SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Throughout this document whenever we, us, or our is used, we mean EPA.
I. Background Information On March 9, 2021, EPA proposed to approve elements of a SIP submission from Ohio regarding the infrastructure requirements of CAA section 110 for the 2015 ozone NAAQS. The infrastructure requirements are designed to ensure that the structural components of each states air quality management program are adequate to meet the states responsibilities under the CAA. An explanation of the CAA requirements, a detailed analysis of the revisions, and
EPAR07OAR20210365; FRL8705
02Region 7. This action addresses the following CAA
elements:
110a2DiIprongs 1 and 2.
EPAs reasons for proposing approval were provided in the notice of proposed rulemaking and will not be restated here.
The public comment period for this proposed rule ended on April 9, 2021.
During the comment period, EPA
received 3 comments that covered a variety of topics including: Support of the proposed action and questions regarding how EPA ensures that states are complying with the approved SIP;
what other measures beyond the SIP
states must follow; how EPA determines if emissions from one state impact air quality in another state; and how EPA
informs the public of adverse air quality conditions. All of the comments received are included in the docket for this action.
We do not consider these comments to be germane or relevant to the specifics of this action and therefore not adverse to this action. The comments lack the required specificity to the proposed SIP revision and the relevant requirements of CAA section 110.
Moreover, none of the comments address a specific regulation or provision in question, or recommend a different action on the SIP submission from what EPA proposed. Therefore, we are finalizing our action as proposed.
II. Final Action EPA is approving most elements of a submission from Ohio certifying that its current SIP is sufficient to meet the infrastructure requirements in CAA
sections 110a1 and 2 with respect to the 2015 Ozone NAAQS. EPAs final actions for the states satisfaction of infrastructure SIP requirements, by element of section 110a2 are contained in the table below.
