40 CFR Part 52

[EPA-R09-OAR-2015-0542; FRL-9933-52-Region 9]

Revision of Air Quality Implementation Plan; California; Feather
River Air Quality Management District; Stationary Source Permits

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Direct final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is taking direct
final action to approve a revision to the Feather River Air Quality
Management District (FRAQMD) portion of the California State
Implementation Plan (SIP). This revision concerns a permitting rule
that regulates construction and modification of stationary sources of
air pollution. These revisions correct deficiencies in FRAQMD Rule
10.1, New Source Review, previously identified by EPA in a final rule
dated September 24, 2013. We are approving revisions that correct the
identified deficiencies.

DATES: This rule is effective on December 4, 2015 without further
notice, unless EPA receives adverse comments by November 4, 2015. If we
receive such comments, we will publish a timely withdrawal in the
Federal Register to notify the public that this direct final rule will
not take effect.

ADDRESSES: Submit comments, identified by docket number EPA-R09-OAR-
2015-0542, by one of the following methods:

I. The State's Submittal

A. What rule did the State submit?

    Table 1 lists the rule we are approving with the date it was
adopted by the local air agency and submitted to EPA by the California
Air Resources Board (CARB).

                                             Table 1--Submitted Rule
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
          Local agency                 Rule No.           Rule title            Amended            Submitted
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FRAQMD..........................               10.1   New Source Review.           10/06/14            11/06/14
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    On December 18, 2014, EPA determined that the submittal for FRAQMD
Rule 10.1 met the completeness criteria in 40 CFR part 51, appendix V,
including evidence of public adoption of this regulation, which must be
met before formal EPA review.

B. Are there other versions of this rule?

    EPA approved a previous version of Rule 10.1, into the SIP on
September 24, 2013 (78 FR 58460).

C. What is the purpose of the submitted rule revision?

    Section 110(a)(2) of the CAA requires that each SIP include, among
other things, a preconstruction permit program to provide for
regulation of the construction and modification of stationary sources
within the areas covered by the plan as necessary to assure that the
National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) are achieved, including
a permit program as required in parts C and D of title I of the CAA.
For areas designated as nonattainment for one or more NAAQS, the SIP
must include preconstruction permit requirements for new or modified
major stationary sources of such nonattainment pollutant(s), commonly
referred to as ``Nonattainment New Source Review'' or ``NNSR.'' CAA
172(c)(5).
    The jurisdiction of the FRAQMD consists of two counties, Yuba and
Sutter, and contains two nonattainment areas. See 40 CFR 81.305. The
first nonattainment area is the ``Sutter Buttes'' area, which consists
of the area located in the District which is above 2000 feet of
elevation. This area is designated nonattainment for the 2008 ozone
NAAQS.
    The second nonattainment area is the south ``Sutter'' area, which
is part of the Sacramento Metro Nonattainment Area. This area is also
designated nonattainment for the 2008 ozone NAAQS.
    Since the District adopted the latest revisions to Rule 10.1, the
``Yuba City-Marysville'' area, which consists of all of Sutter County
and a portion of Yuba County, has been redesignated as attainment for
the 2006 PM2.5 NAAQS. See 79 FR 72981 (December 9, 2014).
    Because of the nonattainment areas located in the FRAQMD, the
District is required under part D of title I of the Act to adopt and
implement a SIP-approved NNSR program for the nonattainment portions of
Yuba and Sutter Counties that applies, at a minimum, to new or modified
major stationary sources of the following pollutants: Volatile organic
compounds (VOCs), and nitrogen oxides (NOX).\1\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ VOCs and NOX are subject to NNSR as ozone precursors. See 40
CFR 51.165(a)(1)(xxxvii)(C).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Rule 10.1, New Source Review, implements the NNSR requirements
under part D of title I of the CAA for new or modified major stationary
sources of nonattainment pollutants. FRAQMD amended and submitted Rule
10.1 to correct minor program deficiencies identified by EPA on
September 24, 2013 (78 FR 58460).

II. EPA's Evaluation and Action

A. How is EPA evaluating the rule?

    EPA has reviewed the submitted permitting rule for compliance with
the CAA's general requirements for SIPs in CAA section 110(a)(2), EPA's
regulations for nonattainment stationary source permit programs in 40
CFR 51.165, and the CAA requirements for SIP revisions in CAA section
110(l).

