[Docket No. NHTSA 2010-0098]

Preliminary Theft Data; Motor Vehicle Theft Prevention Standard

AGENCY: National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA),
Department of Transportation.

ACTION: Publication of preliminary theft data; request for comments.

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

SUMMARY: This document requests comments on data about passenger motor
vehicle thefts that occurred in calendar year (CY) 2008 including theft
rates for existing passenger motor vehicle lines manufactured in model
year (MY) 2008. The preliminary theft data indicate that the vehicle
theft rate for CY/MY 2008 vehicles (1.69 thefts per thousand vehicles)
decreased by 8.65 percent from the theft rate for CY/MY 2007 vehicles
(1.85 thefts per thousand vehicles).
    Publication of these data fulfills NHTSA's statutory obligation to
periodically obtain accurate and timely theft data, and publish the
information for review and comment.

DATES: Comments must be submitted on or before October 18, 2010.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: NHTSA administers a program for reducing
motor vehicle theft. The central feature of this program is the Federal
Motor Vehicle Theft Prevention Standard, 49

CFR part 541. The standard specifies performance requirements for
inscribing or affixing vehicle identification numbers (VINs) onto
certain major original equipment and replacement parts of high-theft
lines of passenger motor vehicles.
    The agency is required by 49 U.S.C. 33104(b)(4) to periodically
obtain, from the most reliable source, accurate and timely theft data,
and publish the data for review and comment. To fulfill the Sec.
33104(b)(4) mandate, this document reports the preliminary theft data
for CY 2008 the most recent calendar year for which data are available.
    In calculating the 2008 theft rates, NHTSA followed the same
procedures it has used since publication of the 1983/1984 theft rate
data (50 FR 46669, November 12, 1985). The 2008 theft rate for each
vehicle line was calculated by dividing the number of reported thefts
of MY 2008 vehicles of that line stolen during calendar year 2008 by
the total number of vehicles in that line manufactured for MY 2008, as
reported to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). As in all
previous reports, NHTSA's data were based on information provided to
NHTSA by the National Crime Information Center (NCIC) of the Federal
Bureau of Investigation. The NCIC is a government system that receives
vehicle theft information from approximately 23,000 criminal justice
agencies and other law enforcement authorities throughout the United
States. The NCIC data also include reported thefts of self-insured and
uninsured vehicles, not all of which are reported to other data
sources.
    The preliminary 2008 theft data show a decrease in the vehicle
theft rate when compared to the theft rate experienced in CY/MY 2007
(for 2007 theft data, see 75 FR 47720, August 9, 2010). The preliminary
theft rate for MY 2008 passenger vehicles stolen in calendar year 2008
decreased to 1.69 thefts per thousand vehicles produced, a decrease of
8.65 percent from the rate of 1.85 thefts per thousand vehicles
experienced by MY 2007 vehicles in CY 2007. For MY 2008 vehicles, out
of a total of 239 vehicle lines, 18 lines had a theft rate higher than
3.5826 per thousand vehicles, the established median theft rate for MYs
1990/1991 (see 59 FR 12400, March 16, 1994). Of the 18 vehicle lines
with a theft rate higher than 3.5826, 14 are passenger car lines, four
are multipurpose passenger vehicle lines, and none are light-duty truck
lines.
    The agency believes that the theft rate reduction is a result of
several factors, including vehicle parts marking; the increased use of
standard antitheft devices (i.e., as immobilizers); advances in
electronic technology and other theft prevention methods (i.e., remote
engine disablers, license tag readers; improved door locks); increased
and improved prosecution efforts by law enforcement organizations; and,
increased public awareness (i.e., precautionary measures for vehicle
owners) which may have contributed to the overall reduction in vehicle
thefts. The preliminary MY 2008 theft rate reduction is consistent with
the general decreasing trend of theft rates over the past 16 years as
indicated by Figure 1.

