[EPA-R07-OAR-2007-0782; FRL-8506-8]
Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans; Missouri;
Clean Air Interstate Rule
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: EPA is taking final action to approve a revision to the
Missouri State Implementation Plan (SIP) submitted on May 18, 2007.
This revision addresses the requirements of EPA's Clean Air Interstate
Rule (CAIR) promulgated on May 12, 2005, and subsequently revised on
April 28, 2006, and December 13, 2006. EPA has determined that the SIP
revision fully implements the CAIR requirements for Missouri. As a
result of this action, EPA will also withdraw, through a separate
rulemaking, the CAIR Federal Implementation Plans (FIPs) concerning
SO2, NOX annual, and NOX ozone season
emissions for Missouri. The CAIR FIPs for all States in the CAIR region
were promulgated on April 28, 2006, and subsequently revised on
December 13, 2006.
CAIR requires States to reduce emissions of sulfur dioxide
(SO2) and nitrogen oxides (NOX) that
significantly contribute to, and interfere with maintenance of, the
national ambient air quality standards for fine particulates and/or
ozone in any downwind state. CAIR establishes State budgets for
SO2 and NOX and requires States to submit SIP
revisions that implement these budgets in States that EPA concluded did
contribute to nonattainment in downwind states. States have the
flexibility to choose which control measures to adopt to achieve the
budgets, including participating in the EPA-administered cap-and-trade
programs. In the SIP revision that EPA is approving today, Missouri has
met the CAIR requirements by electing to participate in the EPA-
administered cap-and-trade programs addressing SO2,
NOX annual, and NOX ozone season emissions.
DATES: This rule is effective on December 14, 2007.

I. What Action Is EPA Taking?
EPA is taking final action to approve a revision to Missouri's SIP
submitted on May 18, 2007. In its SIP revision, Missouri has met the
CAIR requirements by requiring certain electric generating units (EGUs)
to participate in the EPA-administered State CAIR cap-and-trade
programs addressing SO2, NOX annual, and NOX
ozone season emissions, as finalized in the Missouri Register on April
16, 2007, pages 646-661. Missouri's regulations adopt by reference most
of the provisions of EPA's SO2, NOX annual, and
NOX ozone season model trading rules, with certain changes
discussed below. EPA has determined that the SIP as revised will meet
the applicable requirements of CAIR. As a result of this action, the
Administrator of EPA will also issue a final rule to withdraw the FIPs
concerning SO2, NOX annual, and NOX
[[Page 71074]]
ozone season emissions for Missouri. The Administrator's action
will delete and reserve 40 CFR 52.1341 and 40 CFR 52.1342, relating to
the CAIR FIP obligations for Missouri. The withdrawal of the CAIR FIPs
for Missouri is a conforming amendment that must be made once the SIP
is approved because EPA's authority to issue the FIPs was premised on a
deficiency in the SIP for Missouri. Once a SIP is fully approved, EPA
no longer has authority for the FIPs. Thus, EPA does not have the
option of maintaining the FIPs following full SIP approval.
Accordingly, EPA does not intend to offer an opportunity for a public
hearing or an additional opportunity for written public comment on the
withdrawal of the FIPs.
EPA proposed to approve Missouri's request to amend the SIP on
September 17, 2007 (72 FR 52828). In that proposal, EPA also stated its
intent to withdraw the FIP, as described above. The comment period
closed on October 17, 2007. No comments were received. EPA is
finalizing the approval as proposed based on the rationale stated in
the proposal and in this final action.
II. What Is the Regulatory History of CAIR and the CAIR FIPs?
The CAIR was published by EPA on May 12, 2005 (70 FR 25162). In
this rule, EPA determined that 28 States and the District of Columbia
contribute significantly to nonattainment and interfere with
maintenance of the national ambient air quality standards (NAAQS) for
fine particles (PM2.5) and/or 8-hour ozone in downwind
States in the eastern part of the country. As a result, EPA required
those upwind States to revise their SIPs to include control measures
that reduce emissions of SO2, which is a precursor to
PM2.5 formation, and/or NOX, which is a precursor
to both ozone and PM2.5 formation. For jurisdictions that
contribute significantly to downwind PM2.5 nonattainment,
CAIR sets annual State-wide emission reduction requirements (i.e.,
budgets) for SO2 and annual State-wide emission reduction
requirements for NOX. Similarly, for jurisdictions that
contribute significantly to 8-hour ozone nonattainment, CAIR sets
State-wide emission reduction requirements for NOX for the
ozone season (May 1 to September 30). Under CAIR, States may implement
these reduction requirements by participating in the EPA-administered
cap-and-trade programs or by adopting any other control measures.
