33 CFR Part 165

[Docket Number USCG-2018-0736]
RIN 1625-AA00

Safety Zones; Coast Guard Sector New Orleans Annual and Recurring
Safety Zones

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard proposes to amend its safety zone regulations
for annual events in Coast Guard Sector New Orleans' area of
responsibility. This proposed rule would add four new recurring safety
zones and amend the location or dates for two events already listed in
the table. This action is necessary to protect spectators,
participants, and vessels from the hazards associated with annual
marine events. This proposed rulemaking would prohibit entry into the
safety zones during the events unless authorized by the Captain of the
Port Sector New Orleans or a designated representative. We invite your
comments on this proposed rulemaking.

DATES: Comments and related material must be received by the Coast
Guard on or before October 10, 2018.

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments identified by docket number USCG-
2018-0736 using the Federal eRulemaking Portal at http://www.regulations.gov. See the ``Public Participation and Request for
Comments'' portion of the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section for further
instructions on submitting comments.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: If you have questions about this
proposed rulemaking, call or email Lieutenant Commander Benjamin
Morgan, Sector New Orleans, U.S. Coast Guard; telephone<PHONE_NUMBER>,

II. Background, Purpose, and Legal Basis

    The Captain of the Port Sector New Orleans (COTP) proposes to amend
Table 5 of 33 CFR 165.801 to update the table of annual firework
displays and other marine events in Coast Guard Sector New Orleans. The
current list of annual and recurring safety zones in Sector New Orleans
is published in Table 5 of 33 CFR 165.801. That most recent table was
created through the interim final rule published on April 22, 2014 (79
FR 22398). The current Table 5 in 33 CFR 165.801 needs to be amended to
include new safety zones expected to recur annually and provide new
information on two existing safety zones.
    The proposed annually recurring safety zones are necessary to
provide for the safety of life on navigable waters during marine
events. Based on the nature of these marine events, large numbers of
participants and spectators, and locations of the events, the COTP has
determined that the events listed in this proposed rule could pose a
risk to participants or waterway users if the normal vessel traffic
were to interfere with the events. Possible hazards include risks of
injury or death from near or actual contact among participant vessels
and spectators or mariners traversing through the safety zones. In
order to protect the safety of all waterway users, including event
participants and spectators, this proposed rule would establish safety
zones for the time and location of each marine event.
    This purpose of this proposed rulemaking is to ensure the safety of
vessels on the navigable waters in the safety zones during the
scheduled events. Vessels would not be permitted to enter the safety
zone unless authorized by the COTP or a designated representative. The
Coast Guard proposes this rulemaking under authority in 33 U.S.C. 1231.

III. Discussion of Proposed Rule

    The COTP proposes to amend its safety zone regulations for annual
events in Coast Guard Sector New Orleans listed in Table 5 of 33 CFR
165.801. From time to time this section needs to be amended to properly
reflect recurring safety zones in Sector New Orleans' area of
responsibility. This rule would add four new recurring safety zones and
amend the location or dates of two safety zones already listed in the
current table. Other than the described changes, the regulations of 33
CFR 165.801 and other provisions in Table 5 of Sec.  165.801 would
remain unchanged.
    The Coast Guard proposes to revise regulations in Table 5 of 33 CFR
165.801 by adding four new safety zones. The safety zones being added
to Table 5 are below:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Coast Guard also proposes to revise regulations in Table 5 of
33 CFR 165.801 by amending two existing safety zones listed in the
table. The first safety zone to be amended is tiled as St. John the
Baptist Parish Independence Celebration Fireworks. This safety zone is
currently listed to occur at the location of mile marker (MM) 175 to MM
176 on the Lower Mississippi River, above Head of Passes, Reserve, LA.
This location contains a typo, which the Coast Guard proposes to amend
to reflect the correct location in Reserve, LA. The second safety zone
to be amended is titled as Independence Day Celebration, Main Street
4th of July (Fireworks Display). The date for this safety zone is
currently listed as 4th of July. The Coast Guard proposes to amend the
date format to conform to the format of other dates listed in the
table. The proposed amendments are below:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                                  Sector New Orleans

                                     Celebration Fireworks.                             138.5, Reserve, LA.