B. Does the rule meet the evaluation criteria?

    Our September 24, 2013 action identified two deficiencies in Rule
10.1. First, Sections B.4 and B.5 contained language that was too broad
because it exempted certain pollutants from all the requirements in
Section E, if EPA redesignated the area from nonattainment to
attainment, instead of only exempting those pollutants from the
requirements for major sources. Second, the definition of ``NSR
Regulated Pollutant'' did not specify that the term included gaseous
emissions which condense to form either PM10 or
PM2.5, respectively.
    The first deficiency was corrected by narrowing the language
contained in Sections B.4 and B.5 to only exempt a source from the
requirements of Sections E.1.b, E.2.a.2, E.5, E.7 and E.8, which apply
to major sources emitting nonattainment pollutants, if EPA re-
designates any of the nonattainment portions of the District to
attainment for PM2.5 or ozone.
    The second deficiency was corrected by adding a second sentence to
both Sections D.34 and D.35, which reads as follows: ``Gaseous
emissions which condense to form particulate matter at ambient
temperatures shall be included.'' Adding this sentence to each section
clarifies that condensable gases emissions, which condense to form
either PM10 or PM2.5, must be counted as
PM10 or PM2.5, respectively.
    With respect to procedures, CAA sections 110(a) and 110(l) require
that revisions to a SIP be adopted by the State after reasonable notice
and public hearing. EPA has promulgated specific procedural
requirements for SIP revisions in 40 CFR part 51, subpart F. These
requirements include publication of notices, by prominent advertisement
in the relevant geographic area, a public comment period of at least 30
days, and an opportunity for a public hearing.
    Based on our review of the public process documentation included in
CARB's November 6, 2014 submittal, we find that the State has provided
sufficient evidence of public notice and opportunity for comment and
public hearing prior to adoption and submittal of this rule to EPA.
    With respect to substantive requirements, EPA has reviewed the
submitted rule in accordance with the CAA and regulatory requirements
that apply to NNSR permit programs under part D of title I of the Act.
Based on our evaluation of this rule, as summarized in the Public
Comment and Final Action section of this notice, we find that the rule
meets the CAA and regulatory requirements for NNSR permit programs in
part D of title I of the Act and EPA's NNSR implementing regulations in
40 CFR 51.165 for new or modified major stationary sources proposing to
locate within the District. Final approval of Rule 10.1 would correct
all deficiencies in FRAQMD's permit program identified in our September
24, 2013 final rule. 78 FR 58460.

C. Public Comment and Final Action

    As authorized in section 110(k)(3) of the Act, EPA is fully
approving the submitted rule because we believe it fulfills all
relevant requirements. We do not think anyone will object to this
approval, so we are finalizing it without proposing it in advance.
However, in the Proposed Rules section of this Federal Register, we are
simultaneously proposing approval of the same submitted rule. If we
receive adverse comments by November 4, 2015, we will publish a timely
withdrawal in the Federal Register to notify the public that the direct
final approval will not take effect and we will address the comments in
a subsequent final action based on the proposal. If we do not receive
timely adverse comments, the direct final approval will be effective
without further notice on December 4, 2015. This will incorporate the
rule into the federally enforceable SIP.
    Please note that if EPA receives adverse comment on an amendment,
paragraph, or section of this rule and if that provision may be severed
from the remainder of the rule, EPA may adopt as final those provisions
of the rule that are not the subject of an adverse comment.

III. Incorporation by Reference

    In this rule, the EPA is finalizing regulatory text that includes
incorporation by reference. In accordance with requirements of 1 CFR
51.5, the EPA is incorporating by reference the FRAQMD Rule 10.1, as
discussed in section I.A of this preamble. The EPA has made, and will

continue to make, these documents generally available electronically
through www.regulations.gov and/or in hard copy at the appropriate EPA
office (see the ADDRESSES section of this preamble for more
information).

IV. 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 Clean Air Act.
Accordingly, this action merely approves state law as meeting Federal
requirements and does not impose additional requirements beyond those
imposed by state law. For that reason, this action:
     Is not a significant regulatory action subject to review
by the Office of Management and Budget under Executive Orders 12866 (58
FR 51735, October 4, 1993) and 13563 (76 FR 3821, January 21, 2011);
     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 Clean Air Act; and
     does not provide EPA with the discretionary authority to
address, as appropriate, disproportionate human health or environmental
effects, using practicable and legally permissible methods, under
Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).
    In addition, 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 and will not impose
substantial direct costs on tribal governments or preempt tribal law as
specified by Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000).
    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 action 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).
    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 4, 2015. Filing a
petition for reconsideration by the Administrator of this final rule
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)).

