Approval of Air Quality Implementation Plans; California; San
Joaquin Valley Unified Air Pollution Control District; Prevention of
Significant Deterioration

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing approval of a permitting rule submitted for
the San Joaquin Valley Unified Air Pollution Control District
(District) portion of the California State Implementation Plan (SIP).
The State is required under Part C of title I of the Clean Air Act (CAA
or Act) to adopt and implement a SIP-approved Prevention of Significant
Deterioration (PSD) permit program. This SIP revision proposes to
incorporate District Rule 2410--Prevention of Significant
Deterioration--into the SIP to establish a PSD permit program for pre-
construction review of certain new and modified major stationary
sources in attainment or unclassifiable areas. The District is
currently attainment or unclassifiable for the PM10,
NO2, CO, and lead National Ambient Air Quality Standards
(NAAQS). We are soliciting public comments on this proposal and plan to
follow with a final action after consideration of comments received.

DATES: Any comments must be submitted no later than July 2, 2012.

I. The State's Submittal

A. What rule did the State submit?

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

                                                      Deterioration.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    CAA section 110(k)(1)(B) requires EPA to determine whether a SIP
submittal is complete within 60 days of receipt. This section also
provides that any SIP submittal that we have not affirmatively
determined to be complete or incomplete will become complete by
operation of law six months after the day of submittal. The August 23,
2011 submittal of the District's PSD regulation became complete by
operation of law on February 23, 2012.

B. Are there other versions of this rule?

    There are no previous versions of Rule 2410 in the California SIP.
The District originally adopted Rule 2410 on June 16, 2011 and it has
not been revised since that date.

C. What is the purpose of the submitted rule?

    Section 110(a) of the CAA requires states to adopt and submit
regulations for the implementation, maintenance and enforcement of the
primary and secondary NAAQS. Specifically, section 110(a)(2)(J)
requires the state's plan to meet the applicable requirements of
section 165 relating to a pre-construction permit program for the
prevention of significant deterioration of air quality and visibility
protection. The purpose of District Rule 2410--Prevention of
Significant Deterioration, is to implement a pre-construction PSD
permit program as required by section 165 of the CAA for certain new
and modified major stationary sources located in attainment areas.
Because the State does not currently have a SIP-approved PSD program
within the District, EPA is currently the PSD permitting authority in
the District. Inclusion of this rule into the SIP will transfer PSD
permitting authority from EPA to the District. EPA would then assume
the role of overseeing the District's PSD permitting program, as
intended by the CAA.

II. EPA's Evaluation and Action

A. How is EPA evaluating this rule?

    The relevant statutory provisions for our review of the submitted
rules include CAA sections 110(a), 110(l), and 165 and Part 51, section
166 of title 40 of the Code of Federal Regulations (40 CFR 51.166).
Section 110(a) requires, among other things, that SIP rules be
enforceable, while section 110(l) precludes EPA approval of SIP
revisions that would interfere with any applicable requirements
concerning attainment and reasonable further progress. Section 165 of
the CAA requires states to adopt a pre-construction permitting program
for certain new and modified major stationary sources located in
attainment or unclassifiable areas. 40 CFR 51.166 establishes the
specific requirements for SIP-approved PSD permit programs that must be
met to satisfy the requirements of section 165 of the CAA.

B. Does the rule meet the evaluation criteria?

    With some exclusions and revisions, Rule 2410 incorporates by
reference EPA's PSD permit program at 40 CFR 52.21, as of June 16,
2011. We generally consider the EPA's PSD permit program to be
consistent with the criteria in 40 CFR 51.166. However, we conducted a
review of Rule 2410 to ensure that all requirements of 40 CFR 51.166
are met. Our evaluation is available as an attachment to the technical
support document (TSD) for this rulemaking. We also reviewed the
revisions the District made to the provisions of 40 CFR 52.21 that were
incorporated by reference into Rule 2410, such as revising certain
terms and definitions to reflect that the District, rather than the
EPA, will be the PSD permitting authority. Rule 2410 also relies on the
existing SIP-approved public notice requirements contained in Rule
2201--New Source Review. In addition, we reviewed revisions made to 40
CFR 51.166 and 52.21 after the District adopted Rule 2410. Please see
the TSD for additional information. Based on our review of Rule 2410
and confirmation from the District, in a letter dated May 18, 2012,
regarding its implementation procedures and commitment to revise Rule
2410 in the future for clarity, we are proposing to find the SIP
revision acceptable under CAA sections 110(a), 110(l) and 165 and 40
CFR 51.166.
    EPA's TSD for this rulemaking has more information about this rule,
including our evaluation and recommendation to approve it into the SIP.

