[Docket ID FEMA-2016-0002; Internal Agency Docket No. FEMA-B-1646]

Changes in Flood Hazard Determinations

AGENCY: Federal Emergency Management Agency, DHS.

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: This notice lists communities where the addition or
modification of Base Flood Elevations (BFEs), base flood depths,
Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA) boundaries or zone designations, or
the regulatory floodway (hereinafter referred to as flood hazard
determinations), as shown on the Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs), and
where applicable, in the supporting Flood Insurance Study (FIS)
reports, prepared by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) for
each community, is appropriate because of new scientific or technical
data. The FIRM, and where applicable, portions of the FIS report, have
been revised to reflect these flood hazard determinations through
issuance of a Letter of Map Revision (LOMR), in accordance with Title
44, Part 65 of the Code of Federal Regulations (44 CFR part 65). The
LOMR will be used by insurance agents and others to calculate
appropriate flood insurance premium rates for new buildings and the
contents of those buildings. For rating purposes, the currently
effective community number is shown in the table below and must be used
for all new policies and renewals.

DATES: These flood hazard determinations will become effective on the
dates listed in the table below and revise the FIRM panels and FIS
report in effect prior to this determination for the listed
communities.
    From the date of the second publication of notification of these
changes in a newspaper of local circulation, any person has 90 days in
which to request through the community that the Deputy Associate
Administrator for Insurance and Mitigation reconsider the changes. The
flood hazard determination information may be changed during the 90-day
period.

ADDRESSES: The affected communities are listed in the table below.
Revised flood hazard information for each community is available for
inspection at both the online location and the respective community map
repository address listed in the table below. Additionally, the current
effective FIRM and FIS report for each community are accessible online
through the FEMA Map Service Center at www.msc.fema.gov for comparison.
    Submit comments and/or appeals to the Chief Executive Officer of
the community as listed in the table below.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Rick Sacbibit, Chief, Engineering
Services Branch, Federal Insurance and Mitigation Administration, FEMA,
400 C Street SW., Washington, DC 20472,<PHONE_NUMBER>, or (email)
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>or visit the FEMA Map Information
eXchange (FMIX) online at www.floodmaps.fema.gov/fhm/fmx_main.html.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The specific flood hazard determinations are
not described for each community in this notice. However, the online
location and local community map repository address where the flood
hazard determination information is available for inspection is
provided.
    Any request for reconsideration of flood hazard determinations must
be

submitted to the Chief Executive Officer of the community as listed in
the table below.
    The modifications are made pursuant to section 201 of the Flood
Disaster Protection Act of 1973, 42 U.S.C. 4105, and are in accordance
with the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, 42 U.S.C. 4001 et seq.,
and with 44 CFR part 65.
    The FIRM and FIS report are the basis of the floodplain management
measures that the community is required either to adopt or to show
evidence of having in effect in order to qualify or remain qualified
for participation in the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP).
    These flood hazard determinations, together with the floodplain
management criteria required by 44 CFR 60.3, are the minimum that are
required. They should not be construed to mean that the community must
change any existing ordinances that are more stringent in their
floodplain management requirements. The community may at any time enact
stricter requirements of its own or pursuant to policies established by
other Federal, State, or regional entities. The flood hazard
determinations are in accordance with 44 CFR 65.4.
    The affected communities are listed in the following table. Flood
hazard determination information for each community is available for
inspection at both the online location and the respective community map
repository address listed in the table below. Additionally, the current
effective FIRM and FIS report for each community are accessible online
through the FEMA Map Service Center at www.msc.fema.gov for comparison.

[Docket No. FDA-2011-N-0403]

Agency Information Collection Activities; Proposed Collection;
Comment Request; Substantiation for Dietary Supplement Claims Made
Under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act

AGENCY: Food and Drug Administration, HHS.

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is announcing an
opportunity for public comment on the proposed collection of certain
information by the Agency. Under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(the PRA), Federal Agencies are required to publish notice in the
Federal Register concerning each proposed collection of information,
including each proposed extension of an existing collection of
information, and to allow 60 days for public comment in response to the
notice. This notice solicits comments on the information collection
provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the FD&C Act)
and the guidance entitled ``Guidance for Industry: Substantiation for
Dietary Supplement Claims Made Under Section 403(r)(6) of the Federal
Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act.''

