IV. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

I. Background and Purpose

    On May 24, 2013 (78 FR 31459), EPA published a Notice of Proposed
Rulemaking (NPR) for the State of Connecticut. In that action, EPA
proposed approval of Connecticut's revisions to Section 22a-174-20
``Control of Organic Compound Emissions'' and Connecticut's newly
adopted Section 22a-174-40 ``Consumer Products'' and Section 22a-174-44
``Adhesives and Sealants.'' These regulations address RACT for the VOC
source categories covered by Control Technique Guidelines (CTGs) issued
by EPA in 2006, 2007, and 2008 \1\ and include requirements to reduce
VOC emissions from consumer products based on the 2006 Ozone Transport
Commission (OTC) model rule. EPA also proposed approval of the negative
declarations for the CTGs for which Connecticut determined no
applicable sources exist in the State of Connecticut.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ EPA's CTGs are posted at http://www.epa.gov/airquality/ozonepollution/SIPToolkit/ctgs.html.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

II. Connecticut's Reasonably Available Control Technology Updates

    On February 1, 2008, Connecticut submitted its consumer products
regulation to EPA as part of its 8-hour Ozone Attainment Demonstration
SIP revision. Then, on November 18, 2008, Connecticut submitted its
adhesives and sealants regulation as part of its Annual Fine
Particulate Matter (PM2.5) Attainment Demonstration SIP
revision. On April 29, 2010, Connecticut submitted a SIP revision that
addressed eight CTGs: Flexible package printing; industrial cleaning
solvents; large appliance coatings; metal furniture coatings;
miscellaneous industrial adhesives; offset lithographic printing and
letterpress printing; and paper, film and foil coatings. At that time,
Connecticut also submitted negative declarations for three CTGs:
Automobile and light-duty truck assembly coating; fiberglass boat
manufacturing; and flat wood paneling coating. On November 21, 2012,
Connecticut submitted a SIP revision that addressed the CTG for
miscellaneous metal and plastic parts coatings. Lastly, in letters
dated March 13, 2013 and April 3, 2013, Connecticut withdrew a number
of provisions from

the April 29, 2010 and February 1, 2008 SIP submittals, respectively.
    EPA has reviewed Connecticut's new and revised VOC regulations and
found that they are consistent with the relevant CTGs and OTC
recommendations. In addition, Connecticut's process for determining the
categories for which the state should make negative declarations was
reasonable. Therefore, EPA concludes that Connecticut has met the CAA
requirement to adopt RACT for all the 2006, 2007, and 2008 CTGs.

III. Final Action

    EPA is approving, and incorporating into the SIP, the following
changes to Connecticut's Section 22a-174-20 ``Control of organic
compound emissions'' as meeting RACT for the relevant CTG categories:
Revised subsection (p) Metal furniture coatings; revised subsection (q)
Paper, film, and foil coatings; revised subsection (s) Miscellaneous
metal and plastic parts coatings; new subsection (ff) Flexible package
printing; new subsection (gg) Offset lithographic printing and
letterpress printing; new subsection (hh) Large appliance coatings; new
subsection (ii) Industrial solvent cleaning; new subsection (jj) Spray
application equipment cleaning; and new subsection (kk) Pleasure craft
coatings.
    Additionally, EPA is approving, and incorporating into the SIP,
Connecticut's new Section 22a-174-40 ``Consumer Products,'' consistent
with the OTC's recommendations, and Connecticut's new Section 22a-174-
44 ``Adhesives and Sealants'' as meeting RACT.
    EPA is taking no action on the portions of sections 22a-174-
20(ff)(1)(K), (ff)(5)(B)(vi), (gg)(1)(O), (gg)(7)(B)(Vi), (hh)(1)(CC),
(hh)(7)(B)(vi), (ii)(1)(I), (ii)(6)(B)(vi), (jj)(1)(H), (jj)(3)(D), and
(jj)(6)(B)(vii) which Connecticut withdrew from its April 29, 2010 SIP
submittal. Likewise, EPA is taking no action on the portions of
Sections 22a-174-40(c)(4) through (7) and 22a-174-40(f)(2)(C) through
(D), which Connecticut withdrew from its February 1, 2008 SIP
submittal.
    EPA is also approving, and incorporating into the SIP, minor
revisions to the following subsections of Connecticut's Section 22a-
174-20: (f)(9); (l)(1) and (2); (aa)(1); (cc)(2) and (3); and
subsection (ee) Reasonably available control technology for large
sources. EPA is also approving Connecticut's request to withdraw
subsection (g) Architectural coatings of Section 22a-174-20 from the
SIP. Lastly, EPA is approving Connecticut's negative declarations for
three source categories: Flat wood paneling coating; fiberglass and
boat manufacturing; and automobile and light-duty truck assembly
coating. Connecticut has, therefore, met the CAA requirement to adopt
RACT for all of the 2006, 2007, and 2008 CTGs.