C. Transfer of Existing EPA-Issued PSD Permits

    The District has also requested approval to exercise its authority
to administer the PSD program with respect to those sources located in
the District that have existing PSD permits issued by EPA. This would
include authority to conduct general administration of these existing
permits, authority to process and issue any and all subsequent PSD
permit actions relating to such permits (e.g., modifications,
amendments, or revisions of any nature), and authority to enforce such
permits. Pursuant to the criteria under section 110(a)(2)(E)(i) of the
CAA, we have determined that the District has the authority, personnel,
and funding to implement the PSD program within the District for
existing EPA-issued permits. Concurrent with EPA's approval of the
District's PSD program into the SIP, the EPA-issued permits would be
transferred to the

District. A list of these EPA-issued permits is provided as an
attachment to the TSD. EPA intends to provide a copy of each permit to
the District prior to the effective date of the final SIP approval.
    In order to promote an orderly transition of the PSD program from
the EPA to the District, the efficient use of the District's and EPA's
resources, and certainty for the regulated community and the public,
EPA proposes to retain PSD permit implementation authority for those
specific sources within the District that have submitted PSD permit
applications to EPA and for which EPA has issued a proposed permit
decision, but for which final agency action and/or the exhaustion of
all administrative and judicial appeals processes (including any
associated remand actions) have been not yet been concluded or
completed upon the effective date of EPA's final action on Rule 2410.
The District would assume full PSD responsibility for the
administration and implementation of such PSD permits immediately upon
notification from EPA that all administrative and judicial appeals
processes and any associated remand actions have been completed or
concluded for any such permit application.

D. Public Comment and Proposed Action

    Because EPA believes the submitted rule fulfills all relevant
requirements, we are proposing to fully approve it as a revision to the
SIP pursuant to section 110(k)(3) of the Act. Specifically, we are
proposing to approve District Rule 2410--Prevention of Significant
Deterioration, as adopted by the District on June 16, 2011 and
submitted by CARB on August 23, 2011.
    We will accept comments from the public on this proposal until July
2, 2012.

III. 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 proposed 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 proposed action:
     Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' subject to
review by the Office of Management and Budget under Executive Order
12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993);
     Does not impose an information collection burden under the
provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.);
     Is certified as not having a significant economic impact
on a substantial number of small entities under the Regulatory
Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.);
     Does not contain any unfunded mandate or significantly or
uniquely affect small governments, as described in the Unfunded
Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-4);
     Does not have Federalism implications as specified in
Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999);
     Is not an economically significant regulatory action based
on health or safety risks subject to Executive Order 13045 (62 FR
19885, April 23, 1997);
     Is not a significant regulatory action subject to
Executive Order 13211 (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001);
     Is not subject to requirements of Section 12(d) of the
National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272
note) because application of those requirements would be inconsistent
with the Clean Air Act; and
     Does not provide EPA with the discretionary authority to
address disproportionate human health or environmental effects with
practical, appropriate, and legally permissible methods under Executive
Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).
    In addition, this proposed rule does not have tribal implications
as specified by Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000),
because the SIP is not approved to apply in Indian country located in
the State, and EPA notes that it will not impose substantial direct
costs on tribal governments or preempt tribal law.

RIN 2120-AA64

Airworthiness Directives; Airbus SAS Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

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

SUMMARY: We propose to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2005-17-
14, which applies to all Airbus SAS Model A300 series airplanes; Model
A300 B4-600, B4-600R, and F4-600R series airplanes, and Model A300 C4-

605R Variant F airplanes (collectively called Model A300-600 series
airplanes); and Model A310 series airplanes. AD 2005-17-14 requires
repetitive tests to detect desynchronization of the rudder servo
actuators, and adjustment or replacement of the spring rods of the
rudder servo actuators, if necessary. AD 2005-17-14 also requires
repetitive tests/inspections/analyses of the rudder servo actuators,
and related investigative/corrective actions if necessary. Since we
issued AD 2005-17-14, analyses of the inspection results indicated that
the assumptions made to establish the survey campaign were not
adequate, and a new investigation determined the existing inspection
procedures and compliance times do not adequately address the unsafe
condition. This proposed AD would retain some requirements of AD 2005-
17-14 and revise the inspection procedures and compliance times, as
specified in an European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) AD, which will
be incorporated by reference. We are proposing this AD to address the
unsafe condition on these products.

DATES: We must receive comments on this proposed AD by July 25, 2019.

