Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans; State of
Tennessee: Prevention of Significant Deterioration and Nonattainment
New Source Review Rules: Nitrogen Oxides as a Precursor to Ozone
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve changes to the Tennessee State
Implementation Plan (SIP), submitted by the Tennessee Department of
Environment and Conservation (TDEC) through the Division of Air
Pollution Control to EPA on May 28, 2009. The proposed SIP revision
modifies Tennessee's New Source Review (NSR) Prevention of Significant
Deterioration (PSD) and Nonattainment New Source Review (NNSR)
programs. Tennessee's May 28, 2009, SIP revision makes several changes
for which EPA is proposing approval in this rulemaking. First, the
proposed revision addresses requirements promulgated in the 1997 8-Hour
Ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) plementation Rule
NSR Update Phase II (hereafter referred to as the ``Ozone
Implementation NSR Update'' or ``Phase II Rule''). Second, the May 28,
2009, SIP revision includes updates to Tennessee's PSD and NNSR
permitting regulations regarding the addition of clean coal technology
(CCT) requirements. Lastly, the SIP revision includes clarifying
changes and corrections to portions of the Tennessee NSR rule. All
changes in the proposed SIP revision are necessary to comply with
Federal regulations related to Tennessee's NSR permitting program. EPA
is proposing approval of the May 28, 2009, proposed SIP revision
because the Agency has preliminarily determined that the changes are in
accordance with the Clean Air Act (CAA or Act) and EPA regulations
regarding NSR permitting.

I. What action is EPA proposing?
On May 28, 2009, TDEC submitted a revision to EPA for approval into
the Tennessee SIP to adopt Federal requirements for NSR permitting.\1\
Tennessee's SIP revision makes changes to Tennessee's Air Quality
Regulations, Chapter 1200-03-09--Construction and Operating Permits,
Rule Number .01--Construction Permit, .02--Operating Permits, and .03--
General Provisions to adopt PSD and NNSR requirements related to the
implementation of the Phase II Rule.\2\ First, the proposed revision
addresses requirements promulgated in the Phase II Rule. In summary,
the May 28, 2009, SIP revision addresses the Ozone Implementation NSR
Update requirements for Tennessee to: (1) Specifically recognize that
nitrogen oxides (NOX) emissions are ozone precursors; (2)
adopt NNSR provisions for major stationary source thresholds for
sources in certain classes of nonattainment areas for 8-hour ozone,
carbon monoxide and particulate matter with a nominal aerodynamic
diameter less than or equal to 10 microns (PM10); (3)
address changes to offset ratios for marginal, moderate, serious,
severe, and extreme ozone nonattainment areas; and (4) address changes
to provisions addressing offset requirements for facilities that shut
down or curtail operation. Tennessee's May 28, 2009 submittal adopts
these provisions promulgated in the Phase II Rule. In addition, May 28,
2009, SIP revision includes updates to the Tennessee PSD and NNSR
permitting regulations regarding the adoption of CCT definitions at
1200-03-09.01. Lastly, the SIP revision includes clarifying changes and
corrections to its rules at 1200-3-9-.01, 1200-3-9-.02 and 1200-3-
9-.03. All changes in the proposed SIP revision are necessary to comply
with Federal regulations related to Tennessee's NSR permitting program.
Pursuant to section 110 of the CAA, EPA is proposing to approve all the
aforementioned changes into the Tennessee SIP.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ Tennessee's May 28, 2009, SIP revision also contained
changes to Tennessee's SIP-approved NSR permitting regulations
regarding ``baseline actual emissions.'' EPA is not proposing action
for this revision at this time.
\2\ Tennessee's May 28, 2009 SIP submittal also made changes to
the State's title V regulations at 1200-3-9-.02(11) which EPA is not
proposing action as these regulations are not part of the SIP.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tennessee's May 28, 2009, submittal also included the removal of
provisions for clean units (CU) and pollution control projects (PCP)
from the State's PSD and NNSR regulations that were vacated by the
United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit (DC
Circuit Court) \3\ to be consistent with the Federal regulations. EPA
did not approve revisions into Tennessee's federally-approved SIP
regarding the provisions for CU and PCP. Therefore, no action related
to the provisions of CU and PCP is necessary.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\3\ On December 31, 2002, (67 FR 80186), EPA published final
rule changes to 40 CFR parts 51 and 52, regarding the CAA's PSD and
NNSR programs. On November 7, 2003, (68 FR 63021), EPA published a
notice of final action on the reconsideration of the December 31,
2002, final rule changes. The December 31, 2002, and the November 7,
2003, final actions are collectively referred to as the ``2002 NSR
Reform Rules.'' On June 24, 2005, DC Circuit Court vacated portions
of the 2002 NSR Reform Rules pertaining to CU and PCP.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
