SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    The SIP is a living document which a state revises as necessary to
address its unique air pollution problems. Therefore, the EPA, from
time to time, must take action on SIP revisions containing new and/or
revised regulations as being part of the SIP. On May 22, 1997 (62 FR
27968), the EPA revised the procedures for incorporating by reference
federally-approved SIPs, as a result of consultation between the EPA
and the Office of the Federal Register (OFR). The description of the
revised SIP document, IBR procedures and ``Identification of Plan''
format are discussed in further detail in the May 22, 1997, Federal
Register document. On April 21, 2009 (74 FR 18141) the EPA published an
update to the IBR material for North Dakota as of March 1, 2009.
Today's action is an update to the March 1, 2009 document.

II. EPA Action

    In this action, the EPA is announcing the update to the IBR
material as of August 1, 2015. The EPA is also correcting typographical
errors, including omissions and other minor errors in subsection
52.1820, paragraphs (c), (d), and (e).

III. Good Cause Exemption

    EPA has determined that today's action falls under the ``good
cause'' exemption in section 553(b)(3)(B) of the Administrative
Procedure Act (APA) which, upon a finding of ``good cause'' authorizes
agencies to dispense with public participation, and section 553(d)(3),
which allows an agency to make a rule effective immediately (thereby
avoiding the 30-day delayed effective date otherwise provided for in
the APA). Today's action simply updates the codification of provisions
which are already in effect as a matter of law.
    Under section 553 of the APA, an agency may find good cause where
procedures are ``impractical, unnecessary, or contrary to the public
interest.'' Public comment is ``unnecessary'' and ``contrary to the
public interest'' since the codification only reflects existing law.
Likewise, there is no purpose served by delaying the effective date of
this action.

IV. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

A. General Requirements

    Under Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993), this
action is not a ``significant regulatory action'' and is therefore not
subject to review by the Office of Management and Budget. This rule is
not subject to Executive Order 13211, ``Actions Concerning Regulations
That Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use'' (66 FR
28355, May 22, 2001) because it is not a significant regulatory action
under Executive Order 12866. Because the agency has made a ``good
cause'' finding that this action is not subject to notice-and-comment
requirements under the Administrative Procedure Act or any other
statute as indicated in the Supplementary Information section, it is
not subject to the regulatory flexibility provisions of the Regulatory
Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.), or to sections 202 and 205 of
the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (UMRA) (Pub. L. 104-4). In
addition, this action does not significantly or uniquely affect small
governments or impose a significant intergovernmental mandate, as
described in sections 203 and 204 of UMRA. This rule also does 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, as specified by Executive Order 13175 (65
FR 67249, November 9, 2000), nor will it have substantial direct
effects on the states, on the relationship between the national
government and the states, or on the distribution of power and
responsibilities among the various levels of government, as specified
in Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999). This rule also
is not subject to Executive Order 13045 (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997),
because it is not economically significant. This rule does not involve
technical standards; thus the requirements of section 12(d) of the
National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272
note) do not apply. The rule also does not involve special
consideration of environmental justice related issues as required by
Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994). This rule does
not impose an information collection burden under the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.). EPA's compliance with
these statutes and Executive Orders for the underlying rules are
discussed in previous actions taken on the State's rules.
    In this rule, EPA is finalizing regulatory text that includes
incorporation by reference. In accordance with requirements of 1 CFR
51.5, EPA is finalizing the incorporation by reference of the North
Dakota regulations described in the amendments to 40 CFR part 52 set
forth below. 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).

B. Submission to Congress and the Comptroller General

    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. Section 808 allows the issuing agency to
make a rule effective sooner than otherwise provided by the CRA if the
agency makes a good cause finding that notice and public procedure is
impracticable, unnecessary or contrary to the public interest. This
action simply codifies provisions which are already in effect as a
matter of law in federal and approved state programs. 5 U.S.C. 808(2).
As stated previously, EPA has made such a good cause finding and
established an effective date of December 8, 2015. EPA will submit a
report containing this rule and other required information to the U.S.
Senate, the U.S. House of Representatives, and the Comptroller General
of the United States prior to publication of the rule in the Federal
Register. This change to the identification of plan for North Dakota is
not a ``major rule'' as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2).