ADDRESSES: You may send comments, using the procedures found in 14 CFR

Discussion

    We issued AD 2005-17-14, Amendment 39-14235 (70 FR 50157, August
26, 2005) (``AD 2005-17-14''), for all Airbus SAS Model A300 series
airplanes, Model A300-600 series airplanes, and Model A310 series
airplanes. AD 2005-17-14 requires repetitive tests to detect
desynchronization of the rudder servo actuators, and adjustment or
replacement of the spring rods of the rudder servo actuators, if
necessary; and repetitive tests, inspections, and analyses of the
rudder servo actuators, and related investigative and corrective
actions if necessary. AD 2005-17-14 resulted from new reports of
desynchronization of the rudder servo actuators. We issued AD 2005-17-
14 to address desynchronization of one of the three rudder servo
actuators, which, if combined with an engine failure, could result in
the loss of the related hydraulic system and could cause the loss of
one of the two synchronized actuators. This condition could create
additional fatigue loading and possible cracking of the attachment
fittings and could result in the inability of the remaining
synchronized actuator to maintain the commanded rudder deflection,
leading to reduced controllability of the airplane.

Actions Since AD 2005-17-14 Was Issued

    Since we issued AD 2005-17-14, EASA reported that analyses of the
inspection results indicate that the assumptions made in 2004 to
establish the survey campaign were not adequate. This determination led
to investigation and revision of the service information with revised
inspection instructions and compliance times, depending on airplane
configuration.
    The EASA, which is the Technical Agent for the Member States of the
European Union, has issued EASA AD 2019-0017, dated January 29, 2019
(``EASA AD 2019-0017'') (also referred to as the Mandatory Continuing
Airworthiness Information, or ``the MCAI''), to correct an unsafe
condition for all Airbus SAS Model A300 series airplanes, Model A300-
600 series airplanes, and Model A310 series airplanes. The MCAI states:

    Numerous occurrences were reported of rudder servo control de-
synchronization, some of which had caused structural damages to the
fin or side fittings of the rudder actuator attachments. Analyses
revealed that a de-synchronization of the rudder servo control
induced by misalignment of the three servo controls, or by thermal
expansion, can provoke opposing loads.
    This condition, if not detected and corrected, could induce
failure of rudder-associated systems, possibly resulting in reduced
control of the aeroplane.
    Previously, DGAC [Direction G[eacute]n[eacute]rale de l'Aviation
Civile] France issued AD F-2004-063 for A300-600ST aeroplanes, and
AD F-2004-092 (EASA approval 2004-6368) [which corresponds to FAA AD
2005-17-14] for A300, A310 and A300-600 aeroplanes, to require
repetitive inspections of rudder servo controls, fin box and rudder
structures, and, depending on findings, accomplishment of applicable
corrective action(s).
    Since those ADs were issued, analyses of the inspection results
indicate that the assumptions made in 2004 to establish the survey
campaign were not adequate. This determination induced new
investigation and ATA 55 SBs [service bulletins] revision with new
inspection instructions and new

compliance times, depending on aeroplane configuration.
    For the reason described above, this [EASA] AD retains partially
the requirements of DGAC France AD F-2004-063 and AD F-2004-092
(EASA approval 2004-6368), which are superseded, and requires the
new inspections (latest SB revision) at new intervals.

    The new repetitive intervals for the inspections specified in
paragraph (2) of EASA AD 2019-0017 range from 300 flight cycles to
6,000 flight cycles, depending on inspection type.

Explanation of Retained Requirements

    Although this proposed AD does not explicitly restate the
requirements of AD 2005-17-14, this proposed AD would retain certain
requirements of AD 2005-17-14. Those requirements are referenced in
EASA AD 2019-0017, which, in turn, is referenced in paragraph (g) of
this proposed AD.

Related IBR Material Under 1 CFR Part 51

    EASA AD 2019-0017 describes procedures for repetitive inspections
of the rudder servo actuators and related investigative/corrective
actions. Related investigative actions include repetitive inspections
of fin box and rudder servo controls. Corrective actions include
repair. This material 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 and Requirements of This Proposed AD

    This product has been approved by the aviation authority of another
country, and is approved for operation in the United States. Pursuant
to our bilateral agreement with the State of Design Authority, we have
been notified of the unsafe condition described in the MCAI referenced
above. We are proposing this AD because we evaluated all pertinent
information and determined an unsafe condition exists and is likely to
exist or develop on other products of the same type design.

Proposed Requirements of This NPRM

    This proposed AD would require accomplishing the actions specified
in EASA AD 2019-0017 described previously, as incorporated by
reference, except for any differences identified as exceptions in the
regulatory text of this AD and except as discussed under ``Differences
Between this Proposed AD and the MCAI.''

Explanation of Required Compliance Information

    In the FAA's ongoing efforts to improve the efficiency of the AD
process, the FAA worked with Airbus and EASA to develop a process to
use certain EASA ADs as the primary source of information for
compliance with requirements for corresponding FAA ADs. As a result,
EASA AD 2019-0017 will be incorporated by reference in the FAA final
rule. This proposed AD would, therefore, require compliance with the
provisions specified in EASA AD 2019-0017, except for any differences
identified as exceptions in the regulatory text of this proposed AD.
Service information specified in EASA AD 2019-0017 that is required for
compliance with EASA AD 2019-0017 will be available on the internet
http://www.regulations.gov by searching for and locating Docket No.
FAA-2019-0402 after the FAA final rule is published.

