Community Right-to-Know; Adoption of 2012 North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) Codes for Toxics Release Inventory (TRI) Reporting

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to update the list of North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) codes subject to reporting under the Toxics Release Inventory (TRI) to reflect the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) 2012 NAICS revision. Facilities would be required to use 2012 NAICS codes when reporting to TRI beginning with TRI reporting forms that are due on July 1, 2014, covering releases and other waste management quantities for the 2013 calendar year. In the ``Rules and Regulations'' section of today's Federal Register, we are simultaneously publishing the 2012 OMB NAICS revisions for TRI Reporting as a direct final rule without a prior proposed rule. If we receive no adverse comment, we will not take further action on this proposed rule. We will withdraw this proposed rule, and the direct final rule will become effective as specified in that rule. If, however, we do receive adverse comment in response to this proposed rule or in response to the direct final rule, then we will publish a timely withdrawal in the Federal Register informing the public that the direct final rule will not take effect. In that case, we would address all public comments in a subsequent final rule based on this proposed rule. We will not institute a second comment period on this action. Any parties interested in

Page 42911

commenting must do so at this time. For further information about commenting on this rule, see the ADDRESSES section of this document.

DATES: Comments must be received on or before August 19, 2013.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

  1. Why is EPA issuing this proposed rule?

    This document proposes to take action to update the list of North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) codes subject to reporting under the Toxics Release Inventory (TRI) to reflect the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) final 2012 NAICS revision (75 FR 26856 and 76 FR 51240). We have published a direct final rule to adopt the OMB 2012 NAICS codes for TRI reporting purposes in the ``Rules and Regulations'' section of this Federal Register because we view this as a noncontroversial action and anticipate no adverse comment. We have explained our reasons for this action in the preamble to the direct final rule.

    If we receive no adverse comment, we will not take further action on this proposed rule. The proposed rule will be withdrawn, and the direct final rule will become effective as specified in that rule. If, however, we receive adverse comment, we will withdraw the direct final rule and it will not take effect. In that case, we would address all public comments in any subsequent final rule based on this proposed rule.

    We do not intend to institute a second comment period on this action. Any parties interested in commenting must do so at this time. For further information, please see the information provided in the ADDRESSES section of this document.

  2. Does this action apply to me?

    Entities that may be affected by this action are those facilities that have 10 or more full-time employees or the equivalent 20,000 hours per year that manufacture, process, or otherwise use toxic chemicals listed on the TRI, and that are required under section 313 of the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act (EPCRA) or section 6607 of the Pollution Prevention Act (PPA) to report annually to EPA and States or Tribes their environmental releases or other waste management quantities of covered chemicals. (A rule was published on April 19, 2012 (77 FR 23409), requiring facilities located in Indian country to report to the appropriate tribal government official and EPA instead of to the state and EPA.) Under Executive Order 13423 (January 24, 2007), published in the Federal Register on January 26, 2007 (72 FR 3919), all federal facilities are required to comply with the provisions set forth in Section 313 of EPCRA and section 6607 of the PPA. On March 29, 2007, the White House Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ) issued Instructions for Implementing Executive Order 13423, including annual reporting to the TRI program. Notice of availability of those implementing instructions was published in the Federal Register on June 18, 2007 (72 FR 33504).

    To determine whether your facility is affected by this action, you should carefully examine the applicability criteria in Part 372 of Title 40 of the Code of Federal Regulations. If you have any questions regarding the applicability of this action to a particular entity, consult the person listed in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section.

  3. What should I consider as I prepare my comments for EPA?

    1. Submitting CBI

      If you wish to claim information submitted in a comment to be CBI, it will be handled in accordance with procedures set forth in 40 CFR part 2,

      Page 42912

      subpart B. If you do not assert a confidentiality claim at the time of submission, the information may be made available to the public by EPA without further notice. See 40 CFR 2.203, 41 FR 36902, September 1, 1976. Do not submit this information to EPA through www.regulations.gov or email. Clearly mark the specific information that you claim to be CBI. For CBI information in a disk or CD ROM that you mail to EPA, mark the outside of the disk or CD ROM as CBI and then identify electronically within the disk or CD ROM the specific information that is claimed as CBI. In addition to one complete version of the comment that includes information claimed as CBI, a copy of the comment that does not contain the information claimed as CBI must be submitted for inclusion in the public docket. Information so marked will not be disclosed except in accordance with procedures set forth in 40 CFR Part 2.

    2. Tips for Preparing Your Comments

      When submitting comments, remember to:

      Identify the rulemaking by docket number and other identifying information (subject heading, Federal Register date and page number).

      Follow directions--The Agency may ask you to respond to specific questions or organize comments by referencing a Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) part or section number.

      Explain why you agree or disagree; suggest alternatives and substitute language for your requested changes.

      Describe any assumptions and provide any technical information and/or data that you used.

      If you estimate potential costs or burdens, explain how you arrived at your estimate in sufficient detail to allow for it to be reproduced.

      Provide specific examples to illustrate your concerns, and suggest alternatives.

      Explain your views as clearly as possible, avoiding the use of profanity or personal threats.