IV. 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. 7410(k); 40 CFR 52.02(a).
Thus, in reviewing SIP submissions, EPA's 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 Order
12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993);
     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. 104-4);
     does not have Federalism implications as specified in
Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999);
     is not an economically significant regulatory action based
on health or safety risks subject to Executive Order 13045 (62 FR
19885, April 23, 1997);
     is not a significant regulatory action subject to
Executive Order 13211 (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001);
     is not subject to requirements of Section 12(d) of the
National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272
note) because application of those requirements would be inconsistent
with the Clean Air Act; and
     does not provide EPA with the discretionary authority to
address, as appropriate, disproportionate human health or environmental
effects, using practicable and legally permissible methods, under
Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).
    In addition, this rule does not have tribal implications as
specified by Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000),
because the SIP is not approved to apply in Indian country located in
the state, and EPA notes that it will not impose substantial direct
costs on tribal governments or preempt tribal law.
    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 action 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 Clean Air Act, petitions for
judicial review of this action must be filed in the United States Court
of Appeals for the appropriate circuit by August 8, 2014. Filing a
petition for reconsideration by the Administrator of this final rule
does not affect the finality of this action 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).)

RE: FIFRA Scientific Advisory Panel White Paper: Examination of the Microcosm/Mesocosm Studies for Evaluating the Effects of Atrazine on Aquatic Plant Communities
EPA Docket: EPA-HQ-OPP-2023-0154

To whom it may concern:

Introduction

My name is Brian Breaux and I serve as the Commodity and Public Policy Managing Director for the Louisiana Farm Bureau Federation, Louisiana's largest agricultural organization with a membership of 145,000 members.

Let me begin by letting the Panel know that we support the EPA White Paper evaluation of the 11 mesocosm and microcosm studies.  Our comments are to highlight what is at stake for our farmers.

Corn, Sugarcane and Climate Smart Agricultural Practices

According to USDA-NASS, Louisiana has 580,000 acres of corn and 505,000 acres of sugarcane in 2023. Florida has 440,000 acres and Texas has 31,000 acres of sugarcane. The fact is that the majority of corn and sugarcane acres rely heavily on Atrazine to maintain sustainable, climate-smart agricultural practices on their farms such as implementation of no-till and reduced tillage practices that reduces soil erosion and fuel consumption and increases soil health and carbon sequestration.

Role of Atrazine in NRCS  -  Conservation Stewardship Program conservation plans

Atrazine plays in a key role conservation stewardship.  For example, many of our producers in recent years have enrolled in the USDA-NRCS Conservation Stewardship Program (CSP) where they submitted a CSP conservation plan for their farm that was approved by NRCS.

What is important to note is that once the NRCS approves your CSP conservation plan, you are under a 5-year NRCS contract to comply with your CSP conservation plan.

The concern is that most CSP conservation plans rely on the longer residual period of weed control provided by Atrazine to eliminate a cycle of tillage as part of their CSP conservation plan.

Therefore, any change in Atrazine availability or use rates could place farmers who are under 5 year CSP contracts in a position where they may be unable to comply with their CSP conservation plan causing them to violate the terms of their CSP contract.

Atrazine's Role in Conservation Tillage

Sustainability and conservation practices are hugely important for our farmers with some buyers who refuse to buy commodities that cannot prove sustainable production practices.  Therefore, we need Atrazine for implementing in conservation tillage where it allows farmers an opportunity to reduce and sometimes eliminate cultivation under No-Till and Strip-Till Production Systems that reduces tillage and soil erosion while improving soil health.