Differences Between This Proposed AD and the MCAI

    Where paragraph (4) of EASA AD 2019-0017 refers to ``during any
inspection as required by paragraph (2) of this AD,'' this proposed AD
would require using ``during any inspection as required by paragraph
(2) or (3) of this AD.'' EASA AD 2019-0017 did not specify a corrective
action for the inspections required by paragraph (3) of EASA AD 2019-
0017.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this proposed AD affects 133 airplanes of U.S.
registry. We estimate the following costs to comply with this proposed
AD:

    We estimate that it would take about 1 work-hour per product to
comply with the proposed reporting requirement in this proposed AD. The
average labor rate is $85 per hour. Based on these figures, we estimate
the cost of reporting the inspection results on U.S. operators to be
$11,305, or $85 per product.
    We estimate the following costs to do any necessary on-condition
inspections that would be required based on the results of any required
actions. We have no way of determining the number of aircraft that
might need these on-condition actions:

    We have received no definitive data that would enable us to provide
cost estimates for the on-condition repair specified in this proposed
AD.

Paperwork Reduction Act

    A federal agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not
required to respond to, nor shall a person be subject to penalty for
failure to comply with a collection of information subject to the
requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act unless that collection of
information displays a current valid OMB control number. The control
number for the collection of information required by this NPRM is 2120-
0056. The paperwork cost associated with this NPRM has been detailed in
the Costs of

Compliance section of this document and includes time for reviewing
instructions, as well as completing and reviewing the collection of
information. Therefore, all reporting associated with this NPRM is
mandatory. Comments concerning the accuracy of this burden and
suggestions for reducing the burden should be directed to the FAA at
800 Independence Ave. SW, Washington, DC 20591, ATTN: Information
Collection Clearance Officer, AES-200.

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.
    We are 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.
    This proposed AD is issued in accordance with authority delegated
by the Executive Director, Aircraft Certification Service, as
authorized by FAA Order 8000.51C. In accordance with that order,
issuance of ADs is normally a function of the Compliance and
Airworthiness Division, but during this transition period, the
Executive Director has delegated the authority to issue ADs applicable
to transport category airplanes and associated appliances to the
Director of the System Oversight Division.

Regulatory Findings

    We 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. Is not a ``significant rule'' under the DOT Regulatory Policies
and Procedures (44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979);
    3. Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska; and
    4. Will not have a significant economic impact, positive or
negative, on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria
of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 39

    Air transportation, Aircraft, Aviation safety, Incorporation by
reference, Safety.

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 removing Airworthiness Directive (AD)
2005-17-14, Amendment 39-14235 (70 FR 50157, August 26, 2005), and
adding the following new AD:

Airbus SAS: Docket No. FAA-2019-0402; Product Identifier 2019-NM-
008-AD.

(a) Comments Due Date

    We must receive comments by July 25, 2019.

(b) Affected ADs

    This AD replaces AD 2005-17-14, Amendment 39-14235 (70 FR 50157,
August 26, 2005) (``AD 2005-17-14'').

(c) Applicability

    This AD applies to the Airbus SAS airplanes, certificated in any
category, specified in paragraphs (c)(1) through (c)(3) of this AD,
as identified in European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) AD 2019-
0017, dated January 29, 2019 (``EASA AD 2019-0017'').
    (1) Model A300 B2-1A, B2-1C, B2K-3C, B2-203, B4-2C, B4-103, and
B4-203 airplanes.
    (2) Model A300 B4-601, B4-603, B4-620, B4-622, B4-605R, B4-622R,
F4-605R and F4-622R airplanes, and Model A300 C4-605R Variant F
airplanes.
    (3) Model A310-203, -204, -221, -222, -304, -322, -324, and -325
airplanes.

(d) Subject

    Air Transport Association (ATA) of America Code 27, Flight
controls; 55, Stabilizers.

(e) Reason

    This AD was prompted by reports of desynchronization of the
rudder servo actuators. We are issuing this AD to address
desynchronization of one of the three rudder servo actuators, which,
if combined with an engine failure, could result in the loss of the
related hydraulic system and could cause the loss of one of the two
synchronized actuators. This condition could create additional
fatigue loading and possible cracking of the attachment fittings and
could result in the inability of the remaining synchronized actuator
to maintain the commanded rudder deflection, leading to reduced
controllability of the airplane.

(f) Compliance

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

(g) Requirements

    Except as specified in paragraph (h) of this AD: Comply with all
required actions and compliance times specified in, and in
accordance with, EASA AD 2019-0017.