      Make sure to submit your comments by the comment period deadline identified.

  4. What is EPA's statutory authority for taking this action?

    EPA is taking this action under sections 313(g)(1) and 328 of EPCRA, 42 U.S.C. 11023(g)(1) and 11048. EPCRA is also referred to as Title III of the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act of 1986 (SARA) (Pub. L. 99-499). In general, section 313 of EPCRA requires owners and operators of covered facilities in specified Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) codes that manufacture, process, or otherwise use a listed toxic chemical in amounts above specified threshold levels to report certain facility specific information about such chemicals, including the annual releases and other waste management quantities. Section 313(g)(1) of EPCRA requires EPA to publish a uniform toxic chemical release form for these reporting purposes, and it also prescribes, in general terms, the types of information that must be submitted on the form. Section 313(g)(1)(A) requires owners and operators of facilities that are subject to section 313 requirements to report the principal business activities at the facilities. Congress also granted EPA broad rulemaking authority to allow the Agency to fully implement the statute. EPCRA section 328 states that: ``The Administrator may prescribe such regulations as may be necessary to carry out this chapter.'' 42 U.S.C. 11048.

    Consistent with these authorities, on June 6, 2006, EPA amended 40 CFR Part 372 to include the 2002 NAICS codes that correspond to the SIC codes that are currently subject to section 313 of EPCRA and section 6607 of the PPA (71 FR 32464). On June 9, 2008 (73 FR 32466), EPA amended 40 CFR Part 372 to include the 2007 NAICS codes that correspond to the SIC codes that are currently subject to section 313 of EPCRA and section 6607 of the PPA. This proposed action would amend 40 CFR Part 372 to include OMB's revised NAICS codes for 2012.

    Owners and operators of facilities that are subject to section 313 would need to use 2012 NAICS codes when identifying their principal business activities beginning with TRI reporting forms that are due on July 1, 2014, covering releases and other waste management quantities at the facility for the 2013 calendar year.

  5. Background Information

    What is the general background for this action?

    EPA promulgated a final TRI NAICS rule on June 6, 2006, to amend its regulations for TRI, found at 40 CFR Part 372, to include NAICS codes in addition to SIC codes. The list of TRI NAICS codes that appeared in the final rule was developed from the OMB 2002 NAICS revision. EPA updated the list of TRI NAICS codes in 2008 (73 FR 32466), to incorporate changes to the TRI NAICS codes resulting from the OMB 2007 NAICS revision.

    The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) revises North American Industry Classification Codes every five years. An OMB Federal Register notice published on May 12, 2010 (75 FR 26856), announced updated NAICS codes for 2012, and a second OMB Federal Register notice published on Aug. 17, 2011 (76 FR 51240), finalized and further modified the NAICS codes for 2012.

  6. Proposed Action

    1. What is the agency proposing?

      EPA would amend 40 CFR Part 372 to include 2012 NAICS codes for TRI reporting that accurately reflect the universe of covered facilities under section 313 of EPCRA and section 6607 of the PPA.

    2. Would the proposal change the universe of facilities that are currently required to report to EPA and the States?

      Today's proposal of updating the list of NAICS codes to reflect the 2012 OMB NAICS revision would not change the universe of facilities that are currently required to report to EPA and the States.

    3. How would Section 313 reporting requirements change as a result of this proposed rule?

      TRI reporting requirements would not change as a result of this proposed rule. This proposed rule would simply revise the NAICS codes to reflect the OMB NAICS 2012 revision.

  7. Which TRI-covered NAICS codes have been modified under this proposed rule?

    The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) revises North American Industry Classification Codes every five years. An OMB Federal Register notice published on May 12, 2010 (75 FR 26856), announced updated NAICS codes for 2012, and a second OMB Federal Register notice published on August 17, 2011 (76 FR 51240), finalized and further modified the NAICS codes for 2012. All facilities that are currently required to report to TRI would still be required to report, and facilities that are not currently required to file TRI reports to the Agency would not be required to do so. However, due to the 2012 NAICS modifications, some facilities would need to modify their NAICS codes as outlined in the table below. This table reflects only the revised TRI NAICS reporting codes. A complete table of all TRI NAICS reporting codes can be found in the regulations at Sec. 372.23.

  8. What additional reporting burden is associated with this action?

    This proposed rule would add no new reporting requirements, and there would be no net increase in respondent burden. Facilities were first required to use NAICS codes when reporting their toxic chemical releases and other waste management activities to EPA beginning in 2007 for reporting year 2006. Covered facilities should refer to the updated NAICS code list in 40 CFR 372.23 when reporting. Crosswalk tables between 2007 NAICS codes and 2012 NAICS codes can be found on the Internet at http://www.census.gov/epcd/www/naics.html.

  9. Regulatory Assessment Requirements

    1. Executive Order 12866: Regulatory Planning and Review and Executive Order 13563: Improving Regulation and Regulatory Review

      This action is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under the terms of Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993) and is therefore not subject to review under Executive Orders 12866 and 13563 (76 FR 3821, January 21, 2011).

      EPA analyzed the potential costs and benefits associated with this action, and determined that since this rule adds no new reporting requirements, there will be no net increase in respondent burden or other economic impacts.

