I. What action is EPA proposing to take?

    EPA is proposing to approve Iowa's request to redesignate the
Council Bluffs area to attainment for the 2008 Pb NAAQS. On September
18, 2017, the state submitted a request for redesignation that
demonstrates NAAQS attainment and an associated maintenance plan to
ensure that the area continues to attain the standard. Based on its
review of the state's submittal which is described in detail in the
following sections, EPA proposes to approve the redesignation request
for the area and associated maintenance plan.

II. Background for EPA's Proposed Action

    On October 15, 2008, EPA promulgated a revision to the Pb NAAQS,
lowering the standard from 1.5 micrograms per cubic meter ([micro]g/
m\3\) to 0.15 [micro]g/m\3\ (73 FR 66963). The state began air
monitoring for Pb on November 3, 2009, at a source-oriented monitor in
the Council Bluffs area near the Griffin Pipe Products Company, LLC

(Griffin Pipe) facility. The 2010 through 2012 design value for Pb at
the monitor was 0.26 [micro]g/m\3\, violating the 2008 Pb NAAQS.
    Effective December 31, 2011, EPA designated a portion of
Pottawattamie County, Council Bluffs, Iowa, as nonattainment for the
2008 Pb NAAQS (76 FR 72097). On February 3, 2015, the Iowa Department
of Natural Resources (IDNR) submitted a plan to bring the area back
into attainment of the standard. EPA approved the state's SIP revision
in a Federal Register notice dated February 26, 2016 (81 FR 9770). The
area attained the 2008 Pb NAAQS by the statutory deadline of December
31, 2016. The 2014 through 2016 design value for the area is 0.10
[micro]g/m\3\.
    The mechanisms to enforce the attainment SIP revision are an
Administrative Consent Order between Griffin Pipe and the state, and an
air construction permit issued to Alter Metal Recycling, the adjacent
facility that provided scrap metal to Griffin Pipe. On May 3, 2014,
Griffin Pipe ceased operations. The approved attainment SIP revision
includes two operational strategies for Griffin Pipe, options A and B.
Under option A, the facility resumes operations with operational
control measures to limit emissions. Option B provides for the
permitting and installation of a baghouse to control emissions and less
operating restrictions. To date, Griffin Pipe has not resumed
operations of its Council Bluffs facility, but the emissions controls
for either option to resume manufacturing are permanent and
enforceable.
    Alter Metal Recycling continues to operate its facility under an
air construction permit which contains a Reasonably Available Control
Technology (RACT) limit and work practice standards in the form of
paving and sweeping cleaning haul routes with a HEPA vacuum street
sweeper. Also, Alter's construction permit contains limitations on
truck traffic and total materials shipped are not to exceed 946,000
tons per rolling twelve-month period. In its construction permit, Alter
is required to conduct silt sampling on haul routes internal to the
facility boundaries at three locations to demonstrate that the silt
content on roadways is less than 2.70 g/m\2\. The facility is not
required to sweep if there has been 0.2 inches of rain within a twenty-
four-hour period, the haul routes have not been used that day, or the
weather is too hazardous to conduct sweeping (e.g., ice or snow).
Alter's permit restricts truck traffic speeds on internal haul routes
to twenty miles per hour. Recordkeeping to document haul route sweeping
and weather conditions if sweeping is not conducted is required to be
maintained for two years.

III. EPA's Analysis of the State's Request

    The CAA provides the requirements for redesignating a nonattainment
area to attainment. Specifically, section 107(d)(3)(E) of the CAA
allows for redesignation provided the following criteria are met: (1)
The Administrator determines that the area has attained the applicable
NAAQS; (2) the Administrator has fully approved the applicable
implementation plan for the area under section 110(k); (3) the
improvement in air quality is due to permanent and enforceable
reductions in emissions resulting from implementation of the applicable
SIP and applicable Federal air pollutant control regulations and other
permanent and enforceable reductions; (4) the Administrator has fully
approved a maintenance plan for the area as meeting the requirements of
section 175A; and (5) the state containing such area has met all
requirements applicable to the area under section 110 and part D of
title I of the CAA.

A. Criteria (1)--The Area Has Attained the 2008 Pb NAAQS

    For designating a nonattainment area to attainment, the CAA
requires EPA to determine that the area has attained the applicable
NAAQS (CAA section 107(d)(3)(E)(i)). EPA is proposing to determine that
the portions of Pottawattamie County, Council Bluffs, Iowa, that
previously violated the 2008 Pb NAAQS are now attaining it.
    According to 40 CFR part 50, appendix R, the 2008 Pb NAAQS is met
at a monitoring site when the identified design value is valid and is
less than or equal to 0.15 [micro]g/m\3\. The form of the standard is
based on the maximum three-month rolling average over a three-year
period (thirty-six rolling calendar quarters, or thirty-eight total
months). The design value is the highest Pb concentration recorded for
a rolling three-month calendar quarter over a three-year period. The
area has not recorded a Pb value at the air monitor greater than 0.15
[micro]g/m\3\ during any rolling three-month calendar quarter since
December 2012. As discussed above, the 2014 through 2016 design value,
which is the three-year period for which valid data are available at
this time, is 0.10 [micro]g/m\3\.

