Adequacy of Iowa Municipal Solid Waste Landfill Permit Program

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: This action approves modifications to Iowa's approved
municipal solid waste landfill (MSWLF) program. The approved
modification allows the State to issue research, development and
demonstration (RD&D) permits to owners and operators of MSWLF units in
accordance with its State law. On March 22, 2004, the EPA issued final
regulations allowing RD&D permits to be issued to certain municipal
solid waste landfills by approved states. This action also approves
modifications to Iowa's approved MSWLF program for adding financial
assurance mechanisms for local governments, adding the financial test
and corporate guarantee to financial assurance mechanisms, adding a
technical amendment to solid waste location restrictions for airport
safety, and adopting language from the Federal MSWLF criteria. On March
17, 2008, Iowa applied for approval of its RD&D permit provisions and
its updated rules for its MSWLF program. On December 15, 2008, EPA
issued a proposed rule for approving the above modifications, and
public comment on the proposed rule closed on January 14, 2009.

DATES: This rule is effective on May 1, 2009.

ADDRESSES: EPA has established a docket for this action under Docket ID
Number: EPA-R07-RCRA-2008-0849. All documents in the docket are listed
on the www.regulations.gov Web site. Although listed in the index, some

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    On March 22, 2004, the EPA issued a final rule amending the
municipal solid waste landfill criteria in 40 CFR part 258 to allow for
research, development and demonstration (RD&D) permits (69 FR 13242).
This rule allows for variances from specified criteria for a limited
period of time, to be implemented through State-issued RD&D permits.
RD&D permits are only available in States with approved MSWLF permit
programs which have been modified to incorporate RD&D permit authority.
While States are not required to seek approval for this provision,
those States that are interested in providing RD&D permits to owners
and operators of MSWLFs must seek approval from EPA before issuing such
permits. Also, EPA issued a final rule on November 27, 1996, for
financial assurance mechanisms for local governments (61 FR 60328 at
60337); a final rule on April 10, 1998, adding the financial test and
corporate guarantee to financial assurance mechanisms (63 FR 17706 at
17729); and a final rule on October 15, 2003, providing a technical
amendment to solid waste location restrictions for airport safety (68
FR 59335). The Federal MSWLF criteria are codified at 40 CFR part 258.
Approval procedures for provisions of 40 CFR part 258 are outlined in
40 CFR 239.12.
    Iowa's MSWLF permit program was approved on August 19, 1997 (62 FR
44127). On March 17, 2008, Iowa applied for approval of its RD&D permit
provisions and its updated rules for its MSWLF program. On December 15,
2008, EPA issued a proposed rule to approve the above modifications,
and public comment on the proposed rule closed on January 14, 2009.

II. Comments

    EPA received one comment in support of the proposed rulemaking and
four adverse comments. The adverse comments challenged EPA's
certification that the action would not have a significant economic
impact on a substantial number of small entities under the Regulatory
Flexibility Act, and requested that EPA provide a factual basis for the
certification.
    The Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA) generally requires an agency
to prepare a regulatory flexibility analysis of any rule subject to
notice and comment rulemaking requirements under the Administrative
Procedure Act or any other statute unless the agency certifies that the
rule will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial
number of small entities. Small entities include small businesses,
small organizations, and small governmental jurisdictions.
    For purposes of assessing the impacts of today's rule on small
entities, small entity is defined as: (1) A small business as defined
by the Small Business Administration's (SBA) regulations at 13 CFR
121.201; (2) a small governmental jurisdiction that is a government of
a city, county, town, school district or special district with a
population of less than 50,000; and (3) a small organization that is
any not-for-profit enterprise which is independently owned and operated
and is not dominant in its field.
    After considering the economic impacts of today's proposed rule on
small entities, I certify that this action will not have a significant
impact on a substantial number of small entities. This rule does not
impose any

requirements or create impacts on small entities. This action will not
in-and-of itself create any new requirements but simply approves
modifications to Iowa's municipal solid waste landfill (MSWLF) program
and its RD&D permit program. Accordingly, it affords no opportunity for
EPA to fashion for small entities less burdensome compliance or
reporting requirements or timetables or exemptions from all or part of
the rule. Therefore, this action will not have a significant economic
impact on a substantial number of small entities.
    Additionally, on January 29, 2009, the State of Iowa notified EPA
pursuant to 40 CFR 239.12(c) that Iowa would modify the state's MSWLF
permitting program pursuant to rule modifications of Iowa
Administrative Code 567, Chapter 113. These modifications to the Iowa
rules became effective February 9, 2009.
    On April 22, 2009, EPA Region 7 notified the State of Iowa pursuant
to 40 CFR 239.12(e) that EPA Region 7 had determined the February 9,
2009, Iowa rule modifications did not require Iowa to submit a revised
application for state permit program approval. As stated in EPA's
letter to Iowa on April 22, 2009, compared to the requirements for
MSWLF units that were in effect and approved at the time of the August
19, 1997, EPA initial approval of the Iowa MSWLF permit program (62 FR
44127), the 2009 Iowa modifications result only in augmenting the Iowa
permitting program implementation requirements for MSWLF units.
    As such, EPA Region 7 in this final rulemaking is approving for
program adequacy the previously identified RD&D permit authority,
financial assurance mechanisms for local governments, financial test
and corporate guarantee as financial assurance mechanisms, location
restrictions for airport safety, and adoption of language from the
Federal MSWLF criteria at 40 CFR part 258; with the exception of rules
that were rescinded under the February 9, 2009, Iowa rule
modifications. Because EPA Region 7 has determined that Iowa is not
required to submit a revised program application for state permit
program approval for the 2009 rule modifications, no further action by
EPA for the Iowa permit program approval is necessary. The Iowa
permitting program and MSWLF rules in effect as of February 9, 2009,
are considered adequate for EPA approval of the Iowa MSWLF permitting
program.