Role of Atrazine in Reduced Tillage and Weed Control in Sugarcane

In addition to corn, Atrazine is important for sugarcane. The U.S. is the 5[th] largest producer of sugarcane in the world and 75% of the world's sugar comes from sugarcane.  Sugarcane is Louisiana's highest value agronomic crop where we produce sugarcane in a subtropical climate where weed pressure is severe.  Sugarcane after freeze goes through dormancy from November to March.  The problem is that weeds in the spring emerge before the emergence of sugarcane creating a longer period of weed pressure.  This is where Atrazine's longer period of weed control helps our farmers get ahead of early season weeds.

Atrazine use patterns differ among sugarcane farmers, Florida commonly applies Atrazine for early post emergence control, others use Atrazine to provide pre-emergence control of broadleaf weeds such as morning glories at layby (last spring cultivation) in May, or following planting in August.

In the northern portion of the Louisiana sugarcane belt, Auxin herbicide use (2,4-D, Dicamba and Picloram) is restricted from April 1st to September 15th each year.  Therefore, it is common for Atrazine or Atrazine in combination with Mesotrione to be used in the restricted area.

The Importance of this Scientific Advisory Panel

The outcome of this Scientific Advisory Panel has a bearing on the future of corn, sugarcane and grain sorghum production in the US.  It is critical for sugarcane, which is a small acreage crop with very few weed management tools available.

We cannot stress enough, the EPA's 2022 ultra-low proposed Concentration Equivalent Level of Concern (CE-LOC) for Atrazine of 3.4 parts per billion (ppb) was not based nor is it supported by good quality scientific studies and proper analysis. Based on EPA's current modeling approach, a CE-LOC of 3.4 ppb would translate to use rates around 1.25 lbs./acre/ of Atrazine per year or less in most watersheds in LA. For sugarcane, with LSU Ag Center recommended application rates from 2-4 lbs./acre per application, a CE-LOC that low would move use rates so low that Atrazine would no longer be effective, and we would lose Atrazine as a primary weed control tool.

Therefore, we sincerely ask the members of the Panel to please focus on the good quality scientific studies which would lead to a more appropriate CE-LOC. We are confident that if sound science is used, an accurate and defensible CE-LOC will be determined.

Thank you for your time and your consideration of our remarks.

                        Sincerely,

(Wrightsville Beach) Bridge across the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway
(AIWW), mile 283.1, at Wrightsville Beach, NC and the Isabel S. Holmes
Bridge across the Northeast Cape Fear River, mile 1.0, at Wilmington,
NC, has requested a temporary deviation from the current operating
regulations set out in 33 CFR 117.821(a)(4) and 33 CFR 117.829(a),
respectively, to ensure the safety of the participants and spectators
associated with the 2016 PPD IRONMAN North Carolina

    Under this temporary deviation, the S.R. 74 (Wrightsville Beach)
Bridge will be maintained in the closed-to-navigation position from
6:30 a.m. to 11

a.m. on October 22, 2016, and the Isabel S. Holmes Bridge will be
maintained in the closed-to-navigation position from 9:30 a.m. to 6
p.m. on October 22, 2016. These bridges are both double bascule
drawbridges and have vertical clearances in the closed-to-navigation
position of 20 feet and 40 feet, respectively, above mean high water.
    The Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway is used by a variety of vessels
including, small commercial fishing vessels and recreational vessels.
The Northeast Cape Fear River is used by a variety of vessels
including, small commercial fishing vessels, recreational vessels, and
tug and barge traffic. The Coast Guard has carefully coordinated the
restrictions with waterway users in publishing this temporary
deviation.
    Vessels able to pass through these bridges in their closed
positions may do so at any time. These bridges will be able to open for
emergencies and there are no immediate alternative routes for vessels
to pass. The Coast Guard will also inform the users of the waterway
through our Local and Broadcast Notices to Mariners of the change in
operating schedules for these bridges so that vessel operators can
arrange their transits to minimize any impact caused by the temporary
deviation.
    In accordance with 33 CFR 117.35(e), these drawbridges must return
to their regular operating schedules immediately at the end of the
effective periods of this temporary deviation. This deviation from the
operating regulations is authorized under 33 CFR 117.35.