B. Criteria (2)--The Area Has a Fully Approved SIP Under Section 110(k)

    As discussed above, EPA approved the state's SIP revision in a
Federal Register rulemaking dated February 26, 2016 (81 FR 9770). EPA
believes that the state has met all of the requirements for approval of
the state's attainment SIP revision. The requirements of the attainment
SIP revision remain fully enforceable, including contingency measures
in the event that the air monitor would record a future violation for
the area.

C. Criteria (3)--The Air Quality Improvement Is Due to Permanent and
Enforceable Reductions in Emissions Resulting From Implementation of
the Applicable SIP and Applicable Federal Air Pollutant Control
Regulations and Other Permanent and Enforceable Reductions

    For redesignating a nonattainment area to attainment, section
107(d)(3)(E)(iii) of the CAA requires EPA to determine that the air
quality improvement in the area is due to permanent and enforceable
reduction in emissions resulting from implementation of the SIP and
applicable Federal air pollution control regulations and other
permanent and enforceable reductions. EPA proposes to find that Iowa
has demonstrated that the observed air quality improvement in the
Council Bluffs area is due to permanent and enforceable reductions in
emissions resulting from implementation of the SIP.
    The Council Bluffs Pb nonattainment SIP included an Administrative
Consent Order between IDNR and Griffin Pipe dated January 29, 2015, and
an air construction permit for Alter Metal Recycling dated September 2,
2014. Griffin Pipe is no longer operating at its Council Bluffs
facility, which reduces the amount of Pb measured at the air monitor.
In both scenarios, options A or B, under which Griffin Pipe may resume
operations, there are emissions limitations and work practice controls
that are expected to maintain NAAQS attainment. Both scenarios include
haul road sweeping and cleaning, implementation of a scrap management
plan to minimize the amount of Pb materials introduced to the melting
process, and the use of Best Management Practices to control fugitive
dust. The major difference between the two options is that option A
employs more stringent production limits to control emissions; whereas,
option B allows for greater production, but requires the facility to
install a baghouse for greater emissions control. IDNR modeled both
options and both demonstrate attainment of the standard. Thus, despite
the uncertainty of whether Griffin Pipe will resume operations, EPA
believes that the

emissions reductions imposed by the approved SIP revision will continue
to be permanent and enforceable.
    With regard to Alter Metal Recycling, the fugitive dust re-
entrained by traffic along the haul routes within the facility is
controlled by an air construction permit. The construction permit
requires, among other things, paving of haul routes for truck traffic
within the facility boundaries, limits on the hours of operation, a
posted speed limit of twenty miles per hour to control re-entrainment
of dust, and work practice standards that include sweeping haul routes
using a HEPA filter vacuum truck. EPA believes that Alter's air
construction permit provides permanent and enforceable controls on
fugitive Pb dust emissions.

D. Criteria (4)--The Administrator Has Fully Approved a Maintenance
Plan for the Area as Meeting the Requirements of Section 175A