III. Decision

    After a thorough review, EPA Region 7 has determined that Iowa's
RD&D permit provisions and its updated rules for its Municipal Solid
Waste Landfill Permit Program, as defined under Iowa Administrative
Code (IAC) 567, Chapter 113, ``Sanitary Landfills for Municipal Solid
Waste: Groundwater Protection Systems for the Disposal of Non-Hazardous
Wastes,'' effective December 10, 2007, are adequate to ensure
compliance with the Federal criteria as defined at 40 CFR 258.4.

IV. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

    This action approves state solid waste requirements pursuant to
Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) Section 4005 and imposes
no Federal requirements. Therefore, this rule complies with applicable
executive orders and statutory provisions as follows:
    1. Executive Order 12866: Regulatory Planning Review--The Office of
Management and Budget has exempted this action from its review under
Executive Order (EO) 12866;
    2. Paperwork Reduction Act: This action does not impose an
information collection burden under the Paperwork Reduction Act;
    3. Regulatory Flexibility Act: After considering the economic
impacts of today's action on small entities under the Regulatory
Flexibility Act, I certify that this action will not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial number of small entities;
    4. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act: Because this action approves pre-
existing requirements under state law and does not impose any
additional enforceable duty beyond that required by state law, this
action does not contain any unfunded mandate, or significantly or
uniquely affect small governments, as described in the Unfunded
Mandates Act;
    5. Executive Order 13123: Federalism--EO13132 does not apply to
this action because this action will not have federalism implications
(i.e., there are not substantial direct effects on states, on the
relationship between the national government and states, or on the
distribution of power and responsibilities between Federal and State
governments);
    6. Executive Order 13175: Consultation and Coordination with Indian
Tribal Governments--EO13175 does not apply to this action because it
will not have tribal implications (i.e., there are no substantial
direct effects 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);
    7. Executive Order 13045: Protection of Children from Environmental
Health and Safety Risks--This proposed action is not subject to EO
13045 because it is not economically significant and is not based on
health or safety risks;
    8. Executive Order 13211: Actions that Significantly Affect Energy
Supply, Distribution, or Use--This action is not subject to EO 13211
because it is not a significant regulatory action as defined in EO
12866;
    9. National Technology Transfer Advancement Act: This provision
directs EPA to use voluntary consensus standards in its regulatory
activities unless to do so would be inconsistent with applicable law or
otherwise impracticable. Voluntary consensus standards are technical
standards (e.g., materials specifications, test methods, sampling
procedures, and business practices) that are developed or adopted by
voluntary consensus standards and bodies. EPA approves state programs
so long as the State programs meet the criteria delineated in 40 CFR
part 258. It would be inconsistent with applicable law for EPA, in its
review of a state program, to require the use of any particular
voluntary consensus standard in place of another standard that meets 40
CFR part 258 requirements. Thus, the National Technology Transfer and
Advancement Act does not apply to this action;
    10. Congressional Review Act: EPA will submit a report containing
this action and other information required by the Congressional Review
Act (5 U.S.C. 801 et seq.) to the U.S. Senate, the U.S. House of
Representatives, and the Comptroller General of the United States prior
to publication in the Federal Register.

National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants: Off-
Site Waste and Recovery Operations: Action Denying a Petition for
Reconsideration

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice of action denying a petition for reconsideration.

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

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is providing notice
that it has responded to a petition for reconsideration of a final rule
published in the Federal Register on March 18, 2015. The rule
promulgated amendments to the National Emission Standards for Hazardous
Air Pollutants (NESHAP): Off-Site Waste and Recovery Operations (OSWRO)
based on our residual risk and technology review (RTR) conducted for
the OSWRO source category. The agency previously granted
reconsideration of one issue raised in the petition. The Administrator
denied the second issue raised in the petition in letters to the
petitioners dated May 5, 2016.

DATES: May 16, 2016.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Emily Seidman, U.S. EPA, Office of
General Counsel, Mail Code 2344A, 1200 Pennsylvania Avenue NW.,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. How can I get copies of this document and other related information?