DATES: Submit either electronic or written comments on the collection
of information by August 2, 2011.

ADDRESSES: Submit electronic comments on the collection of information
to http://www.regulations.gov. Submit written comments on the
collection of information to the Division of Dockets Management (HFA-
305), Food and Drug Administration, 5630 Fishers Lane, Rm. 1061,
Rockville, MD 20852. All comments should be identified with the docket
number found in brackets in the heading of this document.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Denver Presley, Jr., Office of
Information Management, Food and Drug Administration, 1350 Piccard Dr.,
PI50-400B, Rockville, MD 20850,<PHONE_NUMBER>.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520), Federal
Agencies must obtain approval from the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) for each collection of information they conduct or sponsor.
``Collection of information'' is defined in 44 U.S.C. 3502(3) and 5 CFR
1320.3(c) and includes Agency requests or requirements that members of
the public submit reports, keep records, or provide information to a
third party. Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA (44 U.S.C.

3506(c)(2)(A)) requires Federal Agencies to provide a 60-day notice in
the Federal Register concerning each proposed collection of
information, including each proposed extension of an existing
collection of information, before submitting the collection to OMB for
approval. To comply with this requirement, FDA is publishing notice of
the proposed collection of information set forth in this document.
    With respect to the following collection of information, FDA
invites comments on these topics: (1) Whether the proposed collection
of information is necessary for the proper performance of FDA's
functions, including whether the information will have practical
utility; (2) the accuracy of FDA's estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information, including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used; (3) ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (4) ways
to minimize the burden of the collection of information on respondents,
including through the use of automated collection techniques, when
appropriate, and other forms of information technology.

Substantiation for Dietary Supplement Claims Made Under the Federal
Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act--21 U.S.C. 343(r)(6) (OMB Control Number
0910-0626)--Extension

    Section 403(r)(6) of the FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. 343(r)(6)) requires
that a manufacturer of a dietary supplement making a nutritional
deficiency, structure/function, or general well-being claim have
substantiation that the statement is truthful and not misleading. Under
section 403(r)(6)(A) of the FD&C Act, such a statement is one that
``claims a benefit related to a classical nutrient deficiency disease
and discloses the prevalence of such disease in the United States
[(U.S.)], describes the role of a nutrient or dietary ingredient
intended to affect the structure or function in humans, characterizes
the documented mechanism by which a nutrient or dietary ingredient acts
to maintain such structure or function, or describes general well-being
from consumption for a nutrient or dietary ingredient.''
    The guidance document entitled ``Substantiation for Dietary
Supplement Claims Made Under Section 403(r)(6) of the Federal Food,
Drug, and Cosmetic Act'' provides FDA's recommendations to
manufacturers about the amount, type, and quality of evidence they
should have to substantiate a claim under section 403(r)(6). The
guidance does not discuss the types of claims that can be made
concerning the effect of a dietary supplement on the structure or
function of the body, nor does it discuss criteria to determine when a
statement about a dietary supplement is a disease claim. The guidance
document is intended to assist manufacturers in their efforts to comply
with section 403(r)(6). Persons with access to the Internet may obtain
the guidance at http://www.cfsan.fda.gov/~dms/guidance.html.
    Dietary supplement manufacturers collect the necessary
substantiating information for their product as required by section
403(r)(6). The guidance provides information to manufacturers to assist
them in doing so. The recommendations contained in the guidance are
voluntary. Dietary supplement manufacturers will only need to collect
information to substantiate their product's nutritional deficiency,
structure/function, or general well-being claim if they choose to place
a claim on their product's label.
    The standard discussed in the guidance for substantiation of a
claim on the labeling of a dietary supplement is consistent with
standards set by the Federal Trade Commission for dietary supplements
and other health-related products that the claim be based on competent
and reliable scientific evidence. This evidence standard is broad
enough that some dietary supplement manufacturers may only need to
collect peer-reviewed scientific journal articles to substantiate their
claims; other dietary supplement manufacturers whose products have
properties that are less well documented may have to conduct studies to
build a body of evidence to support their claims. It is unlikely that a
dietary supplement manufacturer will attempt to make a claim when the
cost of obtaining the evidence to support the claim outweighs the
benefits of having the claim on the product's label. It is likely that
manufacturers will seek substantiation for their claims in the
scientific literature.
    The time it takes to assemble the necessary scientific information
to support their claims depends on the product and the claimed
benefits. If the product is one of several on the market making a
particular claim for which there is adequate publicly available and
widely established evidence supporting the claim, then the time to
gather supporting data will be minimal; if the product is the first of
its kind to make a particular claim or the evidence supporting the
claim is less publicly available or not widely established, then
gathering the appropriate scientific evidence to substantiate the claim
will be more time consuming.
    FDA estimates the burden of this collection of information as
follows:

\1\ There are no capital costs or operating and maintenance costs associated with this collection of
  information.

    FDA assumes that it will take 44 hours to assemble information
needed to substantiate a claim on a particular dietary supplement when
the claim is widely known and established. FDA believes it will take
closer to 120 hours to assemble supporting scientific information when
the claim is novel or when the claim is pre-existing but the scientific
underpinnings of the claim are not widely established. These are claims
that may be based on emerging science, where conducting literature
searches and understanding the literature takes time. It is also
possible that references for claims made for some dietary ingredients
or dietary supplements may primarily be found in foreign journals

and in foreign languages or in the older, classical literature where it
is not available on computerized literature databases or in the major
scientific reference databases, such as the National Library of
Medicine's literature database, all of which increases the time of
obtaining substantiation.
    In the Federal Register of January 6, 2000 (65 FR 1000), FDA
published a final rule on statements made for dietary supplements
concerning the effect of the product on the structure or function of
the body. FDA estimated that there were 29,000 dietary supplement
products marketed in the U.S. (65 FR 1000 at 1045). Assuming that the
flow of new products is 10 percent per year, then 2,900 new dietary
supplement products will come on the market each year. The structure/
function final rule estimated that about 69 percent of dietary
supplements have a claim on their labels, most probably a structure/
function claim (65 FR 1000 at 1046). Therefore, we assume that
supplement manufacturers will need time to assemble the evidence to
substantiate each of the 2,001 claims (2,900 x 69 percent) made each
year. If we assume that the 2,001 claims are equally likely to be pre-
existing widely established claims, novel claims, or pre-existing
claims that are not widely established, then we can expect 667 of each
of these types of claims to be substantiated per year. Table 1 of this
document shows that the annual burden hours associated with assembling
evidence for claims is 189,428 (the sum of 667 x 44 hours, 667 x 120
hours, and 667 x 120 hours).

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

[Docket No. CP06-428-000]

Panhandle Eastern Pipeline Company, LP; Notice of Availability of
the Environmental Assessment for the Proposed Tuscola East Replacement
Project

March 7, 2007.
    The staff of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC or
Commission) has prepared an environmental assessment (EA) on the
natural gas pipeline facilities proposed by Panhandle Eastern Pipeline
Company, LP (Panhandle) in the above-referenced docket.
    The EA was prepared to satisfy the requirements of the National
Environmental Policy Act. The staff concludes that approval of the
proposed project, with appropriate mitigating measures, would not
constitute a major federal action significantly affecting the quality
of the human environment.
    The EA assesses the potential environmental effects of the
construction and operation of the proposed project. Panhandle proposes
to replace a total of 31.3 miles of pipeline consisting of three
segments and abandoning in place or by removal the existing 29.4 miles
of pipelines that correspond with the new replacement lines.
Specifically, the project includes:
     Tuscola 100-Line (Douglas County, IL)--Replacing 6.7 miles
of existing 100-Line 20-inch diameter pipeline with 36-inch diameter
pipeline, designating the new pipeline as the 500-Line, and installing
a new pig launcher/receiver;
     Tuscola 200-Line (Douglas County, IL)--Replacing 1.9 miles
of the existing 200-Line 36-inch diameter pipeline with 20-inch
diameter pipeline (the 1.9 miles of 36-inch pipeline replaced would be
used for the new 500-Line);

