I. Background
A. What is a SIP?
Section 110 of the CAA requires states to develop air pollution
regulations and control strategies to ensure that air quality meets the
National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) established by EPA. The
NAAQS are established under section 109 of the CAA and currently
address six criteria pollutants: Carbon monoxide, nitrogen dioxide,
ozone, lead, particulate matter, and sulfur dioxide. A SIP is a set of
air pollution regulations, control strategies, other means or
techniques, and technical analyses developed by the state, to ensure
that air quality in the state meets the NAAQS. It is required by
section 110 and other provisions of the CAA. A SIP protects air quality
primarily by addressing air pollution at its point of origin. SIPs can
be extensive, containing state regulations or other enforceable
documents, and supporting information such as emissions inventories,
monitoring networks, and modeling demonstrations. Each state must
submit any SIP revision to EPA for approval and incorporation into the
federally-enforceable SIP.
The New Mexico SIP includes a variety of control strategies,
including the regulations that outline general provisions applicable to
Albuquerque/Bernalillo County Air Quality Control Board (AQCB)
regulations and emissions inventory requirements.
B. What are Emissions Inventories?
Emissions inventories are surveys of actual and/or allowable
emissions of air pollutants in an area. They are critical for the
efforts of state, local, and federal agencies to attain and maintain
the NAAQS that EPA has established for criteria pollutants such as
ozone, particulate matter, and carbon monoxide. EPA issued the
consolidated emissions reporting rule on June 10, 2002 (67 FR 39602).
The rule can be found at 40 CFR part 51 Subpart A--Air Emissions
Reporting Requirements. The rule consolidated the various emissions
reporting requirements that already existed into one place in the CFR,
established new reporting requirements related to particulate matter
less than or equal to 2.5 microns (PM2.5) and regional haze,
and established new requirements for the statewide reporting of area
source and mobile source emissions. In 2008 EPA modified its
requirements for collecting and reporting air emissions data by
publishing the Air Emission Reporting Requirements in the Federal
Register on December 17, 2008 (73 FR 76539). The requirements (1)
provide options to the state and local air pollution control agencies
responsible for reporting data, (2) shorten the timeline for reporting
data, (3) eliminate the emissions reporting requirement for biogenic
emissions, and (4) require state and local agencies to adopt the
definition of a ``point source'' as specified under title V of the
Clean Air Act.
II. Overview of the State Submittals
The revisions we are approving address Title 20, Chapter 11, Part 2
General Provisions of the New Mexico Administrative Code (20.11.1 NMAC
General Provisions) and Title 20, Chapter 11, Part 47 Emissions
Inventory Requirements of the New Mexico Administrative Code (20.11.47
NMAC Emissions Inventory Requirements). These revisions apply to
sources in Bernalillo County, excluding sources in Indian lands over
which the AQCB lacks jurisdiction. We have prepared a Technical Support
Document (TSD) for this action which details our evaluation. Our TSD
may be accessed on-line at http://www.regulations.gov, Docket No. EPA-
R06-OAR-2008-0636.
A. The May 6, 2008 Submittal
On May 6, 2008, New Mexico submitted a revision to the Albuquerque/
Bernalillo County SIP. The revision established a new regulation,
20.11.47 NMAC, Emissions Inventory Requirements. The AQCB approved the
new regulation on March 12, 2008. The new regulation adds various
sections, including a section on definitions (20.11.46.7 NMAC),
emissions inventory and reporting requirements (20.11.47.14 NMAC) and
greenhouse gas emissions inventory requirements (20.11.47.15 NMAC).
B. The November 6, 2009 Submittals
On November 6, 2009, New Mexico submitted a revision to the
Albuquerque/Bernalillo County SIP. The AQCB adopted this revision on
October 14, 2009. The proposed revision amends regulation 20.11.47
NMAC, Emissions Inventory Requirements. The submittal revises section
(20.11.47.14 NMAC) by adding subsection B(2), which further clarifies
emission reporting requirements. Additional amendments include
renumbering of the sections to account for the new subsection B(2), and
minor amendments to 20.11.47.14 NMAC, subsections C(5)(f) and (D)(2),
and 20.11.47.15 NMAC, subsection (C) for further clarification.
Also on November 6, 2009, New Mexico submitted a revision to the
Albuquerque/Bernalillo County SIP amending Title 20, Chapter 11, Part
1, General Provisions.\1\ The proposed revision amends regulation
20.11.1 NMAC, General Provisions, which applies to sources in
Bernalillo county, excluding sources in Indian lands over which the
AQCB lacks jurisdiction. The submittal amends sections 1, 2, 3, 5, 6,
7, 9, 10, 11 and 14 of 20.11.1 NMAC to revise and update some
definitions, including the definition of volatile organic compounds
(VOCs), to be consistent with the federal definition found in 40 CFR
part 51, subpart F--Procedural Requirements and 40 CFR 51.100(s).
