Federal Implementation Plans for the Clean Air Interstate Rule:
Automatic Withdrawal Provisions
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Direct final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: EPA is taking direct final action to amend the Federal
Implementation Plans (FIPs) for the Clean Air Interstate Rule (CAIR) to
provide for automatic withdrawal of the CAIR FIPs in a State upon the
effective date of EPA's approval of a full State implementation plan
(SIP) revision meeting the CAIR requirements. All CAIR States are
required to revise their SIPs to include control measures to reduce the
emissions of nitrogen oxides (NOX) and/or sulfur dioxide
(SO2). The EPA issued the CAIR FIPs on April 28, 2006 as a
backstop to implement the CAIR in each CAIR State until that State has
an EPA-approved CAIR SIP in place to achieve the required reductions.
In the FIP rulemaking, EPA stated it would withdraw the FIPs in a State
in coordination with the approval of the CAIR SIP for that State.
In this action EPA makes the FIP withdrawal in a State automatic
upon approval of the State's full CAIR SIP and to the extent of that
approval. EPA believes it is appropriate for the FIP withdrawal to be
automatic because to the extent EPA approves the State's full CAIR SIP,
this corrects that deficiency that provided the basis for EPA's
promulgation of the FIPs in that State.
DATES: The direct final rule is effective on January 16, 2008 without
further notice, unless EPA receives adverse comment by December 17,
2007. If EPA receives adverse comment, we will publish a timely
withdrawal in the Federal Register informing the public that the rule
will not take effect.
Public Hearing: If anyone contacts EPA requesting to speak at a
public hearing by November 13, 2007, EPA will hold a public hearing on
November 19, 2007 in Research Triangle Park, North Carolina.

I. Why Is EPA Using a Direct Final Rule?
EPA is publishing this rule without a prior proposed rule because
we view this as a noncontroversial action and anticipate no adverse
comment. Under this rule, the CAIR FIPs in a given State will be
automatically withdrawn when, and to the extent, EPA approves a full
CAIR SIP for that State. The FIP will not be withdrawn until the
State's full CAIR SIP is effective. EPA's authority to promulgate the
CAIR FIPs was based on EPA's prior findings that the existing SIPs did
not adequately address interstate transport (71 FR 25328, 25338; April
28, 2006). To the extent the full CAIR SIP is approved for a given
State, this corrects this deficiency and thus eliminates the basis for
the FIPs for that State. Therefore, EPA believes that, following the
approval of the full CAIR SIP, the Agency must withdraw the FIPs to the
extent of the approval. Further, in the rulemaking promulgating the
CAIR FIPs, EPA provided public notice that the withdrawal of the FIPs
would be a necessary consequence of the SIP approval. Id. at 25340.
Nonetheless, in the ``Proposed Rules'' section of this Federal
Register, we are publishing a separate document that will serve as the
proposed rule for this FIP withdrawal final rule action if relevant
adverse comments are received on this direct final rule. We will not
institute a second comment period on this action. Any parties
interested in commenting on that parallel proposal must do so at this
time. For further information about commenting on this rule, see the
ADDRESSES section of this document.
If EPA receives adverse comment, we will publish a timely
withdrawal in the Federal Register informing the public that this
direct final rule will not take effect. We would address all public
comments in any subsequent final rule based on the proposed rule.
II. Does This Action Apply to Me?
This action does not impose any control requirements. It amends the
CAIR FIPs to provide for automatic withdrawal of the CAIR FIPs in a
State upon the effective date of EPA's approval of the CAIR SIP for the
State. EPA promulgated the CAIR FIPs on April 28, 2006 (71 FR 25328).

This table is not intended to be exhaustive, but rather provides a
guide for readers regarding entities likely to be regulated by the CAIR
FIPs. To determine whether your facility is affected by the CAIR FIPs,
you should examine the definitions and applicability criteria in 40 CFR
97.102, 97.104, 97.105, 97.202, 97.204, 97.205, 97.302, 97.304, and
97.305. If you have any questions regarding the applicability of the
CAIR FIPs to a particular entity, consult the person listed in the
preceding section under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT.
