40 CFR Part 282
[FRL-8011-3]
Underground Storage Tank Program: Approved State Program for
Pennsylvania
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Immediate final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976, as amended
(RCRA), authorizes EPA to grant approval to States to operate their
underground storage tank programs in lieu of the Federal program. Title
40 of the Code of Federal Regulations (40 CFR) codifies EPA's decision
to approve State programs and incorporates by reference those
provisions of the State statutes and regulations that will be subject
to EPA's inspection and enforcement authorities in accordance with
sections 9005 and 9006 of RCRA Subtitle I and other applicable
statutory and regulatory provisions. This rule codifies the prior
approval of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania's underground storage tank
program and incorporates by reference appropriate provisions of State
statutes and regulations.
DATES: This regulation is effective May 16, 2006, unless EPA publishes
a prior Federal Register notice withdrawing this immediate final rule.
All comments on the codification of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania's
underground storage tank program must be received by the close of
business April 17, 2006. The incorporation by reference of certain
publications listed in the regulations is approved by the Director of
the Federal Register, as of May 16, 2006, in accordance with 5 U.S.C.
552(a) and 1 CFR part 51.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
Section 9004 of RCRA, 42 U.S.C. 6991c, allows the EPA to approve a
State underground storage tank program to operate in the State in lieu
of the Federal underground storage tank program. EPA published a rule
in the Federal Register granting approval to the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania on September 11, 2003, and approval was effective on
September 11, 2003 (66 FR 53520).
EPA codifies its approval of a State program in 40 CFR part 282 and
incorporates by reference therein the State's statutes and regulations
that make up the approved program which is federally-enforceable in
accordance with sections 9005 and 9006 of Subtitle I of RCRA, 42 U.S.C.
6991d and 6991e, and other applicable statutory and regulatory
provisions. Today's rulemaking codifies EPA's approval of the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania's underground storage tank program. This
codification reflects the State program in effect at the time EPA
granted the Commonwealth approval, in accordance with RCRA section
9004(a), 42 U.S.C. 6991c(a), for its underground storage tank program.
Notice and opportunity for comment were provided earlier on the
Agency's decision to approve the Commonwealth's program, and EPA is not
now reopening that decision nor requesting comment on it.
To codify EPA's approval of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania's
underground storage tank program, EPA has added Sec. 282.88 to title
40 of the CFR. 40 CFR 282.88(d)(1)(i) incorporates by reference the
State's statutes and regulations that make up the approved program
which is federally-enforceable. 40 CFR 282.88 also references the
Attorney General's Statement, the Demonstration of Adequate Enforcement
Procedures, the Program Description, and the Memorandum of Agreement,
which were evaluated as part of the approval process of the underground
storage tank program, in accordance with Subtitle I of RCRA.
EPA retains the authority in accordance with sections 9005 and 9006
of Subtitle I of RCRA, 42 U.S.C. 6991d and 6991e, and other applicable
statutory and regulatory provisions, to undertake inspections and
enforcement actions in approved States. With respect to such an
enforcement action, EPA will rely on Federal sanctions, Federal
inspection authorities, and Federal procedures rather than the State
[[Page 13770]]
analogues to these provisions. Therefore, the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania's inspection and enforcement authorities are not
incorporated by reference, nor are they part of the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania's approved state program which operates in lieu of the
Federal program. These authorities, however, are listed in 40 CFR
282.88(d)(1)(ii) for informational purposes, and also because EPA
considered them in determining the adequacy of the Commonwealth's
enforcement authority. The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania's authority to
inspect and enforce the State's underground storage tank requirements
continues to operate independently under State law.
Some provisions of the Commonwealth's underground storage tank
program are not part of the federally-approved State program. These
non-approved provisions are not part of the RCRA Subtitle I program
because they are ``broader in scope'' than Subtitle I of RCRA, or are
otherwise not applicable. See 40 CFR 281.12(a)(3)(ii). As a result,
State provisions which are ``broader in scope'' than the Federal
program, or are otherwise not applicable, are not incorporated by
reference for purposes of Federal enforcement in 40 CFR part 282.
Section 282.88(d)(1)(iii) of the codification simply lists for
reference and clarity the Commonwealth's statutory and regulatory
provisions which are ``broader in scope'' than the Federal program and
which are not, therefore, part of the approved program being codified
today. ``Broader in scope'' provisions cannot be enforced by EPA; the
State, however, will continue to enforce such provisions.
