Airworthiness Directives; Airbus SAS Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Department of
Transportation (DOT).

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: We are superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2016-19-14,
which applied to certain Airbus SAS Model A318 and A319 series
airplanes; Model A320-211, -212, -214, -231, -232, and -233 airplanes;
and Model A321-111, -112, -131, -211, -212, -213, -231, and -232
airplanes. AD 2016-19-14 required repetitive inspections for cracking
of the 10VU rack fitting lugs, and repair of any cracking. Since we
issued AD 2016-19-14, we have determined that the unsafe condition may
exist on additional airplanes. This AD continues to require repetitive
inspections for cracking of the 10VU rack fitting lugs, and repair of
any cracking. This AD also adds airplanes to the applicability. We are
issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.

DATES: This AD is effective May 24, 2019.
    The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by
reference of certain publications listed in this AD as of May 24, 2019.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Discussion

    We issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR
part 39 to supersede AD 2016-19-14, Amendment 39-18663 (81 FR 71602,
October 18, 2016) (``AD 2016-19-14''). AD 2016-19-14 applied to certain
Airbus SAS Model A318 and A319 series airplanes; Model A320-211, -212,
-214, -231, -232, and -233 airplanes; and Model A321-111, -112, -131, -
211, -212, -213, -231, and -232 airplanes. The NPRM published in the
Federal Register on November 5, 2018 (83 FR 55299). Since we issued AD
2016-19-14, we have determined that the unsafe condition may exist on
additional airplanes. This AD continues to require repetitive
inspections for cracking of the 10VU rack fitting lugs, and repair of
any cracking. This AD also adds airplanes to the applicability. We are
issuing this AD to address reading difficulties of flight-critical
information displayed to the flightcrew during a critical phase of
flight, such as an approach or takeoff, which could result in loss of
airplane

control at an altitude insufficient for recovery.
    The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which is the Technical
Agent for the Member States of the European Union, has issued EASA AD
2018-0131, dated June 19, 2018 (referred to after this as the Mandatory
Continuing Airworthiness Information, or ``the MCAI''), to correct an
unsafe condition for all Airbus SAS Model A318 and A319 series
airplanes; Model A320-211, -212, -214, -216, -231, -232, and -233
airplanes; and Model A321-111, -112, -131, -211, -212, -213, -231, and
-232 airplanes. The MCAI states:

    During an unscheduled maintenance operation on an A330
aeroplane, the 10VU rack was removed for access and cracks were
discovered on 10VU rack side fittings on lugs 1, 3 and 4. As a
similar design is installed on A320 family aeroplanes, a sampling
review was done to determine the possible fleet impact. The result
showed that several aeroplanes had cracked or broken 10VU rack side
fittings.
    This condition, if not detected and corrected, could lead to a
high vibration level on the primary flight and navigation displays
during critical flight phases (take-off and landing), possibly
creating reading difficulties for the crew.
    Prompted by these findings, Airbus developed mod 35869 to
reinforce the affected rack fitting lugs. For in-service aeroplanes,
Airbus published SB [service bulletin] A320-92-1087 to provide
detailed inspection (DET) and repair instructions. Consequently,
EASA AD 2015-0170 [which corresponds to FAA AD 2016-19-14] was
issued to require, for all pre mod 35869 aeroplanes, repetitive DET
of the affected 10VU rack fitting lugs and, depending on findings,
accomplishment of a repair.
    Since that [EASA] AD was issued, analysis confirmed the need to
extend the inspection to post mod 35869 aeroplanes. Airbus issued SB
A320-92-1119 providing instructions for DET and repair of those
aeroplanes accordingly. Airbus developed mod 157335 to further
reinforce and adjust the affected rack fitting lugs. Analysis is
still ongoing to confirm mod 157335 as terminating action for the
requirements of this [EASA] AD, and further AD action may follow.
    For the reason described above, this [EASA] AD retains the
requirements of EASA AD 2015-0170, which is superseded, expanding
the Applicability to include post mod 35869 aeroplanes, and
requiring, for all aeroplanes, repetitive DET of the affected 10VU
rack fitting lugs and, depending on findings, accomplishment of a
repair [and reporting positive and negative findings to Airbus].

