ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

Proposed Consent Decree, Clean Air Act Citizen Suit

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice of proposed consent decree; request for public comment.

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

SUMMARY: In accordance with section 113(g) of the Clean Air Act, as
amended (``CAA'' or the ``Act''), notice is hereby given of a proposed
consent decree to address a lawsuit filed by Sandra L. Bahr and David
Matusow in the United States District Court for the District of
Arizona: Bahr, et al. v. McCarthy, No. 2:13-cv-00872 SMM (D. AZ). On
April 30, 2013, Plaintiffs filed a complaint alleging that EPA failed
to perform a mandatory duty under CAA section 110(c)(1) to promulgate a
federal implementation plan for the State of Arizona that arose as a
result of EPA's February 14, 2011, finding of failure to submit a
revision to the state implementation plan required under CAA section
189(d), by the required deadline. The proposed consent decree
establishes deadlines for EPA to take action.

DATES: Written comments on the proposed consent decree must be received
by September 27, 2013.

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, identified by Docket ID number EPA-HQ-
OGC-2013-0609, online at www.regulations.gov (EPA's preferred method);
by email to<EMAIL_ADDRESS>by mail to EPA Docket Center,
Environmental Protection Agency, Mailcode: 2822T, 1200 Pennsylvania

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Additional Information About the Proposed Consent Decree

    The proposed consent decree would resolve a lawsuit filed by Sandra
L. Bahr and David Matusow (``Plaintiffs'') seeking to compel the
Administrator to take actions under CAA section 110(c)(1) to promulgate
a federal implementation plan (``FIP'') for the State of Arizona. A
portion of Arizona, including Maricopa County and a part of Pinal
County, is designated nonattainment for the National Ambient Air
Quality Standard (``NAAQS'') for particulate matter ten microns in
diameter or less (``PM10''). This area is classified as a
``serious'' PM10 nonattainment area. Because the area had
not attained the NAAQS by the applicable statutory attainment date,
Arizona was required to submit a revision to its state implementation
plan (``SIP'') to meet the requirements of CAA section 189(d). On
February 14, 2011, EPA found that Arizona failed to make the SIP
submission required under CAA section 189(d) by the required deadline.
This finding of failure to submit started a 2-year clock under CAA
section 110(c)(1) for EPA to promulgate a FIP to meet the obligations
of CAA section 189(d). EPA did not promulgate the required FIP by the
statutory deadline and this is the basis for the Plaintiffs' mandatory
duty lawsuit at issue in the proposed consent decree.
    The proposed consent decree provides that no later than January 14,
2014, a notice or notices of the Agency's proposed action or actions to
either approve a SIP, promulgate a FIP, or approve a SIP in part with
the promulgation of a partial FIP to address the requirements of CAA
section 189(d). The proposed consent decree also provides that no later
than June 2, 2014, a notice or notices of the Agency's final action or
actions to either approve a SIP, promulgate a FIP, or approve a SIP in
part with the promulgation of a partial FIP to address the requirements
of CAA section 189(d). The proposed consent decree requires that no
later than 15 business days following signature of each notice, EPA
shall send the notice or notices to the Office of the Federal Register
for review and publication in the Federal Register. After EPA fulfills
its obligations under the proposed consent decree, the consent decree
shall be terminated and the case dismissed with prejudice.
    For a period of thirty (30) days following the date of publication
of this notice, the Agency will accept written comments relating to the
proposed consent decree from persons who are not named as parties or
intervenors to the litigation in question. EPA or the Department of
Justice may withdraw or withhold consent to the proposed consent decree
if the comments disclose facts or considerations that indicate that
such consent is inappropriate, improper, inadequate, or inconsistent
with the requirements of the Act. Unless EPA or the Department of
Justice determines that consent to this consent decree should be
withdrawn, the decree will be affirmed.

II. Additional Information About Commenting on the Proposed Consent
Decree

A. How can I get a copy of the consent decree?

    The official public docket for this action (identified by Docket ID
No. EPA-HQ-OGC-2013-0609) contains a copy of the proposed consent
decree. The official public docket is available for public viewing at
the Office of Environmental Information (OEI) Docket in the EPA Docket
Center, EPA West, Room 3334, 1301 Constitution Ave. NW., Washington,
DC. The EPA Docket Center Public Reading Room is open from 8:30 a.m. to
4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday, excluding legal holidays. The
telephone number for the Public Reading Room is<PHONE_NUMBER>, and the
telephone number for the OEI Docket is<PHONE_NUMBER>.
    An electronic version of the public docket is available through
www.regulations.gov. You may use www.regulations.gov 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, key in
the appropriate docket identification number then select ``search''.
    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 online at www.regulations.gov without change, unless
the comment contains copyrighted material, CBI, or other information
whose disclosure is restricted by statute. Information claimed as CBI
and other information whose disclosure is restricted by statute is not
included in the official public docket or in the electronic public
docket. EPA's policy is that copyrighted material, including
copyrighted material contained in a public comment, will not be placed
in EPA's electronic public

docket but will be available only in printed, paper form in the
official public docket. Although not all docket materials may be
available electronically, you may still access any of the publicly
available docket materials through the EPA Docket Center.