III. What Should I Consider as I Prepare My Comments?
A. Submitting CBI
Do not submit this information to EPA through www.regulations.gov
or e-mail. Clearly mark the part or all of the information that you
claim to be CBI. For CBI information in a disk or CD-ROM that you mail
to EPA, mark the outside of the disk or CD-ROM as CBI and then identify
electronically within the disk or CD-ROM the specific information that
is claimed as CBI. In addition to one complete version of the comment
that includes information claimed as CBI, a copy of the comment that
does not contain the information claimed as CBI must be submitted for
inclusion in the public docket. Information so marked will not be
disclosed except in accordance with procedures set forth in 40 CFR part
2.
B. Tips for Preparing Your Comments
When submitting comments, remember to:
Identify the rulemaking by docket number and other
identifying information (subject heading, Federal Register date and
page number).
Follow directions--The agency may ask you to respond to
specific questions or organize comments by referencing a Code of
Federal Regulations (CFR) part or section number.
Explain why you agree or disagree; suggest alternatives
and substitute language for your requested changes.
Describe any assumptions and provide any technical
information and/or data that you used.
If you estimate potential costs or burdens, explain how
you arrived at your estimate in sufficient detail to allow for it to be
reproduced.
Provide specific examples to illustrate your concerns, and
suggest alternatives.
Explain your views as clearly as possible, avoiding the
use of profanity or personal threats.
Make sure to submit your comments by the comment period
deadline identified.
IV. What Are the Details for the Potential Public Hearing?
If anyone contacts EPA by November 13, 2007, requesting to speak at
a public hearing on this action, EPA will hold a public hearing on
November 19, 2007 in Research Triangle Park, North Carolina. The EPA
will not hold a hearing if one is not requested. Please check EPA's Web
page at www.epa.gov/cair on November 14, 2007 for the announcement of
whether the hearing will be held.
If there is a public hearing, it will be held at the EPA, Building
C, 109 T.W. Alexander Drive, Research Triangle Park, North Carolina,
27709; the room number will be announced on the CAIR Web site at
www.epa.gov/cair. Because this is a U.S. government facility, everyone
planning to attend the public hearing, if one is held, should be
prepared to show valid picture identification to the security staff in
order to gain access to the meeting room. If held, the public hearing
will begin at 10 a.m. and continue until 5 p.m., if necessary,
depending on the number of speakers. The EPA may end the hearing early
if all registered speakers have had an opportunity to speak, but no
earlier than 2 p.m. Persons wishing to present oral testimony that have
not made arrangements in advance should register by 2 p.m. the day of
the
[[Page 62340]]
hearing. Oral testimony will be limited to 5 minutes per commenter. The
EPA encourages commenters to provide written versions of their oral
testimonies either electronically (on computer disk or CD-ROM) or in
paper copy. Verbatim transcripts and written statements will be
included in the rulemaking docket.
If you want to request a hearing and present oral testimony at the
hearing, you should notify, on or before November 13, 2007, Pam Long,
EPA, Office of Air Quality Planning and Standards, Air Quality Policy
Division, C504-03, Research Triangle Park, NC 27711, telephone (919)
541-0641, e-mail [email protected]. The hearing will be strictly limited
to the subject matter of the proposal, the scope of which is discussed
below. Any member of the public may file a written comment by the close
of the comment period. Written comments should be submitted to Docket
ID No. EPA-HQ-OAR 2007-0510 at the addresses given above for submittal
of comments. If a hearing is held, the hearing schedule, including the
list of speakers, will be posted on EPA's Web page at www.epa.gov/cair.
A verbatim transcript of the hearing, if held, and written comments
will be made available for copying during normal working hours at the
EPA Docket Center address given above for inspection of documents.
V. Availability of Related Information
The official record for this rulemaking, as well as the public
version, has been established under Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OAR-2007-0510
(including comments and data submitted electronically as described
below). A public version of this record, including printed, paper
versions of electronic comments, which does not include any information
claimed as CBI, is available for inspection from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30
p.m., Monday through Friday, excluding legal holidays. The official
rulemaking record is located at the address provided in ADDRESSES at
the beginning of this document. In addition, the Federal Register
rulemaking actions and associated documents are located at www.epa.gov/cair.