    You may examine the MCAI in the AD docket on the internet at http://www.regulations.gov by searching for and locating Docket No. FAA-2018-
0903.

Comments

    We gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing
this final rule. The following presents the comments received on the
NPRM and the FAA's response to each comment.

Request To Allow Flight With Cracked 10VU Lug

    JetBlue Airways requested that paragraph (i) of the proposed AD be
revised to allow flight with one cracked 10VU lug and to require repair
of that cracked 10VU lug prior to exceeding 5,000 flight cycles, 10,000
flight hours, or within 24 months after the effective date of the AD,
whichever occurred first. The commenter noted that paragraph (i) of the
proposed AD would require repair before further flight even if only one
10VU lug was cracked. The commenter stated that allowing flight with
one cracked 10VU lug would be in line with the requirements of EASA AD
2018-0131, dated June 19, 2018, and the procedures described in Airbus
Service Bulletin A320-92-1087, Revision 03, dated July 31, 2017; and
Airbus Service Bulletin A320-92-1119, dated July 28, 2017. The
commenter noted that if more than one 10VU lug was cracked then the
repair of all cracked 10VU lugs must be done before further flight.
    We disagree with the commenter's request. As noted in the proposed
AD, we have determined that, because of the safety implications and
consequences associated with that cracking, any cracked 10VU rack
fitting lug must be repaired before further flight. Our general policy
does not allow flight with known cracks. This policy is based on the
fact that such damaged airplanes do not conform to the FAA-certificated
type design and, therefore, are not airworthy until a properly approved
repair is made. However, under the provisions of paragraph (m)(1) of
this AD, we will consider requests for approval of an extension of the
compliance time if sufficient data are submitted to substantiate that
the new compliance time would provide an acceptable level of safety, We
have not changed this AD regarding this issue.

Request To Clarify Testing Procedure Requirements

    United Airlines (UAL) requested that the final AD include a
statement that the tests identified as ``Required for Compliance'' (RC)
in Airbus Service Bulletin A320-92-1087, Revision 03, dated July 31,
2017 (``A320-92-1087, Revision 03''); and Airbus Service Bulletin A320-
92-1119, dated July 28, 2017 (``A320-92-1119''), are only applicable if
the component identified in the test was removed and re-installed in
the airplane. The commenter suggested that the final AD allow operators
to conduct tests only on components that were removed so operators
could get access to the areas required to do the inspections.
    The commenter noted that Airbus Service Bulletin A320-92-1087,
Revision 03, subtask 921087-700-002-001, ``Testing,'' provides a list
of components to be tested, but includes a statement that the required
testing is dependent upon which components were removed for access to
do an inspection and then re-installed on the airplane. The commenter
stated that Airbus Service Bulletin A320-92-1119 does not include such
a statement. The commenter explained that having this statement is
important because not every component listed is installed on every 10VU
rack, therefore operators could not do a test on a component that was
never installed, and including this statement would account for
different avionics equipment configurations within the 10VU rack. The
commenter provided the example that some UAL airplanes are not equipped
with angle-of-attack indicators or an integrated stand instrument
system, therefore the required tests could not be accomplished for
these components.
    We agree with the intent of the commenter's request and we will
provide clarification regarding the RC tests. The intent of the RC
tests in the Airbus service information is to require testing of
equipment that was removed for access to do an inspection and then re-
installed in the airplane. The Airbus service information includes this
explanation regarding required testing in different locations. Airbus
Service Bulletin A320-92-1087, Revision 03, paragraph 3.D.(2),
``Subtask 921087-700-002-001, Testing,'' includes a statement that the
testing is dependent upon which components were removed in order to do
an inspection and are being re-installed on the airplane. The location
of this statement in Airbus Service Bulletin A320-92-1119, paragraph
3.D.(2), ``Subtask 921119-710-001-001, Testing,'' is in a note, which
states that ``The test procedure is to be accomplished after the
installation of the equipment removed for access . . . .'' This note
has the same intent as the statement and operators are not expected to
do testing on components that were never installed in the 10VU rack;
operators only have to test components that were removed and then re-
installed. We have not changed this AD regarding this issue.