CAIR explains to subject States what must be included in SIPs to
address the requirements of section 110(a)(2)(D) of the Clean Air Act
(CAA) with regard to interstate transport with respect to the 8-hour
ozone and PM2.5 NAAQS. EPA made national findings, effective
on May 25, 2005, that the States had failed to submit SIPs meeting the
requirements of section 110(a)(2)(D). The SIPs were due in July 2000, 3
years after the promulgation of the 8-hour ozone and PM2.5
NAAQS.
Missouri submitted its SIP in response to EPA's section
110(a)(2)(D) finding, which EPA approved in a rule published May 8,
2007 (72 FR 25975). In that rule, EPA stated that Missouri had met its
obligation with regard to interstate transport by adoption of the CAIR
model rule. EPA also stated that it would review and act on Missouri's
CAIR rule in a separate rulemaking. This document takes final action on
Missouri's CAIR rule as explained below.
III. What Are the General Requirements of CAIR and the CAIR FIPs?
CAIR establishes State-wide emission budgets for SO2 and
NOX and is to be implemented in two phases. The first phase
of NOX reductions starts in 2009 and continues through 2014,
while the first phase of SO2 reductions starts in 2010 and
continues through 2014. The second phase of reductions for both
NOX and SO2 starts in 2015 and continues
thereafter. CAIR requires States to implement the budgets by either:
(1) Requiring EGUs to participate in the EPA-administered cap-and-trade
programs; or (2) adopting other control measures of the State's
choosing and demonstrating that such control measures will result in
compliance with the applicable State SO2 and NOX
budgets.
The May 12, 2005, and April 28, 2006, CAIR rules provide model
rules that States must adopt (with certain limited changes, if desired)
if they want to participate in the EPA-administered trading programs.
With two exceptions, only States that choose to meet the
requirements of CAIR through methods that exclusively regulate EGUs are
allowed to participate in the EPA-administered trading programs. One
exception is for States that adopt the opt-in provisions of the model
rules to allow non-EGUs individually to opt into the EPA-administered
trading programs. The other exception is for States that include all
non-EGUs from their NOX SIP Call trading programs in their
CAIR NOX ozone season trading programs.
IV. Analysis of Missouri's CAIR SIP Submittal
A. State Budgets for Allowance Allocations
In this action, EPA is taking final action to approve Missouri's
SIP revision that adopts the budgets established for the State in CAIR,
i.e., 59,871 (2009-2014) and 49,892 (2015-thereafter) tons for NOX
annual emissions, 26,678 (2009-2014) and 22,231 (2015-thereafter) tons
for NOX ozone season emissions, and 137,214 (2010-2014) and
96,050 (2015-thereafter) tons for SO2 emissions. Missouri's
SIP revision sets these budgets as the total amounts of allowances
available for allocation for each year under the EPA-administered cap-
and-trade programs.
B. CAIR Cap-and-Trade Programs
The CAIR NOX annual and ozone season model trading rules
both largely mirror the structure of the NOX SIP Call model
trading rule in 40 CFR part 96, subparts A through I. While the
provisions of the NOX annual and ozone season model rules
are similar, there are some differences. For example, the NOX
annual model rule (but not the NOX ozone season model rule)
provides for a compliance supplement pool (CSP), which is discussed
below and under which allowances may be awarded for early reductions of
NOX annual emissions. As a further example, the NOX
ozone season model rule reflects the fact that the CAIR NOX
ozone season trading program replaces the NOX SIP Call
trading program after the 2008 ozone season and is coordinated with the
NOX SIP Call program. The NOX ozone season model
rule provides incentives for early emissions reductions by allowing
banked, pre-2009 NOX SIP Call allowances to be used for
compliance in the CAIR NOX ozone season trading program. In
addition, States have the option of continuing to meet their NOX
SIP Call requirement by participating in the CAIR NOX ozone
season trading program and including all their NOX SIP Call
trading sources in that program.