                                     4th of July (Fireworks                             1.0, Morgan City, LA.
                                     Display).
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The proposed amendments to these safety zones are necessary to
ensure the safety of vessels, spectators, and participants during
annual events taking place on or near the navigable waters in Sector
New Orleans' area of responsibility. Although this proposed rule would
be in effect year-round, the specific safety zones listed in Table 5 of
33 CFR 165.801 would only be enforced during a specified period of time
coinciding with the happening of the annual events listed. In
accordance with the regulations listed in 33 CFR 165.801(a)-(d), entry
into these safety zones would be prohibited unless authorized by the
COTP or a designated representative. The regulatory text of the
proposed updates to Table 5 of Sec.  165.801 appears at the end of this
document.

IV. Regulatory Analyses

    We developed this proposed rule after considering numerous statutes
and Executive orders related to rulemaking. Below we summarize our
analyses based on a number of these statutes and Executive orders and
we discuss First Amendment rights of protestors.

A. Regulatory Planning and Review

    Executive Orders 12866 and 13563 direct agencies to assess the
costs and benefits of available regulatory alternatives and, if
regulation is necessary, to select regulatory approaches that maximize
net benefits. Executive Order 13771 directs agencies to control
regulatory costs through a budgeting process. This NPRM has not been
designated a ``significant regulatory action,'' under Executive Order
12866. Accordingly, the NPRM has not been reviewed by the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB), and pursuant to OMB guidance it is exempt
from the requirements of Executive Order 13771.
    This regulatory action determination is based on the size,
location, and duration of the safety zones. These safety zones are
limited in size and duration, and are usually positioned away from high
vessel traffic zones. Moreover, the Coast Guard would issue a Broadcast
Notice to Mariners via VHF-FM marine channel 16 about the zones, and
the rule would allow vessels to seek permission to enter the zones.

B. Impact on Small Entities

    The Regulatory Flexibility Act of 1980, 5 U.S.C. 601-612, as
amended, requires Federal agencies to consider the potential impact of
regulations on small entities during rulemaking. The term ``small
entities'' comprises small businesses, not-for-profit organizations
that are independently owned and operated and are not dominant in their
fields, and governmental jurisdictions with populations of less than
50,000. The Coast Guard certifies under 5 U.S.C. 605(b) that this
proposed rule would not have a significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities.
    While some owners or operators of vessels intending to transit the
proposed safety zones may be small entities, for the reasons stated in
section IV.A above, this proposed rule would not have a significant
economic impact on any vessel owner or operator.
    If you think that your business, organization, or governmental
jurisdiction qualifies as a small entity and that this rule would have
a significant economic impact on it, please submit a comment (see
ADDRESSES) explaining why you think it qualifies and how and to what
degree this rule would economically affect it.
    Under section 213(a) of the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement
Fairness Act of 1996 (Pub. L. 104-121), we want to assist small
entities in understanding this proposed rule. If the rule would affect
your small business, organization, or governmental jurisdiction and you
have questions concerning its provisions or options for compliance,
please contact the person listed in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT
section. The Coast Guard will not retaliate against small entities that
question or complain about this proposed rule or any policy or action
of the Coast Guard.

C. Collection of Information

    This proposed rule would not call for a new collection of
information under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501-
3520).

D. Federalism and Indian Tribal Governments

    A rule has implications for federalism under Executive Order 13132,
Federalism, if it has a substantial direct effect 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. We have analyzed this proposed rule
under that Order and have determined that it is consistent with the
fundamental federalism principles and preemption requirements described
in Executive Order 13132.
    Also, this proposed rule does not have tribal implications under
Executive Order 13175, Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal
Governments, because it would not have a substantial direct effect 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. If
you believe this proposed rule has implications for federalism or
Indian tribes, please contact the person listed in the FOR FURTHER
INFORMATION CONTACT section.

E. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act

    The Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (2 U.S.C. 1531-1538)
requires Federal agencies to assess the effects of their discretionary
regulatory actions. In particular, the Act addresses actions that may
result in the expenditure by a State, local, or tribal government, in
the aggregate, or by the private sector of $100,000,000 (adjusted for
inflation) or more in any one year. Though this proposed rule would not
result in such an expenditure, we do discuss the effects of this rule
elsewhere in this preamble.

F. Environment

    We have analyzed this proposed rule under Department of Homeland
Security Directive 023-01 and Commandant Instruction M16475.lD, which
guide the Coast Guard in complying with the National Environmental
Policy Act of 1969 (42 U.S.C. 4321-4370f), and have made a preliminary
determination that this proposed action is one of a category of actions
that do not individually or cumulatively have a significant effect on
the human environment. This proposed rule involves the establishment of
safety zones limiting access to certain areas in Sector New Orleans'
area of responsibility. Normally such actions are categorically
excluded from further review under paragraph L60(a) of Appendix A,
Table 1 of DHS Instruction Manual 023-01-001-01, Rev. 01. A Record of
Environmental Consideration supporting this determination is available
in the docket where indicated under ADDRESSES. We seek any comments or
information that may lead to the discovery of a significant
environmental impact from this proposed rule.

G. Protest Activities

    The Coast Guard respects the First Amendment rights of protesters.
Protesters are asked to contact the person listed in the FOR FURTHER
INFORMATION CONTACT section to coordinate protest activities so that
your message can be received without jeopardizing the safety or
security of people, places, or vessels.

V. Public Participation and Request for Comments

    We view public participation as essential to effective rulemaking,
and will consider all comments and material received during the comment
period. Your comment can help shape the outcome of this rulemaking. If
you submit a comment, please include the docket number for this
rulemaking, indicate the specific section of this document to which
each comment applies, and provide a reason for each suggestion or
recommendation.
    We encourage you to submit comments through the Federal eRulemaking
Portal at http://www.regulations.gov. If your material cannot be
submitted using http://www.regulations.gov, contact the person in the
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section of this document for alternate

    We accept anonymous comments. All comments received will be posted
without change to http://www.regulations.gov and will include any
personal information you have provided. For more about privacy and the
docket, visit http://www.regulations.gov/privacyNotice.
    Documents mentioned in this NPRM as being available in the docket,
and all public comments, will be in our online docket at http://www.regulations.gov and can be viewed by following that website's
instructions. Additionally, if you go to the online docket and sign up
for email alerts, you will be notified when comments are posted or a
final rule is published.

	tables

Neal: I forgot to mention the typos I noted in Chapter 6:

1) please remove the word "premature" from the titles of all of the

Morbidity tables.  [Premature is the appropriate modifier for

'mortality' because we're all going to die, but hopefully we are not all

going to get asthma or COPD, etc].  By the same token, pls make sure

that all of the mortality tables DO have the word 'premature'.

2) page 6-40 - the table is labeled '5-12' It should be table 6-12.

3) Section 6.5 text - do the table numbers listed in the text match the

actual table numbers now that the 079 tables were added?  079 is not

mentioned in any of the places that the alternative standards analyzed

are listed.

Thanks.

Site Tours Program

AGENCY: Food and Drug Administration, HHS.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA), Center for Tobacco
Products (CTP) is announcing a notice for participation in its Site
Tours Program. This program is intended to give CTP staff an
opportunity to visit facilities involved in the growing, processing, or
manufacturing of tobacco or tobacco products. These visits are intended
to provide CTP staff with the opportunity to gain a better
understanding of the tobacco industry and its operations. The purpose
of this notice is to alert parties interested in participating in the
Site Tours Program to submit requests to CTP.

DATES: Interested parties should submit either an electronic or written
request for participation by June 17, 2011. The request should include
a description of your facility, including as applicable, a list of all
tobacco products processed and/or manufactured there. Please specify
the physical address(es) of the site(s) for which you are submitting a
request along with a proposed 1-day tour agenda.