Request To Refer to Current Service Information

    UAL requested that, prior to publication of the final AD, we verify
that the current published revision level of Airbus Service Bulletin
A320-92-1087 and Airbus Service Bulletin A320-92-1119 are referred to
in the final AD. The comment stated that this would avoid the need to
apply for an alternative method of compliance (AMOC) immediately after
publication of the final AD.
    We agree with the commenter's request and we have verified that
Airbus Service Bulletin A320-92-1087, Revision 03; and Airbus Service
Bulletin A320-92-1119; are the current published revision levels of
these documents. We have not changed this AD regarding this issue.

Request To Revise Reporting Method

    JetBlue Airways requested that paragraph (j) of the proposed AD be
revised to remove the reference to the Airbus Service Bulletin
Reporting Online Application on Airbus World (https://w3.airbus.com/).
The commenter advocated that operators should be allowed to report
their findings to Airbus using a method of their choosing and that the
proposed AD should not specify how operators should report their
findings.
    We agree to clarify. Paragraph (j) of this AD does not require
operators to report their findings using only the Airbus Service
Bulletin Reporting Online Application. Paragraph (j) of this AD
provides operators with the option of either using the Airbus Service
Bulletin Reporting Online Application or submitting the results to
Airbus in accordance with the instructions of Airbus Service Bulletin
A320-92-1087, Revision 03 (for Group 1 airplanes); or Airbus Service
Bulletin A320-92-1119 (for Group 2 airplanes); as applicable. We have
not changed this AD regarding this issue.

Conclusion

    We reviewed the relevant data, considered the comments received,
and determined that air safety and the public interest require adopting
this final rule as proposed, except for minor editorial changes. We
have determined that these minor changes:
     Are consistent with the intent that was proposed in the
NPRM for addressing the unsafe condition; and
     Do not add any additional burden upon the public than was
already proposed in the NPRM.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    Airbus has issued Service Bulletins A320-92-1087, Revision 03,
dated July 31, 2017; and A320-92-1119, dated July 28, 2017. This
service information describes procedures for repetitive inspections for
cracking of the 10VU rack fitting lugs, and repair of any cracking.
These documents are distinct since they apply to airplanes in different
configurations.
    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 461 airplanes of U.S. registry. We
estimate the following costs to comply with this AD:

                                                 Estimated Costs
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                                                Cost per       Cost on U.S.
                          Labor cost                              Parts cost        product         operators
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2 work-hours x $85 per hour = $170...........................              $0             $170          $78,370
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

                 Estimated Costs of On-Condition Actions
------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                             Cost per
              Labor cost                   Parts cost        product
------------------------------------------------------------------------
83 work-hours x $85 per hour = $7,055.          $9,140          $16,195

Paperwork Reduction Act

    A federal agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not
required to respond to, nor shall a person be subject to penalty for
failure to comply with a collection of information subject to the
requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act unless that collection of
information displays a current valid OMB control number. The control
number for the collection of information required by this AD is 2120-
0056. The paperwork cost associated with this AD has been detailed in
the Costs of Compliance section of this document and includes time for
reviewing instructions, as well as completing and reviewing the
collection of information. Therefore, all reporting associated with
this AD is mandatory. Comments concerning the accuracy of this burden
and suggestions for reducing the burden should be directed to the FAA
at 800 Independence Ave. SW, Washington, DC 20591, ATTN: Information
Collection Clearance Officer, AES-200.

Authority for This Rulemaking

    Title 49 of the United States Code specifies the FAA's authority to
issue rules on aviation safety. Subtitle I, section 106, describes the
authority of the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII: Aviation Programs,
describes in more detail the scope of the Agency's authority.
    We are issuing this rulemaking under the authority described in
Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart III, Section 44701: ``General
requirements.'' Under that section, Congress charges the FAA with
promoting safe flight of civil aircraft in air commerce by prescribing
regulations for practices, methods, and procedures the Administrator
finds necessary for safety in air commerce. This regulation is within
the scope of that authority because it addresses an unsafe condition

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

Regulatory Findings

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

airplanes.

(d) Subject

    Air Transport Association (ATA) of America Code 92, Electric and
Electronic Common Installation.

(e) Reason

    This AD was prompted by a report of cracks found during
maintenance inspections on certain 10VU rack fitting lugs. We are
issuing this AD to address reading difficulties of flight-critical
information displayed to the flightcrew during a critical phase of
flight, such as an approach or takeoff, which could result in loss
of airplane control at an altitude insufficient for recovery.