[Docket No. CP18-533-000]

Texas Eastern Transmission, LP; Notice of Application

    Take notice that on July 24, 2018, Texas Eastern Transmission, LP
(Texas Eastern), P.O. Box 1642, Houston, Texas 77251, filed in Docket
No. CP18-533-000 an application pursuant to section 7(b) of the Natural
Gas Act (NGA) and Part 157 of the Commission's Regulations, requesting
authorization to abandon approximately 30 miles of lateral Line 1-N and
related facilities, located in Harrison and Marion Counties, Texas
(Line 1-N Abandonment Project), all as more fully set forth in the
application which is on file with the Commission and open to public
inspection.
    The filing may also be viewed on the web at http://www.ferc.gov
using the ``eLibrary'' link. Enter the docket number excluding the last
three digits in the docket number field to access the document. For
assistance, please contact FERC Online Support at
[email protected] or toll free at<PHONE_NUMBER>, or TTY,

    Any questions concerning this application may be directed to Lisa
A. Connolly, Director, Rates & Certificates, Texas Eastern
Transmission, LP, P.O. Box 1642, Houston, Texas 77251-1642, or by
telephone<PHONE_NUMBER>, or fax<PHONE_NUMBER> or by email to
[email protected].
    Specifically, Texas Eastern proposes to (1) abandon in place and by
removal a total of approximately 30 miles of 12-inch, 10-inch, and 8-
inch diameter lateral pipeline; (ii) abandon by removal all of the
facilities at metering and regulating station 70191; and (iii) abandon
by removal other related appurtenances. Texas Eastern states that the
project will eliminate the need for future operating and maintenance
expenditures on facilities that are no longer needed to provide
transportation service and have not been used in over a year. Texas
Eastern further states that abandonment of these facilities will not

result in any impact on certificated capacity on its system or in a
reduction in firm service to existing customers of Texas Eastern.
    Pursuant to section 157.9 of the Commission's rules (18 CFR 157.9),
within 90 days of this Notice, the Commission staff will either:
complete its environmental assessment (EA) and place it into the
Commission's public record (eLibrary) for this proceeding or issue a
Notice of Schedule for Environmental Review. If a Notice of Schedule
for Environmental Review is issued, it will indicate, among other
milestones, the anticipated date for the Commission staff's issuance of
the final environmental impact statement (FEIS) or EA for this
proposal. The filing of the EA in the Commission's public record for
this proceeding or the issuance of a Notice of Schedule will serve to
notify federal and state agencies of the timing for the completion of
all necessary reviews, and the subsequent need to complete all federal
authorizations within 90 days of the date of issuance of the Commission
staff's FEIS or EA.
    There are two ways to become involved in the Commission's review of
this project. First, any person wishing to obtain legal status by
becoming a party to the proceedings for this project should, on or
before the comment date stated below, file with the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE, Washington, DC 20426, a
motion to intervene in accordance with the requirements of the
Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.214 or
385.211) and the Regulations under the NGA (18 CFR 157.10). A person
obtaining party status will be placed on the service list maintained by
the Secretary of the Commission and will receive copies of all
documents filed by the applicant and by all other parties. A party must
submit five copies of filings made with the Commission and must mail a
copy to the applicant and to every other party in the proceeding. Only
parties to the proceeding can ask for court review of Commission orders
in the proceeding.
    However, a person does not have to intervene in order to have
comments considered. The second way to participate is by filing with
the Secretary of the Commission, as soon as possible, an original and
two copies of comments in support of or in opposition to this project.
The Commission will consider these comments in determining the
appropriate action to be taken, but the filing of a comment alone will
not serve to make the filer a party to the proceeding. The Commission's
rules require that persons filing comments in opposition to the project
provide copies of their protests only to the party or parties directly
involved in the protest.
    Persons who wish to comment only on the environmental review of
this project should submit an original and two copies of their comments
to the Secretary of the Commission. Environmental commentors will be
placed on the Commission's environmental mailing list, will receive
copies of the environmental documents, and will be notified of meetings
associated with the Commission's environmental review process.
Environmental commentors will not be required to serve copies of filed
documents on all other parties. However, the non-party commentors will
not receive copies of all documents filed by other parties or issued by
the Commission (except for the mailing of environmental documents
issued by the Commission) and will not have the right to seek court
review of the Commission's final order.
    The Commission strongly encourages electronic filings of comments,
protests and interventions in lieu of paper using the ``eFiling'' link
at http://www.ferc.gov. Persons unable to file electronically should
submit original and five copies of the protest or intervention to the
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street NE, Washington,
DC 20426.
    Comment Date: 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on August 28, 2018.