The provisions of the CAIR SO2 model rule are also
similar to the provisions of the NOX annual and ozone season
model rules. However, the SO2 model rule is coordinated with
the ongoing Acid Rain SO2 cap-and-trade program under CAA
title IV. The SO2 model rule uses the title IV allowances
for compliance, with each allowance allocated for 2010-2014 authorizing
only 0.50 ton of emissions and each allowance allocated for 2015 and
thereafter authorizing only 0.35 ton of
[[Page 71075]]
emissions. Banked title IV allowances allocated for years before 2010
can be used at any time in the CAIR SO2 cap-and-trade
program, with each such allowance authorizing one ton of emissions.
Title IV allowances are to be freely transferable among sources covered
by the Acid Rain Program and sources covered by the CAIR SO2
cap-and-trade program.
EPA also used the CAIR model trading rules as the basis for the
trading programs in the CAIR FIPs. The CAIR FIP trading rules are
virtually identical to the CAIR model trading rules, with changes made
to account for Federal rather than State implementation. The CAIR model
SO2, NOX annual, and NOX ozone season
trading rules and the respective CAIR FIP trading rules are designed to
work together as integrated SO2, NOX annual, and
NOX ozone season trading programs.
In the SIP revision, Missouri has chosen to implement its CAIR
budgets by requiring EGUs to participate in EPA-administered cap-and-
trade programs for SO2, NOX annual, and NOX
ozone season emissions. Missouri has adopted a full SIP revision that
adopts, with certain allowed changes discussed below, the CAIR model
cap-and-trade rules for SO2, NOX annual, and
NOX ozone season emissions.
C. Applicability Provisions for Non-EGU NOX SIP Call Sources
In general, the CAIR model trading rules apply to any stationary,
fossil fuel-fired boiler or stationary, fossil fuel-fired combustion
turbine serving at any time, since the later of November 15, 1990, or
the start-up of the unit's combustion chamber, a generator with
nameplate capacity of more than 25 megawatts electric (MWe) producing
electricity for sale.
States have the option of bringing in, for the CAIR NOX
ozone season program only, those units in the State's NOX
SIP Call trading program that are not EGUs as defined under CAIR. Under
this option, the CAIR NOX ozone season program must cover
all large industrial boilers and combustion turbines, as well as any
small EGUs (i.e., units serving a generator with a nameplate capacity
of 25 MWe or less) that the State currently requires to be in the
NOX SIP Call trading program.
Missouri has chosen to expand the applicability provisions of the
CAIR NOX ozone season trading program to include all current
and future non-EGUs in the State's NOX SIP Call trading
program. The NOX SIP Call region of the State includes the
eastern one-third of the State of Missouri (70 FR 46860).
D. NOX Allowance Allocations
Under the NOX allowance allocation methodology in the
CAIR model trading rules and in the CAIR FIP, NOX annual and
ozone season allowances are allocated to units that have operated for
five years, based on heat input data from a three-year period that are
adjusted for fuel type by using fuel factors of 1.0 for coal, 0.6 for
oil, and 0.4 for other fuels. The CAIR model trading rules and the CAIR
FIP also provide a new unit set-aside from which units without five
years of operation are allocated allowances based on the units' prior
year emissions.
States may establish in their SIP submissions a different
NOX allowance allocation methodology that will be used to
allocate allowances to sources in the States if certain requirements
are met concerning the timing of submission of units' allocations to
the Administrator for recordation and the total amount of allowances
allocated for each control period. In adopting alternative
NOX allowance allocation methodologies, States have
flexibility with regard to: (1) The cost to recipients of the
allowances, which may be distributed for free or auctioned; (2) the
frequency of allocations; (3) the basis for allocating allowances,
which may be distributed, for example, based on historical heat input
or electric and thermal output; and (4) the use of allowance set-asides
and, if used, their size.
Missouri has chosen to replace the provisions of the CAIR
NOX annual model trading rule concerning the allocation of
NOX annual allowances with its own methodology. Missouri has
chosen to distribute NOX annual allowances to individual
facilities based upon the total of their individual unit's pro-rata
share of the total heat input for all affected units in the State. The
State has provided a table in rule 10 CSR 10-6.362 that provides for
permanent allocations to units in Phases I and II. Additionally, the
State's rule creates an energy efficiency renewable resource set-aside
of 300 allowances for each year of the program. The purpose for
establishing this set-aside is to serve as an incentive for saving or
generating electricity through the implementation of energy efficiency
and renewable generation projects. If the number of allowances awarded
each year are fewer than allowances allocated to the set-aside, the
State will transfer surplus allowances to the accounts of the electric
utilities on a pro-rata basis in the same proportion as allocations to
the units listed in the rule. Missouri's rule provides that, by May 31
of the year for which allowances are requested from the set-aside, the
State will complete the process of determining what projects are
eligible and how many allowances should be provided, and of awarding
the allowances to the projects. EPA interprets the rule to provide
that, by the May 31 deadline, the State will transfer to the
appropriate allowance tracking system accounts the allocations awarded
to the eligible projects, as well as the surplus allowances provided to
electric utilities.