(f) Compliance

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

(g) Definitions

    For the purpose of this AD, Group 1 airplanes are in a pre-
Airbus Modification 35869 configuration, and Group 2 airplanes are
in a post-Airbus Modification 35869 configuration.

(h) Repetitive Inspections

    (1) For Group 1 airplanes: At the later of the times specified
in table 1 to paragraph (h)(1) of this AD, and thereafter at
intervals not to exceed 20,000 flight cycles or 40,000 flight hours,
whichever occurs first, do a detailed inspection for cracking of the
10VU rack fitting lugs, in accordance with the Accomplishment
Instructions of Airbus Service Bulletin A320-92-1087, Revision 03,
dated July 31, 2017.
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR19AP19.000

    (2) For Group 2 airplanes: At the later of the times specified
in paragraphs (h)(2)(i) and (h)(2)(ii) of this AD, and thereafter at
intervals not to exceed 20,000 flight cycles or 40,000 flight hours,
whichever occurs first, do a detailed inspection for cracking of the
10VU rack fitting lugs, in accordance with the Accomplishment
Instructions of Airbus Service Bulletin A320-92-1119, dated July 28,
2017.
    (i) Prior to exceeding 30,000 total flight cycles or 60,000
total flight hours, whichever occurs first.
    (ii) Within 30 days after the effective date of this AD.

(i) Repair

    If any crack is found during any inspection required by
paragraph (h)(1) or (h)(2) of this AD: Before further flight, do a
repair in accordance with the Accomplishment Instructions of Airbus
Service Bulletin A320-92-1087, Revision 03, dated July 31, 2017 (for
Group 1 airplanes); or Service Bulletin A320-92-1119, dated July 28,
2017 (for Group 2 airplanes); as applicable. Repair of a 10VU rack
fitting lug does not terminate the repetitive inspections required
by paragraphs (h)(1) and (h)(2) of this AD.

(j) Reporting

    At the applicable time specified in paragraph (j)(1) or (j)(2)
of this AD: Submit a report of findings (positive and negative) of
each inspection required by paragraph (h) of this AD to Airbus
Service Bulletin Reporting Online Application on Airbus World
(https://w3.airbus.com/), or submit the results to Airbus in
accordance with the instructions of Airbus Service Bulletin A320-92-
1087, Revision 03, dated July 31, 2017 (for Group 1 airplanes); or
Service Bulletin A320-92-1119, dated July 28, 2017 (for Group 2
airplanes); as applicable. Where Figure A-FAAAA, Sheet 02, of
Appendix 01, ``Inspection Report,'' of Airbus Service Bulletin A320-
92-1087, Revision 03, dated July 31, 2017; and Figure A-FAAAA, Sheet
02, of Appendix 01, ``Inspection Report,'' of Service Bulletin A320-
92-1119, dated July 28, 2017; specifies sending removed lugs to
Airbus for investigation, this AD does not include that requirement.
    (1) If the inspection was done on or after the effective date of
this AD: Submit the report within 90 days after the inspection.
    (2) If the inspection was done before the effective date of this
AD: Submit the report within 90 days after the effective date of
this AD.

(k) Credit for Previous Actions

    This paragraph provides credit for actions required by
paragraphs (h)(1) and (i) of this AD if those actions were performed
before the effective date of this AD using Airbus Service Bulletin
A320-92-1087, Revision 02, dated November 25, 2014.

(l) Paperwork Reduction Act Burden Statement

    A federal agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not
required to respond to, nor shall a person be subject to a penalty
for failure to comply with a collection of information subject to
the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act unless that
collection of information displays a current valid OMB Control
Number. The OMB Control Number for this information collection is
2120-0056. Public reporting for this collection of information is
estimated to be approximately 1 hour per response, including the
time for reviewing instructions, completing and reviewing the
collection of information. All responses to this collection of
information are mandatory. Comments concerning the accuracy of this
burden and suggestions for reducing the burden should be directed to
the FAA at: 800 Independence Ave. SW, Washington, DC 20591, Attn:
Information Collection Clearance Officer, AES-200.