    2. Paperwork Reduction Act

      This action does not impose any new information collection burden. Facilities that are affected by the rule are already required to report their industrial classification codes on the approved reporting forms under section 313 of EPCRA and 6607 of the PPA.

      However, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has previously approved the information collection requirements contained in 40 CFR part 372 under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act, 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq., and has assigned OMB control number 2025-0009 (EPA ICR No. 1363-21) for Form R and Form A. A copy of the OMB approved Information Collection Requests (ICRs) may be obtained from Susan Auby, Collection Strategies Division; U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (2822T); 1200 Pennsylvania Ave. NW., Washington, DC 20460 or by calling (202) 566-1672. The OMB control numbers for EPA's regulations in 40 CFR are listed in 40 CFR part 9.

    3. The Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA), as Amended by the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996 (SBREFA), 5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.

      The RFA generally requires an agency to prepare a regulatory flexibility analysis of any rule subject to notice and comment rulemaking requirements under the Administrative Procedure Act or any other statute unless the agency certifies that the rule will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. Small entities include small businesses, small organizations, and small governmental jurisdictions.

      For purposes of assessing the impacts of this rule on small entities, section 601 of the RFA, 5 U.S.C. 601, defines ``small entity'' as: (1) A business that is classified as a ``small business'' by the Small Business Administration at 13 CFR 121.201; (2) a small governmental jurisdiction that is a government of a city, county, town, school district or special district with a population of less than 50,000; or (3) a small organization that is any not-for-profit enterprise which is independently owned and operated and is not dominant in its field.

      This rule adds no new reporting requirements, and there will be no net increase in respondent burden. This

      Page 42917

      rule only proposes to update the NAICS codes already reported by respondents. After considering the economic impacts of today's proposed rule on small entities, I certify that this action will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. This proposed rule will not impose any requirements on small entities.

      We continue to be interested in the potential impacts of the proposed rule on small entities and welcome comments on issues related to such impacts.

    4. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act

      This rule does not contain a Federal mandate that may result in expenditures of $100 million or more to State, local, and tribal governments, in the aggregate, or to the private sector in any one year. This rule adds no new reporting requirements and there will be no net increase in respondent burden. Thus, this rule is not subject to the requirements of sections 202 or 205 of UMRA.

      This rule is also not subject to the requirements of section 203 of UMRA because it contains no regulatory requirements that might significantly or uniquely affect small governments. This EPA action contains no new reporting requirements.

    5. Executive Order 13132, Federalism

      This action does not have federalism implications. It will 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. This action only proposes to update the NAICS reporting codes used by TRI reporting facilities on chemical reporting forms. Thus, Executive Order 13132 does not apply to this rule.

      In the spirit of Executive Order 13132, and consistent with EPA policy to promote communications between EPA and State and local governments, EPA specifically solicits comment on this proposed action from State and local officials.

    6. Executive Order 13175

      This action does not have tribal implications, as specified in Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249), November 9, 2000, because this action only proposes to update the NAICS reporting codes for TRI reporting purposes. Thus, Executive Order 13175 does not apply to this rule.

    7. Executive Order 13045, Protection of Children From Environmental Health Risks and Safety Risks

      EPA interprets EO 13045 (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997), as applying only to those regulatory actions that concern health or safety risks, such that the analysis required under section 5-501 of the EO has the potential to influence the regulation. This action is not subject to EO 13045 because it does not establish an environmental standard intended to mitigate health or safety risks.

    8. Executive Order 13211, Actions Concerning Regulations That Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use

      This action is not subject to Executive Order 13211 (66 FR 28355 (May 22, 2001)), because it is not a significant regulatory action under Executive Order 12866.

  10. National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act

    Section 12(d) of the National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (``NTTAA''), Public Law 104-113, 12(d) (15 U.S.C. 272 note) directs EPA to use voluntary consensus standards in its regulatory activities unless to do so would be inconsistent with applicable law or otherwise impractical. Voluntary consensus standards are technical standards (e.g., materials specifications, test methods, sampling procedures, and business practices) that are developed or adopted by voluntary consensus standards bodies. The NTTAA directs EPA to provide Congress, through OMB, explanations when the Agency decides not to use available and applicable voluntary consensus standards.

    This action does not involve technical standards. Therefore, EPA did not consider the use of any voluntary consensus standards.

    1. Executive Order 12898: Federal Actions to Address Environmental Justice in Minority Populations and Low-Income Populations.

    Executive Order (EO) 12898 (59 FR 7629 (Feb. 16, 1994)) establishes federal executive policy on environmental justice. Its main provision directs federal agencies, to the greatest extent practicable and permitted by law, to make environmental justice part of their mission by identifying and addressing, as appropriate, disproportionately high and adverse human health or environmental effects of their programs, policies, and activities on minority populations and low-income populations in the United States.

    EPA has determined that this proposed rule will not have disproportionately high and adverse human health or environmental effects on minority or low-income populations because the rule addresses information collection and does not affect the level of protection provided to human health or the environment. This rule simply proposes to update the NAICS reporting codes for TRI reporting purposes.