RIN 2120-AA64

Airworthiness Directives; Gulfstream Aerospace LP (Type
Certificate Previously Held by Israel Aircraft Industries, Ltd.)
Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

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

SUMMARY: We propose to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for
certain Gulfstream Aerospace LP Model Gulfstream G150 airplanes. This
proposed AD was prompted by a report that the main entrance door (MED)
opened during flight, and by the determination that the ``CABIN DOOR
UNLOCK'' crew alerting system (CAS) message may extinguish before the
handle latch pin is fully engaged. This proposed AD would require
accomplishing an updated rigging procedure for the adjustment of the
MED microswitch. We are proposing this AD to address the unsafe
condition on these products.

DATES: We must receive comments on this NPRM by August 31, 2017.

ADDRESSES: You may send comments, using the procedures found in 14 CFR
11.43 and 11.45, by any of the following methods:

economic, environmental, and energy aspects of this proposed AD. We
will consider all comments received by the closing date and may amend
this proposed AD based on those comments.
    We will post all comments we receive, without change, to http://www.regulations.gov, including any personal information you provide. We
will also post a report summarizing each substantive verbal contact we
receive about this proposed AD.

Discussion

    The Civil Aviation Authority of Israel (CAAI), which is the
aviation authority for Israel, has issued Israeli Airworthiness
Directive ISR-I-52-2017-03-28, dated January 3, 2017 (referred to after
this as the Mandatory Continuing Airworthiness Information, or ``the
MCAI''), to correct an unsafe condition for certain Gulfstream
Aerospace LP Model Gulfstream G150 airplanes. The MCAI states:

    [The purpose of the Israeli AD is] to improve the Main Entrance
Door (MED) microswitch adjustment procedure so that the locking
indication will be extinguished when the door handle is locked.

    The required actions include accomplishing an updated rigging
procedure for the adjustment of the MED microswitch. The unsafe
condition is the in-flight opening of the MED, which could lead to
structural damage and loss of control of the airplane. You may examine
the MCAI in the AD docket on the Internet at http://www.regulations.gov
by searching for and locating Docket No. FAA-2017-0692.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    Gulfstream Aerospace LP has issued Gulfstream G150 Service Bulletin
150-52-188, dated January 15, 2016. The service information describes
an updated rigging procedure for the adjustment of the MED microswitch.
This service information is reasonably available because the interested
parties have access to it through their normal course of business or by
the means identified in the ADDRESSES section.

FAA's Determination and Requirements of This Proposed AD

    This product has been approved by the aviation authority of another
country, and is approved for operation in the United States. Pursuant
to our bilateral agreement with the State of Design Authority, we have
been notified of the unsafe condition described in the MCAI and service
information referenced above. We are proposing this AD because we
evaluated all pertinent information and determined an unsafe condition
exists and is likely to exist or develop on other products of the same
type design.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this proposed AD affects 65 airplanes of U.S.
registry.
    We estimate the following costs to comply with this proposed AD:

                                                 Estimated Costs

                                         hour = $510.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Authority for This Rulemaking

    Title 49 of the United States Code specifies the FAA's authority to
issue rules on aviation safety. Subtitle I, section 106, describes the
authority of the FAA Administrator. ``Subtitle VII: Aviation
Programs,'' describes in more detail the scope of the Agency's
authority.
    We are issuing this rulemaking under the authority described in
``Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart III, Section 44701: General
requirements.'' Under that section, Congress charges the FAA with
promoting safe flight of civil aircraft in air commerce by prescribing
regulations for practices, methods, and procedures the Administrator
finds necessary for safety in air commerce. This regulation is within
the scope of that authority because it addresses an unsafe condition
that is likely to exist or develop on products identified in this
rulemaking action.

Regulatory Findings

    We determined that this proposed AD would not have federalism
implications under Executive Order 13132. This proposed AD would not
have a substantial direct effect 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.

Interagency Project To Clean Up Open Dumps on Tribal Lands: Request for Proposals AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency ( EPA). ACTION: Notice of availability.