B. How and to whom do I submit comments?

    You may submit comments as provided in the ADDRESSES section.
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 submit an electronic comment, EPA recommends that you
include your name, mailing address, and an email address or other
contact information in the body of your comment and with any disk or CD
ROM you submit. 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. 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.
    Use of the www.regulations.gov Web site to submit comments to EPA
electronically is EPA's preferred method for receiving comments. The
electronic public docket system is an ``anonymous access'' system,
which means EPA will not know your identity, email address, or other
contact information unless you provide it in the body of your comment.
In contrast to EPA's electronic public docket, EPA's electronic mail
(email) system is not an ``anonymous access'' system. If you send an
email comment directly to the Docket without going through
www.regulations.gov, your email address is automatically captured and
included as part of the comment that is placed in the official public
docket, and made available in EPA's electronic public docket.

Designation of a Longer Period for Commission Action on a Proposed Rule
Change, as Modified by Amendment No. 1, To Make Permanent Certain
Options Market Rules That Are Linked to the Equity Market Plan To
Address Extraordinary Market Volatility

October 11, 2019.
    On August 21, 2019, Cboe Exchange, Inc. (``Exchange'') filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission (``Commission''), pursuant to
Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (``Act'') \1\
and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\2\ a proposed rule change to make permanent
certain options market rules that are linked to the equity

market Plan to Address Extraordinary Market Volatility. The proposed
rule change was published for comment in the Federal Register on August
29, 2019.\3\ On October 10, 2019, the Exchange filed Amendment No. 1 to
the proposed rule change.\4\ The Commission has received no comment
letters on the proposed rule change.

    \3\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 86744 (August 23,
2019), 84 FR 45565.
    \4\ In Amendment No. 1, the Exchange revised the proposed rule
text to reflect rule numbering and organizational changes enacted by
separate proposed rule changes that became effective while the
instant proposal was pending before the Commission.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Section 19(b)(2) of the Act \5\ provides that, within 45 days of
the publication of notice of the filing of a proposed rule change, or
within such longer period up to 90 days as the Commission may designate
if it finds such longer period to be appropriate and publishes its
reasons for so finding, or as to which the self-regulatory organization
consents, the Commission shall either approve the proposed rule change,
disapprove the proposed rule change, or institute proceedings to
determine whether the proposed rule change should be disapproved. The
45th day after publication of the notice for this proposed rule change
is October 13, 2019.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(2).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Commission is extending the 45-day time period for Commission
action on the proposed rule change. The Commission finds that it is
appropriate to designate a longer period within which to take action on
the proposed rule change so that it has sufficient time to consider the
proposed rule change, as modified by Amendment No. 1. Accordingly,
pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the Act,\6\ the Commission designates
October 18, 2019, as the date by which the Commission shall either
approve or disapprove, or institute proceedings to determine whether to
disapprove, the proposed rule change (File No. SR-CBOE-2019-049), as
modified by Amendment No. 1.

FMCSA is now proceeding with the 10-year training and testing. The
required 10-year refresher training will be delivered by private sector
training organizations in the same manner as the initial National
Registry medical examiner training. The 10-year recertification test
will be provided by the two FMCSA-approved testing organizations in the
same manner as the initial National Registry medical examiner
certification test. Medical examiners will be able to upload proof of
completion of the 10-year training to their National Registry accounts
and be eligible to take the 10-year recertification test starting
January 1, 2023.

DATES: This announcement is effective on January 11, 2023.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Legal Basis

    Section 31149(d) of Title 49 of the United States Code, enacted by
section 4116(a) of the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient
Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users, Public Law 109-59, 119
Stat. 1144, 1726 (Aug. 10, 2005), required FMCSA to establish and
maintain a current national registry of certified medical examiners
qualified to perform medical examinations and issue medical
certificates. In addition, FMCSA was to develop requirements to become
a medical examiner that included the completion of specific courses and
materials, as well as passing a test (49 U.S.C. 31149(c)(1)(D)(i) and
(iii))
    In 2012, FMCSA issued a final rule establishing the National
Registry (77 FR 24104). This rule also established training and testing
requirements for medical professionals who conduct physical
qualification examinations of interstate commercial motor vehicle
drivers. To maintain certification and listing on the National
Registry, medical examiners are required to complete periodic training
specified by FMCSA no sooner than 4 years and no later than 5 years
after the date of issuance of the medical examiner certification
credential by FMCSA, and to complete periodic training and receive a
passing score on the National Registry medical examiner certification
test no sooner than 9 years and no later than 10 years after the date
of the certification credential issued by FMCSA.