Airworthiness Directives; Bombardier, Inc., Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

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

SUMMARY: The FAA proposes to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD)
for all Bombardier, Inc., Model BD-100-1A10 airplanes. This proposed AD
was prompted by a report that the design of the spoiler control system
causes certain engine indication and crew alerting system (EICAS)
messages to be posted intermittently and repetitively during flight and
on the ground, and flightcrews must action the appropriate checklist
each time these messages appear. This proposed AD would require
revising the Non-Normal Procedures section of the existing airplane
flight manual (AFM) associated with the spoiler electronic control unit
(SECU) EICAS messages. The FAA is proposing this AD to address the
unsafe condition on these products.

DATES: The FAA must receive comments on this proposed AD by January 10,
2022.

ADDRESSES: You may send comments, using the procedures found in 14 CFR
11.43 and 11.45, by any of the following methods:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Comments Invited

    The FAA invites you to send any written relevant data, views, or
arguments about this proposal. Send your comments to an address listed
under ADDRESSES. Include ``Docket No. FAA-2021-1014; Project Identifier
MCAI-2021-00428-T'' at the beginning of your comments. The most helpful
comments reference a specific portion of the proposal, explain the
reason for any recommended change, and include supporting data. The FAA
will consider all comments received by the closing date and may amend
the proposal because of those comments.
    Except for Confidential Business Information (CBI) as described in
the following paragraph, and other information as described in 14 CFR
11.35, the FAA will post all comments received, without change, to
https://www.regulations.gov, including any personal information you
provide. The agency will also post a report summarizing each
substantive verbal contact received about this NPRM.

Confidential Business Information

    CBI is commercial or financial information that is both customarily
and actually treated as private by its owner. Under the Freedom of
Information Act (FOIA) (5 U.S.C. 552), CBI is exempt from public
disclosure. If your comments responsive to this NPRM contain commercial
or financial information that is customarily treated as private, that
you actually treat as private, and that is relevant or responsive to
this NPRM, it is important that you clearly designate the submitted
comments as CBI. Please mark each page of your submission containing
CBI as ``PROPIN.'' The FAA will treat such marked submissions as
confidential under the FOIA, and they will not be placed in the public
docket of this NPRM. Submissions containing CBI should be sent to
Thomas Niczky, Aerospace Engineer, Avionics and Electrical Systems
Section, FAA, New York ACO Branch, 1600 Stewart Avenue, Suite 410,
Westbury, NY 11590; telephone<PHONE_NUMBER>; fax<PHONE_NUMBER>; email [email protected]. Any commentary that the FAA receives which is
not specifically designated as CBI will be placed in the public docket
for this rulemaking.

Background

    Transport Canada Civil Aviation (TCCA), which is the aviation
authority for Canada, has issued TCCA AD CF-2021-14, dated April 7,
2021 (also referred to after this as the Mandatory Continuing
Airworthiness Information, or the MCAI), to correct an unsafe condition
for all Bombardier, Inc., Model BD-100-1A10 airplanes. You may examine
the MCAI in the AD docket at https://www.regulations.gov by searching
for and locating Docket No. FAA-2021-1014.
    This proposed AD was prompted by a report that the design of the
spoiler control system causes certain EICAS messages to be posted
intermittently and repetitively during flight and on the ground, and
flightcrews must action the appropriate checklist each time these
messages appear. The FAA is proposing this AD to address intermittent
and

repetitive messaging, which increases overall workload and introduces a
risk that flightcrews could become desensitized over time to the
messages. This could result in the required checklist not being carried
out or completed, and could adversely affect the airplane's continued
safe flight and landing. See the MCAI for additional background
information.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    Bombardier has issued the following AFM procedures, which include a
Caution and a Note to the SPOILERS FAULT (C) Non-Normal Procedures, to
reinforce the importance of completing the procedure in its entirety
each time the message appears.
     Section 05-23, Flight Controls, of Chapter 05, Non-Normal
Procedures, of the Bombardier Challenger 300 (Imperial Version)
Airplane Flight Manual, Publication No. CSP 100-1, Revision 61, dated
September 25, 2020. (For obtaining this section of the Bombardier
Challenger 300 (Imperial Version) Airplane Flight Manual, Publication
No. CSP 100-1, use Document Identification No. CH 300 AFM-I.)
     Section 05-23, Flight Controls, of Chapter 05, Non-Normal
Procedures, of the Bombardier Challenger 350 Airplane Flight Manual,
Publication No. CH 350 AFM, Revision 27, dated September 25, 2020.
    These documents are distinct since they apply to different airplane
configurations. This service information is reasonably available
because the interested parties have access to it through their normal
course of business or by the means identified in the ADDRESSES section.