SUMMARY: The Tribal Solid Waste Interagency Workgroup ( Workgroup) is soliciting proposals for its fifth year of the Tribal Open Dump Cleanup Project ( Cleanup Project). Since FY99, the Workgroup has funded approximately $ 8.8 million in projects. In FY02, the Interagency Workgroup made approximately $ 2.2 million available to fully or partially fund 27 selected projects, for an average of approximately $ 80,000 a proposal. A similar amount of funding is being projected for FY03. Each of these projects will result in the closure or upgrade of one or more open dumps located on tribal lands. The Cleanup Project is part of a federal effort to help tribes comprehensively address their solid waste needs. The purpose of the Cleanup Project is to assist with closing or upgrading tribal high threat waste disposal sites and providing alternative disposal and integrated solid waste management. The Workgroup was established in April 1998 to coordinate federal assistance to tribes in bringing their waste disposal sites into compliance with the municipal solid waste landfill criteria ( 40 CFR part 258). Current Workgroup members include representatives from the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency ( EPA); the Bureau of Indian Affairs ( BIA); the Indian Health Service ( IHS); the Bureau of Land Management; the departments of Agriculture, Defense, and Housing and Urban Development. Criteria: Eligible recipients of assistance under The Cleanup Project include federally recognized tribes and intertribal consortiums. A full explanation of the submittal process, the qualifying requirements, and the criteria that will be used to evaluate proposals for this project may be found in the Request for Proposals package. DATES: For consideration, proposals must be received by close of business on January 31, 2003. Proposals postmarked on or before but not received by the closing date will not be considered. Please do not rely solely on overnight mail to meet the deadlines. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Copies of the Request for Proposals package may be downloaded from the Internet at < www. epa. gov/ tribalmsw> by clicking on `` Recent Additions.'' Copies may also be obtained by contacting EPA, IHS or BIA regional or area offices or one of the following Workgroup representatives: EPA   Charles Bearfighter Reddoor 703   308   8245, Christopher Dege, 703   308   2392, or Tonya Hawkins, 703   308   8278.

The official public docket is the collection of materials that is available for public viewing at the Public Information and Records Integrity Branch ( PIRIB), Rm. 119, Crystal Mall # 2, 1921 Jefferson Davis Hwy., Arlington, VA. This docket facility is open from 8: 30 a. m. to 4 p. m., Monday through Friday, excluding legalholidays. The docket telephone number is ( 703) 305   5805. 2. Electronic access. You may access this Federal Register document electronically through the EPA Internet under the `` Federal Register'' listings at http:// www. epa. gov/ fedrgstr/. An electronic version of the public docket is available through EPA's electronic public docket and comment system, EPA Dockets. You may use EPA Dockets at http:// www. epa. gov/ edocket/ to submit or view public comments, access the index listing of the contents of the official public docket, and to access those documents in the public docket that are available electronically. Once in the system, select `` search,'' then key in the appropriate docket ID number. Certain types of information will not be placed in the EPA Dockets. Information claimed as CBI and other information whose disclosure is restricted by statute, which is not included in the official public docket, will not be available for public viewing in EPA's electronic public docket. EPA's policy is that copyrighted material will not be placed in EPA's electronic public docket but will be available only in printed, paper form in the official public docket. To the extent feasible, publicly available docket materials will be made available in EPA's electronic public docket. When a document is selected from the index list in EPA Dockets, the system will identify whether the document is available for viewing in EPA's electronic public docket. Although not all docket materials may be available electronically, you may still access any of the publicly available docket materials through the docket facility identified in Unit I. B. 1. EPA intends to work towards providing electronic access to all of the publicly available docket materials through EPA's electronic public docket. For public comments, it is important to note that EPA's policy is that public comments, whether submitted electronically or in paper, will be made available for public viewing in EPA's electronic public docket as EPA receives them and without change, unless the comment contains copyrighted material, CBI, or other information whose disclosure is restricted by statute. When EPA identifies a comment containing copyrighted material, EPA will provide a reference to that material in the version of the comment that is placed in EPA's electronic public docket. The entire printed comment, including the copyrighted material, will be available in the public docket. Public comments submitted on computer disks that are mailed or delivered to the docket will be transferred to EPA's electronic public docket. Public comments that are mailed or delivered to the Docket will be scanned and placed in EPA's electronic public docket. Where practical, physical objects will be photographed, and the photograph will be placed in EPA's electronic public docket along with a brief description written by the docket staff.