     Montezuma 100-Line (Parke County, IN)--Replacing 6.6 miles
of the existing 100-Line 20-inch diameter pipeline with 36-inch
diameter pipeline, designating the new pipeline as the 500-Line, and
installing a new pig launcher/receiver; and
     Zionsville 200-Line (Marion, Boone, and Hamilton Counties,
IN)--Replacing 17.9 miles of the existing 200-Line 24-inch diameter
pipeline with 30-inch diameter pipeline, designating the new pipeline
as the 500-Line, and installing a new pig launcher/receiver and a new
mainline valve (MLV).
    Due to the age of Panhandle's existing line and the U.S. Department
of Transportation's Integrity Management Plan regulations, Panhandle
reduced the operating pressure on one line by 20 percent in 2004.
Additional measures to mitigate risk for High Consequence Areas must be
implemented by end of 2011. Panhandle's project purpose is to restore
long-haul transportation capacity from Tuscola heading east to Michigan
by replacing the existing diameter pipeline with larger diameter
pipeline.
    The EA has been placed in the public files of the FERC. A limited
number of copies of the EA are available for distribution and public
inspection at: Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, Public Reference
Room, 888 First Street, NE., Room 2A, Washington, DC 20426, (202) 502-
8371.
    Copies of the EA have been mailed to Federal, State and local
agencies, public interest groups, interested individuals, newspapers,
and parties to this proceeding.
    Any person wishing to comment on the EA may do so. To ensure
consideration prior to a Commission decision on the proposal, it is
important that we receive your comments before the date specified
below.
    Please note that the Commission strongly encourages electronic

                        Anadarko Uintah Midstream, LLC

                           Ouray Compressor Station
                      Uintah and Ouray Indian Reservation
                              Uintah County, Utah

                                  Effective:

                              September 10, 2019

                                    Summary
On January 25, 2018, the EPA received an application from Anadarko Uintah Midstream, LLC (Anadarko), requesting a synthetic minor permit for the Ouray Compressor Station (Ouray) in accordance with the requirements of the Tribal Minor New Source Review (MNSR) Permit Program. This permit action will apply to an existing facility operating on the Uintah and Ouray Indian Reservation in Utah. The physical location is Latitude 40.070928N, Longitude -109.491817W, in Uintah County, Utah. The EPA held a public comment period for the proposed permit from July 30, 2019 to August 28, 2019. The EPA did not receive any comments during the public comment period and, therefore, did not make any changes to the proposed permit per public comment. The EPA did however, make one minor administrative change to the final permit, removing unnecessary language from the proposed permit regarding engine control compliance reporting (conditions 1 and 2 under Section G) that had been inadvertently added.
This permit does not authorize the construction of any new emission sources, or emission increases from existing units, nor does it otherwise authorize any other physical modifications to the facility or its operations. This permit is intended only to incorporate required and requested enforceable emission limits and operational restrictions from a March 27, 2008, federal Consent Decree (CD) between the United States of America (Plaintiff), the State of Colorado, Rocky Mountain Clean Air Action and the Natural Resources Defense Council (Plaintiff-Intervenors); and Kerr-McGee Corporation (Civil Action No. 07-CV-01034-EWN-KMT) and the January 25, 2018 synthetic MNSR application. According to Anadarko, Ouray began operation around January 1, 2000, before the effective date of the MNSR Permit Program (August 23, 2011), and was therefore not subject to any preconstruction authorization requirement. The legally and practicably enforceable CD requirements applied to Ouray before the effective date of the MNSR Permit Program and established the source as a synthetic minor source with regard to the Title V Operating Permit Program at 40 CFR part 71 (Part 71), because the CD limited allowable emissions of carbon monoxide (CO) to a level below the major source threshold (see 40 CFR 71.2). In response to the permit application, the EPA is using the authority at 40 CFR 49.158 to issue a synthetic MNSR program permit that incorporates enforceable emissions limits and restrictions that were previously established through the CD.
Anadarko requested enforceable requirements, consistent with the CD, for the installation and operation of one low-emission tri-ethylene glycol (TEG) dehydration system for control of volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions. Anadarko also requested enforceable requirements for installation and operation of a flare to control VOC emissions from natural gas condensate and produced water storage tanks at the facility, including an associated average daily production limit for natural gas condensate and produced water processed through the tanks. Anadarko also requested an enforceable requirement to install and operate only low-bleed, no-bleed or instrument air-driven pneumatic controllers consistent with the CD. Each of these requested requirements reflect requirements the facility was already subject to under the CD. Among other things, the CD required (unless technically infeasible) high-bleed pneumatic controllers be replaced with low-bleed or no bleed pneumatic controllers at all existing Uinta Basin facilities, which includes Ouray, and that oxidation catalysts be installed and operated on each existing reciprocating internal combustion engine (RICE) operating in the Uinta Basin that is rated at or above 500 horsepower (hp). Ex. 1 § IV.A., ¶¶ 9 - 11; § IV.D., ¶¶ 49 - 57; § IV.E., ¶¶ 63 - 65.