The docket for the rulemaking that promulgated the CAIR FIPs Rule
is EPA-HQ-OAR-2004-0076. The rulemaking docket for the related CAIR
(full title, ``Rule to Reduce Interstate Transport of Fine Particulate
Matter and Ozone'') is EPA-HQ-OAR-2003-0053. The CAIR FIPs and the CAIR
Federal Register rulemaking actions and associated documents are also
located at http://www.epa.gov/cair.
VI. What Is the Background for This Action?
In a final rule published on April 25, 2005 (70 FR 21147),
effective May 25, 2005, EPA made national findings that States had
failed to submit SIPs required under section 110(a)(2)(D)(i) of the CAA
to address interstate transport with respect to the PM2.5
and 8-hour ozone NAAQS. These SIPs were due in July 2000, 3 years after
the promulgation of the 1997 PM2.5 and 8-hour ozone NAAQS.
The national findings started a 2-year clock for EPA to promulgate FIPs
to address the requirements of section 110(a)(2)(D)(i) in all the
States. Under section 110(c)(1), EPA may issue a FIP for any such State
any time after such findings are made and must do so unless a SIP
revision correcting the deficiency is approved by EPA before the FIP is
promulgated.
On May 12, 2005 (70 FR 25162), EPA issued the CAIR, in which it
determined that emissions from 28 States and the District of Columbia
(collectively, CAIR States) are contributing significantly to
nonattainment of the fine particle (PM2.5) and/or 8-hour
ozone national ambient air quality standards (NAAQS) in downwind
States. The CAIR also determined the levels of NOX and
SO2 emissions reduction requirements necessary for CAIR-
affected States to eliminate their significant contribution to downwind
nonattainment of the 8-hour ozone and PM2.5 NAAQS. (See also
CAIR revisions on April 28, 2006; 71 FR 25328 and December 13, 2006; 71
FR 74792.) NOX emissions are precursors to 8-hour and
PM2.5; SO2 emissions are precursors to
PM2.5. All CAIR States were required to submit their SIPs to
satisfy the CAIR requirements by September 11, 2006. For States subject
to the CAIR requirements, an approved CAIR SIP will satisfy, to the
extent it is approved, the section 110(a)(2)(D)(i) requirements
discussed in the April 25, 2005 findings action.
In a final rule published on April 28, 2006 (71 FR 25328), EPA
promulgated FIPs as a backstop to implement the CAIR requirements in
all CAIR States. As the control requirement for the FIPs, EPA adopted
the model trading rules for EGUs that EPA provided in CAIR as a control
option for States, with minor changes to account for Federal rather
than State implementation. The FIPs will regulate EGUs in the affected
States and achieve the emissions reduction requirements established by
the CAIR until States have EPA-approved SIPs to achieve the reductions.
In the FIP preamble, EPA stated it would withdraw the FIPs in a State
in coordination with the approval of the CAIR SIP for that State. To
the extent EPA approves a full CAIR SIP for a State, this eliminates
the basis for CAIR FIP for the State, which EPA promulgated as a result
of the April 25, 2005 findings.
In promulgating the FIPs, EPA explained that the FIPs do not limit
the options available to States to meet the requirements of the CAIR.
EPA explained that it intended to avoid taking any steps to implement
FIP requirements that could impact a State's ability to regulate their
sources in a different manner until a year after the CAIR SIP
submission deadline (71 FR 25330-25331). EPA further explained that
States could replace the FIPs requirements at a later time.
The CAIR FIPs also provide that States may submit ``abbreviated''
SIP revisions to replace or supplement specific elements of the FIPs,
leaving the remainder of the overall FIPs in place, rather than
submitting full CAIR SIP revisions that replace the FIPs. The
abbreviated SIP revisions, when approved, will automatically replace or
supplement the corresponding CAIR FIP provisions. (See 71 FR at 25345-
25346 for further details.) The automatic withdrawal provisions of this
rule only apply to EPA approval of full CAIR SIPs. This rule does not
affect the interaction between the abbreviated CAIR SIP provisions and
the CAIR FIPs (which remain in place following approval of an
abbreviated SIP).
