The July 9, 1982 version of SCAQMD Rule 708.3 became part of the applicable SIP for the SCAQMD, including the Southeast Desert portion of Riverside County in 1983. We proposed to approve these rules and rule rescissions because we determined that they comply with the relevant CAA requirements. Our proposed action and related technical support documents contain more information on the rules and rule rescissions and our evaluation of them for compliance with CAA requirements. II. Public Comments and EPA Responses The EPA's proposed action provided a 30-day public comment period. During this period, we received no comments. III. EPA Action No comments were submitted. Therefore, as authorized in section 110(k)(3) of the Act, the EPA is taking final action to approve revisions to the MDAQMD portion of the California SIP submitted by CARB on September 23, 2022, November 30, 2022, May 11, 2023, and January 10, 2024. More specifically, the EPA is finalizing the following actions:The EPA is approving submitted MDAQMD Rule 701 because it would strengthen the SIP. The EPA is approving the following rule rescissions because the rescissions of the rules meet all relevant requirements: SCAQMD Rules 405, 409, 466, 466.1, 467, 1101, 1104, 1175, and 1176; SoCalAPCD Rules 432 and 470; and SBCAPCD Rules 432, 470, and 480; and all the SBCAPCD and SCAQMD Regulation VII rules listed in Tables 3 and 4 of this document. The EPA is taking no action on the rescissions of SoCalAPCD Rule 464 and SCAQMD Rule 464, other than to add clarifying regulatory text, because they were previously replaced in the applicable SIP by approval of SCAQMD Rule 464 and MDAQMD Rule 464, respectively. The EPA is also taking no action on the rescissions of SBCAPCD Rules 466 and 467 because they were previously removed as part of the applicable SIP and regulatory text was previously added to document their removal. IV. Incorporation by Reference In this document, the EPA is finalizing regulatory text that includes incorporation by reference. In accordance with requirements of 1 CFR 51.5, the EPA is finalizing the incorporation by reference of MDAQMD Rule 701, which establishes certain procedures and requirements for air pollution emergencies. The EPA is also finalizing regulatory text that deletes certain rules that were previously incorporated by reference from the applicable California SIP. The rules that were previously incorporated by reference are SCAQMD Rules 405, 409, 464, 466, 466.1, 467, 1101, 1104, 1175, and 1176; SoCalAPCD Rules 432, 464, and 470; and SBCAPCD Rules 432, 470, and 480 as listed in Table 2 of this document, and the air pollution emergency rules listed in Tables 3 and 4 of this document. The EPA has made, and will continue to make, these documents available through https://www.regulations.gov and at the EPA Region IX Office (please contact the person identified in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section of this preamble for more information). V. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews Under the CAA, the Administrator is required to approve a SIP submission that complies with the provisions of the Act and applicable federal regulations. 42 U.S.C. 7410(k); 40 CFR 52.02(a). Thus, in reviewing SIP submissions, the EPA's role is to approve state choices, provided that they meet the criteria of the CAA. Accordingly, this action merely approves state law as meeting federal requirements and does not impose additional requirements beyond those imposed by state law. For that reason, this action: Is not a significant regulatory action subject to review by the Office of Management and Budget under Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993); Is not subject to Executive Order 14192 (90 FR 9065, February 6, 2025) because SIP actions are exempt from review under Executive Order 12866; Does not impose an information collection burden under the provisions [[Page 617]] of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.); Is certified as not having a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities under the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.); Does not contain any unfunded mandate or significantly or uniquely affect small governments, as described in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-4); Does not have federalism implications as specified in Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999); Is not subject to Executive Order 13045 (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997) because it approves a state program; Is not a significant regulatory action subject to Executive Order 13211 (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001); and Is not subject to requirements of section 12(d) of the National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272 note) because application of those requirements would be inconsistent with the CAA. In addition, the SIP is not approved to apply on any Indian reservation land or in any other area where the EPA or an Indian Tribe has demonstrated that a Tribe has jurisdiction. In those areas of Indian country, the rule does not have Tribal implications and will not impose substantial direct costs on Tribal governments or preempt Tribal law as specified by Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000). This action is subject to the Congressional Review Act, and the EPA will submit a rule report to each House of the Congress and to the Comptroller General of the United States. This action 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 March 9, 2026. Filing a petition for reconsideration by the Administrator of this final rule does not affect the finality of this action 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).)