(h) Exceptions to EASA AD 2019-0017

    (1) For purposes of determining compliance with the requirements
of this AD: Where EASA AD 2019-0017 refers to its effective date,
this AD requires using the effective date of this AD.

MEMORANDUM

DATE: 	February 26, 2013

SUBJECT:	Residential Wood Heater Cost Effectiveness Analysis

FROM:	Jill Mozier, EC/R Inc.
      Beth Friedman, EC/R Inc.

TO:		Gil Wood, EPA/OAQPS
		David Cole, EPA/OAQPS

	The purpose of this memorandum is to present our cost effectiveness (CE) analyses for emission reduction options being considered for residential wood heaters as part of the New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) review of residential wood heaters.  We analyzed the CE of two options: the proposed NSPS ("Proposal") and an alternative approach ("Alternative") that differ in the number of stepped emission limits and in the phased-in compliance dates.  These options and their underlying emission and cost assumptions have already been summarized in the emissions, unit cost, and manufacturer cost memos.  This memo will explain how we applied the derived cost and emission estimates (based on our already-documented assumptions) in our CE analyses.

   I. Application of Cost Estimates to CE Analysis
      A. 	NSPS-Related R&D, Certification, and Reporting & Recordkeeping Costs
      As noted in our manufacturer cost memo, under the Proposal scenario, one round of R&D is assumed  -  beginning in 2013 and ending in 2018  -  in order to meet the proposed Step 2 limit.  Under the Alternative scenario, two rounds of R&D are assumed for all appliances except masonry heaters (for which there is only one standard with no additional phased-in standards to meet).  It should be noted that for the second round of R&D (in the Alternative scenario), for purposes of our CE analysis, we adjusted the annualized cost because we assumed that manufacturers would use the same lab equipment purchased for the first round of R&D. Therefore the round two annualized costs exclude the laboratory equipment cost, and consequently are estimated at $61,227 (per year for 6 years) rather than the $63,850 annual estimate for round one, as shown in Table 1.
      Under both the Proposal and the Alternative, we made assumptions regarding the number of model lines that would undergo R&D and assume the related costs. In cases where we assumed less than 100% of the models would undergo R&D (e.g., wood stoves and pellet stoves), this was based on the percentage of models already meeting the proposed 2019 Step 2 limit/Alternative 2022 Step 3 limit.  In reality, more appliances than we assumed have models meeting the most stringent limit (e.g., hydronic heaters).  Furthermore, manufacturers will likely consolidate their model lines, focusing on models able to achieve the limit, rather than incur R&D costs for every existing non-compliant model line.  Notwithstanding these points, in order to reasonably estimate what might happen in our CE analyses, we assumed the following appliance model lines would incur NSPS-related R&D costs beginning in 2013:

 95% of wood stove manufacturers (with an estimated 125 models representing both catalytic and noncatalytic designs);
 70% of pellet stove manufacturers (with an estimated 125 models);
 100% of single burn rate stove manufacturers (with an estimated 20 models) would face a doubling of R&D costs in 2013 and 2014 to represent intensification of R&D efforts for this previously unregulated appliance type;
 100% of forced air furnace manufacturers (with an estimated 50 models) would face a doubling of R&D costs in 2013 and 2014 to represent intensification of R&D efforts for this previously unregulated appliance type;
 100% of hydronic heater manufacturers (with an estimated 120 models); and
 Two large masonry heater manufacturers (with an estimated 4 models) would incur R&D costs beginning in 2013 with 9 other large manufacturer models facing certification testing costs (spread out over the 5 year certification period), and the remaining 8 large manufacturer models and 85 small custom manufacturer models facing software certification costs beginning in 2013.

        Table 1. Annual Cost Summary: Development of 4 Model Fireboxes

	For the Alternative scenario, we made the further assumption that by 2017 all manufacturers (except masonry heater manufacturers who face only one stepped NSPS limit under both the Proposal and Alternative) would begin a second round of R&D for 80% of their models (i.e., we assumed that only 20% of models achieve the strictest limit in the first round of R&D).  This meant that during 2017 and 2018, we assumed an overlapping period of NSPS-related R&D amortized costs.
      As noted in the manufacturer cost memo, all manufacturers, except for wood stoves that are subject to the current 1988 NSPS, will face ongoing certification costs above baseline conditions.  However, in the 2013 to 2018 timeframe under the Proposal scenario and in the 2013 to 2022 timeframe under the Alternative scenario, we have incorporated these costs as part of the overall R&D expenditures.  After 2018 under the Proposal scenario and after 2022 under the Alternative scenario, the ongoing certification costs will be the only NSPS related costs faced by manufacturers besides ongoing reporting and recordkeeping costs.
	We based reporting and recordkeeping (R&R) costs on the annual average costs derived from development of the Information Collection Request (ICR) supporting statements.  These are annual estimates of the ongoing R&R burden to manufacturers associated with the Proposal and Alternative scenarios.  (We do not expect the R&R burden to differ substantially between the two scenarios.)