II. What is the background for EPA's proposed action?
A. What is the NSR program?
The CAA NSR program is a preconstruction review and permitting
program applicable to certain new and modified stationary sources of
air pollutants regulated under the CAA. The program includes a
combination of air quality planning and air pollution control
technology requirements. The CAA NSR program is composed of three
separate programs: PSD, NNSR, and Minor NSR. PSD is established in Part
C of title I of the CAA and applies in areas that meet the NAAQS
``attainment areas'' as well as areas where there is insufficient
information to determine if the area meets the NAAQS--``unclassifiable
areas.'' The NNSR program is established in Part D of title I of the
CAA and applies in areas that are not in attainment of the NAAQS--
``nonattainment areas.'' The minor NSR program addresses construction
or modification activities that do not qualify as ``major'' and applies
regardless of the designation of the area in which a source is located.
Together, these programs are referred to as NSR programs. EPA
regulations governing the implementation of these programs are
contained in 40 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) parts 51.165, 51.166,
52.21, 52.24, and part 51, Appendix S.
Section 109 of the CAA requires EPA to promulgate a primary NAAQS
to protect public health and a secondary NAAQS to protect public
welfare. Once
[[Page 75847]]
EPA sets those standards, states must develop, adopt, and submit a SIP
to EPA for approval that includes emission limitations and other
control measures to attain and maintain the NAAQS. See CAA section 110.
Each SIP is also required to include a preconstruction review program
for the construction and modification of any stationary source of air
pollution to assure the maintenance of the NAAQS. The May 28, 2009, SIP
submittal changes Tennessee's PSD and NNSR programs.
B. What are the NSR requirements for the Phase II Rule?
Today's proposed action on the Tennessee SIP relates in part to
EPA's Phase II Rule. 70 FR 71612 (November 29, 2005). In the Phase II
Rule, EPA made a number of changes including: recognizing
NOX as an ozone precursor for PSD purposes; changes to the
NNSR rules establishing major stationary thresholds (marginal,
moderate, serious, severe, and extreme NAA classifications) and
significant emission rates for the 8-hour ozone, PM10 and carbon
monoxide NAAQS; revised the criteria for crediting emission reductions
credits from operation shutdowns and curtailments as offsets, and
changes to offset ratios for marginal, moderate, serious, severe, and
extreme ozone NAA. EPA finalized regulations to address permit
requirements for the 1997 8-hour ozone NAAQS to implement the NSR
program by specifically identifying NOX as an ozone
precursor.
On July 18, 1997, EPA promulgated a revised 8-hour ozone NAAQS of
0.08 parts per million--also referred to as the 1997 8-hour ozone
NAAQS. On April 30, 2004, EPA designated areas as attainment,
nonattainment and unclassifiable for the 1997 8-hour ozone NAAQS. As
part of the framework to implement the 1997 8-hour ozone NAAQS, EPA
promulgated an implementation rule in two phases. Phase I of EPA's 1997
8-hour ozone implementation rule (Phase I Rule), published on April 30,
2004, effective on June 15, 2004, provided the implementation
requirements for designating areas under subpart 1 and subpart 2 of the
CAA (69 FR 23951).
On November 29, 2005, EPA promulgated the second phase for
implementation provisions related to the 1997 8-hour ozone NAAQS--also
known as the Phase II Rule (70 FR 71612). The Phase II Rule addressed
control and planning requirements as they applied to areas designated
nonattainment for the 1997 8-hour ozone NAAQS such as reasonably
available control technology, reasonably available control measures,
reasonable further progress, modeling and attainment demonstrations and
NSR, and the impact to reformulated gas for the 1997 8-hour ozone NAAQS
transition. The Phase II Rule requirements include, among other
changes, a provision stating that NOX is an ozone precursor.
70 FR 71612, 71679. In the Phase II Rule, EPA stated as follows:
``The EPA has recognized NOX as an ozone precursor in
several national rules because of its contribution to ozone
transport and the ozone nonattainment problem. The EPA's recognition
of NOX as an ozone precursor is supported by scientific
studies, which have long recognized the role of NOX in
ozone formation and transport. Such formation and transport is not
limited to nonattainment areas. Therefore, we believe NOX
should be treated consistently as an ozone precursor in both our PSD
and nonattainment NSR regulations. For these reasons, we have
promulgated final regulations providing that NOX is an
ozone precursor in attainment areas.''