When the MNSR permit is effective, the permit limitations will enhance the legal and practical enforceability of existing requirements from the CD that limit emissions from Ouray below levels which would trigger applicability of other Clean Air Act (CAA) requirements, such as the Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) Permit Program at 40 CFR part 52 and Part 71. The EPA has determined that issuance of this MNSR permit will not contribute to National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) violations or have potentially adverse effects on ambient air quality.

Records shall be kept of all required inspections, including repairs made in response to leaks detected in the closed-vent system. The certification shall be signed by the person the Permittee has designated as primarily responsible for CAA compliance for the source and shall include the following: "I certify under penalty of law that this document and all attachments were prepared under my direction or supervision in accordance with a system designed to assure that qualified personnel properly gather and evaluate the information submitted. Based on my inquiry of the person or persons who manage the system, or those persons directly responsible for gathering the information, the information submitted is, to the best of my knowledge and belief, true, accurate and complete."

 Requirements under Section C. Requirements for the Low-Emission Dehydrator shall be effective upon termination of the March 27, 2008, federal CD between the United States of America (Plaintiff), and the State of Colorado, the Rocky Mountain Clean Air Action and the Natural Resources Defense Council (Plaintiff-Intervenors), and Kerr-McGee Corporation (Civil Action No. 07-CV-01034-EWN-KMT).

 Requirements for Storage Tanks

 Construction, Control and Operational Requirements

 The Permittee shall install, operate and maintain no more than 5 tanks used to store natural gas condensate and produced water, which are limited to a maximum storage capacity of 450 barrels (bbl).

 The Permittee shall, at a minimum, route all-natural gas condensate and produced water storage tank emissions from working, standing, breathing and flashing losses through a closed-vent system to a flare designed and operated as specified in this permit.

 Only the storage tanks that are operated and controlled as specified in this permit are approved for installation under this permit.

 Closed-Vent Systems

 The closed-vent system shall route all gases, vapors and fumes emitted from the natural gas condensate and produced water storage tanks to the flare.

 All vent lines, connections, fittings, valves, relief valves or any other appurtenance employed to contain and collect gases, vapors and fumes and transport them to the flare shall be maintained and operated during any time the device is operating.

 The closed-vent system shall be designed to operate with no detectable emissions.

 If the closed-vent system contains one or more bypass devices that could be used to divert all or a portion of the gases, vapors or fumes from entering the flare, the Permittee shall meet one of following requirements for each bypass device:
 At the inlet to the bypass device that could divert the stream away from the flare and into the atmosphere, properly install, calibrate, maintain and operate a flow indicator that is capable of taking periodic readings and sounding an alarm when the bypass device is open such that the stream is being, or could be, diverted away from the flare and into the atmosphere; or
 Secure the bypass device valve installed at the inlet to the bypass device in the non-diverting position using a car-seal or a lock-and-key type configuration.

 The Permittee shall minimize leaks of hydrocarbon emissions from all vent lines, connections, fittings, valves, relief valves or any other appurtenance employed to contain, collect and transport gases, vapors and fumes to the flare.

 Flare

 The Permittee shall design, install, continuously operate and maintain a flare such that the mass content of the uncontrolled VOC emissions from the natural gas condensate and produced water storage tanks are reduced by at least 95.0% by weight.

 The Permittee shall ensure that the flare has sufficient capacity to achieve at least a 95.0% VOC emission control efficiency for the minimum and maximum hydrocarbon volumetric flow rate and British thermal unit (BTU) content routed to the device.

 The Permittee shall ensure that the flare is designed and operated in accordance with the requirements of 40 CFR 60.18(c) through (e).

