Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 87 / Friday, May 7, 2021 / Rules and Regulations In summary, ICAPCD Rule 400.6 is a new local regulation that imposes NOX
emissions limits on new and replacement residential-type natural gas-fired water heaters; these sources were not previously subject to any NOX
emissions limit in the District. The rule prohibits any person in the District to manufacture, distribute, sell, or install applicable units that exceed the NOX
emission limits established by the rule.
This final approval will make the rule federally enforceable upon the effective date stated above.
III. EPA Action No comments were submitted that change our assessment of the rule as described in our proposed action.
Therefore, as authorized in section 110k3 of the Act, the EPA is fully approving this rule into the California SIP.
IV. Incorporation by Reference In this rule, the EPA is finalizing regulatory text that includes incorporation by reference. In accordance with requirements of 1 CFR
51.5, the EPA is finalizing the incorporation by reference of the ICAPCD rules described in the amendments to 40 CFR part 52 set forth below. The EPA has made, and will continue to make, these documents available through www.regulations.gov and at the EPA Region IX Office please contact the person identified in the FOR
FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section of this preamble for more information.
V. 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. 7410k;
40 CFR 52.02a. Thus, in reviewing SIP
submissions, the EPAs 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 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.;

59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994.
In addition, the SIP is not approved to apply on any Indian reservation land or in any other area where the 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.
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. Section 804, however, exempts from section 801 the following types of rules: Rules of particular applicability; rules relating to agency management or personnel; and rules of agency organization, procedure, or practice that do not substantially affect the rights or obligations of nonagency parties. 5 U.S.C. 8043. Because this is a rule of particular applicability, the EPA is not required to submit a rule report regarding this action under section 801.