As was discussed earlier, the Phase II Rule made changes to Federal
regulations at 40 CFR 51.165 and 51.166 (which governs the NNSR and PSD
permitting programs respectively). Pursuant to these requirements,
states were required to submit SIP revisions adopting the relevant
Federal requirements of the Phase II Rule (at 40 CFR 51.165 and 51.166)
into their SIP no later than June 15, 2007. On May 28, 2009, Tennessee
submitted a SIP revision (the subject of this action) to adopt the
relevant provisions at 40 CFR 51.165 and 51.166 into the Tennessee SIP
to be consistent with Federal regulations for NSR permitting purposes
promulgated in the Phase II Rule.
III. What is EPA's analysis of Tennessee's SIP revision?
Tennessee currently has a SIP-approved NSR program for new and
modified stationary sources. TDEC's PSD preconstruction rules are found
in Rule 1200-3-9-.01(4) and apply to major stationary sources or
modifications constructed in areas designated attainment as required
under part C of title I of the CAA with respect to the NAAQS. TDEC's
Rule 1200-3-9-.01(5) includes permitting requirements for sources in
and impacting nonattainment areas. Today, EPA is proposing to approve
changes to Tennessee's rules at 1200-3-9-.01(4) and at 1200-3-9-.01(5)
to update the State's existing NSR program to be consistent with
Federal NSR regulations, amended in the Phase II Rule (at 40 CFR 51.165
and 51.166). Lastly, EPA is proposing to approve Tennessee's clarifying
changes and corrections to its rules at 1200-3-9-.01, 1200-3-9-.02 and
1200-3-9-.03. More detail is provided below regarding EPA's analysis of
the changes to Tennessee's SIP as provided in the May 28, 2009, SIP
revision.
A. EPA's Analysis of Tennessee's NSR Rule Revision To Adopt the Phase
II Rule Requirements
Tennessee's May 28, 2009, SIP revision included changes to the
State's PSD and NNSR programs to address EPA's Phase II Rule. As part
of its review of the Tennessee submittal, EPA performed a line-by-line
review of the proposed revision including the provision which differs
from the Federal rules, and determined that they are consistent with
the program requirements for NSR, set forth at 40 CFR 51.165 and
51.166. States may meet the requirements of 40 CFR part 51 and the
Phase II Rules with alternative but equivalent regulations. Tennessee
adopted the Federal PSD and NNSR rules amended in the Phase II Rules
with minor NNSR variations.
Specifically, with regards to the permit requirements for NNSR
NOX as an ozone precursor, Tennessee's SIP revision did not
specifically include the NNSR provisions at 40 CFR 51.165(a)(1)(v)(E)
and 51.165(a)(1)(x)(C). See Phase II Rule at 70 FR 71612 (November 29,
2005). The Federal regulations at 40 CFR 51.165(a)(1)(v)(E) and
(a)(1)(x)(C) relate to applying the same volatile organic compound
(VOC) emission requirements for significant net emissions and emission
rates (respectively) to NOX emissions of major stationary
sources and major modifications. However, Tennessee's NSR program has
equivalent provisions that address both of the aforementioned Phase II
Rule requirements. Tennessee's existing SIP includes the definition of
``ozone precursor'' at 1200-03-09-.01(5)(b)1(xxxiii). Ozone precursor
is defined in Tennessee's SIP as VOC and/or NOX. Also,
Tennessee's SIP defines ``regulated NSR pollutant'' as ``VOC and/or
nitrogen oxides compound (1200-03-09-.01(5)(b)(1)(xlix).'' Tennessee's
definition for ``major modification'' (at 1200-03-09-.01(5)(b)1(v))
states that ``any significant emissions increase from any emissions
units or emission increase at a major stationary source that is
significant for volatile organic compounds and/or nitrogen oxides shall
be considered significant for ozone.''
In addition, Tennessee's May 28, 2009, SIP revision does not
explicitly include the Phase II Rule provision at
51.165(a)(1)(iv)(A)(2) which addresses the applicability of
NOX as an ozone
[[Page 75848]]
precursor to major stationary source emission thresholds in
nonattainment areas (based on classifications).\4\ However, EPA
believes that Tennessee's SIP already covers the requirement of
51.165(a)(1)(iv)(A)(2) because: (1) The definition of a ``major
stationary source'' (1200-03-09-.01(5)(b)(1)(iv)) in the Tennessee SIP
addresses major stationary source thresholds for NOX for
moderate nonattainment areas (which was the highest nonattainment
classification in the State), and (2) Tennessee's SIP recognizes
NOX as a regulated NSR pollutant.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\4\ At the time of the May 28, 2009, SIP revision, Tennessee's
highest ozone nonattainment classification was moderate.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
EPA has preliminarily determined that the rules adopted by
Tennessee in the May 28, 2009, SIP revision are at least as stringent
as the Federal program. Therefore, EPA has preliminarily determined
that Tennessee's May 28, 2009, SIP revision is consistent with the NSR
permit program requirements set forth at 40 CFR 51.165 and 51.166.