    In conjunction with its redesignation request submitted to EPA on
September 18, 2017, IDNR also submitted a maintenance plan to provide
for the ongoing attainment of the 2008 Pb NAAQS for at least ten years
following the effective date of approval of the redesignation SIP
revision. EPA believes the maintenance plan meets the requirements of
section 175A of the CAA. Section 175A of the CAA establishes
requirements for maintenance plans for seeking redesignation from
nonattainment to attainment. EPA's interpretation of section 175A is
contained in a September 4, 1992, Memorandum from John Calcagni,
Director (at that time), Air Quality Management Division, to the
directors of the air programs in the ten EPA regions. The Calcagni
Memorandum provides guidance on the content of a maintenance plan,
explaining that it should address five requirements: (1) An emissions
inventory; (2) a maintenance demonstration; (3) an air quality
monitoring commitment; (4); verification of continued attainment; and
(5) a contingency plan. The following provides a discussion of how EPA
believes the state's maintenance plan meets the requirements of 175A.
1. Emissions Inventory
    The state is required to develop an inventory of actual emissions
to identify the level of emissions sufficient to attain the NAAQS.
Since Griffin Pipe is currently idled, IDNR provided an analysis of
potential to emit (PTE) rather than actual emissions, because it
believes the actuals are an underestimation. For Griffin Pipe, IDNR
estimates PTE to be 0.254 tpy for option A and 0.392 tpy for option B
based on the allowable emissions in the Administrative Consent Order.
For Alter Metal Recycling, IDNR estimates that its current PTE is 0.61
tpy based on the allowable emissions in its air construction permit.
EPA believes the state has satisfied the requirement to develop an
attainment inventory.
2. Maintenance Demonstration
    The state may generally demonstrate maintenance of the 0.15 ug/m\3\
standard by either showing that future Pb emissions will not exceed the
level of the attainment inventory, or by modeling to show that the
future mix of sources and emission rates will not cause a violation of
the 2008 Pb NAAQS. The demonstration should be for a period of ten
years following the redesignation, e.g., until 2028 for the maintenance
plan update.
    The state demonstrates attainment of the standard using the
attainment inventory since it is based on maximum permitted allowable
emissions and Pb emissions are not expected to increase over the
maintenance period. Further, IDNR relied on the attainment plan
modeling submitted in 2015 as a part of the EPA approved SIP.
Dispersion modeling is a more sophisticated means of demonstrating
maintenance because it incorporates meteorology, topography, and source
characteristics in addition to permitted allowable emissions rates. The
attainment demonstration modeling followed current EPA guidance, used
the EPA-approved modeling software, AERMOD, and maximum permitted
emissions rates. No significant changes in modeling inputs have
occurred since its submittal and none are anticipated through the
maintenance period. Therefore, EPA finds that the state has
demonstrated that Iowa has demonstrated maintenance of the 2008 Pb
NAAQS.
3. Monitoring Network
    Once an area has been redesignated, the state has committed in its
Redesignation Request and Maintenance Plan for the Pb Nonattainment
Area in Council Bluffs, Iowa, that it will continue to operate the air
quality monitor (site ID 19-155-0011) in accordance with 40 CFR part
58. Air modeling has shown this monitoring location to be in the
predicted area of maximum impact from fugitive emissions from both
Griffin Pipe and Alter Metal Recycling. Thus, this air monitoring
location continues to be acceptable for verifying continued NAAQS
attainment. The state will continue to operate a Pb monitor at this
location for a minimum of ten years. As required by section 175A, eight
years following redesignation, the state shall submit an additional
maintenance plan. The Pb monitoring network will be revisited at that
time.
4. Verification of Continued Attainment
    The state has the legal authority to enforce and implement the
requirements of Administrative Consent Order for Griffin Pipe and the
construction permit for Alter Metal Recycling to ensure ongoing
attainment of the 2008 Pb NAAQS. These SIP-approved documents contain
the permanent and enforceable measures for controlling Pb emissions.
Should another source of Pb emissions to air seek a permit in the area
to construct a new source or modify an existing one, the state will
evaluate on a case-by-case basis the potential impacts to air quality
and NAAQS attainment. State law also gives IDNR the ability to
establish more stringent emissions standards and/or the ability to
require the installation of additional control equipment to ensure the
attainment or maintenance of the NAAQS.
    The state commits in its maintenance plan to continue to operate
its Pb monitoring site to verify the attainment status of the area and
will continue to follow the air monitoring network review process, as
required by 40 CFR part 58, to determine the adequacy of the Pb
monitoring network when monitoring may be discontinued.
5. Contingency Plan
    Section 175A(d) of the CAA requires that a maintenance plan include
contingency provisions, as necessary, to promptly correct any violation
of the NAAQS that occurs after redesignation to attainment. The state
has established a trigger that will initiate a timely response to
indications of a possible future violation of the 2008 Pb NAAQS: It
will evaluate the need for additional control measures if any three-
month rolling average concentration of 0.14 ug/m\3\(approximately 95
percent of the standard) or greater is measured at the ambient air
monitor. The state will require that any necessary measures be
implemented as expeditiously as practicable. IDNR has the authority
(Iowa Code 455B.134) to issue orders consistent with rules to cause the
abatement or control of air pollution to ensure that the NAAQS are not
violated. The approach of using a trigger at approximately 95 percent
of the standard is expected, along with the previously approved SIP
control measures, to ensure maintenance of the standard.

    Contingency measures in the approved attainment SIP revision dated
February 26, 2016 (81 FR 9770) remain available and enforceable. If a
NAAQS violation occurs after redesignation, at a minimum the IDNR will
require the implementation of all measures, including the contingency
measures, contained in the nonattainment plan for the area prior to the
redesignation of the area to attainment. The nonattainment plan
contingency measures for Griffin Pipe are specified in conditions A-5,
paragraph O, and B-5, paragraph O, of the Administrative Order on
Consent (2015-AQ-02). The contingency measures for Alter Metal
Recycling are specific in condition 14.L of its air construction permit
(14-A-521). These contingency measures include, for example, additional
haul road sweeping/cleaning requirements.
    The state also has the authority to request or conduct new or
supplemental reviews of Pb emissions from sources and activities
affecting the nonattainment area. Contingency measures may include
improvements to permitted control devices, or improvements to work
practice standards, such as additional haul route sweeping. Once
determined, the state will submit to EPA an analysis to demonstrate
that the proposed measures are adequate to return the area to
attainment.