    In Table I, NHTSA has tentatively ranked each of the MY 2008
vehicle lines in descending order of theft rate. Public comment is
sought on the accuracy of the data, including the data for the
production volumes of individual vehicle lines.
    Comments must not exceed 15 pages in length (49 CFR 553.21).
Attachments may be appended to these submissions without regard to the
15 page limit. This limitation is intended to encourage commenters to
detail their primary arguments in a concise fashion.
    If a commenter wishes to submit certain information under a claim
of confidentiality, three copies of the

complete submission, including purportedly confidential business
information, should be submitted to the Chief Counsel, NHTSA, at the
street address given above, and two copies from which the purportedly
confidential information has been deleted should be submitted to
Dockets. A request for confidentiality should be accompanied by a cover
letter setting forth the information specified in the agency's
confidential business information regulation. 49 CFR part 512.
    All comments received before the close of business on the comment
closing date indicated above for this document will be considered, and
will be available for examination in the docket at the above address
both before and after that date. To the extent possible, comments filed
after the closing date will also be considered. Comments on this
document will be available for inspection in the docket. NHTSA will
continue to file relevant information as it becomes available for
inspection in the docket after the closing date, and it is recommended
that interested persons continue to examine the docket for new
material.
    Those persons desiring to be notified upon receipt of their
comments in the rules docket should enclose a self-addressed, stamped
postcard in the envelope with their comments. Upon receiving the
comments, the docket supervisor will return the postcard by mail.
    Privacy Act: Anyone is able to search the electronic form of all
comments received into any of our dockets by the name of the individual
submitting the comment (or signing the comment, if submitted on behalf
of an association, business, labor union, etc.). You may review DOT's
complete Privacy Act Statement in the Federal Register published on

[Docket No. FRA-2001-11213, Notice No. 26]

Drug and Alcohol Testing: Determination of Minimum Random Testing
Rates for 2022

AGENCY: Federal Railroad Administration (FRA), Department of
Transportation (DOT).

ACTION: Notification of determination.

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

SUMMARY: This notification of determination announces FRA's minimum
annual random drug and minimum annual random alcohol testing rates for
covered service and maintenance-of-way (MOW) employees for calendar
year 2022.

DATES: This determination takes effect December 29, 2021.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Gerald Powers, FRA Drug and Alcohol
Program Manager, by email: [email protected] or by telephone: 202-
493-6313; or Sam Noe, FRA Drug and Alcohol Program Specialist, by
email: [email protected] or by telephone:<PHONE_NUMBER>.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: FRA is announcing the 2022 minimum annual
random drug and alcohol testing rates for covered service and MOW
employees. For calendar year 2022, the minimum annual random testing
rates for covered service employees will continue to be 25 percent for
drugs and 10 percent for alcohol, while the minimum annual random
testing rates for MOW employees will be lowered to 25 percent for drugs
and will continue to be 10 percent for alcohol. Because these rates
represent minimums, railroads and railroad contractors may conduct FRA
random testing at higher rates.

Discussion

    To set its minimum annual random testing rates for each year, FRA
examines the last two complete calendar years of railroad industry drug
and alcohol program data submitted to its Management Information System
(MIS). FRA has also, however, reserved the right to consider factors
other than MIS-reported data before deciding whether to lower annual
minimum random testing rates. See 85 FR 81265 (Dec. 15, 2020).

Random Testing Rates for Covered Service Employees

    The rail industry's random drug testing positive rate for covered
service employees (employees subject to the Federal hours of service
laws and regulations) remained below 1.0 percent for 2019 and 2020. The
Deputy Administrator has therefore determined the minimum annual random
drug testing rate for covered service employees will remain at 25
percent for the period January 1, 2022, through December 31, 2022. The
industry-wide random alcohol testing violation rate for covered service
employees remained below 0.5 percent for 2019 and 2020. Therefore, the
Deputy Administrator has determined the minimum random alcohol testing
rate for covered service employees will remain at10 percent for the
period January 1, 2022, through December 31, 2022.

Random Testing Rates for MOW Employees

    MOW employees became subject to FRA random drug and alcohol testing
in June 2017. See 81 FR 37894 (June 10, 2016). Although FRA had MIS
data for two full, consecutive years of industry-wide performance rates
for MOW employees when announcing the random testing rates for 2021,
the Administrator found it was not in the interest of railroad safety
to lower the random drug testing rate for MOW employees at that time.
The Administrator did, however, lower the random alcohol testing rate
for MOW employees to 10 percent. For an explanation of the
Administrator's findings and determination, please refer to FRA's
notification of determination for calendar year 2021. See 85 FR 81265-
81267.
    FRA now has MIS data for three full, consecutive years (2018-2020)
for the industry-wide performance rates for MOW employees. The random
drug testing violation rate for MOW employees has remained below 1.0
percent for the past two consecutive years, and has never been above
1.0 percent. The random drug testing violation rate for MOW employees
also trended downwards in 2020, decreasing from 0.8 percent in 2019 to
0.59 percent in 2020, which is the lowest since FRA started collecting
MIS data for MOW employees in 2017. Taking these factors into
consideration, the Deputy Administrator has determined that the minimum
annual drug testing rate for MOW employees will be lowered to 25
percent for the period January 1, 2022, through December 31, 2022. If
the random drug testing violation rate for MOW employees increases to
1.0 percent or higher, FRA will raise the minimum annual drug testing
rate back to 50 percent. See 49 CFR 219.625(d)(2).
    Because the random alcohol testing violation rate for MOW employees
remained below 0.5 percent for 2019 and 2020, the Deputy Administrator
has determined that the minimum annual random alcohol testing rate for
MOW employees will continue to be10 percent for the period January 1,
2022, through December 31, 2022.