(m) Other FAA AD Provisions

    (1) Alternative Methods of Compliance (AMOCs): The Manager,
International Section, Transport Standards Branch, FAA, has the
authority to approve AMOCs for this AD, if requested using the
procedures found in 14 CFR 39.19. In accordance with 14 CFR 39.19,
send your request to your principal inspector or local Flight
Standards District Office, as appropriate. If sending information
directly to the International Section, send it to the attention of
the person identified in paragraph (n)(2) of this AD. Information
may be emailed to: [email protected]. Before using any
approved AMOC, notify your appropriate principal inspector, or
lacking a principal inspector, the manager of the local flight
standards district office/certificate holding district office.
    (2) Contacting the Manufacturer: As of the effective date of
this AD, for any requirement in this AD to obtain corrective actions
from a manufacturer, the action must be accomplished using a method
approved by the Manager, International Section, Transport Standards
Branch, FAA; or the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA); or
Airbus SAS's EASA Design Organization Approval (DOA). If approved by
the DOA, the approval must include the DOA-authorized signature.
    (3) Required for Compliance (RC): If any service information
contains procedures or tests that are identified as RC, those
procedures and tests must be done to comply with this AD; any
procedures or tests that are not identified as RC are recommended.
Those procedures and tests that are not identified as RC may be
deviated from using accepted methods in accordance with the
operator's maintenance or inspection program without obtaining
approval of an AMOC, provided the procedures and tests identified as
RC can be done and the airplane can be put back in an airworthy
condition. Any substitutions or changes to procedures or tests
identified as RC require approval of an AMOC.

40 CFR Part 52

[EPA-R04-OAR-2019-0613; FRL-10015-83-Region 4]

Air Plan Approval; NC: Revisions to Annual Emissions Reporting

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to
approve a State Implementation Plan (SIP) revision submitted by the
State of North Carolina, through the North Carolina Department of
Environmental Quality, Division of Air Quality (DAQ), on July 10, 2019.
The SIP revision seeks to modify the State's annual emissions reporting
regulation by removing the annual emissions reporting requirement for
certain non-Title V facilities in geographic areas that have been
redesignated to attainment for the 1979 1-hour ozone national ambient
air quality standards (``NAAQS'' or ``standards'') and in the areas
listed in the rule that have been redesignated to attainment for the
1997 8-hour ozone

NAAQS, with the exception of the geographic areas that have been
redesignated to attainment for the 2008 8-hour ozone NAAQS. The SIP
revision also makes minor changes that do not significantly alter the
meaning of the regulation. EPA is proposing to approve this revision
pursuant to the Clean Air Act (CAA or Act).