E. Criteria (5)--The Area Has Met All Applicable Requirements Under
Section 110 and Part D

    Section 110(a)(2) of title I of the CAA delineates the general
requirements for a SIP, which include enforceable emissions limitations
and other control measures, means, or techniques; provisions for the
establishment and operation of appropriate devices necessary to collect
data on ambient air quality; and programs to enforce the limitations.
These requirements include, but are not limited to, the following: (1)
Submittal of a SIP that has been adopted by the state after reasonable
public notice and hearing; (2) provisions for establishment and
operation of appropriate procedures needed to monitor ambient air
quality; (3) implementation of a source permit program and provisions
for the implementation of a Prevention of Significant Deterioration
(PSD) program; (4) provisions for the implementation of Nonattainment
New Source Review (NSR); (5) provisions for air pollution modeling; and
(6) provisions for public and local agency participation in planning
and emission control rule development.
    The requirements for the area to have enforceable emissions
limitations and other control measures as well as an appropriate air
monitoring program for collecting air quality data were met in the
approved attainment SIP revision dated February 26, 2016 (81 FR 9770).
As ambient air monitoring data demonstrate, the means and methods of
the attainment SIP revision have been successful in restoring air
quality to attainment with the NAAQS.
    The other requirements of section 110(a)(2) pertain to the
administration of the state program to ensure the effectiveness of its
overall air quality management program. The adequacy of the remaining
elements of section 110(a)(2) including the state's PSD and
Nonattainment NSR programs, its ability to conduct air modeling and
provisions for public participation in air planning are addressed in
EPA's November 14, 2015 final approval of the state's infrastructure
SIP revision (80 FR 48791). In EPA's final approval of the state's
infrastructure SIP revision for the 2008 Pb NAAQS, program elements
necessary to ensure the enforcement and maintenance of air quality
standards were determined to be adequate to meet the requirements of
section 110(a)(2).
    Finally, section 107(d)(3)(E)(v) requires that the redesignation
plan meet the requirements of part D. Section 172(c)identifies key
provisions that states must address in a nonattainment SIP, including:
(1) Provisions for attainment and the timely implementation of all
reasonably available control technology (RACT) and reasonably available
control measures (RACM); (2) reasonable further progress (RFP); (3) an
emissions inventory for the nonattainment area; (4) Nonattainment NSR;
(5) a control strategy with enforceable limits and schedules and
timetables for compliance; and (6) contingency measures.
    The approved attainment SIP revision dated February 26, 2016 (81 FR
9770) contains legally enforceable control measures and includes an
evaluation of how those measures meet RACT and RACM. The approved
attainment SIP also included a plan for making RFP. All of the
contingency measures in the approved attainment SIP revision are
available and enforceable for use, if necessary. An emissions inventory
is included in the attainment SIP revision and this inventory is
updated in the Redesignation Request and Maintenance Plan as discussed
in paragraph III, criteria 4 a. above. The state's Nonattainment NSR is
approved in the infrastructure SIP revision (80 FR 48791).

IV. Summary of Proposed Action

    EPA is proposing to approve Iowa's request to redesignate the
Council Bluffs area to attainment for the 2008 Pb NAAQS. Based on its
detailed analysis above, EPA believes that the state's September 18,
2017, request for redesignation demonstrates NAAQS attainment and the
associated maintenance plan will ensure that the area continues to
attain the standard. Thus, EPA proposes to approve the redesignation
request for the area and associated maintenance plan.

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. 42 U.S.C. 7410(k); 40 CFR 52.02(a). Thus, in
reviewing SIP submissions, EPA's role is to approve state choices,
provided that they meet the criteria of the CAA. Accordingly, this
action merely approves state law as meeting Federal requirements and
does not impose additional requirements beyond those imposed by state
law. For that reason, this action:
     Is not a significant regulatory action subject to review
by the Office of Management and Budget under Executive Orders 12866 (58
FR 51735, October 4, 1993) and 13563 (76 FR 3821, January 21, 2011);
     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 (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 the National Technology
Transfer and

Advancement Act (NTTA) because this rulemaking does not involve
technical standards; 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 and will not impose substantial direct
costs on tribal governments or preempt tribal law as specified by
Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000).