Airworthiness Directives; Rolls-Royce plc Turbofan Engines

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: We are superseding airworthiness directive (AD) 2014-16-10 for
all Rolls-Royce plc (RR) RB211 Trent 768-60, 772-60, and 772B-60
turbofan engines. AD 2014-16-10 required initial and repetitive
ultrasonic inspections (UIs) of the affected low-pressure (LP)
compressor blades. This AD requires the UIs in AD 2014-16-10 while
reducing the inspection threshold. This AD was prompted by revised
service information to reduce the inspection threshold for UI of the LP
compressor blades. We are issuing this AD to correct the unsafe
condition on these products.

DATES: This AD is effective March 22, 2017.
    The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by
reference of a certain publication listed in this AD as of March 22,
2017.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Discussion

    We issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR
part 39 to supersede AD 2014-16-10, Amendment 39-17934 (79 FR 48961,
August 19, 2014), (``AD 2014-16-10''). AD 2014-16-10 applied to RR
RB211 Trent 768-60, 772-60, and 772B-60 turbofan engines. The NPRM
published in the Federal Register on November 1, 2016 (81 FR 75762).
The NPRM proposed to continue to require the UIs in AD 2014-16-10 while
applying the revised inspection threshold.

Comments

    We gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing
this AD. We considered the comments received.

Request To Change the Costs of Compliance

    RR noted the 40 hours in the Costs of Compliance to undertake the
inspection in RR Alert Non-Modification Service Bulletin (NMSB) RB.211-
72-AH465, Revision 2, dated May 11, 2016, exceeds the RR guidance
provided in the NMSB. The NMSB states that the on-wing inspection takes
16 hours to accomplish if the blades are installed, and total time of
28 hours if the blades are removed.
    We disagree. The Costs of Compliance estimate assumed the blades
would be removed for inspection, which includes the time required to
remove the blades and reinstall them afterward to return the engine to
service. We did not change this AD.

Request To Add Credit for Previous Actions

    RR requested that previous inspection in accordance with RR Alert
NMSB RB.211-72-AH465, Revision 1, dated July 10, 2015, or earlier
revisions, be considered as credit for previous action, against the
inspection requirements of this AD to align with European Aviation
Safety Agency, (EASA) AD 2016-0141, dated July 18, 2016 (corrected July
20, 2016).
    We agree. The inspections done using RR Alert NMSB RB.211-72-AH465,
Revision 1, dated July 10, 2015, or the initial issue, dated July 15,
2013, are acceptable. We added RR Alert NMSB RB.211-72-AH465, Revision
1, dated July 10, 2015, and the initial issue, dated July 15, 2013, to
paragraph (f) of this AD.

Conclusion

    We reviewed the available data, including the comments received,
and determined that air safety and the public interest require adopting
this AD as proposed.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    RR has issued Alert NMSB RB.211-72-AH465, Revision 2, dated May 11,
2016. The NMSB describes procedures for performing a UI of the LP
compressor blades. 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.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this AD affects 56 engines installed on airplanes
of U.S. registry.
    We estimate the following costs to comply with this 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.
    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.

Regulatory Findings

    This AD will not have federalism implications under Executive Order
13132. This AD will 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 that this AD:
    (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive
Order 12866,
    (2) Is not a ``significant rule'' under DOT Regulatory Policies and
Procedures (44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979),
    (3) Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska to the extent
that it justifies making a regulatory distinction, 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.