      B.	Model Design Lifespan

	We assumed a 20-year model design lifespan. We made this assumption to best characterize the actual model design lifespan given that many models developed for the 1988 NSPS are still being sold (after 25 years), and many "new" models still have the same internal working parts with merely exterior cosmetic changes.  Therefore, beyond the 6-year amortization period of the round(s) of R&D, we estimated the certification and reporting and recordkeeping costs to be incurred by manufacturers for the full 20-year model design lifespan.  Under the Proposal, we estimated costs from 2013 through 2038  -  that is, 20 years after the 2019 compliance year marking the beginning of the model lifespan designed to meet the Proposal Step 2 limit.  Under the Alternative, we estimated costs from 2013 through 2041  -  that is, 20 years after the 2022 compliance year marking the beginning of the model lifespan designed to meet the Alternative Step 3 limit.

   I. Application of Emission Estimates to CE Analysis
      A.	Baseline and NSPS emission estimates

      As noted in our emissions memo, we multiplied our tons/appliance emission estimate by the estimated number of shipments in each year to calculate total emissions from each appliance category per year.  We made this calculation under baseline conditions (i.e., in the absence of an NSPS) and under each NSPS scenario (Proposal and Alternative).  The emission estimates assume that the total number of shipped units meet the standard in the year the standard is implemented.  This simplifying assumption means that we underestimated how soon emission reductions will happen under both NSPS scenarios.  In reality, some models will meet the NSPS limits prior to the NSPS compliance year and will therefore be emitting less than baseline levels prior to that year as well.  Our emission estimates represent the assumption that models do not come into compliance until the year they are required to; therefore we do not claim emission reductions from either NSPS scenario until each compliance year.  Furthermore, based on available data for wood stoves and pellet stoves, we assumed that baseline emissions for both of these appliance types are already at the Step 1 level.  We therefore claimed no emission reductions for wood stoves and pellet stoves until the 2019 Step 2 under the Proposal and the 2017 Step 2 under the Alternative.

      B.	Appliance Emitting Lifespan

      As noted above, we assumed a 20-year model design lifespan for estimating costs.  We also assumed a 20-year appliance emitting lifespan.  This assumption was made to best characterize the actual use lifespan given that most stoves in consumer homes emit for at least 20 years and often much longer.  Our CE analysis therefore tracks emission reductions out through 2057 for the Proposal and through 2060 for the Alternative, assuming a 20 year design life for a model meeting each phased-in limit, and assuming that stoves shipped in the 20[th] year of design life will be emitting in homes for another 20 years.  Note that our CE analysis incorporates "trailing emissions" as part of our 20 year lifespan assumptions. For example, our analysis assumes that a stove shipped in 2014 will emit in homes for 20 years  -  or until 2033 (inclusive of both 2014 and 2023).  We therefore drop emissions from this stove in our analysis in year 2034.  Likewise, we drop emissions for a stove shipped in 2015 in year 2035, and so on.

   II. Resulting CE Tables
      Tables 2 through 9 show the results of our CE analyses based on PM2.5 reductions under the Proposal for each appliance, for appliances grouped by subparts AAA (Room Heaters) and QQQQ (Central Heaters), and for Subparts AAA and QQQQ combined.  Tables 10 through 17 show the results of our CE analyses based on PM2.5 reductions under the Alternative.  Each table shown is based on a 7% interest rate applied to the amortized costs during the R&D periods.  We also prepared tables based on a 3% interest rate.  Finally, we prepared both sets of tables based on VOC emissions and based on CO emissions.

      Note that, as of the date of this memo, we did not calculate the CE for masonry heaters because we were unable to estimate the tons of emissions per appliance for this appliance type; so while we estimated the NSPS-related costs we did not estimate baseline or NSPS related emissions.

online through the CAMD Business System (CBS) at   HYPERLINK
"https://camd.epa.gov/cbs/index.cfm"  https://camd.epa.gov/cbs/index.cfm
.   You must have a user ID and password.  If you need a user ID and
password, call Karen Van Sickle at<PHONE_NUMBER> or Kirk Nabors at
(202) 343-9171 or Paula Branch at<PHONE_NUMBER>.  If you have questions
about CBS, contact Laurel DeSantis at<EMAIL_ADDRESS>or (202)
343-9191, or Alex Salpeter at<EMAIL_ADDRESS>or<PHONE_NUMBER>.