As with the annual program described above, Missouri has chosen to
replace the provisions of the CAIR NOX ozone season model
trading rule concerning allowance allocations with its own methodology.
Missouri has chosen to distribute NOX ozone season
allowances to individual facilities based upon the total of their
individual unit's pro-rata share of the State's total heat input for
all affected units in the State. The State has provided a table in rule
10 CSR 10-6.364 that provides for permanent allocations to
NOX ozone season units in Phases I and II. As mentioned
above, Missouri has chosen to expand the applicability provisions of
the CAIR NOX ozone season trading program to include all
current and future non-EGUs in the State's NOX SIP Call
trading program. By doing so, the three non-EGUs listed in Table II of
Missouri's NOX SIP Call rule, 10 CSR 10-6.360, are provided
CAIR NOX ozone season allowances totaling 59 allowances in
Table II of 10 CSR 10-6.364 that are in addition to the State's initial
allocation for both Phase I and Phase II of the CAIR NOX
ozone season trading program. The number of allowances provided to the
non-EGUs in the CAIR NOX ozone trading program are
equivalent to the amount they received under Missouri's NOX
SIP Call rule.
E. Allocation of NOX Allowances From Compliance Supplement Pool
The CAIR establishes a compliance supplement pool (CSP) to provide
an incentive for early reductions in NOX annual emissions.
The CSP consists of 200,000 CAIR NOX annual allowances of
vintage 2009 for the entire CAIR region, and a State's share of the CSP
is based upon the projected magnitude of the emission reductions
required by CAIR in that State. States may distribute CSP allowances,
one allowance for each ton of early reduction, to sources that make
NOX reductions during 2007 or 2008 beyond what is required
by any applicable State or Federal emission limitation. States also may
distribute CSP allowances based upon a demonstration of need for an
extension
[[Page 71076]]
of the 2009 deadline for implementing emission controls.
The CAIR annual NOX model trading rule establishes
specific methodologies for allocations of CSP allowances. States may
choose an allowed, alternative CSP allocation methodology to be used to
allocate CSP allowances to sources in the States.
Missouri has chosen to distribute CSP allowances using an
allocation methodology that retains much of the CSP model rule language
of 40 CFR 96.143. The State's methodology differs in two main ways.
First, the State has added additional criteria for units subject to the
Acid Rain Program that do not have an applicable NOX
emission limit to be able to apply for allocations from the CSP by
limiting their emissions below what limit would have applied had the
unit been limited by Acid Rain Program or State NOX emission
rate limits. Secondly, the State has chosen to modify the distribution
methodology in the event the CSP is over-prescribed. If more requests
for allocations have been made than CSP allowances exist, the State
will divide the CSP into two pools. The smaller of the two pools is for
units that combust tires and the larger pool is for the remaining
units.
F. Individual Opt-in Units
The opt-in provisions of the CAIR SIP model trading rules allow
certain non-EGUs (i.e., boilers, combustion turbines, and other
stationary fossil-fuel-fired devices) that do not meet the
applicability criteria for a CAIR trading program to participate
voluntarily in (i.e., opt into) the CAIR trading program. A non-EGU may
opt into one or more of the CAIR trading programs. In order to qualify
to opt into a CAIR trading program, a unit must vent all emissions
through a stack and be able to meet monitoring, recordkeeping, and
recording requirements of 40 CFR part 75. The owners and operators
seeking to opt a unit into a CAIR trading program must apply for a CAIR
opt-in permit. If the unit is issued a CAIR opt-in permit, the unit
becomes a CAIR unit, is allocated allowances, and must meet the same
allowance-holding and emissions monitoring and reporting requirements
as other units subject to the CAIR trading program. The opt-in
provisions provide for two methodologies for allocating allowances for
opt-in units, one methodology that applies to opt-in units in general
and a second methodology that allocates allowances only to opt-in units
that the owners and operators intend to repower before January 1, 2015.
States have several options concerning the opt-in provisions.
