Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans;
New Hampshire; Reasonably Available Control Technology for Nitrogen
Oxides and Volatile Organic Compounds
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency.
ACTION: Direct final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is approving State
Implementation Plan (SIP) revisions submitted by the State of New
Hampshire. These revisions contain an updated regulation establishing
reasonably available control technology (RACT) for sources of nitrogen
oxides (NOX), four updated source-specific orders for either
volatile organic compound (VOC) or NOX RACT, and a request
to withdraw from the SIP a previously approved NOX RACT
order. The intended effect of this action is to approve the updated
NOX RACT regulation and updated VOC and NOX RACT
orders into the New Hampshire SIP, and to also approve New Hampshire's
request to remove one NOX RACT order from the SIP. This
action is being taken in accordance with the Clean Air Act.
DATES: This direct final rule will be effective October 20, 2014,
unless EPA receives adverse comments by September 22, 2014. If adverse
comments are received, EPA will publish a timely withdrawal of the
direct final rule in the Federal Register informing the public that the
rule will not take effect.

III. Final Action
IV. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
I. Background and Purpose
On March 31, 2011, the State of New Hampshire submitted a formal
request for a revision to its State Implementation Plan (SIP). The
requested SIP revision consists of updates to and a renumbering of its
existing regulation establishing reasonably available control
technology (RACT) for sources of nitrogen oxides (NOX).
Additionally, New Hampshire submitted facility specific VOC or
NOX RACT orders for the following four facilities on the
dates noted: Concord Litho Group, submitted December 31, 2013; Gorham
Paper and Tissue, LLC, submitted October 19, 2012; Sturm, Ruger &
Company, Inc., submitted February 4, 2013; and Textile Tapes
Corporation, submitted November 16, 2012. Of final note, on December
16, 2013, New Hampshire submitted a
[[Page 49459]]
request to withdraw a previously approved NOX RACT order for
Plymouth State College from the SIP. For background on the Clean Air
Act requirement for RACT and how it relates to New Hampshire, see 77 FR
66388, November 5, 2012.
II. Description of Submittals
1. Part Env-A 1300, NOX RACT
EPA has approved previous versions of New Hampshire's
NOX RACT rule for both the 1-hour ozone and 1997 8-hour
ozone standards into the New Hampshire SIP. Our initial approval of New
Hampshire's NOX RACT rule occurred on April 9, 1997 (see 62
FR 17092), and we approved an update to that rule in the Federal
Register on November 5, 2012 (see 77 FR 66388). Today's action approves
the minor updates described below, and also incorporates a renumbering
of this regulation from Part Env-A 1211, as it was formerly identified
in our two previous actions, to Chapter Env-A 1300. New Hampshire did
not submit Env-A 1300, NOX RACT, on March 31, 2011 to meet
its RACT obligation under the national ambient air quality standard
(NAAQS) for ozone revised by EPA in 2008.
In relation to the renumbering, we also note that on November 8,
2012 (see 77 FR 66921), we approved into the New Hampshire SIP the
State's VOC RACT rule, a portion of which, at the time of our approval,
was codified at Part Env-A 1211 (the same codification associated with
our November 5, 2012 and earlier NOX RACT approvals). Our
approval of New Hampshire's VOC RACT regulation on November 8, 2012,
therefore had the inadvertent effect of ``overwriting'' New Hampshire's
NOX RACT SIP regulations in the official compilation of the
SIP maintained by EPA and the Office of the Federal Register. In
accordance with our error correction authority under CAA section
110(k)(6), we are correcting the error caused by our inadvertent
``overwriting'' of New Hampshire's NOX RACT regulations by
revising the official compilation of the New Hampshire SIP to include
Part Env-A 1300, NOX RACT. Apart from the recodification and
error correction described above, the substantive changes being made to
New Hampshire's NOX RACT rule are described below.
a. Revision Applicable to Emission Units Using Electronic Timing
New Hampshire's original regulation had required all internal
combustion engines to undergo a manual timing adjustment, but
experience gained through implementation of that requirement indicated
that manual adjustments to units equipped with electronic timing were
not feasible. Additionally, most new engines were equipped with
electronic timing. Therefore, New Hampshire has removed the requirement
for manual timing adjustments for units equipped with electronic
timing, but retained the requirement for units that are not equipped
with electronic timing.
b. Consolidation of Requirements for Testing, Recordkeeping, and
Recording
New Hampshire's air pollution control regulations include Part Env-
A 800, Testing and Monitoring Procedures, and Part Env-A 900, Owner or
Operator Recordkeeping and Reporting Obligations. These rules have been
approved into the New Hampshire SIP. See 77 FR 66388, November 5, 2012.