Additional detail is presented in our TSD for this action.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ The previous revision to Title 20, Chapter 11, Part 1,
General Provisions, was submitted to us for approval by the Governor
of New Mexico, in a letter dated September 7, 2004, on behalf of the
Albuquerque/Bernalillo County, Environmental--Health Department. The
proposed Title 20, Chapter 11, Part 1, General Provisions, contained
three sections titled ``Resolution,'' ``Definitions,'' and
Interpretation.'' The EPA initially approved Regulation I
(Resolution) of the Albuquerque/Bernalillo County, New Mexico on 04/
10/1980 (45 FR 24468). See 40 CFR 52.1620(c)(11). The EPA initially
approved Regulation 2 (Definitions) on 04/10/1980 (45 FR 24468).
Further revisions to Regulation 2 were later approved by EPA on 12/
21/93 (54 FR 67330). See 40 CFR 52.1620(c)(53). The EPA initially
approved Regulation 26 (Interpretation) on 02/23/1993 (58 FR 10972).
See 40 CFR 52.1620(c)(49). The proposed revisions to ``Resolution,''
``Definitions,'' and ``Interpretation'' reflect the new format and
renumbering of the NMAC. The proposed revisions also reflect
renaming of ``Regulation'' to ``Part.'' These changes were
administrative in nature, and did not change the text of the SIP-
approved rules. We published our approval of the recodification and
renumbering of Chapter 11 on December 30, 2004 (69 FR 78312).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
C. The December 15, 2010 Submittal
On December 15, 2010, New Mexico submitted a revision to the
Albuquerque/Bernalillo County SIP amending Title 20, Chapter 11, Part
1, General Provisions. The AQCB approved the revision on December 8,
2010. The proposed revision amends regulation 20.11.1 NMAC, General
Provisions.\2\ The submittal amends section 20.11.1.7 NMAC adding a
definition of greenhouse gases, modifying the definition of air
contaminant, and renumbering the definitions accordingly.\3\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\2\ The submittal also included revisions that amended 20.11.61
NMAC Prevention of Significant Deterioration and 20.11.42 NMAC
Operating Permits. EPA approved the PSD SIP revision portion of the
submittal effective January 30, 2012. (See 76 FR 81836).
\3\ 20.11.42 NMAC, Operating Permits, encompasses the Title V
operating permit program for facilities within Bernalillo County.
The Title V program is a delegated program, approved in the Federal
Register, and does not reside in the SIP. The Title V program was
last approved by EPA on 11/26/96, effective 1/27/97 (see 61 FR
60032-60034). A minor revision to correct the definition of ``Major
Source'', was approved by EPA on 9/8/04 (see 69 FR 54244-54247),
effective 11/8/04. Proposed revisions to the Title V program in the
form of amendments to 20.11.42 NMAC, were submitted to EPA on 7/22/
09, and are pending approval under Title V of the CAA. Therefore,
since revisions to Operating Permits are not part of the SIP, EPA is
not taking action on that portion of the submittal. Today's action
is only addressing the revision to 20.11.1 General Provisions.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
[[Page 5473]]
D. The October 18, 2012 Submittal
On October 18, 2009, New Mexico submitted a revision to the
Albuquerque/Bernalillo County SIP. The proposed revision amends
regulation 20.11.47 NMAC, Emissions Inventory Requirements. The AQCB
adopted the revision on October 10, 2012. The submittal revises
sections 6, 7, 14 and 15 of 20.11.47 NMAC further clarifying various
definitions, including the definition of regulated air contaminant,
deletes the greenhouse gas emissions inventory requirements from
section 15, and reserves the section for future revisions (20.11.47.15
NMAC). Therefore, the GHG emission inventory requirements that were
part of the May 6, 2008 submittal discussed in Section II(A) above are
no longer in front of us for action.
III. EPA's Evaluation of the Submittals
The revisions to be approved address Title 20, Chapter 11, Sections
1 and 47 of the NMAC. We have prepared a TSD for this proposal which
details our evaluation. Our TSD may be accessed on-line at http://www.regulations.gov, Docket No. EPA-R06-OAR-2008-0696.
