SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    I. Overview: GM has determined that certain MY 2010-2017 GMC
Terrain motor vehicles do not fully comply with paragraph S10.15.6 and
Table XIX of FMVSS No. 108, Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated
Equipment (49 CFR 571.108). GM filed a noncompliance report dated May
15, 2019, pursuant to 49 CFR part 573, Defect and Noncompliance
Responsibility and Reports. GM subsequently petitioned NHTSA on June 7,
2019, for an exemption from the notification and remedy requirements of
49 U.S.C. Chapter 301 on the basis that this noncompliance is
inconsequential as it relates to motor vehicle safety, pursuant to 49
U.S.C. 30118(d) and 30120(h) and 49 CFR part 556, Exemption for
Inconsequential Defect or Noncompliance.
    This notice of receipt of GM's petition, is published under 49
U.S.C. 30118 and 30120 and does not represent any agency decision or
other exercises of judgment concerning the merits of the petition.
    II. Equipment and Vehicles Involved: Approximately 726,959 MY 2010-
2017 GMC Terrain motor vehicles manufactured between May 21, 2009 and
July 13, 2017 are potentially involved.
    III. Noncompliance: GM explains that the noncompliance is that the
subject vehicles are equipped with lower beam headlamps that do not
meet the photometry requirements of paragraph S10.15.6 and Table XIX of
FMVSS No. 108. Specifically, a reflection from the headlamps' housing
is directed 80 degrees outboard and 45 degrees upward, as measured from
each lamp's optical axis, which dimly illuminates two small areas high
above the vehicle. When tested, this reflection from a single point on
each lamp burns at 450-470 cd, more than three times brighter than the
designated maximum of 125 cd at test points 10[deg] U to 90[deg] U.
    IV. Rule Requirements: Paragraph S10.15.6 and Table XIX of FMVSS
No. 108 includes the requirements relevant to this petition. Each
replaceable bulb headlamp must be designed to conform to the photometry
requirements of Table XVIII for upper beam and Table XIX for lower beam
as specified in Table II-d for the specific headlamp unit and aiming
method, when tested according to the procedure of paragraph S14.2.5
using any replaceable light source designated for use in the system
under test.
    V. Summary of GM's Petition: GM described the subject noncompliance
and stated its belief that the noncompliance is inconsequential as it
relates to motor vehicle safety.
    In support of its petition, GM submitted the following reasoning:
    1. The refection has no effect on vehicle safety for oncoming or
surrounding vehicles. The narrow reflection in question does not create
a safety risk for oncoming or surrounding drivers, due to the extreme
angle of the reflection. This angle, 80 degrees outboard and 45 degrees
upward from each lamp's optical axis, is far above the range where the
reflection could cause glare for oncoming or surrounding drivers,
including the industry-recognized ``glare points'' referenced in Table
XIX of FMVSS No. 108 at the following ranges: 0.5[deg] U-1.5[deg] L to
L, i[deg] U-1.5[deg] L to L, 0.5[deg] U-1[deg] R to R, 1.5[deg] U-[deg]
R to R.
    2. The reflection has no effect on vehicle safety for drivers of
the subject vehicles. The areas illuminated by the narrow reflections
in question are not visible to drivers of the subject vehicles. These
two small areas appear high above the vehicle, one to the far left and
the other to the far right of the vehicle, well outside of the driver's
view.
    GM says, while these reflections may be somewhat perceptible in
certain extremely dense fog or snow conditions, there would be no
effect on vehicle safety due to the small size and far outboard
location in the driver's peripheral field of view. Any detectable light
would be negligible compared to other outside sources of illumination
such as glare from oncoming traffic or fog glare forward of the vehicle
from any FMVSS-compliant headlamp.
    3. GM is aware of only a single customer inquiry associated with
this condition, and is not aware of any crashes or injuries. GM
reviewed all relevant field data and found just a single customer
inquiry within the US and Canadian vehicle population of nearly 820,000
vehicles sold, 726,595 of which in the US and 92,747 in Canada, over
eight model years. The customer stated, ``Left head lamp seems to have
a portion of the light that shines up in the trees at near a 45-degree
angle.'' GM identified no other related field reports, including in
warranty, TREAD, VOQ, and legal data.
    4. The headlamps comply with recognized industry standards. GM
cited S6.1.1 of the SAE International Standard J1383, Performance
Requirements for Motor Vehicle Headlamps (May 26, 2010), which sets
forth certain industry-recognized intensity and size limits on headlamp
photometrics. Specifically, for a zone extending 20[deg] left to
20[deg] right, and 10[deg] to 60[deg] up from the lamp optical axis,
the light projected cannot exceed 550 candelas and cannot occupy more
than five percent of the zone's total area. The reflection from the
subject lamps is well outside of this zone. Even if the reflections
were within this zone, the headlamps would remain compliant, as the
reflection would not exceed the maximum of five percent of the total
area or the maximum of 550 candelas.