FAA's Determination

    This product has been approved by the aviation authority of another
country, and is approved for operation in the United States. Pursuant
to the FAA's bilateral agreement with the State of Design Authority,
the FAA has been notified of the unsafe condition described in the MCAI
and service information referenced above. The FAA is proposing this AD
because the FAA evaluated all the relevant information and determined
the unsafe condition described previously is likely to exist or develop
on other products of the same type design.

Proposed AD Requirements in This NPRM

    This proposed AD would require revising the AFMs already described.

Costs of Compliance

    The FAA estimates that this AD, if adopted as proposed, would
affect 654 airplanes of U.S. registry. The FAA estimates the following
costs to comply with this proposed AD:

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

Authority for This Rulemaking

    Title 49 of the United States Code specifies the FAA's authority to
issue rules on aviation safety. Subtitle I, section 106, describes the
authority of the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII: Aviation Programs,
describes in more detail the scope of the Agency's authority.
    The FAA is issuing this rulemaking under the authority described in
Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart III, Section 44701: General requirements.
Under that section, Congress charges the FAA with promoting safe flight
of civil aircraft in air commerce by prescribing regulations for
practices, methods, and procedures the Administrator finds necessary
for safety in air commerce. This regulation is within the scope of that
authority because it addresses an unsafe condition that is likely to
exist or develop on products identified in this rulemaking action.

Regulatory Findings

    The FAA determined that this proposed AD would not have federalism
implications under Executive Order 13132. This proposed AD would not
have 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.
    For the reasons discussed above, I certify this proposed
regulation:
    (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive
Order 12866,
    (2) Would not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska, and
    (3) Would not have a significant economic impact, positive or
negative, on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria
of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

The Proposed Amendment

    Accordingly, under the authority delegated to me by the
Administrator, the FAA proposes to amend 14 CFR part 39 as follows:

PART 39--AIRWORTHINESS DIRECTIVES

0
1. The authority citation for part 39 continues to read as follows:

    Authority:  49 U.S.C. 106(g), 40113, 44701.

Sec.  39.13  [Amended]

0
2. The FAA amends Sec.  39.13 by adding the following new airworthiness
directive:

Bombardier, Inc.: Docket No. FAA-2021-1014; Project Identifier MCAI-
2021-00428-T.

(a) Comments Due Date

    The FAA must receive comments on this airworthiness directive
(AD) by January 10, 2022.

(b) Affected ADs

    None.

(c) Applicability

    This AD applies to all Bombardier, Inc., Model BD-100-1A10
airplanes.

(d) Subject

    Air Transport Association (ATA) of America Code 27, Flight
controls.

(e) Unsafe Condition

    This AD was prompted by a report that the design of the spoiler
control system causes certain engine indication and crew alerting
system (EICAS) messages to be posted intermittently and repetitively
during flight and on the ground, and flightcrews must action the
appropriate checklist each time these messages appear. The FAA is
issuing this AD to address intermittent and repetitive messaging,
which increases overall workload and introduces a risk that
flightcrews could become desensitized over time to the messages.
This could result in the required checklist not being carried out or
completed, and could adversely affect the airplane's continued safe
flight and landing.

(f) Compliance

    Comply with this AD within the compliance times specified,
unless already done.

(g) Revision of the Airplane Flight Manual (AFM)

    Within 60 days after the effective date of this AD: Revise the
existing AFM to incorporate the information specified in Section 05-
23, Flight Controls, of Chapter 05, Non-Normal Procedures, of the
AFM revisions specified in paragraphs (g)(1) and (2) of this AD, as
applicable.
    (1) Bombardier Challenger 300 (Imperial Version) Airplane Flight
Manual, Publication No. CSP 100-1, Revision 61, dated September 25,
2020.
    Note 1 to paragraph (g)(1): For obtaining this section of the
Bombardier Challenger 300 (Imperial Version) Airplane Flight Manual,
Publication No. CSP 100-1, use Document Identification No. CH 300
AFM-I.
    (2) Bombardier Challenger 350 Airplane Flight Manual,
Publication No. CH 350 AFM, Revision 27, dated September 25, 2020.

(h) Other FAA AD Provisions

    The following provisions also apply to this AD:
    (1) Alternative Methods of Compliance (AMOCs) The Manager, New
York ACO Branch, FAA, has the authority to approve AMOCs for this
AD, if requested using the procedures found in 14 CFR 39.19. In