[Docket No. CP06-379-000]

Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line Corporation; Notice of Application
for Abandonment

June 13, 2006.
    Take notice that on June 8, 2006, Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line
Corporation (Transco), filed with the Commission an application under
section 7 of the Natural Gas Act to abandon a portion of the firm
transportation service provided to the City of Kings Mountain, North
Carolina (Kings Mountain) under Transco's Rate Schedule FT.
    Transco states that it currently provides firm transportation
service to Kings Mountain under a Rate Schedule FT Service Agreement
dated February 1, 1992. This service agreement is a result of a
conversion from firm sales service to firm transportation service for
which pre-granted abandonment does not apply. As a result, Transco
requires specific section 7(b) authorization to abandon service to
Kings Mountain. As more fully explained in the application, Transco
seeks authorization to abandon 1,000 Dt/day of Kings Mountain's firm
transportation service.
    Any person desiring to intervene or to protest this filing must
file in accordance with Rules 211 and 214 of the Commission's Rules of
Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.211 and 385.214). Protests will be
considered by the Commission in determining the appropriate action to
be taken, but will not serve to make protestants parties to the
proceeding. Any person wishing to become a party must file a notice of
intervention or motion to intervene, as appropriate. Such notices,
motions, or protests must be filed on or before the date as indicated
below. Anyone filing an intervention or protest must serve a copy of
that document on the Applicant. Anyone filing an intervention or
protest on or before the intervention or protest date need not serve
motions to intervene or protests on persons other than the Applicant.

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Part 52

[EPA-R04-OAR-2013-0270; FRL-9924-99-Region 4]

Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans; Mississippi
Infrastructure Requirements for the 2008 Lead National Ambient Air
Quality Standards

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is taking final
action to approve in part and disapprove in part the November 17, 2011,
State Implementation Plan (SIP) submission, provided by the Mississippi
Department of Environmental Quality (MDEQ) for inclusion into the
Mississippi SIP. This final action pertains to the Clean Air Act (CAA
or the Act) infrastructure requirements for the 2008 Lead national
ambient air quality standards (NAAQS). The CAA requires that each state
adopt and submit a SIP for the implementation, maintenance, and
enforcement of each NAAQS promulgated by EPA, which is commonly
referred to as an ``infrastructure'' SIP. MDEQ certified that the
Mississippi SIP contains provisions that ensure the 2008 Lead NAAQS is
implemented, enforced, and maintained in Mississippi. With the
exception of provisions pertaining to prevention of significant
deterioration (PSD) permitting, for which EPA is not acting upon, and
disapproving certain state boards requirements, EPA is taking final
action to approve Mississippi's infrastructure SIP submission, provided
to EPA on November 17, 2011, because it addresses the required
infrastructure elements for the 2008 Lead NAAQS.

DATES: This rule will be effective April 29, 2015.

ADDRESSES: EPA has established a docket for this action under Docket
Identification No. EPA-R04-OAR-2013-0270. All documents in the docket
are listed on the www.regulations.gov Web site. Although listed in the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    Upon promulgation of a new or revised NAAQS, sections 110(a)(1) and
(2) of the CAA require states to address basic SIP requirements,
including emissions inventories, monitoring, and modeling to assure
attainment and maintenance for that new NAAQS. Section 110(a) of the
CAA generally requires states to make a SIP submission to meet
applicable requirements in order to provide for the implementation,
maintenance, and enforcement of a new or revised NAAQS within three
years following the promulgation of such NAAQS, or within such shorter
period as EPA may prescribe. These SIP submissions are commonly
referred to as ``infrastructure'' SIP submissions. Section 110(a)
imposes the obligation upon states to make an infrastructure SIP
submission to EPA for a new or revised NAAQS, but the contents of that
submission may vary depending upon the facts and circumstances. In
particular, the data and analytical tools available at the time the
state develops and submits the infrastructure SIP for a new or revised
NAAQS affect the content of the submission. The contents of such
infrastructure SIP submissions may also vary depending upon what
provisions the state's existing SIP already contains. In the case of
the 2008 Lead NAAQS, states typically have met the basic program
elements required in section 110(a)(2) through earlier SIP submissions
in connection with previous lead NAAQS.
    More specifically, section 110(a)(1) provides the procedural and
timing requirements for SIPs. Section 110(a)(2) lists specific elements
that states must meet for infrastructure SIP requirements related to a
newly established or revised NAAQS. As mentioned above, these
requirements include basic structural SIP elements such as modeling,
monitoring, and emissions inventories that are designed to assure
attainment and maintenance of the NAAQS. The applicable infrastructure
SIP requirements that are the subject of this rulemaking are listed
below.\1\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ Two elements identified in section 110(a)(2) are not
governed by the three year submission deadline of section 110(a)(1)
because SIPs incorporating necessary local nonattainment area
controls are not due within three years after promulgation of a new
or revised NAAQS, but rather due at the time the nonattainment area
plan requirements are due pursuant to other provisions of the CAA
for submission of SIP revisions specifically applicable for
attainment planning purposes. These requirements are: (1)
Submissions required by section 110(a)(2)(C) to the extent that
subsection refers to a permit program as required in part D Title I
of the CAA; and (2) submissions required by section 110(a)(2)(I)
which pertain to the nonattainment planning requirements of part D,
Title I of the CAA. Today's proposed rulemaking does not address
infrastructure elements related to section 110(a)(2)(I) or the
nonattainment planning requirements of 110(a)(2)(C).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