Our primary consideration for determining the approvability of the
New Mexico submittals is whether these proposed actions comply with
section 110(l) of the Act and 40 CFR part 51, subpart A--Air Emissions
Reporting Requirements. Section 110(l) of the Act provides that a SIP
revision must be adopted by a State after reasonable notice and public
hearing. Additionally, CAA Sec. 110(l) states that the EPA cannot
approve a SIP revision if that revision would interfere with any
applicable requirement regarding attainment, reasonable further
progress (RFP) or any requirement established in the CAA. Additionally,
approvability of these proposed actions are also based upon EPA's
requirements for emissions inventories, and collecting and reporting
air emissions data found in 40 CFR, part 51, Subpart A--Air Emission
Reporting Requirements.
Our evaluation of the submittals found that the SIP revisions were
adopted by the State after reasonable notice, a public comment period,
a corresponding public hearing, and that approval of the revisions
would not interfere with any CAA requirement and are approvable.
A. The May 6, 2008 Submittal
The AQCB adopted a new regulation 20.11.47 NMAC Emissions Inventory
Requirements on March 12, 2008. The submittal dated May 6, 2008 revises
the New Mexico SIP to include this new regulation, which applies to
Albuquerque/Bernalillo County.
The regulation include sections that define the scope, duration,
effective date and objective of the regulation, which is to establish
requirements both for submitting inventories of air contaminants to
ensure that the regulations and standards under the Air Quality Control
Act and the CAA will not be violated, and to require submission of data
to quantify greenhouse gas emissions in Albuquerque/Bernalillo County.
Additionally, the new regulation includes a section of definitions.
Definitions in the submittal include definitions for actual emissions,
commencement, modification, potential to emit, shutdown, stationary
source, and western backstop sulfur dioxide trading program. These
definitions have been SIP-approved in previous EPA actions and are
consistent with the CAA. For example the term ``western backstop sulfur
dioxide trading programs'' (20.11.46.7(NN) NMAC) was defined and
approved in a previous action on November 29, 2012 (see 77 FR 71119).
These 20.11.47 NMAC revisions are mostly ministerial in nature and/or
add clarification.
Additionally, the new subsection 20.11.47.14(C)--Content of
Emissions Reports NMAC, outlines the information required for emission
reports, and states that emission report contents shall include all
information required by 40 CFR part 51, subpart A--Emissions Inventory
Reporting Requirements. More information on the details of the new
regulation is found in the TSD, which is provided in the docket for
this rulemaking.
This submittal was adopted consistent with the public notice SIP
requirements of CAA section 110(l). We find that these revisions are
approvable because they add specificity to the program. Further, these
revisions do not interfere with any applicable requirement concerning
attainment and reasonable further progress, or any other applicable
requirement, are consistent with EPA's rules and requirements in 40
CFR, part 51, Subpart A, and do not result in emissions increases. The
2012 submittal removed from EPA consideration 20.11.47.15 NMAC;
Albuquerque/Bernalillo County already reports greenhouse gas emissions
pursuant to 40 CFR part 98, Mandatory Greenhouse Gas Reporting. There
is no requirement for reporting of non-NAAQS pollutants to be included
in the SIP. There is no federal requirement that greenhouse gas
emissions inventory requirements be part of the New Mexico SIP.
B. The November 6, 2009 Submittals
The November 6, 2009 submittal revises section 20.11.47.14 NMAC by
adding subsection B(2) which further clarifies emission reporting
requirements and indicates that a source is not required to submit an
emissions report more frequently than annually. Additional amendments
include renumbering of the section to account for the new subsection
B(2) and minor amendments (20.11.47.14 NMAC, subsections C(5)(f) and
(D)(2)), and 20.11.47.15 NMAC, subsection (C) stating that estimates of
greenhouse emission need to be in pounds per year for further
clarification. EPA is approving these revisions as they are non-
substantial in nature. As previously noted, the 20.11.47.15 NMAC is no
longer before EPA for SIP action.
Also on November 6, 2009, the New Mexico submittal revises 20.11.1
NMAC General Provisions. The submittal amends sections 1, 2, 3, 5, 6,
7, 9, 10, and 11 of 20.11.1 NMAC to revise and update definitions
(section 20.1.7 NMAC), including the definition of volatile organic
compounds (VOCs), to be consistent with the federal definition found in
40 CFR part 51, subpart F--Procedural Requirements and 40 CFR
51.100(s). Section 20.11.1.14 NMAC Interpretation is removed, because
it was included in the rule in error when the rule was last amended by
the AQCB in 2004, is duplicative and resides in the rule that addresses
ambient air quality standards (20.11.8.14 NMAC Ambient Air Quality
Standards, Interpretation). EPA is approving these revisions since they
are consistent with federal requirements and/or non-substantial in
nature. Additional information regarding these revisions is available
in the TSD, which is provided in the docket for this rulemaking.