C. Petitions for Judicial Review

    EPA has also determined that the provisions of section 307(b)(1) of
the Clean Air Act pertaining to petitions for judicial review are not
applicable to this action. Prior EPA rulemaking actions for each
individual component of the North Dakota SIP compilation had previously
afforded interested parties the opportunity to file a petition for
judicial review in the United States Court of Appeals for the
appropriate circuit within 60 days of such rulemaking action. Thus, EPA
sees no need in this action to reopen the 60-day period for filing such
petitions for judicial review for this ``Identification of plan''
reorganization action for North Dakota.

Here is the information about the  4SLB “new data” floor data from the Thunder
Creek compressor site with the five controlled engines.  These
are located in two  earlier RICE dockets.   As far as I know, as of
several days ago, this data has not yet appeared in the current rulemaking
docket.  It was not provided “after” the MACT proposal to EPA – it may have
been re-discovered by EPA since the proposal.

National Ambient Air Quality Standards for Ozone

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency.

ACTION: Announcement of public hearings.

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

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is announcing three
public hearings for the proposed rule titled, ``National Ambient Air
Quality Standards for Ozone,'' that was published in the Federal
Register on December 17, 2014. The hearings will be held in Washington,
DC, Arlington, Texas, and Sacramento, California.
    Based on its review of the air quality criteria for ozone
(O3) and related photochemical oxidants and national ambient
air quality standards (NAAQS) for O3, the EPA proposes to
make revisions to the primary and secondary NAAQS for O3 to
provide requisite

protection of public health and welfare, respectively. The EPA is
proposing to revise the primary standard to a level within the range of
0.065 to 0.070 parts per million (ppm), and to revise the secondary
standard to within the range of 0.065 to 0.070 ppm, which air quality
analyses indicate would provide air quality, in terms of 3-year average
W126 index values, at or below a range of 13-17 ppm-hours. The EPA
proposes to make corresponding revisions in data handling conventions
for O3 and conforming changes to the Air Quality Index; to
revise regulations for the Prevention of Significant Deterioration
program to add a transition provision for certain applications; and to
propose schedules and convey information related to implementing any
revised standards. The EPA is proposing changes to the O3
monitoring seasons, the Federal Reference Method (FRM) for monitoring
O3 in the ambient air, Federal Equivalent Method procedures
for testing, and the Photochemical Assessment Monitoring Stations
network.
    Along with proposing exceptional event schedules related to
implementing any revised O3 standards, the EPA is proposing
to apply this same schedule approach to other future revised NAAQS and
to remove obsolete regulatory language for expired exceptional event
deadlines. The EPA is proposing to make minor changes to the procedures
and time periods for evaluating potential FRMs and equivalent methods
(including making the requirements for nitrogen dioxide consistent with
the requirements for O3) and to remove an obsolete
requirement for the annual submission of documentation by manufacturers
of certain particulate matter monitors.

DATES: The public hearings will be held on January 29, 2015, in
Washington, DC and Arlington, Texas, and on February 2, 2015, in
Sacramento, California. Please refer to SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION for
additional information on the public hearings.