Any reference in these instructions to the Designated Representative
means the Acid Rain Designated Representative, the CAIR Designated
Representative, and/or Transport Rule Designated Representative, as
applicable.  Any reference to the Alternate Designated Representative
means the Alternate Acid Rain Designated Representative, the Alternate
CAIR Designated Representative, and/or the Alternate Transport Rule
Designated Representative, as applicable.  As reflected in this form,
the Acid Rain Designated Representative, the CAIR Designated
Representative, and the Transport Rule Designated Representative for a
facility (source) must be the same individual, and the Alternate Acid
Rain Designated Representative, the Alternate CAIR Designated
Representative, and the Alternate Transport Rule Designated
Representative for a facility (source) must be the same individual.

Please type or print.  Submit a separate page 2 for each unit subject to
the Acid Rain Program, a CAIR Trading Program, or a Transport Rule
Program at the facility (source), and indicate the page order and total
number of pages (e.g., 1 of 4, 2 of 4, etc.) in the boxes in the upper
right hand corner of page 2. A Certificate of Representation amending an
earlier submission supersedes the earlier submission in its entirety and
must therefore always be complete.  Submit one Certificate of
Representation form with original signature(s).  NO FIELDS SHOULD BE
LEFT BLANK. For assistance, contact Laurel DeSantis at   HYPERLINK
<EMAIL_ADDRESS><EMAIL_ADDRESS>or (202)
343-9191.

STEP 1

(i)  A Plant Code is a 4 or 5 digit number assigned by the Department of
Energy(s (DOE) Energy Information Administration (EIA) to facilities
that generate electricity.  For older facilities, "Plant Code" is
synonymous with "ORISPL" and "Facility" codes.  If the facility
generates electricity but no Plant Code has been assigned, or if there
is uncertainty regarding what the Plant Code is, contact EIA at (202)
586-1029.  For facilities that do not produce electricity, use the
facility identifier assigned by EPA (beginning with "88").  If the
facility does not produce electricity and has not been assigned a
facility identifier, contact Laurel DeSantis at   HYPERLINK
<EMAIL_ADDRESS><EMAIL_ADDRESS>or (202)
343-9191.

 (ii) Enter the latitude and longitude representing the location of the
facility in degree decimal format.

Note that coordinates MUST be submitted in decimal degree format; in
this format minutes and seconds are represented as a decimal fraction of
one degree.  Therefore, coordinates containing degrees, minutes, and
seconds must first be converted using the formula:

	decimal degrees = degrees + (minutes / 60) + (seconds / 3600)

Example:

39 degrees, 15 minutes, 25 seconds = 39 + (15 / 60) + (25 / 3600) =
39.2569 degrees

STEPS 2 & 3

The Designated Representative and the Alternate Designated
Representative must be individuals (i.e., natural persons) and cannot be
a company.  Enter the company name and address of the representative as
it should appear on all correspondence.  If an email address is
provided, most correspondence will be emailed.  Although not required,
EPA strongly encourages owners and operators to designate an Alternate
Designated Representative to act on behalf of the Designated
Representative.

STEP 4

(i)   Complete one page for each unit subject to the Acid Rain Program,
a CAIR Trading Program, or a Transport Rule Program, and indicate the
program(s) to which the unit is subject.  Identify each unit at the
facility by providing the appropriate unit identification number,
consistent with the identifiers used in previously submitted
Certificates of Representation (if applicable) and with submissions made
to DOE and/or EIA.  Do not list duct burners.  For new units without
identification numbers, owners and operators must assign identifiers
consistent with EIA and DOE requirements.  Each submission to EPA that
includes the unit identification number(s) (e.g., monitoring plans and
quarterly reports) should reference those unit identification numbers in
exactly the same way that they are referenced on the Certificate of
Representation.  Do not identify units that are not subject to the
above-listed programs but are part of a common monitoring configuration
with a unit that is subject to any of these programs.  To identify units
in a common monitoring configuration that are not subject to any of
these programs, call the CAMD Hotline at<PHONE_NUMBER>, and leave a
message under the “Continuous Emissions Monitoring” submenu.

(ii)  Identify the type of unit using one of the following
abbreviations:

Boilers

Boilers

Turbines

AF

Arch-fired boiler

OB

If there is uncertainty about how a unit should be characterized,
contact Robert Miller at   HYPERLINK<EMAIL_ADDRESS><EMAIL_ADDRESS>or<PHONE_NUMBER>.

(iii)  Indicate the source category description that most accurately
describes the purpose for which the unit is operated by entering one of
the following terms.  If none of these descriptions applies to your
unit, contact Robert Miller at   HYPERLINK
<EMAIL_ADDRESS><EMAIL_ADDRESS>or (202)
343-9077.

