Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 183 / Friday, September 24, 2021 / Proposed Rules text that includes incorporation by reference. In accordance with the requirements of 1 CFR 51.5, EPA is proposing to incorporate by reference 15A NCAC Subchapter 02D, Rule .0542Control of Particulate Emissions from Cotton Ginning Operations, with a state-effective date of November 1, 2020.
These changes are proposed to make minor clarifying and typographical edits to the rule. 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 aforementioned revisions to Rule .0542Control of Particulate Emissions from Cotton Ginning Operations. EPA is proposing to approve these changes because they are consistent with the CAA.
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. 7410k; 40 CFR 52.02a.
Thus, in reviewing SIP submissions, EPAs role is to approve state choices, provided they meet the criteria of the CAA. This proposed 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;
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. 1044;
Does not have Federalism implications as specified in Executive Order 13132 64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999;