 The Permittee shall ensure that the flare is:

             Operated properly at all times that natural gas condensate and produced water storage tank emissions are routed to it;
             Equipped and operated with a liquid knock-out system to collect any condensable vapors (to prevent liquids from going through the device);
             Equipped with a flash-back flame arrestor;
             Equipped with one of the following:

 A continuous burning pilot flame, a thermocouple and a malfunction alarm and notification system if the pilot flame fails; or
 An electronically controlled auto-ignition system with a malfunction alarm and notification system if the pilot flame fails while natural gas condensate and produced water storage tank emissions are routed to it; and

             Maintained in a leak-free condition;
 Operated with no visible smoke emissions; and
 Equipped with a monitoring system for continuous measuring and recording of the parameters that indicate proper operation of the enclosed combustor and the continuous burning pilot flame or automatically controlled automatic ignition system (such as a chart recorder, data logger or similar device).

 The Permittee shall follow the manufacturer's recommended maintenance schedule and operational procedures or recommended maintenance schedule and operational procedures developed by the vendor or Permittee to ensure optimum performance of the closed-vent systems and flare.

 Testing and Monitoring Requirements

             The Permittee shall measure the barrels of natural gas condensate and produced water stored in the tanks each time the liquids are unloaded from the storage tanks using process flow meters and/or sales records. At the end of each calendar month, the total barrels of natural gas condensate and produced water stored in the tanks shall be divided by the number of days in that month to calculate a daily average.

             The Permittee shall perform weekly auditory, visual, olfactory (AVO) inspections of tank thief hatches, covers, seals, pressure relief valves and the closed vent system, to ensure proper condition and functioning. The weekly inspections shall be performed while the natural gas condensate and produced water storage tanks are being filled. If any of the components are not in good working condition, they must be repaired within 15 days of identification of the deficient condition.

             The Permittee shall perform monthly visual inspections of the peak pressure and vacuum values in each tank and the closed-vent system to ensure that the pressure and vacuum relief set points are not being exceeded in a way that has resulted, or might result, in venting of emissions and possible damage to equipment, and to ensure that the closed-vent system operates with no detectable emissions. Monthly visual inspections shall be conducted as follows:

             The monthly inspections shall be performed using an optical gas imaging instrument and while the natural gas condensate and produced water storage tanks are being filled;
             If any detectable emissions or visible smoke emissions are detected using the optical gas imaging instrument, the Permittee shall take the following actions, as applicable:

 The Permittee shall demonstrate that the natural gas condensate and produced water storage tanks and the closed-vent system operate with no detectable emissions using the procedures specified in EPA Method 21 at 40 CFR part 60, appendix A. A potential leak is determined to operate with no detectable emissions if the VOC concentration value measured by the Method 21 detection instrument is less than 500 parts per million volume (ppmv);

 If the closed-vent system or flare fail the detectable emissions or visual emissions test, the Permittee shall follow the manufacturer's, vendor's or Permittee's repair instructions to return the emissions source to compliant operation. All repairs and maintenance activities shall be recorded in a maintenance and repair log and shall be made available for inspection;
 Upon return to operation from any repair and maintenance activity, the closed-vent system or flare shall pass a Method 21 or Method 22 test, as applicable;
 If the closed-vent system or flare fail a follow up Method 21 or Method 22 test, the Permittee shall repeat the procedures in paragraphs (A) through (C) of this section, as applicable, until the closed-vent system or flare passes a follow up test; and
 The monthly VOC emissions calculations required in this permit shall account for the time periods between each failed detectable emissions or visible emissions test, as applicable, and subsequent compliant tests, assuming the emissions were uncontrolled.

             The Permittee shall monitor the operation of the flare to confirm proper operation and demonstrate compliance with the VOC control efficiency requirements of this permit as follows:

 Continuously monitor the flare operation using a malfunction alarm and remote notification system for failures, and checking the system for proper operation whenever an operator is on site at least weekly;
 Continuously monitor all variable operational parameters specified in the manufacturer's written operating instructions and procedures;
 Respond to any observation of improper monitoring equipment operation or any alarm of pilot flame failure and ensure that monitoring equipment is returned to proper operation and/or the pilot flame is relit as soon as practically and safely possible after an observation or an alarm sounds;
 Perform monthly visual inspections of the flare to ensure it operates with no visible smoke emissions. Monthly visual inspections shall be conducted as follows:

                   The monthly inspections shall be while the natural gas condensate and produced water storage tanks are being filled;
                   If any visible smoke emissions are detected the Permittee shall take the following actions:

                         The Permittee shall demonstrate that the flare operates with no visible emissions, except for periods not to exceed a total of 2 minutes during any hour using the procedures specified in EPA Method 22 at 40 CFR part 60, appendix A. The observation period shall be 1 hour;
                         If the flare fails the visual emissions test, the Permittee shall follow the manufacturer's, vendor's or Permittee's repair instructions to return the flare to compliant operation. All repairs and maintenance

                              activities shall be recorded in a maintenance and repair log and shall be made available for inspection;
                         Upon return to operation from any repair and maintenance activity, the flare shall pass a Method 22 test; and
                         If the flare fails a follow up Method 22 test, the Permittee shall repeat the procedures in paragraphs (I) through (III) of this section until the flare passes a follow up test.

             The monthly VOC emissions calculations required in this permit shall account for the time periods between each failed detectable emissions or visible emissions test, as applicable, and subsequent compliant tests, assuming the emissions were uncontrolled.

             Where sufficient to meet the monitoring requirements in this section, the owner or operator may use a SCADA system to monitor and record the required data in paragraphs (a) through (d).

II. General Provisions

A.	Conditional Approval

Pursuant to the authority of 40 CFR 49.151, the EPA hereby conditionally grants this permit to construct. This authorization is expressly conditioned as follows:

 Document Retention and Availability: This permit and any required attachments shall be retained and made available for inspection upon request at the location set forth herein.

 Permit Application: The Permittee shall abide by all representations, statements of intent and agreements contained in the application submitted by the Permittee. The EPA shall be notified 10 days in advance of any significant deviation from this permit application as well as any plans, specifications or supporting data furnished.

 Permit Deviations: The issuance of this permit may be suspended or revoked if the EPA determines that a significant deviation from the permit application, specifications and supporting data furnished has been or is to be made. If the proposed source is constructed, operated or modified not in accordance with the terms of this permit, the Permittee will be subject to appropriate enforcement action.

 Compliance with Permit: The Permittee shall comply with all conditions of this permit, including emission limitations that apply to the affected emissions units at the permitted facility/source. Noncompliance with any permit term or condition is a violation of this permit and may constitute a violation of the CAA and is grounds for enforcement action and for a permit termination or revocation.

 Fugitive Emissions: The Permittee shall take all reasonable precautions to prevent and/or minimize fugitive emissions during the construction period.

 NAAQS and PSD Increments: The permitted source shall not cause or contribute to a NAAQS violation or a PSD increment violation.

 Compliance with Federal and Tribal Rules, Regulations, and Orders: Issuance of this permit does not relieve the Permittee of the responsibility to comply fully with all other applicable federal and tribal rules, regulations and orders now or hereafter in effect.

 Enforcement: It is not a defense, for the Permittee, in an enforcement action to claim that it would have been necessary to halt or reduce the permitted activity in order to maintain compliance with the conditions of this permit.

 Modifications of Existing Emissions Units/Limits: For proposed modifications, as defined at 40 CFR 49.152(d), that would increase an emissions unit allowable emissions of pollutants above its existing permitted annual allowable emissions limit, the Permittee shall first obtain a permit modification pursuant to the MNSR regulations approving the increase. For a proposed modification that is not otherwise subject to review under the PSD or MNSR regulations, such proposed increase in the annual allowable emissions limit shall be approved through an administrative permit revision as provided at 40 CFR 49.159(f).

 Relaxation of Legally and Practically Enforceable Limits: At such time that a new or modified source within this permitted facility/source or modification of this permitted facility/source becomes a major stationary source or major modification solely by virtue of a relaxation in any legally and practically enforceable limitation which was established after August 7, 1980, on the capacity of the permitted facility/source to otherwise emit a pollutant, such as a restriction on hours of operation, then the requirements of the PSD regulations shall apply to the source or modification as though construction had not yet commenced on the source or modification.

 Revise, Reopen, Revoke and Reissue, or Terminate for Cause: This permit may be revised, reopened, revoked and reissued or terminated for cause. The filing of a request by the Permittee, for a permit revision, revocation and reissuance, or termination, or of a notification of planned changes or anticipated noncompliance does not stay any permit condition. The EPA may reopen this permit for a cause on its own initiative, e.g., if this permit contains a material mistake or the Permittee fails to assure compliance with the applicable requirements.