New Hampshire's updated NOX RACT regulation clarifies and
updates the cross-referencing to these two rules.
c. Clarification of Use of Discrete Emission Reductions for Compliance
Part Env-A 1315.03(a) was added to clarify that sources subject to
the state's NOX RACT rule could comply by the purchase or
generation of discrete emission reduction credits pursuant to Env-A
3100, Discrete Emission Reduction Trading Program. However, as noted
within our approval of New Hampshire's RACT certification for the 1997
8-Hour ozone standard (77 FR 66388; November 5, 2012), Env-A 3100 has
not been approved into the New Hampshire SIP. Therefore, any order
issued by the New Hampshire DES that provides for compliance with
NOX RACT by use of Env-A 3100 will need to be approved into
the New Hampshire SIP.
d. Clarification of Procedures for Issuance of a RACT Order
Part Env-A 1316, NOX RACT Orders, was amended to clarify
for the regulated community the steps that must be taken to request a
NOX RACT order containing a NOX RACT limit that
differs from those found within Env-A 1300. This section was also
expanded to describe the actions that the New Hampshire DES will take
upon receipt of such a request, including submitting the order to EPA
as a SIP revision, and the maximum amount of time the state agency will
take to complete these actions.
e. Change to Wording of Applicability Section
Part Env-A 1301.02, Applicability, was amended by inserting
language in certain subsections to clarify for the regulated community
the universe of sources subject to NOX RACT. The language in
question, ``and the permitting applicability levels specified in Env-A
607.01 are met,'' was added to Env-A 1301.02(b), for example. Env-A
1301.02(b) is the provision of New Hampshire's NOX RACT
regulations defining the universe of utility boilers subject to
NOX RACT. Env-A 607.01, referenced in Env-A 1301.02(b), is
the section of New Hampshire's statewide permit regulations containing
preconstruction (or temporary) permit requirements for new and modified
sources.\1\ In the ``Response to Comments'' document included in the
March 31, 2011 SIP submittal, New Hampshire DES explained that the new
language is intended only to indicate that the permitting applicability
levels (i.e., source ``sizes'') contained in Env-607.01 must also be
met before NOX RACT applies. Furthermore, New Hampshire
clarified that the new language is not intended to suggest that only
new or modified emissions units are subject to NOX RACT,
i.e. that the added language is consistent with a requirement that
existing sources are also subject to NOX RACT under New
Hampshire's regulation. EPA is therefore approving the added language
because it is consistent with CAA requirements for NOX RACT
applicability.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ Note that Env-A 607.01 is the section of New Hampshire's
state regulations containing the permitting requirements in
question, and that Env-A 607.01 is one subsection of Env-A 600, New
Hampshire's Statewide Permit System regulations. The permit
requirements now codified in Env-A 607.01 under state law were
approved earlier by EPA into the New Hampshire SIP in a different
section of Part Env-A 600 (Statewide Permit System).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
f. Cross Reference to Env-A 2000
On June 30, 2014, New Hampshire submitted a letter requesting that
a phrase within Env-A 1311.03(a)(5) not be incorporated into the SIP
because it cross-references a New Hampshire state regulation, Env-A
2000, that is not a part of the SIP. Therefore, as requested, we are
not approving the phrase ``or any opacity standard specified in Env-A
2000'' in subparagraph Env-A 1311.03(a)(5).
2. NOX RACT for Gorham Paper and Tissue
On October 19, 2012, New Hampshire submitted NOX RACT
Order No. ARD-97-003 for the Gorham Paper and Tissue facility located
in Gorham, New Hampshire, as a revision to the SIP. The premises was
formerly owned and operated by the Crown Vantage
[[Page 49460]]
Company, and New Hampshire DES originally issued RACT Order No. ARD-97-
003 on September 24, 1997. New Hampshire DES submitted that original
order to EPA as a SIP revision request, and we approved it into the New
Hampshire SIP on May 13, 1998. See 63 FR 26455. On May 13, 2011, Gorham
Paper and Tissue acquired ownership of the facility, and on January 20,
2012, submitted a NOX RACT Analysis and RACT Order
Application for a new tissue dryer machine. On October 19, 2012, New
Hampshire DES issued an update of Order No. ARD-97-003 to the facility,
and submitted the order to EPA as a SIP revision request on that same
day.