VII. What Is This Direct Final Rule?
In this direct final rule, EPA is revising the CAIR FIPs to provide
that the FIPs will be automatically withdrawn in a State upon the
effective date of EPA's approval of the State's full CAIR SIP and to
the extent of that approval. If EPA only partially approves the State's
full CAIR SIP submittal, then the FIP will be automatically withdrawn
only to the extent of the partial approval. If EPA conditionally
approves a full CAIR SIP, this automatic withdrawal provision will have
no impact on the FIP, which will remain in place pending further action
by EPA. If necessary, in any action approving a full CAIR SIP, EPA will
provide additional details regarding the effect of the approval action
on the status of the FIPs in that State.
One scenario under which EPA might partially approve and partially
disapprove a SIP involves full CAIR SIPs on which EPA takes final
action after EPA has already begun allocating NOX allowances
under the FIP. For example, if the State submits a SIP that adopts the
model cap-and-trade programs for EGUs and EPA takes final
[[Page 62341]]
action on the SIP after EPA has allocated NOX allowances for
2009 under the FIP, but before it has allocated any other allowances,
EPA likely would disapprove the portions of the SIP relating to the
allocation of 2009 NOX allowances. The disapproval of the
2009 NOX allocations would be necessary to prevent excess
and duplicative NOX allowances from entering the trading
program. (See Section VI.F.1. of the CAIR FIPs Rule for the schedule
for recording NOX allocations in sources' accounts (71 FR
25352))
Under this scenario, because EPA would disapprove the portions of
the full CAIR SIP relating to the allocation of 2009 NOX
allowances, the corresponding portions of the FIP providing EPA with
authority to allocate 2009 NOX allowances (including the
authority to allocate NOX allowances from the new unit set-
aside, which would not be allocated by EPA until early 2009) would
remain in place. However, EPA would approve the remainder of the SIP if
it were found to be adequate, and thus the remainder of the FIP would
be automatically withdrawn. There would be no penalties or negative
consequences for the State associated with this partial SIP
disapproval, and the State would not need to take any further
corrective SIP action.
EPA does not anticipate conditionally approving any full CAIR SIPs.
However, should EPA do so, EPA will address the impact of the
conditional approval on the status of the CAIR FIPs in that State at
that time. At this time, EPA is not proposing to automatically withdraw
the FIP for a State based on conditional approval of a SIP for that
State because a conditional approval carries the risk that it will
convert to a disapproval in 1 year if the State does not address the
specified conditions by that time.
The EPA believes it is appropriate to make the CAIR FIP withdrawal
automatic in a State upon the effective date of the approval of the
State's full CAIR SIP because once EPA approves a State's full CAIR
SIP, EPA no longer has authority for the CAIR FIP in that State to the
extent of that approval. Once the full CAIR SIP is effective and
sources in the State are subject to the SIP, EPA's withdrawal of the
appropriate portions of the CAIR FIPs has no practical consequences.
Further, making the FIP withdrawal automatic upon full CAIR SIP
approval will provide immediate clarity to affected sources as to their
control requirements and conserve Agency resources that would otherwise
be needed to conduct numerous nondiscretionary, noncontroversial FIP
withdrawal rulemakings.
VIII. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
A. Executive Order 12866: Regulatory Planning and Review
This action is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under the
terms of Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993) and is
therefore not subject to review under the Executive Order.
B. Paperwork Reduction Act
This action does not impose any new information collection burden.
This action amends the CAIR FIPs to provide for automatic withdrawal of
the CAIR FIPs in a State once the State's CAIR SIP is in place. EPA
believes that the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.)
requirements of the existing CAIR FIPs rule are satisfied through the
Information Collection Request (ICR) (EPA ICR number 2152.02; OMB
control number 2060-0570) submitted to the OMB for review and approval
as part of the CAIR (70 FR 25162-25405) and approved by the OMB in
September 2005. A copy of the OMB approved Information Collection
Request (ICR) may be obtained from Susan Auby, Collection Strategies
Division; U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (2822T); 1200
Pennsylvania Ave., NW., Washington, DC 20460 or by calling (202) 566-
1672.