ADDRESSES: The hearings will be held at the following locations:
    1. Washington: EPA, WJC East Building, Room 1153, 1201 Constitution
Avenue NW., Washington, DC. Identification is required. If your
driver's license is issued by Alaska, American Samoa, Arizona,
Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Montana, New
York, Oklahoma, or the state of Washington, you must present an
additional form of identification to enter (see SUPPLEMENTARY
INFORMATION for additional information on this location).
    2. Sacramento: California Air Resources Board, Byron-Sher
Auditorium, 1001 ``I'' Street, Sacramento, CA 95814. Commenters will be
required to sign in and show valid picture identification to security
staff upon entering.
    3. Arlington: Arlington City Hall, Arlington Municipal Building,
101 W. Abram Street, Arlington, Texas 76010.
    Written comments on the proposed rule may also be submitted to the
EPA electronically, by mail, by facsimile, or through hand delivery/
courier. Please refer to the proposed rule for the addresses and
detailed instructions.
    A complete set of documents related to the proposed rule is
available for public inspection at the EPA Docket Center, located at
Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OAR-2008-0699, EPA, WJC West Building, Room 3334,
1301 Constitution Avenue NW., Washington, DC. The Public Reading Room
is open from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday, excluding
legal holidays. A reasonable fee may be charged for copying. Documents
are also available through the electronic docket system at
www.regulations.gov.
    The EPA Web site for the rulemaking, which includes the proposal
and information about the public hearings, can be found at http://www.epa.gov/glo/actions.html.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: If you would like to speak at the
public hearings or have questions concerning the public hearings,
please contact Ms. Eloise Shepherd, Office of Air Quality Planning and
Standards, Health and Environmental Impacts Division, Environmental
Protection Agency, Research Triangle Park, NC 27711; telephone: (919)
541-5507; fax number:<PHONE_NUMBER>; email address:
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>    Questions concerning the proposed rule should be addressed to Ms.
Susan Stone, Office of Air Quality Planning and Standards, Health and
Environmental Impacts Division, Mail Code: C504-06, Research Triangle
Park, NC 27711; telephone:<PHONE_NUMBER>; email address:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The proposed rule for which the EPA is
holding the public hearings was published in the Federal Register on
December 17, 2014 (79 FR 75234), and is available at www.epa.gov/glo/actions.html. The public hearings will provide interested parties the
opportunity to present data, views, or arguments concerning the
proposed rule. The EPA may ask clarifying questions during the oral
presentations, but will not respond to the presentations at that time.
Written statements and supporting information submitted during the
comment period will be considered with the same weight as any oral
comments and supporting information presented at the public hearings.
Written comments must be postmarked by the last day of the comment
period, March 17, 2015, as specified in the proposed rule.
    The three public hearings will be held in Washington, DC;
Arlington, Texas; and Sacramento, California. The public hearings will
begin each day at 9:00 a.m. (local time) and continue until 7:30 p.m.
(local time). The EPA will make every effort to accommodate all
speakers that arrive and register before 7:30 p.m. The EPA is
scheduling lunch breaks from 12:30 p.m. until 2:00 p.m. Please note
that the Washington, D.C. hearing is being held at a U.S. government
facility. Individuals planning to attend the Washington, D.C. hearing
should be prepared to show valid picture identification to the security
staff in order to gain access to the building. The REAL ID Act, passed
by Congress in 2005, established new requirements for entering federal
facilities. These requirements took effect July 21, 2014. If your
driver's license is issued by Alaska, American Samoa, Arizona,
Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Montana, New
York, Oklahoma, or the state of Washington, you must present an
additional form of identification to enter the federal building in
Washington, DC where the public hearing will be held. Acceptable
alternative forms of identification include federal employee badges,
passports, enhanced driver's licenses, and military identification
cards. In addition, you will need to obtain a property pass for any
personal belongings you bring with you. Upon leaving the building, you
will be required to return this property pass to the security desk. No
large signs will be allowed in the building, cameras may only be used
outside of the building and demonstrations will not be allowed on
federal property for security reasons. Individuals planning to attend
the public hearing in Sacramento, California will also be required to
sign in and show valid picture identification to security staff in
order to gain access to the building.
    If you would like to present oral testimony at the hearings, please
notify Ms. Eloise Shepherd, U.S. EPA, Office of Air Quality Planning
and Standards, Mail Code: C504-02, 109 T.W. Alexander Drive, Research
Triangle Park, NC 27711; telephone:<PHONE_NUMBER>; fax: (919) 541-
0804; email address<EMAIL_ADDRESS>

(preferred method for registering). Ms. Shepherd will arrange a general
time slot for you to speak. The EPA will make every effort to follow
the schedule as closely as possible on the day of the hearings.
    Oral testimony will be limited to 5 minutes for each commenter to
address the proposed revisions. The EPA will not provide audiovisual