DATES: Comments must be received on or before November 27, 2020.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    In 1979, EPA promulgated a NAAQS for ozone, setting the standard at
0.12 parts per million (ppm) averaged over a 1-hour time frame. See 44
FR 8202 (February 8, 1979). In 1997, EPA promulgated a revised NAAQS
for ozone, setting the standard at 0.08 ppm averaged over an 8-hour
time frame. See 62 FR 38856 (July 18, 1997).\1\ In 2008, EPA revised
the level of the 8-hour ozone standard to 0.075 ppm. See 73 FR 16436
(March 27, 2008). The promulgation of a new or revised NAAQS triggers a
CAA requirement for EPA to designate as nonattainment any area that
violates the NAAQS or contributes to a violation in a nearby area.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ EPA has revoked the 1979 and 1997 ozone standards. See 69 FR
23951 (April 30, 2004) and 80 FR 12264 (March 6, 2015),
respectively.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    On November 6, 1991, EPA published designations and classifications
for the 1979 1-hour ozone NAAQS.\2\ See 56 FR 56694. EPA initially
published designations and classifications for the revised 1997 8-hour
and revised 2008 8-hour ozone standards on April 30, 2004 (69 FR 23858)
and May 21, 2012 (77 FR 30088), respectively. The geographic areas
designated as nonattainment in North Carolina for the 1997 8-hour ozone
standard included the Charlotte-Gastonia-Rock Hill, NC-SC Area (the
North Carolina portion is hereinafter the ``1997 Charlotte Area'').\3\
The geographic areas designated as nonattainment in North Carolina for
the 2008 ozone standard are part of an area known as the Charlotte-Rock
Hill, NC-SC Area (the North Carolina portion is hereinafter the ``2008
Charlotte Area'').\4\ EPA redesignated North Carolina's 1979 ozone
nonattainment areas to attainment in a series of actions from 1993 to
1995,\5\ redesignated the 1997 Charlotte Area to attainment on December
2, 2013 (78 FR 72036), and redesignated the 2008 Charlotte Area to
attainment on July 28, 2015 (80 FR 44873).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ EPA designated the following geographic areas in North
Carolina as nonattainment for the 1979 ozone standard: Davidson,
Durham, Forsyth, Gaston, Guilford, Mecklenburg, and Wake Counties,
the Dutchville Township in Granville County, and that part of Davie
County bounded by the Yadkin River, Dutchmans Creek, North Carolina
Highway 801, Fulton Creek and back to the Yadkin River.
    \3\ The geographic areas designated as nonattainment in North
Carolina for the 1997 ozone standard included all geographic areas
designated as nonattainment for the 1979 ozone standard as well as
additional areas. The 1997 Charlotte Area consists of Cabarrus,
Gaston, Lincoln, Mecklenburg, Rowan, and Union Counties and Davidson
Township and Coddle Creek Township in Iredell County.
    \4\ The 2008 Charlotte Area is a subset of the 1997 Charlotte
Area and consists of Central Cabarrus Township, Concord Township,
Georgeville Township, Harrisburg Township, Kannapolis Township,
Midland Township, Mount Pleasant Township, New Gilead Township,
Odell Township, Poplar Tent Township, and Rimertown Township in
Cabarrus County; Crowders Mountain Township, Dallas Township,
Gastonia Township, Riverbend Township, and South Point Township in
Gaston County; Davidson Township and Coddle Creek Township in
Iredell County; Catawba Springs Township, Ironton Township, and
Lincolnton Township in Lincoln County; Atwell Township, China Grove
Township, Franklin Township, Gold Hill Township, Litaker Township,
Locke Township, Providence Township, Salisbury Township, Steele
Township, and Unity Township in Rowan County; and Goose Creek
Township, Marshville Township, Monroe Township, Sandy Ridge
Township, and Vance Township in Union County.
    \5\ See 58 FR 47391 (November 9, 1993), 59 FR 18300 (April 18,
1994), and 60 FR 34859 (July 5, 1995).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    North Carolina was required to develop nonattainment SIP revisions
addressing the CAA requirements for its ozone nonattainment areas.
Among other things, North Carolina was required to address the annual
emissions reporting requirement in CAA section 182(a)(3)(B), which
requires each state with an ozone nonattainment area to submit a SIP
revision requiring stationary sources that emit 25 tons per year (tpy)
or more of nitrogen oxides (NOX) or volatile organic
compounds (VOC) within the nonattainment area to provide certified
annual emissions statements to the state showing actual annual
NOX and VOC emissions from the source.
    On August 1, 1997 (62 FR 41277), EPA approved the State's annual
emissions reporting requirement at 15A NCAC Subchapter 02Q Section
.0207,\6\ Annual Emissions Reporting, into the North Carolina SIP for
the geographic areas designated as nonattainment for the 1979 ozone
NAAQS.\7\ On January 31, 2008, North Carolina submitted a SIP revision
adding the 1997 Charlotte Area to its annual emissions reporting
requirement as a result of EPA's nonattainment designations for the
1997 8-hour ozone standard.\8\ On April 24, 2012 (77 FR 24382), EPA
approved that SIP revision and added the 1997 Charlotte Area to the
annual emissions reporting requirement in the North Carolina SIP to
meet the requirements of CAA section 182(a)(3)(B).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ In the table of North Carolina regulations federally
approved into the SIP at 40 CFR 52.1770(c), 15A NCAC Subchapter 02Q
is referred to as ``Subchapter 2Q Air Quality Permits.''
    \7\ Section .0207 also contains an annual reporting requirement
at paragraph (a) for owners and operators of title V facilities in
the State.
    \8\ The SIP revision added Cabarrus, Lincoln, Rowan, and Union
Counties and Davidson Township and Coddle Creek Township in Iredell
County to the emissions reporting requirement.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Paragraph (c) of Section .0207 lists the geographic areas in North
Carolina where owners or operators of certain non-title V facilities
with actual emissions of 25 tons per year or more of NOX or
VOC are required to report by June 30th of each year the actual
emissions of NOX and VOC during the previous year. Paragraph
(d) identifies the date that the annual reporting requirement in
paragraph (c) shall begin.