     110(a)(2)(A): Emission limits and other control measures.
     110(a)(2)(B): Ambient air quality monitoring/data system.
     110(a)(2)(C): Program for enforcement, prevention of
significant deterioration (PSD) and new source review (NSR).\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ This rulemaking only addresses requirements for this element
as they relate to attainment areas.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

     110(a)(2)(D): Interstate and international transport
provisions.
     110(a)(2)(E): Adequate personnel, funding, and authority.
     110(a)(2)(F): Stationary source monitoring and reporting.
     110(a)(2)(G): Emergency episodes.
     110(a)(2)(H): Future SIP revisions.
     110(a)(2)(J): Consultation with government officials,
public notification, and PSD and visibility protection.
     110(a)(2)(K): Air quality modeling/data.
     110(a)(2)(L): Permitting fees.
     110(a)(2)(M): Consultation/participation by affected local
entities.
    On November 18, 2014, EPA proposed to approve Mississippi's
November 17, 2011, 2008 Lead NAAQS infrastructure SIP submission with
the exception of provisions pertaining to PSD permitting in sections
110(a)(2)(C), prong 3 of D(i) and (J) and the majority requirements
respecting significant portion of income for state boards of section
110(a)(2)(E)(ii). EPA proposed disapproval of the majority requirements
respecting significant portion of income for state boards of section
110(a)(2)(E)(ii). EPA will address the PSD permitting requirements in
sections 110(a)(2)(C), prong 3 of D(i) and (J) in a separate action.
See 79 FR 68648.

II. Today's Action

    In this rulemaking, EPA is taking final action to approve
Mississippi's infrastructure submission as demonstrating that the State
meets the applicable requirements of sections 110(a)(1) and (2) of the
CAA for the 2008 Lead NAAQS, with the exception of PSD permitting
provisions in sections 110(a)(2)(C), prong 3 of D(i) and (J). EPA will
be taking action on these elements in a separate action. Additionally,
EPA is disapproving Mississippi's infrastructure submission with regard
to the majority requirements respecting significant portion of income
for state boards in section 110(a)(2)(E)(ii).

III. Final Action

    With the exception of provisions pertaining to PSD permitting
requirements in sections 110(a)(2)(C), prong 3 of D(i) and (J) and the
majority requirements respecting significant portion of income for
state boards of section 110(a)(2)(E)(ii), EPA is taking final action to
approve Mississippi's November 17, 2011, infrastructure submission
because it addresses the required infrastructure elements for the 2008
Lead NAAQS. EPA is disapproving in part section 110(a)(2)(E)(ii)
because a majority of board members that approve permits or enforcement
orders in Mississippi may still derive a significant portion of income
from persons subject to permits or enforcement orders issued by such
Mississippi Boards, therefore, its current SIP does not meet the
section 128(a)(1) majority requirements respecting significant portion
of income. With the exceptions noted above MDEQ has addressed the
elements of the CAA 110(a)(1) and (2) SIP requirements pursuant to
section 110 of the CAA to ensure that the 2008 Lead NAAQS is
implemented, enforced, and maintained in Mississippi.

IV. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

    Under the CAA, 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 CAA. 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 CAA, petitions for judicial review
of this action must be filed in the United States Court of Appeals for
the appropriate circuit by May 29, 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).

3. Section 52.1272 is amended by adding paragraph (c) to read as
follows:

Sec.  52.1272  Approval status.

* * * * *
    (c) Disapproval. With respect to the significant portion of income
requirement of section 128(a)(1), the provisions included in the
October 11, 2012, infrastructure SIP submission did not preclude at
least a majority of the members of the Mississippi Board from receiving
a significant portion of their income from persons subject to permits
or enforcement orders issued by the Mississippi Boards. Because a
majority of board members may still derive a significant portion of
income from persons subject to permits or enforcement orders issued by
the Mississippi Boards, the Mississippi SIP does not meet the section
128(a)(1) majority requirements respecting significant portion of
income, and as such, EPA is today proposing to disapprove the State's
110(a)(2)(E)(ii) submission as it relates only to this portion of
section 128(a)(1).