The updated order establishes NOX RACT for the tissue
drying machine, requiring the installation and operation of ultra low
NOX burners, and an emission limitation of 0.035 lbs/mmBTU
on a 24-hour calendar day average. The order also requires that initial
and periodic stack tests be conducted. Additionally, the updated order
adds a NOX RACT emission limit of 0.25 lbs/mmBTU based on a
24-hour calendar day average for Boilers 1 and 2 at the facility when
these boilers combust natural gas, and also provides testing
requirements for these units. Lastly, a number of RACT requirements
applicable to equipment that has been removed from the facility were
deleted from the RACT order. EPA is approving this revised order
because it is consistent with CAA requirements for NOX RACT
and with New Hampshire's NOX RACT regulation.
3. NOX RACT for Plymouth State College
On December 16, 2013, New Hampshire DES submitted a request to
withdraw from the SIP a NOX RACT order previously issued to
Plymouth State College. Prior to 2013, Plymouth State routinely
operated two electrical generators to provide power to the facility.
During 2013, a decision was made to purchase all of the College's
electricity from the grid, and to keep the two electrical generators as
emergency backup generators. While functioning as a primary source of
electricity for Plymouth State, operation of the generators was
regulated by the requirements of NOX RACT order ARD-95-002,
issued to Plymouth Cogeneration Limited Partnership, which was approved
into the New Hampshire SIP on April 9, 1997. See 62 FR 17087. As
emergency generators, the operation of these units are now governed by
New Hampshire regulation Env-A 1311, Emergency Generators, thus
obviating the need for NOX RACT order ARD-95-002.
Accordingly, New Hampshire DES issued rescission of Final RACT Order
No. ARD-95-002, dated December 16, 2013. EPA is therefore approving New
Hampshire's request to withdraw the facility's NOX RACT
order from the SIP.
4. VOC RACT for Concord Litho Group
On December 31, 2013, New Hampshire DES submitted an updated VOC
RACT order for the Concord Litho Group located in Concord, New
Hampshire. The primary cause for updating the order was to remove
specific set point temperatures for the two regenerative thermal
oxidizers used by the facility to reduce VOC emissions. In place of
these defined set points, New Hampshire has updated the order with a
requirement that the temperature set points be determined by the most
recently approved stack test that successfully demonstrated at least a
90% destruction efficiency. This update was made in light of the
facility's periodic stack testing requirement, and the unique
temperature set points that these tests produce. EPA is approving this
revised order because it is consistent with CAA requirements for VOC
RACT and with New Hampshire's Chapter Env-A 1200, VOC RACT regulation.
5. VOC RACT for Sturm, Ruger & Company
On February 4, 2013, New Hampshire DES submitted an updated VOC
RACT order for the Sturm, Ruger & Company facility located in Newport,
New Hampshire. Previously, EPA approved VOC RACT Order No. ARD-03-001
into the New Hampshire SIP within a final rule published in the Federal
Register on November 15, 2012. See 77 FR 66388. The updated order
contains VOC limits for two new processes at the facility, a stainless
steel bluing line, and a camouflage image transfer and coating line.
The bluing line uses a rustproofing fluid with a low vapor pressure
referred to as ``Pen Dip Super.'' This fluid has a low vapor pressure
which is less than 1.0 millimeter (mm) of mercury, and New Hampshire
DES indicates within the updated Order that use of this low vapor
pressure fluid represents RACT for this process. Regarding this vapor
pressure limit, as a point of reference the Ozone Transport
Commission's model rule for solvent cleaning uses this threshold to
distinguish between acceptable (less than 1.0 mm mercury), and
unacceptable (1.0 mm mercury or higher) vapor pressures for cold
cleaning solvents.
The camouflage image transfer and coating process uses a solvent
based activator-release agent to prepare the camouflage image for
transfer to a gun. Use of the activator-release agent produces
approximately 0.05 lbs VOC per gun produced. This amount was
significantly lower than other coatings available for this process,
which ranged from 0.09 to 0.20 lbs VOC per gun produced, and therefore
New Hampshire DES determined that use of the activator-release agent
represented RACT for this process. EPA is approving this revised order
because it is consistent with CAA requirements for VOC RACT and with
New Hampshire's VOC RACT regulation.