II. Analysis of North Carolina's Submittal

    North Carolina's July 10, 2019, SIP revision \9\ updates Section
.0207 in several ways. First, the SIP revision proposes to revise
paragraph (c) by removing the annual emissions reporting requirement
for certain non-Title V facilities located in geographic areas that
were previously designated nonattainment for the 1979 1-hour ozone
standards and in the redesignated 1997 Charlotte Area, with the
exception of the geographic areas that are in the redesignated 2008
Charlotte Area.\10\ The SIP revision retains the annual emissions
reporting requirement for certain non-Title V facilities located in the
geographic areas that comprise the redesignated 2008 Charlotte Area by
listing those specific areas in paragraph (c). The SIP revision also
makes changes to paragraph (d) by removing specific counties and
townships and replacing them with a cross-reference to paragraph (c).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ The State submitted the SIP revision following the
readoption of several air regulations, including 15A NCAC Subchapter
02Q .0207, pursuant to North Carolina's 10-year regulatory
readoption process at North Carolina General Statute 150B-21.3A.
    \10\ As noted above, the 2008 Charlotte Area is a subset of the
1997 Charlotte Area.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Currently, 55 facilities are required under paragraph (c) to submit
annual emissions statements to North Carolina DAQ by June 30th of each
year. The proposed rule change would remove the reporting requirement
for 43 of these 55 facilities, thus reducing administrative reporting
requirements for the 43 affected facilities. These facilities are still
required to comply with their operating permits.
    Section 110(l) of the CAA prevents EPA from approving a SIP
revision that would interfere with any applicable requirement
concerning attainment and reasonable further progress, or any other
applicable CAA requirement. EPA proposes to determine that the changes
described above are approvable because they would not interfere with
attainment or maintenance of any NAAQS and because the geographic areas
removed from the rule have been redesignated to attainment and are
therefore no longer required to meet the emissions statement
requirements in section 182(a)(3)(B) of the CAA.
    Second, North Carolina's July 10, 2019, SIP revision makes changes
to paragraph (d) of Section .0207 to update the calendar year that the
emissions reporting requirement begins from 2007 to 2017 to coincide
with the year during which North Carolina adopted the rule changes. EPA
proposes to approve this change because it is administrative in nature.
    Finally, the SIP revision makes minor grammatical changes in
paragraphs (a) and (b) of Section .0207 and adds a citation in
paragraph (e) that identifies the DAQ Director's statutory authority to
require reporting. EPA proposes to approve these edits because they are
minor changes that do not alter the meaning of the regulation.

III. Incorporation by Reference

    In this proposed rule, EPA is proposing to include in a final EPA
rule regulatory text that includes incorporation by reference. In
accordance with requirements of 1 CFR 51.5, EPA is proposing to
incorporate by reference 15A NCAC Subchapter 02Q Section .0207, Annual
Emissions Reporting, state effective April 1, 2018, which removes
annual emissions reporting requirement for certain non-Title V
facilities; updates the calendar year when the annual emissions
reporting requirement begins; and makes several minor editorial
changes. EPA has made, and will continue to make, these materials
generally available through www.regulations.gov and at the EPA Region 4
office (please contact the person identified in the FOR FURTHER
INFORMATION CONTACT section of this preamble for more information).

IV. Proposed Action

    EPA is proposing to approve the North Carolina SIP revision
submitted on July 10, 2019, revising 15A NCAC Subchapter 02Q Section
.0207, Annual Emissions Reporting. Specifically, EPA is proposing to
approve removal of the annual emissions reporting requirement for
certain non-Title V facilities in geographic areas that have been
redesignated to attainment for the 1979 1-hour ozone NAAQS and in the
redesignated 1997 Charlotte Area, while retaining the requirement for
the redesignated 2008 Charlotte Area. Additionally, EPA is proposing to
approve the change in paragraph (d) that updates the calendar year that
the emissions reporting requirement begins from 2007 to 2017 and
several minor editorial changes to the rule.