    5. The headlamps comply with applicable requirements for global
regions, including UNECE R1123. S6.2.4 and Annex 3, Figure B of UNECE
R112 specify photometric test points for the passing beam (i.e., lower
beam headlamp). The photometric points extend to 4[deg] above the lamp
optical axis. The subject reflection is well above those test points.
    6. The subject condition has been corrected for service parts and
does not affect current-generation vehicles. GM is purging all affected
service and replacement headlamps from dealer stock. Stanley has
redesigned service and replacement headlamps to add graining to the
inadvertent reflecting surfaces, which will prevent the reflections
that are the cause of the issue. These redesigned lamps are expected to
be available June 12, 2019. Current-generation GMC Terrain vehicles
(model years 2018 and newer) use a different headlamp design and are
not affected by this condition.
    GM concluded that the subject noncompliance is inconsequential as
it relates to motor vehicle safety, and that its petition to be
exempted from providing notification of the noncompliance, as required
by 49 U.S.C. 30118, and a remedy for the noncompliance, as required by
49 U.S.C. 30120, should be granted.
    NHTSA notes that the statutory provisions (49 U.S.C. 30118(d) and
30120(h)) that permit manufacturers to file petitions for a
determination of inconsequentiality allow NHTSA to exempt manufacturers
only from the duties found in sections 30118 and 30120, respectively,
to notify owners, purchasers, and dealers of a defect or noncompliance
and to remedy the defect or noncompliance. Therefore, any decision on
this petition only applies to the subject vehicles that GM no longer
controlled at the time it determined that the noncompliance existed.
However, any decision on this petition does not relieve vehicle
distributors and dealers of the prohibitions on the sale, offer for
sale, or introduction or delivery for introduction into interstate
commerce of the noncompliant vehicles under their control after GM
notified them that the subject noncompliance existed.

    Authority:  (49 U.S.C. 30118, 30120: delegations of authority at
49 CFR 1.95 and 501.8).

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

[Docket Nos. CP19-494-000; PF19-1-000]

Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line Company, LLC; Notice of
Application