ADDRESSES: If your facility is interested in offering a site visit, you
should submit a request to participate in the program either
electronically to http://www.regulations.gov or in writing to the
Division of Dockets Management (HFA-305), Food and Drug Administration,
5630 Fishers Lane, rm. 1061, Rockville, MD 20852.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Lucinda Miner, Center for Tobacco
Products, Food and Drug Administration, 9200 Corporate Blvd.,
Rockville, MD 20850,<PHONE_NUMBER>, e-mail<EMAIL_ADDRESS>
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    On June 22, 2009, the Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control
Act (Pub. L. 111-31; 123 Stat. 1776) was signed into law, amending the
Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the FD&C Act) and giving FDA
authority to regulate tobacco product manufacturing, distribution, and
marketing. This includes, among other things, the authority to issue
regulations related to health warnings, tobacco product standards, good
manufacturing practices, as well as tobacco product constituents,
ingredients, and additives.
    CTP is instituting the Site Tours Program to provide its scientific
and regulatory staff the opportunity to gain a better understanding of
the tobacco industry and its operations, including tobacco product
manufacturing and aspects of tobacco growing, processing, and storage
that may affect the physical and chemical properties of tobacco.
Although FDA generally does not regulate tobacco farms and tobacco
warehouses, the Agency believes that gaining a better understanding of
the operations performed at these facilities may be helpful. The goals
of the Site Tours Program are to: (1) Provide CTP firsthand exposure to
industry's manufacturing processes; (2) learn about control measures
used by tobacco product manufacturers to ensure product consistency;
(3) understand the processing of different forms of tobacco and the
manufacturing processes used for various types of tobacco products and
their influences on product constituents; and (4) understand how
growing conditions, curing, storage, and manufacturing processes might
influence the levels of tobacco or tobacco smoke constituents.

II. Description of Site Tours Program

    In the Site Tours Program, small groups of CTP staff plan to
observe the operations of tobacco growers, tobacco warehouses, and
manufacturing facilities of cigarette, roll-your-own, and smokeless
tobacco companies. Please note that the Site Tours Program is not
intended to include official FDA inspections of facilities to determine
compliance with the FD&C Act; rather, the program is meant to educate
CTP staff and improve their understanding of the tobacco industry and
its operations.

III. Site Selection

    CTP plans to select one or more of each of the following types of
facilities: A large cigarette manufacturing facility, a small cigarette
manufacturing facility, a smokeless tobacco manufacturing facility, a
burley tobacco farm, a flue-cured tobacco farm, a tobacco rolling paper
facility, and a tobacco warehouse. All travel expenses associated with
the site tours will be the responsibility of CTP. Final site selections
will be based on the availability of CTP funds and resources for the
relevant fiscal year, as well as the following factors: (1) Compliance
status of the requesting facility and affiliated firm, if applicable;
(2) whether the requesting facility is in arrears for user fees; (3)
whether the requesting facility or affiliated firm, if applicable, has
a significant request or marketing application or submission pending
with FDA; and (4) whether the requesting facility will be engaged in
active manufacturing or processing during the proposed time of the
visit.

IV. Requests for Participation

    Requests are to be identified with the docket number found in
brackets in the heading of this document. Requests received by the
Agency are available for public examination in the Division of Dockets
Management (see ADDRESSES) between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m., Monday through
Friday.

Determination of Attainment by the Attainment Date But for
International Emissions for the 2015 Ozone National Ambient Air Quality
Standard; Imperial County, California

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Final action.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA or ``Agency'') is
determining that the Imperial County nonattainment area would have
attained the 2015 ozone national ambient air quality standard (NAAQS)
by the August 3, 2021 ``Marginal'' area attainment date, but for
emissions emanating from outside the United States. As a result of this
final action, the Imperial County nonattainment area will no longer be
subject to the Clean Air Act (CAA) requirements pertaining to
reclassification upon failure to attain and therefore will remain
classified as a Marginal nonattainment area for the 2015 ozone NAAQS.
This action discharges the EPA's statutory obligation to determine
whether the Imperial County ozone nonattainment area attained the NAAQS
by the attainment date.

