to ensure they are not arbitrary or capricious. 40 CFR 55.12 
(e). In addition, EPA has excluded

[[Page 1571]]

administrative or procedural rules,\2\ and requirements that regulate 
toxics which are not related to the attainment and maintenance of 
federal and state ambient air quality standards.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ Each COA which has been delegated the authority to implement 
and enforce part 55, will use its administrative and procedural 
rules as onshore. However, in those instances where EPA has not 
delegated authority to implement and enforce part 55, EPA will use 
its own administrative and procedural requirements to implement the 
substantive requirements. 40 CFR 55.14 (c)(4).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

B. What rule revisions were submitted to update 40 CFR part 55?

    1. After review of the rule submitted by Santa Barbara County APCD 
against the criteria set forth above and in 40 CFR part 55, EPA is 
proposing to make the following new rule applicable to OCS sources for 
which the Santa Barbara County APCD is designated as the COA:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
   Rule                                                         Adoption
                      Rule names                         date
------------------------------------------------------------------------
     360   Emissions of Oxide of Nitrogen from Large Water      10/17/02
            Heaters and Small Boilers........................
------------------------------------------------------------------------

    2. After review of the rules submitted by South Coast AQMD against 
the criteria set forth above and in 40 CFR part 55, EPA is proposing to 
make the following new rule applicable to OCS sources for which the 
South Coast AQMD is designated as the COA (note: no requirements that 
are not related to the attainment and maintenance of federal and state 
ambient air quality standards will be incorporated to regulate toxics):

------------------------------------------------------------------------
   Rule                                                         Adoption

    1171   Solvent Cleaning Operations.......................   08/02/02
------------------------------------------------------------------------

    3. After review of the rule submitted by Ventura County APCD 
against the criteria set forth above and in 40 CFR part 55, EPA is 
proposing to make the following rule correction for a previous 
submitted rule applicable to OCS source for which the Ventura County 
APCD is designated as the COA:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
   Rule                                                         Adoption

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

III. Administrative Requirements

A. Executive Order 12866

    The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has exempted this 
regulatory action from Executive Order 12866, Regulatory Planning and 
Review.

B. Executive Order 13045

    Executive Order 13045, entitled Protection of Children from 
Environmental Health Risks and Safety Risks (62 FR 19885, April 23, 
1997), applies to any rule that: (1) Is determined to be ``economically 
significant'' as defined under Executive Order 12866, and (2) concerns 
an environmental health or safety risk that EPA has reason to believe 
may have a disproportionate effect on children. If the regulatory 
action meets both criteria, the Agency must evaluate the environmental 
health or safety effects of the planned rule on children, and explain 
why the planned regulation is preferable to other potentially effective 
and reasonably feasible alternatives considered by the Agency.
    This rule is not subject to Executive Order 13045 because it does 
not involve decisions intended to mitigate environmental health or 
safety risks.

C. Executive Order 13175

    Executive Order 13175, entitled ``Consultation and Coordination 
with Indian Tribal Governments'' (65 FR 67249, November 6, 2000), 
requires EPA to develop an accountable process to ensure ``meaningful 
and timely input by tribal officials in the development of regulatory 
policies that have tribal implications.'' ``Policies that have tribal 
implications'' is defined in the Executive Order to include regulations 
that have ``substantial direct effects on one or more Indian tribes, on 
the relationship between the Federal government and the Indian tribes, 
or on the distribution of power and responsibilities between the 
Federal government and Indian tribes.''
    This proposed rule does not have tribal implications. It will not 
have substantial direct effects on tribal governments, 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 in Executive Order 13175. 
Thus, Executive Order 13175 does not apply to this rule. In the spirit 
of Executive Order 13175, and consistent with EPA policy to promote 
communications between EPA and tribal governments, EPA specifically 
solicits additional comment on this proposed rule from tribal 
officials.

D. Executive Order 13132

    Executive Order 13132, entitled Federalism (64 FR 43255, August 10, 
1999) revokes and replaces Executive Orders 12612, Federalism and 
12875, Enhancing the Intergovernmental Partnership. Executive Order 
13132 requires EPA to develop an accountable process to ensure 
``meaningful and timely input by State and local officials in the 
development of regulatory policies that have federalism implications.'' 
``Policies that have federalism implications'' is defined in the 
Executive Order to include regulations that 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.'' Under 
Executive Order 13132, EPA may not issue a regulation that has 
federalism implications, that imposes substantial direct compliance 
costs, and that is not required by statute, unless the Federal 
government provides the funds necessary to pay the direct compliance 
costs incurred by State and local governments, or EPA consults with 
State and local officials early in the process of developing the 
proposed regulation. EPA also may not issue a regulation that has 
federalism implications and that preempts State law unless the Agency 
consults with State and local officials early in the process of 
developing the proposed regulation.
    This proposed rule will not 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, 
because it merely acts on a state rule implementing a federal standard, 
and does not alter the relationship or the distribution of power and 
responsibilities established in the Clean Air Act. Thus, the 
requirements of section 6 of the Executive Order do not apply to this 
proposed rule.

E. Regulatory Flexibility Act, as Amended by the Small Business 
Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996 (SBREFA), 5 U.S.C. 601 et. 
seq.

    The Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA) generally requires an agency 
to prepare a regulatory flexibility analysis for any rule that will 
have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small 
entities. The RFA applies only to rules subject to notice and comment 
rulemaking requirements

[[Page 1572]]

unless the agency certifies that the rule will not have a significant 
economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. Small 
entities include small businesses, small not-for-profit enterprises, 
and small governmental jurisdictions.
    This proposed rule will not have a significant impact on a 
substantial number of small entities because consistency updates do not 
create any new requirements but simply act on requirements that the 
State is already imposing. Therefore, because the consistency update 
approval does not create any new requirements, I certify that this 
action will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial 
number of small entities.

F. 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 
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 may be significantly 
or uniquely impacted by the rule.
    EPA has determined that the proposed action 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 proposed Federal action acts on pre-
existing requirements under State or local law, and imposes no new 
requirements. Accordingly, no additional costs to State, local, or 
tribal governments, or to the private sector, result from this action.

G. National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act

    Section 12 of the National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act 
(NTTAA) of 1995 requires Federal agencies to evaluate existing 
technical standards when developing a new regulation. To comply with 
NTTAA, EPA must consider and use ``voluntary consensus standards'' 
(VCS) if available and applicable when developing programs and policies 
unless doing so would be inconsistent with applicable law or otherwise 
impractical.
    EPA believes that VCS are inapplicable to today's proposed action 
because it does not require the public to perform activities conducive 
to the use of VCS.

H. Executive Order 13211 (Energy Effects)

    This rule is not subject to Executive Order 13211, ``Actions 
Concerning Regulations That Significantly Affect Energy Supply, 
Distribution, or Use'' (66 FR 28355 (May 22, 2001)) because it is not a 
significant action under Executive Order 12866.