    Take notice that on July 31, 2019, Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line
Company, LLC (Transco), Post Office Box 1396, Houston, Texas 7725,
filed an application in Docket No. CP19-494-000 pursuant to Sections
7(b) and 7(c) of the Natural Gas Act and Part 157 of the Commission's
Regulations, for a Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity to
construct and operate its Leidy South Project, or Project. The Leidy
South Project would expand Transco's existing pipeline system to enable
it to provide an additional 582,400 dekatherms per day of firm
transportation service to three shippers, and abandon a small portion
of its existing facilities, all as more fully described in the
application which is on file with the Commission and open to public
inspection. The filing may also be viewed on the web at http://www.ferc.gov using the ``eLibrary'' link. Enter the docket number
excluding the last three digits in the docket number field to access
the document. For assistance, contact FERC at
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>or call toll-free,<PHONE_NUMBER> or TTY,
(202) 502-8659.
    Specifically, Transco seeks authorization for the: (1) Construction
and operation of approximately 8.7 miles of 36-inch-diameter looping
facilities and the related abandonment of 5.8 miles of 23.375-inch-
diameter pipeline in Clinton County, Pennsylvania; (2) construction and
operation of approximately 3.6 miles of 42-inch-diameter looping
facilities in Lycoming County, Pennsylvania; (3) the addition of 45,871
horsepower (hp) at two existing compressor stations Wyoming and
Columbia Counties, Pennsylvania; and (4) construction and operation of
two new compressor stations totaling 78,801 hp in Luzerne and
Schuylkill Counties, Pennsylvania. The estimated cost of the Project is
$531.12 million.
    The Leidy South Project also includes a lease of 330,000 dekatherms
per day of capacity from National Fuel Gas Supply Corporation's FM 100
Project that was filed with the Commission on July 18, 2019 in Docket
No. CP19-491-000. The Leidy South Project also includes a lease of
Meade Pipeline Company, LLC's ownership interest of certain Project
facilities.
    Any questions regarding this application should be directed to
Allison Jenkins, P.O. Box 1396, Houston, Texas 77251 or by telephone at
(713) 215-2238. Transco has also established a toll-free telephone
number,<PHONE_NUMBER>, so that parties can call with questions about
the Project as well as an email support address
(PipelineExpansion@williams.com).
    Pursuant to section 157.9 of the Commission's rules, 18 CFR 157.9,
within 90 days of this Notice the Commission staff will either:
Complete its environmental assessment (EA) and place it into the
Commission's public record (eLibrary) for this proceeding, or issue a
Notice of Schedule for Environmental Review. If a Notice of Schedule
for Environmental Review is issued, it will indicate, among other
milestones, the anticipated date for the Commission staff's issuance of
the final environmental impact statement (FEIS) or EA for this
proposal. The filing of the EA in the Commission's public record for
this proceeding or the issuance of a Notice of Schedule for
Environmental Review will serve to notify federal and state agencies of
the timing for the completion of all necessary reviews, and the
subsequent need to complete all federal authorizations within 90 days
of the date of issuance of the Commission staff's FEIS or EA.
    There are two ways to become involved in the Commission's review of
this project. First, any person wishing to obtain legal status by
becoming a party to the proceedings for this project should, on or
before the comment date stated below file with the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street NE, Washington, DC 20426, a
motion to intervene in accordance with the requirements of the
Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.214 or
385.211) and the Regulations under the NGA (18 CFR 157.10). A person
obtaining party status will be placed on the service list maintained by
the Secretary of the Commission and will receive copies of all
documents filed by the applicant and by all other parties. A party must
submit 3 copies of filings made in the proceeding with the Commission
and must provide a copy to the applicant and to every other party. Only
parties to the proceeding can ask for court review of Commission orders
in the proceeding.
    However, a person does not have to intervene in order to have
comments considered. The second way to participate is by filing with
the Secretary of the Commission, as soon as possible, an original and
two copies of comments in support of or in opposition to this Project.
The Commission will consider these comments in determining the
appropriate action to be taken, but the filing of a comment alone will
not serve to make the filer a party to the proceeding. The Commission's
rules require that persons filing comments in opposition to the project
provide copies of their protests only to the party or parties directly
involved in the protest.
    Persons who wish to comment only on the environmental review of
this project should submit an original and two copies of their comments
to the Secretary of the Commission. Environmental commentors will be
placed on the Commission's environmental mailing list, and will be
notified of any meetings associated with the Commission's environmental
review process. Environmental commentors will not be required to serve
copies of filed documents on all other parties. However, the non-party
commentors will not receive copies of all documents filed by other
parties or issued by the Commission and will not have the right to seek
court review of the Commission's final order.
    As of the February 27, 2018 date of the Commission's order in
Docket No. CP16-4-001, the Commission will apply its revised practice
concerning out-of-time motions to intervene in any new Natural Gas Act
section 3 or section 7 proceeding.\1\ Persons desiring to become a
party to a certificate proceeding are to intervene in a timely manner.
If seeking to intervene out-of-time, the movant is required to show
good cause why the time limitation should be waived, and should provide
justification by reference to factors set forth in Rule 214(d)(1) of
the Commission's Rules and Regulations.\2\

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

    The Commission strongly encourages electronic filings of comments,
protests and interventions in lieu of paper using the eFiling link at
http://www.ferc.gov. Persons unable to file electronically should
submit an original and 3 copies of the protest or intervention to the
Federal Energy regulatory Commission, 888 First Street NE, Washington,
DC 20426.

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

[FRL-9663-7]

Clean Air Act Operating Permit Program; Petitions for Objection
to State Operating Permits for Consolidated Environmental Management,
Inc.--Nucor Steel Louisiana

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice of final action.

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

SUMMARY: This document announces that the EPA Administrator has
responded to citizen petitions asking EPA to object to operating
permits (Permit No. 2560-0028-V0, Permit No. 3086-V0, and Permit No.
2560-0028-V1) issued by the Louisiana Department of Environmental
Quality (LDEQ). Specifically, the Administrator has granted the June
25, 2010 and May 3, 2011 petitions, submitted by Zen-Noh Grain
Corporation (``Zen-Noh'' or ``Petitioner'') to object to the May 24,
2010 and January 27, 2011, operating permits issued to Consolidated
Environmental Management, Inc.--Nucor Steel Louisiana (``Nucor'') in
Saint James Parish, Louisiana. Pursuant to sections 307(b) and
505(b)(2) of the Clean Air Act (CAA), a petition for judicial review of
those parts of the Order that deny issues in the petition may be filed
in the United States Court of Appeals for the appropriate circuit
within 60 days from the date this notice appears in the Federal
Register.