V. 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. See 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 they meet the criteria of the CAA. This action merely proposes
to approve state law as meeting Federal requirements and does not
impose additional requirements beyond those imposed by state law. For
that reason, this proposed action:
     Is not a significant regulatory action subject to review
by the Office of Management and Budget under Executive Orders 12866 (58
FR 51735, October 4, 1993) and 13563 (76 FR 3821, January 21, 2011);
     Is not an Executive Order 13771 (82 FR 9339, February 2,
2017) regulatory action because SIP approvals are exempted under
Executive Order 12866;
     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 (Public Law 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 CAA; 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).
    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 as specified by Executive Order 13175 (65
FR 67249, November 9, 2000), nor will it impose substantial direct
costs on tribal governments or preempt tribal law.

Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans; Wisconsin;
Volatile Organic Compound Emission Control Measures for Milwaukee and
Sheboygan Ozone Nonattainment Areas

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA is approving, under the Clean Air Act (the Act), revisions
to the Wisconsin State Implementation Plan (SIP) submitted on September
1, 2009, November 16, 2011, and January 26, 2012. The purpose of these
revisions is to satisfy the Act's requirement that states revise their
SIPs to include Reasonably Available Control Technology (RACT) for
sources of Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) emissions in moderate ozone
nonattainment areas. Wisconsin's VOC rules provide RACT requirements
for the Milwaukee-Racine and Sheboygan 1997 8-hour ozone nonattainment
areas. These rules are approvable because they are consistent with the
Control Technique Guideline (CTG) documents issued by EPA in 2006 and
2007 and satisfy the RACT requirements of the Act. EPA proposed this
rule for

approval on February 22, 2012, and received no comments.

DATES: This final rule is effective on September 6, 2012.

ADDRESSES: EPA has established a docket for this action under Docket ID
EPA-R05-OAR-2009-0695. All documents in the docket are listed on the

action?
III. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

I. What public comments were received on the proposed approval?

    EPA proposed this rule for approval on February 22, 2012, and
received no comments.

 II. What action is EPA taking today and what is the basis of this
action?

    EPA is taking final action to approve into Wisconsin's SIP VOC RACT
rules for the Milwaukee-Racine and Sheboygan 1997 8-hour ozone
nonattainment areas that were submitted on September 1, 2009, November
16, 2011, and January 26, 2012. The purpose of these rules is to
satisfy the Act's requirement that states revise their SIPs to include
RACT for sources of VOC emissions in moderate ozone nonattainment
areas. Wisconsin's VOC rules provide RACT requirements for the
Milwaukee-Racine and Sheboygan 1997 8-hour ozone nonattainment areas.
These rules are approvable because they are consistent with the CTG
documents issued by EPA in 2006 and 2007 and satisfy the RACT
requirements of the Act.

III. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

    Under the Act, the Administrator is required to approve a SIP
submission that complies with the provisions of the Act and applicable
Federal regulations. 42 U.S.C. 7410(k); 40 CFR 52.02(a). Thus, in
reviewing SIP submissions, EPA's role is to approve state choices,
provided that they meet the criteria of the Act. 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 Order
12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993);
     Does not impose an information collection burden under the
provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.);
     Is certified as not having a significant economic impact
on a substantial number of small entities under the Regulatory
Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.);
     Does not contain any unfunded mandate or significantly or
uniquely affect small governments, as described in the Unfunded
Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-4);
     Does not have Federalism implications as specified in
Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999);
     Is not an economically significant regulatory action based
on health or safety risks subject to Executive Order 13045 (62 FR
19885, April 23, 1997);
     Is not a significant regulatory action subject to
Executive Order 13211 (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001);
     Is not subject to requirements of Section 12(d) of the
National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272
note) because application of those requirements would be inconsistent
with the 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, this rule does not have tribal implications as
specified by Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000),
because the SIP is not approved to apply in Indian country located in
the State, and EPA notes that it will not impose substantial direct
costs on tribal governments or preempt tribal law.
    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 Act, petitions for judicial review
of this action must be filed in the United States Court of Appeals for
the appropriate circuit by October 9, 2012. 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).)

    (123) On September 1, 2009, November 16, 2011, and January 26,
2012, the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources submitted new and
revised rules to be incorporated into its SIP. Wisconsin revised it
Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) rules to satisfy the Clean Air Act's
(Act) requirement that states revise their SIPs to include Reasonably