Automotive Stampings	Industrial Boiler	Petroleum Refinery

Bulk Industrial Chemical	Industrial Turbine	Portland Cement Plant

Cement Manufacturing	Institutional	Pulp and Paper Mill

Cogeneration	Iron and Steel	Small Power Producer

Electric Utility	Municipal Waste Combustor	Theme Park

(iv)  Provide the primary North American Industrial Classification
System (NAICS) code that most accurately describes the business type for
which the unit is operated.  If unknown, go to   HYPERLINK
"http://www.census.gov"  http://www.census.gov  for guidance on how to
determine the proper NAICS code for the unit.

(v)  Enter the date the unit began (or will begin) serving any generator
producing electricity for sale, including test generation.  Enter this
date and check the "actual" box for any unit that has begun to serve a
generator producing electricity for sale as of the date of submission of
this form.  (This information should be provided even if the unit does
not currently serve a generator producing electricity for sale.)  For
any unit that will begin, but has not begun as of the date of submission
of this form, to serve a generator producing electricity for sale,
estimate the future date on which the unit will begin to produce
electricity for sale and check the "projected" box.  When the actual
date is established, revise the form accordingly by entering the actual
date and checking the "actual" box.  Enter "NA" if the unit has not ever
served, is not currently serving, and is not projected to serve, a
generator that producing electricity for sale.  You are strongly
encouraged to use the CAMD Business System to update information
regarding when a unit begins serving a generator producing electricity
for sale.

If you have questions regarding this portion of the form, contact Robert
Miller at  HYPERLINK<EMAIL_ADDRESS><EMAIL_ADDRESS>or<PHONE_NUMBER>.

(vi)  For a unit subject to the Acid Rain Program, a CAIR Trading
Program, or a Transport Rule Program, that, as of the date of submission
of this form, serves one or more generators (whether or not the
generator produces electricity for sale), indicate the generator ID
number and the nameplate capacity (in MWe) of each generator served by
the unit.  A unit serves a generator if it produces, or is able to
produce, steam, gas, or other heated medium for generating electricity
at that generator.  For combined cycle units, report separately the
nameplate capacities of the generators associated with the combustion
turbine and the steam turbine.  Please ensure that the generator ID
numbers entered are consistent with those reported to the EIA.

The definitions of "nameplate capacity" under the Acid Rain Program and
under the CAIR/Transport Rule Programs differ slightly.  Therefore, for
a unit subject to the Acid Rain Program and any CAIR/Transport Rule
Program, the nameplate capacity for the same generator under the Acid
Rain Program and under the CAIR/Transport Rule Program may differ in
certain limited circumstances.  Specifically,  for a unit subject to the
Acid Rain Program, the nameplate capacity of a generator, if listed in
the National Allowance Database ("NADB"), is not affected by physical
changes to the generator after initial installation that result in an
increase in the maximum electrical generating output that the generator
is capable of producing.  Otherwise, for a unit subject to the Acid Rain
Program or a CAIR/Transport Rule Program, the nameplate capacity of a
generator is affected by physical changes to the generator after initial
installation that result in an increase in the maximum electrical
generating output that the generator is capable of producing.  In such a
case, the higher maximum electrical generating output number in MWe
should be reported in the nameplate capacity column.  Enter "NA" if, as
of the date of submission of this form, the unit does not serve a
generator.

See the definition of "nameplate capacity" at 40 CFR 72.2, 96.102,
97.102, 96.202, 97.202, 96.302, 97.302, 97.402, 97.502, 97.602, and
97.702, as applicable.  The NADB is located at the CAMD website at
HYPERLINK "http://www.epa.gov/airmarkets/trading/allocations.html"
http://www.epa.gov/airmarkets/trading/allocations.html .  If you have
questions regarding nameplate capacity, contact Robert Miller at
HYPERLINK<EMAIL_ADDRESS><EMAIL_ADDRESS>or (202)
343-9077; if you have questions regarding the NADB, contact Craig
Hillock at   HYPERLINK<EMAIL_ADDRESS><EMAIL_ADDRESS>or<PHONE_NUMBER>.

(vii) Enter the company name of each owner and operator in the "Company
Name" field.  Indicate whether the company is the owner, operator, or
both.  For new units, if the operator of a unit has not yet been chosen,
indicate that the owner is both the owner and operator and submit a
revised form when the operator has been selected within 30 days of the
effective date of the selection.  EPA must be notified of changes to
owners and operators within 30 days of the effective date of the change.
 You are strongly encouraged to use the CAMD Business System to provide
updated information on owners and operators.

(viii)  Indicate whether or not the unit is located in Indian Country.
For more information see the definition of “Indian Country” at 40
CFR 97.402, 97.502, 97.602 and 97.702.

(ix)  When identifying a unit at a facility for the first time, indicate
whether or not the unit was moved from another facility.  If the answer
is “yes”, the EPA will contact the owners/operator for more
information.