C. The December 15, 2010 Submittal
On December 15, 2010 AQCB adopted revisions to 20.11.1 NMAC,
General Provisions, and 20.11.61 NMAC, Prevention of Significant
Deterioration. EPA took action on the revisions to 20.11.61 NMAC,
Prevention of Significant Deterioration in a previous rulemaking, but
decided not to act on 20.11.1 NMAC at that time. In today's action, EPA
is taking action on the revisions to 20.11.1 NMAC, General Provisions
from the December 15, 2010 submittal. The AQCB adopted revisions
[[Page 5474]]
to 20.11.1 NMAC, Section 7, Definitions. The revisions update Section 7
by adding a definition for Greenhouse gases or ``GHGs'' in
20.11.1.7(CC). The definition is consistent with the federal definition
of GHGs. Additionally, the revisions include other non-substantive
changes such as renumbering the definitions for clarity. Further, these
revisions do not interfere with any applicable requirement concerning
attainment and reasonable further progress, or any other applicable
requirement and are consistent with section 110 of the CAA. EPA is
approving these revisions to 20.11.1 NMAC, General Provisions.
D. The October 18, 2012 Submittal
The October 18, 2012 submittal revises the SIP for Albuquerque/
Bernalillo County. The submittal revises sections 6, 7, 14 and 15 of
20.11.47 NMAC further clarifying various definitions including the
definition of regulated air contaminant, deletes the greenhouse gas
emissions inventory requirements from section 15, and reserves the
section for future revisions (20.11.47.15 NMAC). The deletion of
section 15 is not a relaxation of the SIP, since there is a no
requirement for non-NAAQS pollutants (i.e., GHGs) to have SIP-approved
reporting requirements. Albuquerque/Bernalillo County continues to
report estimates of NAAQS-related emissions pursuant to EPA's
requirements for emissions inventories found in 40 CFR, part 51,
Subpart A and greenhouse gases pursuant to 40 CFR, part 98 ``Mandatory
Greenhouse Gas Reporting'' (see 74 FR 56260, effective December 29,
2009).
Additionally, revisions to 20.11.47 NMAC also include deletions/or
updates of definitions of pollutants associated with greenhouse gases
such as perfluorocarbons, sulfur hexafluoride, the climate registry,
nitrous oxide, and other definitions, such as regulated pollutant
(20.11.47.7(W) NMAC), and renumbering for clarification.
This submittal was adopted consistent with the public notice SIP
requirements of CAA section 110(l),\4\ and the revisions in this
submittal do not interfere with any applicable requirement concerning
attainment and reasonable further progress, or any other applicable
requirement. We find that these revisions are approvable, because they
either clarify the emissions inventory requirements and/or are non-
substantive in nature.

2012.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
IV. Final Action
Pursuant to section 110 of the Act, EPA is approving through a
direct final action, five revisions to the New Mexico SIP that were
submitted on May 6, 2008, November 6, 2009,\5\ December 15, 2010 and
October 18, 2012. We evaluated the state's submittals and determined
that they meet the applicable requirements of the CAA section 110 and
applicable EPA guidance. In accordance with CAA section 110(l), these
revisions will not interfere with attainment of the NAAQS, reasonable
further progress, or any other applicable requirement of the CAA.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\5\ As discussed in this notice, there are two SIP submittals
that were submitted on the same date, November 6, 2009--one revising
20.11.1 NMAC and one revising 20.11.47 NMAC.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
EPA is publishing this rule without prior proposal because we view
these as non-controversial amendments and anticipate no adverse
comments. However, in the proposed rules section of this Federal
Register publication, we are publishing a separate document that will
serve as the proposal to approve the SIP revision if relevant adverse
comments are received. This rule will be effective on April 3, 2015
without further notice unless we receive relevant adverse comments by
March 4, 2015. If we receive relevant adverse comments, we will publish
a timely withdrawal of this direct final rulemaking in the Federal
Register informing the public that the direct final rule will not take
effect. We will address all public comments in a subsequent final rule
based on the proposed rule. We will not institute a second comment
period on this action. Any parties interested in commenting must do so
now. Please note that if we receive adverse comment on an amendment,
paragraph, or section of this rule and if that provision may be severed
from the remainder of the rule, we may adopt as final those provisions
of the rule that are not the subject of an adverse comment.
V. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
Under the Clean Air Act, 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 action merely proposes to approve 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);
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).
The SIP is not approved to apply on any Indian reservation land or
in any other area where 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 as specified by Executive Order 13175 (65
FR 67249, November 9, 2000), nor will it impose substantial direct
costs on tribal governments or preempt tribal law.
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
[[Page 5475]]
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).
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 3, 2015. 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)).