Burden means the total time, effort, or financial resources
expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, or disclose or
provide information to or for a Federal agency. This includes the time
needed to review instructions; develop, acquire, install, and utilize
technology and systems for the purposes of collecting, validating, and
verifying information, processing and maintaining information, and
disclosing and providing information; adjust the existing ways to
comply with any previously applicable instructions and requirements;
train personnel to be able to respond to a collection of information;
search data sources; complete and review the collection of information;
and transmit or otherwise disclose the information.
An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required
to respond to a collection of information unless it displays a
currently valid OMB control number. The OMB control numbers for EPA's
regulations in 40 CFR are listed in 40 CFR part 9.
C. Regulatory Flexibility Act
The Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA) generally requires an agency
to prepare a regulatory flexibility analysis of any rule subject to
notice and comment rulemaking requirements under the Administrative
Procedure Act or any other statute 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 organizations, and small governmental jurisdictions.
For purposes of assessing the impacts of this rule on small
entities, small entity is defined as: (1) A small business ``as defined
by the Small Business Administration's (SBA) regulations at 13 CFR
121.201;'' (2) a small governmental jurisdiction that is a government
of a city, county, town, school district or special district with a
population of less than 50,000; and (3) a small organization that is
any not-for-profit enterprise which is independently owned and operated
and is not dominant in its field.
After considering the economic impacts of this direct final rule on
small entities, I certify that this action will not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. This direct
final rule does not impose new requirements on any entities, but
instead provides for the automatic withdrawal of the CAIR FIPs in
certain circumstances. Thus, it does not impose any requirements on
small entities.
D. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act
Title II of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (UMRA), P.L.
104-4, establishes requirements for Federal agencies to assess the
effects of their regulatory actions on State, local, and tribal
governments and the private sector. Under section 202 of the UMRA, EPA
generally must prepare a written statement, including a cost-benefit
analysis, for proposed and final rules with ``Federal mandates'' that
may result in expenditures to State, local, and tribal governments, in
the aggregate, or to the private sector, of $100 million or more in any
1 year. Before promulgating an EPA rule for which a written statement
is needed, section 205 of the UMRA generally requires EPA to identify
and consider a reasonable number of regulatory alternatives and adopt
the least costly, most cost-effective or least burdensome alternative
that achieves the objectives of the rule. The provisions of section 205
do not apply when they are inconsistent with applicable law. Moreover,
section 205 allows EPA to adopt an alternative other than the least
costly, most cost-effective or least burdensome alternative if the
Administrator publishes with the final rule an explanation why that
alternative was not adopted. Before EPA establishes any regulatory
requirements that may
[[Page 62342]]
significantly or uniquely affect small governments, including tribal
governments, it must have developed under section 203 of the UMRA a
small government agency plan. The plan must provide for notifying
potentially affected small governments, enabling officials of affected
small governments to have meaningful and timely input in the
development of EPA regulatory proposals with significant Federal
intergovernmental mandates, and informing, educating, and advising
small governments on compliance with the regulatory requirements.
This rule contains no Federal mandates (under the regulatory
provisions of Title II of the UMRA) for State, local, or tribal
governments or the private sector. The rule imposes no enforceable duty
on any State, local or tribal governments or the private sector; but
would provide automatic withdrawal of the CAIR FIPs in certain
circumstances. Thus, this rule is not subject to the requirements of
sections 202 and 205 of the UMRA.
E. Executive Order 13132: Federalism
Executive Order 13132, entitled ``Federalism'' (64 FR 43255, August
10, 1999), 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.''
This final rule does not have federalism implications. It 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. This rule imposes no enforceable
duty on any State, local or tribal governments or the private sector.
Thus, Executive Order 13132 does not apply to this rule.
F. Executive Order 13175: Consultation and Coordination With Indian
Tribal Governments
Executive Order 13175, entitled ``Consultation and Coordination
with Indian Tribal Governments'' (65 FR 67249, November 9, 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.'' This direct final rule does
not have tribal implications, as specified in Executive Order 13175
because it imposes no enforceable duty on any State, local or tribal
governments or the private sector. Thus, Executive Order 13175 does not
apply to this rule.