States may adopt the CAIR opt-in provisions entirely or may adopt them
but exclude one of the methodologies for allocating allowances. States
may also decline to adopt the opt-in provisions at all.
Missouri has chosen to allow non-EGUs meeting certain requirements
to opt into the CAIR trading programs by adopting by reference the
entirety of EPA's model rule provisions for opt-in units in the CAIR
SO2, CAIR NOX annual, and CAIR NOX
ozone season trading programs.
V. Final Action
EPA is taking final action to approve Missouri's full CAIR SIP
revision submitted on May 18, 2007. Under this SIP revision, Missouri
is choosing to participate in the EPA-administered cap-and-trade
programs for SO2, NOX annual, and NOX
ozone season emissions. EPA has determined that the SIP revision meets
the applicable requirements in 40 CFR 51.123(o) and (aa), with regard
to NOX annual and NOX ozone season emissions, and
40 CFR 51.124(o), with regard to SO2 emissions. EPA has
determined that the SIP as revised will meet the requirements of CAIR.
The Administrator of EPA will also issue, without providing an
opportunity for a public hearing or an additional opportunity for
written public comment, a final rule to withdraw the CAIR FIPs
concerning SO2, NOX annual, and NOX
ozone season emissions for Missouri. The Administrator's action will
delete and reserve 40 CFR 52.1341 and 40 CFR 52.1342. EPA will take
final action to withdraw the CAIR FIPs for Missouri in a separate
rulemaking.
VI. When Is This Action Effective?
Under 5 U.S.C. 553(d), a rule generally cannot be effective less
than 30 days prior to publication of the rule. However, a rule can be
made effective less than 30 days prior to publication if the rule
``grants or recognizes an exemption, or relieves a restriction'' or
``as otherwise provided by the agency for good cause''. EPA finds that
there is good cause to make this approval effective on December 14,
2007. This CAIR SIP approval allows EPA to immediately record
allowances as distributed under the approved State rule and, thus,
allow sources to begin trading.
VII. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
Under Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993), this
action is not a ``significant regulatory action'' and therefore is not
subject to review by the Office of Management and Budget. For this
reason, this action is also not subject to Executive Order 13211,
``Actions Concerning Regulations That Significantly Affect Energy
Supply, Distribution, or Use'' (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001). This action
merely approves State law as meeting Federal requirements and would
impose no additional requirements beyond those imposed by State law.
Accordingly, the Administrator certifies that this rule will not have a
significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities
under the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601, et seq.). Because
this action approves pre-existing requirements under State law and does
not impose any additional enforceable duty beyond that required by
State law, it 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).
This rule also does not have tribal implications because it will
not have a substantial direct effect on one or more Indian tribes, on
the relationship between the Federal Government and Indian tribes, or
on the distribution of power and responsibilities between the Federal
Government and Indian tribes, as specified by Executive Order 13175 (65
FR 67249, November 9, 2000). This action also does not have Federalism
implications because it does not have substantial direct effects on the
States, on the relationship between the national government and the
States, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the
various levels of government, as specified in Executive Order 13132 (64
FR 43255, August 10, 1999). This action merely approves a State rule
implementing a Federal standard, and does not alter the relationship or
the distribution of power and responsibilities established in the CAA.
This rule also is not subject to Executive Order 13045 ``Protection of
Children from Environmental Health Risks and Safety Risks'' (62 FR
19885, April 23, 1997), because it approves a State rule implementing a
Federal standard.
In reviewing SIP submissions, EPA's role is to approve State
choices, provided that they meet the criteria of the CAA. In this
context, in the absence of a prior existing requirement for the State
to use voluntary consensus standards (VCS), EPA has no authority to
disapprove a SIP submission for failure to use VCS. It would thus be
inconsistent with applicable law for EPA, when it reviews a SIP
submission, to use VCS in place of a SIP submission that otherwise
satisfies the provisions of the CAA. Thus, the requirements of
[[Page 71077]]
section 12(d) of the National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act
of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272 note) do not apply. This rule does not impose an
information collection burden under the provisions of the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501, et seq.).
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
rule 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 CAA, petitions for judicial review
of this action must be filed in the United States Court of Appeals for
the appropriate circuit by February 12, 2008. Filing a petition for
reconsideration by the Administrator of this final rule does not affect
the finality of this rule 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.
This action may not be challenged later in proceedings to enforce its
requirements. (See section 307(b)(2).)