DATES: This final action is effective on November 21, 2022.

ADDRESSES: The EPA has established a docket for this action under
Docket ID No. EPA-R09-OAR-2022-0501. All documents in the docket are
listed on the https://www.regulations.gov website. Although listed in
the index, some information is not publicly available, e.g.,
Confidential Business Information (CBI) or other information whose
disclosure is restricted by statute. Certain other material, such as
copyrighted material, is not placed on the internet and will be
publicly available only in hard copy form. Publicly available docket
materials are available through https://www.regulations.gov, or please

IV. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

I. Summary of the Proposed Action

    On August 15, 2022, the EPA proposed to determine, based on a
demonstration submitted by the State of California, that the Imperial
County nonattainment area \1\ would have attained the 2015 ozone NAAQS
\2\ by the ``Marginal'' area attainment date of August 3, 2021, but for
emissions emanating from outside of the United States (specifically,
from Mexico), and therefore is not subject to the CAA requirements
pertaining to reclassification upon failure to attain.\3\ This
demonstration, entitled ``Imperial County Clean Air Act Section 179B(b)
Analysis for the 70 ppb 8-Hour Ozone Standard,'' was submitted by the
California Air Resources Board (CARB) on August 16, 2021. CARB
submitted additional information on November 24, 2021. Using several
lines of evidence, CARB evaluated whether, and the extent to which,
ambient ozone levels in Imperial County are affected by emissions
emanating from northern Mexico.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ The Imperial County nonattainment area for the 2015 ozone
standard includes the entire county. Both the Quechan Tribe of the
Fort Yuma Indian Reservation and the Torres Martinez Desert Cahuilla
Indians have lands within Imperial County. A precise description of
the Imperial County ozone nonattainment area is contained in 40 CFR
81.305.
    \2\ Ground-level ozone pollution is formed from the reaction of
volatile organic compounds (VOC) and oxides of nitrogen
(NOX) in the presence of sunlight. On October 26, 2015,
the EPA revised the NAAQS for ozone to establish a new 8-hour ozone
standard. 80 FR 65452. In that action, the EPA promulgated identical
revised primary and secondary ozone standards designed to protect
public health and welfare that specified an 8-hour ozone level of
0.070 parts per million (ppm). Because the 2015 primary and
secondary NAAQS for ozone are identical, for convenience, the EPA
refers to them in the singular as ``the 2015 ozone NAAQS'' or as
``the standard.''
    \3\ 87 FR 50030.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In our proposed rule, we provided background information on the
ozone standard, area designations and related SIP requirements for
Marginal ozone nonattainment areas under the CAA, and information on
the provisions of CAA section 179B, entitled ``International Border
Areas.'' We also provided our analysis of CARB's demonstration and the
rationale for our conclusion that Imperial County would have attained
the 2015 ozone NAAQS, but for emissions emanating from Mexico. We
stated that, if our proposed determination were to be finalized, the
EPA's obligation under CAA section 181(b)(2)(A) to determine whether
the area attained by its attainment date would not apply and the area
would not be reclassified. The area would remain designated
nonattainment and thus the State would continue to comply with
applicable requirements for a Marginal ozone nonattainment area.
    Please see our proposed rule for more information concerning the
background for this action and for a more detailed discussion of the
rationale for our determination that Imperial County would have
attained the 2015 ozone NAAQS by the Marginal area attainment date of
August 3, 2021, but for emissions emanating from Mexico.

II. Public Comment

    The public comment period on the proposed rule opened on August 15,
2022, the date of its publication in the Federal Register, and closed
on September 14, 2022. We did not receive any public comments.