G. Executive Order 13045: Protection of Children From Environmental
Health and Safety Risks
Executive Order 13045: ``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.
EPA interprets Executive Order 13045 as applying only to those
regulatory actions that are based on health or safety risks, such that
the analysis required under section 5-501 of the Order has the
potential to influence the regulation. This rule is not subject to
Executive Order 13045 because it does not establish an environmental
standard intended to mitigate health or safety risks.
H. Executive Order 13211: Actions That Significantly Affect Energy
Supply, Distribution, or Use
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 regulatory action under Executive Order 12866.
I. National Technology Transfer Advancement Act
Section 12(d) of the National Technology Transfer and Advancement
Act of 1995 (``NTTAA''), Public Law No. 104-113, 12(d) (15 U.S.C. 272
note) directs EPA to use voluntary consensus standards in its
regulatory activities unless to do so would be inconsistent with
applicable law or otherwise impractical. Voluntary consensus standards
are technical standards (e.g., materials specifications, test methods,
sampling procedures, and business practices) that are developed or
adopted by voluntary consensus standards bodies. The NTTAA directs EPA
to provide Congress, through OMB, explanations when the Agency decides
not to use available and applicable voluntary consensus standards.
This direct final rulemaking does not involve technical standards.
Therefore, EPA did not consider the use of any voluntary consensus
standards.
J. Executive Order 12898: Federal Actions To Address Environmental
Justice in Minority Populations and Low-Income Populations
Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629 (Feb. 16, 1994)) establishes
federal executive policy on environmental justice. Its main provision
directs Federal agencies, to the greatest extent practicable and
permitted by law, to make environmental justice part of their mission
by identifying and addressing, as appropriate, disproportionately high
and adverse human health or environmental effects of their programs,
policies, and activities on minority populations and low-income
populations in the United States.
EPA has determined that this final rule will not have
disproportionately high and adverse human health or environmental
effects on minority or low-income populations because it does not
affect the level of protection provided to human health or the
environment. This rule imposes no enforceable duty on any State, local
or tribal governments or the private sector. It will neither increase
nor decrease environmental protection.
K. Congressional Review Act
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 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). This rule will be effective January 16, 2008.
L. Judicial Review
Under CAA section 307(b), judicial review of this final action is
available only by filing a petition for review in the U.S. Court of
Appeals for the District
[[Page 62343]]
of Columbia Circuit on or before January 2, 2008. Under CAA section
307(d)(7)(B), only those objections to the final rule that were raised
with specificity during the period for public comment may be raised
during judicial review. Moreover, under CAA section 307(b)(2), the
requirements established by this final rule may not be challenged
separately in any civil or criminal proceedings brought by EPA to
enforce these requirements.

2. Section 52.35 is revised to read as follows:
Sec. 52.35 What are the requirements of the Federal Implementation
Plans (FIPs) for the Clean Air Interstate Rule (CAIR) relating to
emissions of nitrogen oxides?
(a)(1) The Federal CAIR NOX Annual Trading Program
provisions of part 97 of this chapter constitute the Clean Air
Interstate Rule Federal Implementation Plan provisions that relate to
annual emissions of nitrogen oxides (NOX). Each State that
is described in Sec. 51.123(c)(1) and (2) of this chapter received a
finding by the Administrator that the State failed to submit a State
Implementation Plan (SIP) to satisfy the requirements of section
110(a)(2)(D)(i)(I) of the Clean Air Act for the PM2.5 NAAQS.
The provisions of subparts AA through II of part 97 of this chapter,
regarding the CAIR NOX Annual Trading Program, apply to the
sources in each of these States that has not promulgated a SIP approved
by the Administrator as correcting that deficiency. Following
promulgation of an approval by the Administrator of a State's SIP as
meeting the requirements of CAIR for PM2.5 relating to
NOX under Sec. 51.123 of this chapter, these provisions of
part 97 of this chapter will no longer apply to the sources in that
State, except to the extent the Administrator's approval of the SIP is
partial or conditional or unless such approval is under Sec. 51.123(p)
of this chapter.