ADDRESSES: You may review copies of the final Order, the petition, and
other supporting information at EPA Region 6, 1445 Ross Avenue, Dallas,
Texas 75202-2733.
    EPA requests that if at all possible, you contact the individual
listed in the FOR FURTHER INFROMATION CONTACT section to view copies of
the final Order, petition, and other supporting information. You may
view the hard copies Monday through Friday, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.,
excluding Federal holidays. If you wish to examine these documents, you
should make an appointment at least 24 hours before the visiting day.
Additionally, the final Order for the Consolidated Environmental
Management, Inc.--Nucor Steel Louisiana (``Nucor'') is available
electronically at: http://www.epa.gov/region07/air/title5/petitiondb/petitions/nucor_steel_response_2012_zennoh.pdf.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Dinesh Senghani at<PHONE_NUMBER>,
email address<EMAIL_ADDRESS>or the above EPA, Region 6
address.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The CAA affords EPA a 45-day period to
review, and object to as appropriate, a Title V operating permit
proposed by State permitting authorities. Section 505(b)(2) of the Act
authorizes any person to petition the EPA Administrator, within 60 days
after the expiration of this review period, to object to a Title V
operating permit if EPA has not done so. Petitions must be based only
on objections to the permit that were raised with reasonable
specificity during the public comment period provided by the State,
unless the petitioner demonstrates that it was impracticable to raise
these issues during the comment period or the grounds for the issue
arose after this period.
    EPA received two petitions from the Petitioners dated June 25, 2010
and May 3, 2011, requesting that EPA object to the issuance of the
Title V operating permits to Consolidated Environmental Management,
Inc.--Nucor Steel Louisiana (``Nucor''), for the operation of the Pig
Iron and Direct Reduced Iron (DRI) manufacturing facility in Saint
James Parish, Louisiana for the following reasons:
    In the 2010 Petition for the pig iron title V permit, the
Petitioner makes the following claims: (1) The Best Achievable Control
Technology (``BACT'') determinations are unsupported and inadequate
under the Prevention of Significant Deterioration program (``PSD'') and
Louisiana's State Implementation Plan (``SIP''); (2) LDEQ failed to
require BACT for major sources of pollutants; (3) LDEQ failed to
require reliable ambient air quality modeling to ensure that the
facility's emissions will not cause an exceedance of a National Ambient
Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) or PSD increment; (4) LDEQ unlawfully
issued the permits without requiring preconstruction monitoring for
particulate matter less than 10 microns (PM10), sulfur
dioxide (SO2), hydrogen sulfide (H2S), total
reduced sulfur (TRS) and sulfuric acid mist; and (5) LDEQ unlawfully
issued the pig iron PSD permit without providing the required
opportunity for public participation in the decision-making process.
    In the 2011 Petition for the modified title V pig iron permit and
for the DRI title V permit, the Petitioner makes the following claims:
(1) Permitting construction of the DRI process and pig iron process as
separate projects unlawfully circumvents the requirements of PSD and
the Louisiana SIP; (2) The ambient air quality analysis to demonstrate
compliance with the nitrogen dioxide (``NO2'') NAAQS
unlawfully relied on the elimination of heat recovery steam generator
(``HRSG'') bypass vents on the coke ovens and installation of selective
catalytic reduction (``SCR'') control devices on pig iron emission
units, even though these emission reductions are not federally
enforceable; (3) Authorizing installation of SCR control devices by way
of the modified pig iron title V permit violates PSD and the SIP
because SCR will significantly increase emissions of sulfuric acid
mist; (4) LDEQ violated PSD and the SIP by issuing the DRI permits
without preconstruction ambient air quality monitoring; (5) The DRI
permits violate PSD and the SIP because the DRI PSD permit does not
include BACT determinations with specific emission limitations and
compliance provisions; therefore, the DRI title V permit does not
incorporate all applicable requirements; (6) LDEQ violated PSD and the
SIP by issuing the DRI permits and the modified pig iron title V permit
without a BACT emission limitation for particulate matter less than 2.5
microns (PM2.5); and (7) the BACT determinations in the DRI
PSD permit do not comply with the requirements of PSD and the SIP.
    On March 23, 2012, the Administrator issued an order granting both
petitions. The order explains the reasons behind EPA's conclusion to
grant these petitions.