6. VOC RACT for Textile Tapes Corporation
On November 16, 2012, New Hampshire DES submitted an amendment to a
previously issued VOC RACT order for the Textile Tapes Corporation in
Gonic, New Hampshire, as a SIP revision request. EPA had previously
approved VOC RACT order ARD-96-001 for this facility into the New
Hampshire SIP in a final rule published in the Federal Register on
November 5, 2012. See 77 FR 66388. The updated order contains VOC
destruction efficiency requirements, minimum operating temperature
requirements, and testing requirements for a new recuperative thermal
oxidizer that replaced an existing unit previously used at the
facility. EPA is approving this revised order because it is consistent
with CAA requirements for VOC RACT and with New Hampshire's VOC RACT
regulation.
Summary
We have reviewed New Hampshire's revised NOX RACT
regulation, the four single-source RACT orders the State requested be
approved into the SIP, and the NOX RACT order the State
requested be withdrawn from the SIP. We agree with the State's
rationale for determining that these actions are consistent with CAA
requirements and with New Hampshire's RACT regulations, and we are
therefore approving each of New Hampshire's requested SIP revisions.
In summary, today's action approves minor clarifications and/or
updates to New Hampshire's previously approved NOX RACT
regulations and to certain VOC and NOX RACT orders. New
Hampshire will need to address VOC and NOX RACT requirements
arising from the 2008 ozone NAAQS in a future SIP submittal to EPA. As
explained earlier in this notice, today's action approving Env-A 1300,
NOX RACT, into
[[Page 49461]]
the New Hampshire SIP also corrects an inadvertent error, which we are
correcting pursuant to CAA section 110(k)(6). As a final note, New
Hampshire's re-numbered NOX RACT rule is no less stringent
than its previously adopted rule, thus satisfying the anti-backsliding
requirements of section 110(l) of the CAA.
III. Final Action
EPA is approving and incorporating into the New Hampshire SIP Env-A
1300, NOX RACT, as well as source-specific VOC and
NOX RACT orders for the following four facilities: Concord
Litho Group; Gorham Paper and Tissue, LLC; Sturm, Ruger & Company,
Inc.; and Textile Tapes Corporation. We are also approving New
Hampshire's request to withdraw from the New Hampshire SIP a previously
approved NOX RACT order for Plymouth Cogeneration Limited
Partnership.
The EPA is publishing this action without prior proposal because
the Agency views this as a noncontroversial amendment and anticipates
no adverse comments. However, in the proposed rules section of this
Federal Register publication, EPA is publishing a separate document
that will serve as the proposal to approve the SIP revision should
relevant adverse comments be filed. This rule will be effective October
20, 2014 without further notice unless the Agency receives relevant
adverse comments by September 22, 2014.
If the EPA receives such comments, then EPA will publish a notice
withdrawing the final rule and informing the public that the rule will
not take effect. All public comments received will then be addressed in
a subsequent final rule based on the proposed rule. The EPA will not
institute a second comment period on the proposed rule. All parties
interested in commenting on the proposed rule should do so at this
time. If no such comments are received, the public is advised that this
rule will be effective on October 20, 2014 and no further action will
be taken on the proposed rule. Please note that if EPA receives adverse
comment on an amendment, paragraph, or section of this rule and if that
provision may be severed from the remainder of the rule, EPA may adopt
as final those provisions of the rule that are not the subject of an
adverse comment.
IV. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
Under the Clean Air 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 Clean Air 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 Clean Air Act; and
Does not provide EPA with the discretionary authority to
address, as appropriate, disproportionate human health or environmental
effects, using practicable and legally permissible methods, under
Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).
In addition, 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 Clean Air Act, petitions for
judicial review of this action must be filed in the United States Court
of Appeals for the appropriate circuit by October 20, 2014. 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. Parties with objections to this direct final
rule are encouraged to file a comment in response to the parallel
notice of proposed rulemaking for this action published in the proposed
rules section of today's Federal Register, rather than file an
immediate petition for judicial review of this direct final rule, so
that EPA can withdraw this direct final rule and address the comment in
the proposed rulemaking. This action may not be challenged later in
proceedings to enforce its requirements. (See section 307(b)(2).)