(2) Notwithstanding any provisions of paragraph (a)(1) of this
section, if, at the time of such approval of the State's SIP, the
Administrator has already allocated any CAIR NOX allowances
to sources in the State for any years, the provisions of part 97 of
this chapter authorizing the Administrator to complete the allocation
of CAIR NOX allowances for those years shall continue to
apply, unless the Administrator approves a SIP that provides for the
allocation of the remaining CAIR NOX allowances for those
years.
(b)(1) The Federal CAIR NOX Ozone Season Trading Program
provisions of part 97 of this chapter constitute the Clean Air
Interstate Rule Federal Implementation Plan provisions that relate to
emissions of nitrogen oxides (NOX) during the ozone season,
as defined in Sec. 97.302 of this chapter. Each State that is
described in Sec. 51.123(c)(1) and (3) of this chapter received a
finding by the Administrator that the State failed to submit a State
Implementation Plan (SIP) to satisfy the requirements of section
110(a)(2)(D)(i)(I) of the Clean Air Act for the 8-hour ozone NAAQS. The
provisions of subparts AAAA through IIII of part 97 of this chapter,
regarding the CAIR NOX Ozone Season Trading Program, apply
to sources in each of these States that has not promulgated a SIP
revision approved by the Administrator as correcting that deficiency.
Following promulgation of an approval by the Administrator of a State's
SIP as meeting the requirements of CAIR for ozone relating to
NOX under Sec. 51.123 of this chapter, these provisions of
part 97 of this chapter will no longer apply to sources in that State,
except to the extent the Administrator's approval of the SIP is partial
or conditional or unless such approval is under Sec. 51.123(ee) of
this chapter.
(2) Notwithstanding any provisions of paragraph (b)(1) of this
section, if, at the time of such approval of the State's SIP, the
Administrator has already allocated any CAIR NOX Ozone
Season allowances to sources in the State for any years, the provisions
of part 97 of this chapter authorizing the Administrator to complete
the allocation of CAIR NOX Ozone Season allowances for those
years shall continue to apply, unless the Administrator approves a SIP
that provides for the allocation of the remaining CAIR NOX
Ozone Season allowances for those years.
(c) The provisions of this section do not invalidate or otherwise
affect the obligations of States, emissions sources, or other
responsible entities with respect to all portions of plans approved or
promulgated under this part or the obligations of States under the
requirements of Sec. Sec. 51.123 and 51.125 of this chapter.
(d)(1) The States with SIPs approved by the Administrator as
meeting the requirements of CAIR for PM2.5 relating to
NOX under Sec. 51.123(o) of this chapter are: [STATE NAME].
(2) The States with SIPs approved by the Administrator as meeting

3. Section 52.36 is revised to read as follows:
Sec. 52.36 What are the requirements of the Federal Implementation
Plans (FIPs) for the Clean Air Interstate Rule (CAIR) relating to
emissions of sulfur dioxide?
(a) The Federal CAIR SO2 Trading Program provisions of part 97 of
this chapter constitute the Clean Air Interstate Rule Federal
Implementation Plan provisions for emissions of sulfur dioxide
(SO2). Each State that is described in Sec. 51.124(c) of
this chapter is subject to a finding by the Administrator that the
State failed to submit a State Implementation Plan (SIP) to satisfy the
requirements of section 110(a)(2)(D)(i)(I) of the Clean Air Act for the
PM2.5 NAAQS. The provisions of subparts AAA through III of
part 97 of this chapter, regarding the CAIR SO2 Trading
Program, apply to sources in each of these States that has not
promulgated a SIP revision approved by the Administrator as correcting
that deficiency. Following promulgation of an approval by the

PM2.5 relating to SO2 under Sec. 51.124 of this
chapter, these provisions of part 97 of this chapter will no longer
apply to sources in that State, except to the extent the
Administrator's approval of the SIP is partial or conditional or unless
such approval is under Sec. 51.124(r) of this chapter.
(b) The provisions of this section do not invalidate or otherwise
affect the obligations of States, emissions sources, or other