III. Final Action

    For the reasons discussed in detail in the proposed rule and
summarized herein, the EPA is taking final action under CAA section
179B(b) to determine, consistent with our evaluation of the ``Imperial
County Clean Air Act Section 179B(b) Analysis for the 70 ppb 8-Hour
Ozone Standard,'' that the Imperial County nonattainment area would
have attained the 2015 ozone NAAQS by the Marginal area attainment date
of August 3, 2021, but for emissions emanating from Mexico. Therefore,
the EPA's obligation under section 181(b)(2)(A) to determine whether
the area attained by its attainment date no longer applies. The area
will not be reclassified and will remain a Marginal nonattainment area.

IV. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

A. Executive Order 12866: Regulatory Planning and Review and Executive
Order 13563: Improving Regulation and Regulatory Review

    This action is exempt from review by the Office of Management and
Budget because it responds to the CAA requirement to determine whether
areas designated nonattainment for an ozone NAAQS attained the standard
by the applicable attainment date.

B. Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA)

    This rulemaking does not impose any new information collection
burden under the PRA not already approved by the Office of Management
and Budget. This action does not contain any information collection
activities and serves only to make final a determination that the
Imperial County Marginal nonattainment area would have attained the
2015 ozone standard by the August 3, 2021 attainment date but for
international emissions.

C. Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA)

    I certify that this action will not have a significant economic
impact on a substantial number of small entities under the RFA. This
action will not impose any requirements on small entities. The
determination that the Imperial County Marginal nonattainment area
would have attained the 2015 ozone standard by the August 3, 2021
attainment date but for international emissions does not in and of
itself create any new requirements beyond what is mandated by the CAA.
Instead, this rulemaking only makes a factual determination, and does
not directly regulate any entities.

D. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA)

    This action does not contain any unfunded mandate as described in
UMRA, 2 U.S.C. 1531-1538 and does not significantly or uniquely affect
small governments. The action imposes no enforceable duty on any state,
local, or tribal governments or the private sector.

E. Executive Order 13132: Federalism

    This action 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. The
division of responsibility between the Federal Government and the
states for purposes of implementing the NAAQS is established under the
CAA.

F. Executive Order 13175: Consultation and Coordination With Indian
Tribal Governments

    This action has tribal implications. However, it will neither
impose substantial direct compliance costs on federally recognized
tribal governments, nor preempt tribal law.
    The EPA has identified two tribal areas located within the Imperial
County nonattainment area, which is the subject of this action
determining the area would have attained the 2015 ozone NAAQS, but for
emissions emanating from outside the United States. The EPA invited the
Quechan Tribe of the Fort Yuma Indian

Reservation and the Torres Martinez Desert Cahuilla Indians to engage
in government-to-government consultation in advance of our proposed
action and communicated with the tribes after the Agency issued the
proposed rule. The EPA did not receive any requests to consult on this
action.

G. Executive Order 13045: Protection of Children From Environmental
Health and Safety Risks

    The EPA interprets Executive Order 13045 as applying to those
regulatory actions that concern environmental health or safety risks
that the EPA has reason to believe may disproportionately affect
children, per the definition of ``covered regulatory action'' in
section 2-202 of the Executive order. This action 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 action is not subject to Executive Order 13211 because it is
not a significant regulatory action under Executive Order 12866.

I. National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act (NTTAA)

    This rulemaking does not involve technical 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. The EPA's evaluation of this issue is
contained in the section of the preamble to the proposed rule titled
``Environmental Justice Considerations.''

K. Congressional Review Act (CRA)

    This rulemaking is exempt from the CRA because it is a rulemaking
of particular applicability. The rulemaking makes factual
determinations for specific entities and does not directly regulate any
entities. The determination of attainment does not in itself create any
new requirements beyond what is mandated by the CAA.

L. Judicial Review

    Under section 307(b)(1) of the Clean Air Act, petitions for
judicial review of this action must be filed in the United States Court
of Appeals for the appropriate circuit by December 19, 2022. Filing a
petition for reconsideration by the Administrator of this final action
does not affect the finality of this action for the purposes of
judicial review nor does it extend the time within which a petition for
judicial review may be filed and shall not postpone the effectiveness
of such rule or action. This action may not be challenged later in
proceedings to enforce its requirements. (See section 307(b)(2).)