B. EPA's Analysis of Tennessee's Inclusion of Certain Clean Coal
Technology Changes
In addition to adopting the Federal rules consistent with the Phase
II Rule, Tennessee's SIP revision also includes changes that were
promulgated by EPA in a portion of the 1992 WEPCO Rule (Wisconsin
Electric Power Co. v. Reilly, 893 F.2d 901 (7th Cir. 1990)) on July 21,
1992 (57 FR 32314). The portion of the WEPCO Rule relevant to today's
proposal, regards the establishment of CCT and re-powering projects and
the applicability of NSR requirements to such projects. As part of the
WEPCO Rule, EPA established definitions for CCT, CCT demonstration
project, temporary CCT demonstration project, and re-powering. In
addition, the rule exempted CCT demonstration projects (that constitute
re-powering) from PSD requirements (major modification) as long as the
projects do not cause an increase in potential to emit of a regulated
NSR pollutant emitted by the unit.
Tennessee's May 28, 2009, SIP submittal revised Tennessee's NSR
regulations at 1200-03-09-.01 to adopt the CCT and repowering
definitions promulgated as part of the WEPCO Rule and now found at 40
CFR 51.165(a)(1)(xxii)-(xxiv) and 51.166(b)(33)-(36) as well as modify
the definition of ``major modification'' to exempt ``clean coal
technology demonstration projects'' (consistent with
51.165(a)(1)(v)(C)(9) and 51.166(b)(2)(iii)((i)-(j). EPA has
preliminarily determined that the rule changes made by Tennessee are
consistent with the current Federal regulations at 40 CFR 51.165 and
51.166.
C. EPA's Analysis of Tennessee's Clarifying Changes and Corrections
In addition to the adoption of specific Federal regulations
mentioned above, TDEC is also making clarifying changes and corrections
to its SIP for portions of Rules 1200-3-9-.01, 1200-3-9-.02 and 1200-
03-09-.03. As a result of the removal of all references to the ``clean
units'' language (due to the vacatur), Tennessee, were appropriate,
replaced the terms ``clean units'' or ``clean'' with the terms ``new
emission units'' or ``new'' at Rule 1200-3-9-.01 consistent with the
hybrid test applicability provision amended in the 2002 NSR Reform
Rule. 67 FR 8018 at 80260). In addition, Tennessee is correcting a
typographical error for the definition of ``major stationary source''
at Rule 1200-3-0-.01(5)(b)(i)1(iv)(II) by removing the ``s'' from the
word ``items'' between the word ``under and before numerical (``iv).''
For rule 1200-3-9-.02--``Operating Permits,'' Tennessee is revising
paragraph (1) to clarify the timeframe and conditions for an air
contaminant source (constructed or modified in accordance with Rule
1200-3-9-.01) to apply for an operating permit. Additionally, Tennessee
is also correcting a typographical error at Paragraph 1 of Rule 1200-3-
9-.03(1) which describes the authority of the State to requests an
early timeframe for sources to comply with emission regulations
stipulated in the Tennessee SIP. This correction at 1200-03-09-.03
replaces the word ``data'' with ``date.''
IV. Proposed Action
EPA is proposing to approve Tennessee's May 28, 2009, SIP revision
adopting Federal regulations amended in the Phase II Rule (including
recognition of NOX as an ozone precursor) into the Tennessee
SIP. Additionally, EPA is proposing to approve Tennessee's changes to
its PSD and NNSR permitting regulations regarding the addition of CCT
requirements (established in a portion of EPA's WEPCO Rule) at 1200-03-
09.01; and the clarifying changes and correction to Tennessee's NSR
rule. EPA has made the preliminary determination that this SIP revision
is approvable because it is in accordance with the CAA and EPA
regulations regarding NSR permitting.
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, EPA's role is to approve state choices,
provided that they meet the criteria of the CAA. Accordingly, this
proposed 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 proposed 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);
Does not impose an information collection burden under the
provisions 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 an economically significant regulatory action based
on health or safety risks subject to Executive Order 13045 (62 FR
19885, April 23, 1997);
Is not a significant regulatory action subject to
Executive Order 13211 (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001);
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; and
Does not provide EPA with the discretionary authority to
address, as appropriate, disproportionate human health or environmental
effects, using practicable and legally permissible methods, under
Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).
In addition, this proposed rule does not have tribal implications
as specified by Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000),
because the SIP is not approved to apply in Indian country located in
the state, and EPA notes that it will not impose substantial direct
costs on tribal governments or preempt tribal law.