II. Background

    In 2018, FMCSA initiated development of improvements to the
National Registry system. The first medical examiners certified and
listed on the National Registry were required by regulation to complete
5-year refresher training in January 2018. Because the information
technology system improvements were not yet completed, FMCSA was unable
to deliver the 5-year refresher training to meet that deadline. On July
14, 2022, FMCSA issued the 5-year refresher training to all medical
examiners who were either past due or currently due for the training
using their National Registry accounts. FMCSA notified eligible medical
examiners who were past due for the training that they have until
December 31, 2022, to complete the training.

III. 10-Year Refresher Training and Recertification Testing

    Because of the delay issuing the 5-year refresher training and the
extended timeframe offered for completion of that training, the
programming to process the 10-year refresher training and
recertification testing in the National Registry was also delayed. This
functionality will be available starting on January 1, 2023. To ensure
that all medical examiners have a full year to complete the required
10-year refresher training and pass the recertification test, medical
examiners whose National Registry certification expires in 2023
(affected medical examiners) will have until December 31, 2023, to
complete the 10-year refresher training and pass the recertification
test. FMCSA will not take action against affected medical examiners,
provided that they complete the training and pass the recertification
test as specified in this notice.
    The 5-year refresher training developed and issued by FMCSA and
previously released to all medical examiners who were either due or
past due for their 5-year refresher training will be made available as
a resource to all training organizations that intend to provide the
National Registry medical examiner 10-year refresher training. The 5-
year refresher training will be posted on the Resource Center page of
the National Registry website at https://nationalregistry.fmcsa.dot.gov/resource-center. In addition, training
organizations can request a copy by contacting the National Registry
Technical Support Help Desk at [email protected] or<PHONE_NUMBER>.
FMCSA encourages all training organizations to obtain a copy and
incorporate the content of the 5-year refresher training into the
National Registry training they provide.
    The 10-year refresher training will be provided by private sector
training organizations in the same manner as the initial National
Registry medical examiner training required for certification. Medical
examiners will contact a private sector training organization directly
to schedule and complete the 10-year refresher training. After
successfully completing the training and uploading proof of training
completion (i.e., training certificate) to their National Registry
accounts on or after January 1, 2023, medical examiners will be
eligible to take the 10-year recertification test. Note that medical
examiners will not be able to upload proof of training and will not be
able to take the 10-year recertification test until January 1, 2023,
even if they completed the 10-year refresher training before January 1,
2023. The 10-year recertification test will be provided by the two
FMCSA-approved testing organizations (Prometric and PSI) in the same
manner as the initial National Registry medical examiner certification
test.

Administrator.

DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

[Docket No. CP15-110-000]

Northwest Pipeline LLC; Notice of Intent To Prepare an
Environmental Assessment for the Proposed Union Meter Station Upgrade
Project and Request for Comments on Environmental Issues

    The staff of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC or
Commission) will prepare an environmental assessment (EA) that will
discuss the environmental impacts of the Union Meter Station Upgrade
Project involving construction and operation of facilities by Northwest
Pipeline LLC (Northwest) in Union County, Oregon. The Commission will
use this EA in its decision-making process to determine whether the
project is in the public convenience and necessity.
    This notice announces the opening of the scoping process the
Commission will use to gather input from the public and interested
agencies on the project. Your input will help the Commission staff
determine what issues they need to evaluate in the EA. Please note that
the scoping period will close on April 27, 2015.
    You may submit comments in written form or verbally. Further
details on how to submit written comments are in the Public
Participation section of this notice. If you sent comments on this
project to the Commission before the opening of this docket on March 6,
2015, you will need to file those comments in Docket No. CP15-110-000
to ensure they are considered as part of this proceeding.
    This notice is being sent to the Commission's current environmental
mailing list for this project. State and local government
representatives should notify their constituents of this proposed
project and encourage them to comment on their areas of concern.
    If you are a landowner receiving this notice, a pipeline company
representative may contact you about the acquisition of an easement to
construct, operate, and maintain the proposed facilities. The company
would seek to negotiate a mutually acceptable agreement. However, if
the Commission approves the project, that approval conveys with it the
right of eminent domain. Therefore, if easement negotiations fail to
produce an agreement, the pipeline company could initiate condemnation
proceedings where compensation would be determined in accordance with
state law.
    Northwest provided landowners with a fact sheet prepared by the
FERC entitled ``An Interstate Natural Gas Facility On My Land? What Do
I Need To Know?'' This fact sheet addresses a number of typically asked
questions, including how to participate in the Commission's
proceedings. It is also available for viewing on the FERC Web site
(www.ferc.gov).