 Severability Clause: The provisions of this permit are severable, and in the event of any challenge to any portion of this permit, or if any portion is held invalid, the remaining permit conditions shall remain valid and in force.

 Property Rights: This permit does not convey any property rights of any sort or any exclusive privilege.

 Information Requests: The Permittee shall furnish to the EPA, within a reasonable time, any information that the EPA may request in writing to determine whether cause exists for revising, revoking and reissuing, or terminating this permit or to determine compliance with this permit. For any such information claimed to be confidential, the Permittee shall also submit a claim of confidentiality in accordance with 40 CFR part 2, subpart B.

 Inspection and Entry: The EPA or its authorized representatives may inspect this permitted facility/source during normal business hours for the purpose of ascertaining compliance with all conditions of this permit. Upon presentation of proper credentials, the Permittee shall allow the EPA or its authorized representative to:

       Enter upon the premises where this permitted facility/source is located or emissions-related activity is conducted, or where records are required to be kept under the conditions of this permit;

       Have access to and copy, at reasonable times, any records that are required to be kept under the conditions of this permit;

       Inspect, during normal business hours or while this permitted facility/source is in operation, any facilities, equipment (including monitoring and air pollution control equipment), practices or operations regulated or required under this permit;

       Sample or monitor, at reasonable times, substances or parameters for the purpose of assuring compliance with this permit or other applicable requirements; and

       Record any inspection by use of written, electronic, magnetic and photographic media.

 Permit Effective Date: This permit is effective immediately upon issuance unless a later effective date is specified in the permit, or unless comments resulted in a change in the proposed permit, in which case this permit is effective 30 days after issuance. If within 30 days after the service of notice of the final permit issuance, a person petitions the Environmental Appeals Board to review any condition(s) of the final permit in accordance with 40 CFR 49.159(d), the specific terms and conditions of the permit that are the subject of the request for review must be stayed.

 Permit Transfers: Permit transfers shall be made in accordance with 40 CFR 49.159(f). The Air and Radiation Division Director shall be notified in writing at the address shown below if the company is sold or changes its name.

      U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region 8
      Air and Radiation Division
      Tribal Air Permitting Program, 8ARD-PM
      1595 Wynkoop Street
      Denver, Colorado  80202

 Invalidation of Permit: Unless this permitted source of emissions is an existing source, this permit becomes invalid if construction is not commenced within 18 months after the effective date of this permit, construction is discontinued for 18 months or more, or construction is not completed within a reasonable time. The EPA may extend the 18-month period upon a satisfactory showing that an extension is justified. This provision does not apply to the time period between the construction of the approved phases of a phased construction project. The Permittee shall commence construction of each such phase within 18 months of the projected and approved commencement date.

 Notification of Start-Up: The Permittee shall submit a notification of the anticipated date of initial startup of this permitted source to the EPA within 60 days of such date, unless this permitted source of emissions is an existing source.

Conversion of Prime Farmland Soils to Urban Lands

An additional aspect of the loss of farmland to urbanization is the
amount of prime farmland soils (those best suited to crop production)
that are removed from the natural resource base.

Prime farmland soils are defined in the USDA-NRCS Title 430 National
Soil Survey Handbook, issued November 1996, as follows: "Prime farmland
is land that has the best combination of physical and chemical
characteristics for producing food, feed, forage, fiber, and oilseed
crops and that is available for these uses. It has the combination of
soil properties, growing season, and moisture supply needed to produce
sustained high yields of crops in an economic manner if it is treated
and managed according to acceptable farming methods. . . . "

Conversion of prime farmland soils to urban lands from 1982 to 1997
totaled an estimated 85,000 acres out of the 249,800 total acres
converted from natural resource lands.

Compared to Total Converted to Urban 1982 to 1997.

The rate of conversion of prime soils to urban lands increased from an
estimated 5,000 acres per year between 1982 and 1992 to 7,000 acres per
year from 1992 to 1997. This is an increase of 40%. The rate of increase
doubled on pastureland and forestland. NRI results indicate little
change in the average annual rate of conversion of prime soils on
rangelands.