When the phrases, ``insofar'' and ``except insofar,'' are used in
Appendix A (which provides an informational listing of the state
requirements incorporated by reference in Part 282 of the Code of
Federal Regulations), refer to the binders in the codification
materials for specifics as to any words, phrases, sentences,
paragraphs, or subsections that are ``crossed-out'' in the binders.
These crossed-out materials are not incorporated by reference in Part
282 of the Code of Federal Regulations.
Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
This rule only codifies EPA-authorized underground storage tank
program requirements pursuant to RCRA section 9004 and imposes no
requirements other than those imposed by State law (see Supplementary
Information). Therefore, this rule complies with applicable executive
orders and statutory provisions as follows.
1. Executive Order 12866: Regulatory Planning Review--The Office of
Management and Budget has exempted this rule from its review under
Executive Order (EO) 12866.
2. Paperwork Reduction Act--This rule does not impose an
information collection burden under the Paperwork Reduction Act.
3. Regulatory Flexibility Act--After considering the economic
impacts of today's rule on small entities under the Regulatory
Flexibility Act, I certify that this rule will not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial number of small entities.
4. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act--Because this rule codifies 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.
5. Executive Order 13132: Federalism--EO 13132 does not apply to
this rule because it will not have federalism implications (i.e.,
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).
6. Executive Order 13175: Consultation and Coordination with Indian
Tribal Governments--EO 13175 does not apply to this rule because it
will not have tribal implications (i.e., substantial direct effects 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).
7. Executive Order 13045: Protection of Children from Environmental
Health & Safety Risks--This rule is not subject to EO 13045 because it
is not economically significant and it is not based on health or safety
risks.
8. Executive Order 13211: Actions that Significantly Affect Energy
Supply, Distribution, or Use--This rule is not subject to EO 13211
because it is not a significant regulatory action as defined in EO
12866.
9. National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act--EPA has
previously addressed the non-applicability of the National Technology
Transfer and Advancement Act in its final approval of this state
program. See 66 FR 53520. Section 12(d) of the National Technology
Transfer and Advancement Act does not apply to this rule.
10. Congressional Review Act--EPA will submit a report containing
this rule and other information required by the Congressional Review
Act (5 U.S.C. 801 et seq.) to the U.S. Senate, the U.S. House of
Representatives, and the Comptroller General of the United States prior
to publication 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).
Nevertheless, to allow time for public comment, this action will be
effective on May 16, 2006.

For the reasons set forth in the preamble, 40 CFR part 282 is amended
as follows:
PART 282--APPROVED UNDERGROUND STORAGE TANK PROGRAMS
0
1. The authority citation for part 282 continues to read as follows:
Authority: 42 U.S.C. 6912, 6991c, 6991d, and 6991e.
Subpart B--Approved State Programs
0
2. Subpart B is amended by adding Sec. 282.88 to read as follows:
Sec. 282.88 Pennsylvania State-Administered Program.
(a) The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania's underground storage tank
program is approved in lieu of the Federal program in accordance with
Subtitle I of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976
(RCRA), as amended, 42 U.S.C. 6991 et seq. The State's program, as
administered by the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental
Protection, was approved by EPA pursuant to 42 U.S.C. 6991c and part
281 of this chapter. EPA approved the Pennsylvania underground storage
tank program on September 11, 2003, and approval was effective on
September 11, 2003.
(b) The Commonwealth has primary responsibility for enforcing its
underground storage tank program. However, EPA retains the authority to
exercise its inspection and enforcement authorities in accordance with
sections 9005 and 9006 of Subtitle I of RCRA, 42 U.S.C. 6991d and
6991e, regardless of
[[Page 13771]]
whether the State has taken its own actions, as well as in accordance
with other statutory and regulatory provisions.
(c) To retain program approval, the Commonwealth must revise its
approved program to adopt new changes to the Federal Subtitle I program
that make it more stringent, in accordance with section 9004 of RCRA,
42 U.S.C. 6991c, and 40 CFR part 281, subpart E. If the Commonwealth
obtains approval for the revised requirements pursuant to section 9004
of RCRA, 42 U.S.C. 6991c, the newly approved statutory and regulatory
provisions will be added to this subpart and notice of any change will
be published in the Federal Register.
(d) The Commonwealth has final approval for the following elements
submitted to EPA in the State's program application for final approval.
On September 11, 2003, EPA published a rule approving the State's
program in the Federal Register, 66 FR 53520. That approval became
effective on September 11, 2003. Copies of the Commonwealth's program