C. How and To Whom Do I Submit Comments? You may submit comments electronically, by mail, or through hand delivery/ courier. To ensure proper receipt by EPA, identify the appropriate docket ID number in the subject line on the first page of your comment. Please ensure that your comments are submitted within the specified comment period. Comments received after the close of the comment period will be marked `` late.'' EPA is not required to consider these late comments. If you wish to submit CBI or information that is otherwise protected by statute, please follow the instructions in Unit I. D. Do not use EPA Dockets or e mail to submit CBI or information protected by statute. 1. Electronically. If you submit an electronic comment as prescribed in this unit, EPA recommends that you include your name, mailing address, and an email address or other contact information in the body of your comment. Also include this contact information on the outside of any disk or CD ROM you submit, and in any cover letter accompanying the disk or CD ROM. This ensures that you can be identified as the submitter of the comment and allows EPA to contact you in case EPA cannot read your comment due to technical difficulties or needs further information on the substance of your comment. EPA's policy is that EPA will not edit your comment, and any identifying or contact information provided in the body of a comment will be included as part of the comment that is placed in the official public docket, and made available in EPA's electronic public docket. If EPA cannot read your comment due to technical difficulties and cannot contact you for clarification, EPA may not be able to consider your comment. i. EPA Dockets. Your use of EPA's electronic public docket to submit comments to EPA electronically is EPA's preferred method for receiving comments. Go directly to EPA Dockets at http:// www. epa. gov/ edocket, and follow the online instructions for submitting comments. Once in the system, select `` search,'' and then key in docket ID number OPP   2002   0317. The system is an `` anonymous access'' system, which means EPA will not know your identity, e mail address, or other contact information unless you provide it in the body of your comment. ii. E mail. Comments may be sent by e mail to opp docket@ epa. gov, Attention: Docket ID Number OPP   2002   0317. In contrast to EPA's electronic public docket, EPA's e mail system is not an `` anonymous access'' system.

E mail addresses that are automatically captured by EPA's e mail system are included as part of the comment that is placed in the official public docket, and made available in EPA's electronic public docket. iii. Disk or CD ROM. You may submit comments on a disk or CD ROM that you mail to the mailing address identified in Unit I. C. 2.

Do not submit information that you consider to be CBI electronically through EPA's electronic public docket or by e mail. You may claim information that you submit to EPA as CBI by marking any part or all of that information as CBI ( if you submit CBI on disk or CD ROM, 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 CBI). Information so marked will not be disclosed except in accordance with procedures set forth in 40 CFR part 2. In addition to one complete version of the comment that includes any 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 and EPA's electronic public docket. If you submit the copy that does not contain CBI on disk or CD ROM, mark the outside of the disk or CD ROM clearly that it does not contain CBI.

520-4534 (phone) or<PHONE_NUMBER> (fax), or<EMAIL_ADDRESS>    There are two ways to become involved in the Commission's review of
this project. First, any person wishing to obtain legal status by
becoming a party to the proceedings for this project should, on or
before the comment date stated below, file with the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC 20426, a
motion to intervene in accordance with the requirements of the
Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.214 or
385.211) and the Regulations under the NGA (18 CFR 157.10). A person
obtaining party status will be placed on the service list maintained by
the Secretary of the Commission and will receive copies of all
documents filed by the applicant and by all other parties. A party must
submit seven copies of filings made with the Commission and must mail a
copy to the applicant and to every other party in the proceeding. Only
parties to the proceeding can ask for court review of Commission orders
in the proceeding.
    However, a person does not have to intervene in order to have
comments considered. The second way to participate is by filing with
the Secretary of the Commission, as soon as possible, an original and
two copies of comments in support of or in opposition to this project.
The Commission will consider these comments in determining the
appropriate action to be taken, but the filing of a comment alone will
not serve to make the filer a party to the proceeding. The Commission's
rules require that persons filing comments in opposition to the project
provide copies of their protests only to the party or parties directly
involved in the protest.
    The Commission encourages electronic submission of protests and
interventions in lieu of paper using the ``eFiling'' link at http://www.ferc.gov. Persons unable to file electronically should submit an
original and seven copies of the protest or intervention to the Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC
20426. There is an ``eSubscription'' link on the Web site that enables
subscribers to receive e-mail notification when a document is added to
a subscribed docket(s).
    Comment Date: 5 p.m. Eastern Time on May 27, 2011.

    Dated: May 6, 2011.
Kimberly D. Bose,
Secretary.