    This Federal Register document, the petition for reconsideration,
and the letters granting and denying the petition for reconsideration
are available in the docket the EPA established for the OSWRO NESHAP
under Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OAR-2012-0360. The document identification
number for the petition for reconsideration is EPA-HQ-OAR-2012-0360-
0128. The document identification numbers for the EPA's response
letters are EPA-HQ-OAR-2012-0360-0122 and EPA-HQ-OAR-2012-0360-0123.
    All documents in the docket are listed on the http://www.regulations.gov Web site. Although listed in the index, some
information is not publicly available, e.g., confidential business
information 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 either
electronically through http://www.regulations.gov or in hard copy at
the EPA Docket Center (EPA/DC), Room 3334, EPA WJC West Building, 1301
Constitution Ave. 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. The telephone number for the Public Reading Room is (202)
566-1744 and the telephone number for the Air Docket is<PHONE_NUMBER>.
    This Federal Register document, the petition for reconsideration,
and the letters granting and denying the petition can also be found on
EPA's Web site at http://www.epa.gov/ttn/atw/offwaste/oswropg.html. The
amended OSWRO NESHAP was published in the Federal Register on March 15,
2015, at 80 FR 14248.

II. Judicial Review

    Section 307(b)(1) of the Clean Air Act (CAA) indicates which
Federal Courts of Appeals have venue for petitions for review of final
EPA actions. This section provides, in part, that the petitions for
review must be filed in the Court of Appeals for the District of
Columbia Circuit if: (i) The agency action consists of ``nationally
applicable regulations promulgated, or final action taken, by the
Administrator,'' or (ii) such actions are locally or regionally
applicable, if ``such action is based on a determination of nationwide
scope or effect and if in taking such action the Administrator finds
and publishes that such action is based on such a determination.''
    The EPA has determined that its denial of the petition for
reconsideration is nationally applicable for purposes of CAA section
307(b)(1) because the actions directly affect the OSWRO NESHAP, which
is a nationally applicable regulation. Thus, any petitions for review
of the EPA's decision denying the petitioners' request for
reconsideration must be filed in the United States Court of Appeals for
the District of Columbia Circuit by July 15, 2016.

III. Description of Action

    On March 18, 2015, the EPA promulgated a final rule amending the
OSWRO NESHAP based on the RTR conducted for the OSWRO source category.
80 FR 14248, March 18, 2015. The EPA amended the OSWRO NESHAP to revise
provisions related to emissions during periods of startup, shutdown,
and malfunction; to add requirements for electronic reporting of
performance testing; to add monitoring requirements for pressure relief
devices (PRDs); to revise routine maintenance provisions; to clarify
provisions for open-ended valves and lines and for some performance
test methods and procedures; and to make several minor clarifications
and corrections. Subsequent to publishing the final rule, the EPA
received a petition for reconsideration submitted jointly by Eastman
Chemical Company and the American Chemical Council (dated May 18,
2015). This petition sought reconsideration of two of the amended
provisions of the OSWRO NESHAP: (1) The equipment leak provisions for
connectors, and (2) the requirement to monitor PRDs on portable
containers. The EPA considered the petition and supporting information
along with information contained in the OSWRO NESHAP amendment
rulemaking docket (Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OAR-2012-0360) in reaching a
decision on the petition. The Agency granted reconsideration of the PRD
monitoring requirement in a letter to the petitioners dated February 8,
2016. In separate letters to the petitioners dated May 5, 2016, the
Administrator denied reconsideration of the equipment leak provisions
for connectors and explained the reasons for the denial in these
letters. These letters are available in the OSWRO NESHAP amendment
rulemaking docket.

    Dated: May 5, 2016.

Administrator.

Extension:
    Rule 15g-3, SEC File No. 270-346, OMB Control No. 3235-0392

    Notice is hereby given that pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act
of 1995 (``PRA'') (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Securities and Exchange
Commission (``Commission'') is soliciting comments on the existing
collection of information provided for in Rule 15g-3--Broker or dealer
disclosure of quotations and other information relating to the penny
stock market (17 CFR 240.15g-3) under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 (15 U.S.C. 78a et seq.). The Commission plans to submit this
existing collection of information to the Office of Management and
Budget (``OMB'') for extension and approval.
    Rule 15g-3 requires that brokers and dealers disclose to customers
current quotation prices or similar market information in connection
with transactions in penny stocks. The purpose of the rule is to
increase the level of disclosure to investors concerning penny stocks
generally and specific penny stock transactions.
    The Commission estimates that approximately 195 broker-dealers will
spend an average of 87 hours annually to comply with this rule. Thus,
the total compliance burden is approximately 16,965 burden-hours per
year.

    Written comments are invited on: (a) Whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of
the functions of the agency, including whether the information shall
have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the agency's estimates of
the burden of the proposed collection of information; (c) ways to
enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be
collected; and (d) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of
information on respondents, including through the use of automated
collection techniques or other forms of information technology.
Consideration will be given to comments and suggestions submitted in
writing within 60 days of this publication.
    An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required
to respond to, a collection of information under the PRA unless it
displays a currently valid OMB control number.
    Please direct your written comments to: Pamela Dyson, Director/
Chief Information Officer, Securities and Exchange Commission, c/o Remi
Pavlik-Simon, 100 F Street NE, Washington, DC 20549 or send an email to
[email protected].

Assistant Secretary.