Summary of the Proposed Project

    Northwest proposes to modify its existing meter station in Grande
Ronde Valley, southeast of La Grande, Union County, Oregon. The Union
Meter Station Upgrade Project would increase the existing Union Meter
Station's capacity from approximately 3,120,000 to 5,500,000 standard
cubic feet per day of natural gas in accordance with a Facility
Agreement between Northwest and Avista Corporation, a local
distribution company.
    The general location of the project facilities is shown in appendix
1.\1\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ The appendices referenced in this notice will not appear in
the Federal Register. Copies of appendices were sent to all those
receiving this notice in the mail and are available at www.ferc.gov
using the link called ``eLibrary'' or from the Commission's Public
Reference Room, 888 First Street NE., Washington, DC 20426, or call
(202) 502-8371. For instructions on connecting to eLibrary, refer to
the last page of this notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Land Requirements for Construction

    The project would require approximately 0.2 acre of total surface
use occurring on previously disturbed and graveled land. Project
construction would occur within the existing 50-foot-wide by 100-foot-
long Union Meter Station property.

The EA Process

    The National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) requires the
Commission to take into account the environmental impacts that could
result from an action whenever it considers the issuance of a
Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity. NEPA also requires us
\2\ to discover and address concerns the public may have about
proposals. This process is referred to as ``scoping.'' The main goal of
the scoping process is to focus the analysis in the EA on the important
environmental issues. By this notice, the Commission requests public
comments on the scope of the issues to address in the EA. We will
consider all filed comments during the preparation of the EA.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ ``We,'' ``us,'' and ``our'' refer to the environmental staff
of the Commission's Office of Energy Projects.

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

    In the EA we will discuss impacts that could occur as a result of
the construction and operation of the proposed project under these
general headings:
     geology and soils;
     land use;
     water use and quality;
     cultural resources;
     vegetation and wildlife;
     air quality and noise;
     endangered and threatened species; and
     public safety.
    We will also evaluate reasonable alternatives to the proposed
project or portions of the project, and make recommendations on how to
lessen or avoid impacts on the various resource areas.
    The EA will present our independent analysis of the issues. The EA
will be available in the public record through eLibrary. Depending on
the comments received during the scoping process, we may also publish
and distribute the EA to the public for an allotted comment period. We
will consider all comments on the EA before making our recommendations
to the Commission. To ensure we have the opportunity to consider and
address your comments, please carefully follow the instructions in the
Public Participation section beginning on page 4.
    With this notice, we are asking agencies with jurisdiction by law
and/or special expertise with respect to the environmental issues of
this project to formally cooperate with us in the preparation of the
EA.\3\ Agencies that would like to request cooperating agency status
should follow the instructions for filing comments provided under the
Public Participation section of this notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ The Council on Environmental Quality regulations addressing
cooperating agency responsibilities are at Title 40, Code of Federal
Regulations, Part 1501.6.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Consultations Under Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation
Act

    In accordance with the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation's
implementing regulations for Section 106 of the National Historic
Preservation Act, we are using this notice to initiate consultation
with the applicable State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO), and to
solicit their views and those of other government agencies, interested
Indian tribes, and the public on the project's potential effects on
historic properties.\4\ We will define the project-specific Area of
Potential Effects (APE) in consultation with the SHPO as the project
develops. On natural gas facility projects, the APE at a minimum
encompasses all areas subject to ground disturbance (examples include
construction right-of-way, contractor/pipe storage yards, compressor
stations, and access roads). Our EA for this project will document our
findings on the impacts on historic properties and summarize the status
of consultations under Section 106.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ The Advisory Council on Historic Preservation's regulations
are at Title 36, Code of Federal Regulations, Part 800. Those
regulations define historic properties as any prehistoric or
historic district, site, building, structure, or object included in
or eligible for inclusion in the National Register of Historic
Places.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Public Participation

    You can make a difference by providing us with your specific
comments or concerns about the project. Your comments should focus on
the potential environmental effects, reasonable alternatives, and
measures to avoid or lessen environmental impacts. The more specific
your comments, the more useful they will be. To ensure that your
comments are timely and properly recorded, please send your comments so
that the Commission receives them in Washington, DC on or before April
27, 2015.
    For your convenience, there are three methods which you can use to
submit your comments to the Commission. In all instances please
reference the project docket number (CP15-110-000) with your
submission. The Commission encourages electronic filing of comments and

Environmental Mailing List

    The environmental mailing list includes federal, state, and local
government representatives and agencies; elected officials;
environmental and public interest groups; Native American Tribes; other
interested parties; and local libraries and newspapers. This list also
includes all affected landowners (as defined in the Commission's
regulations) whose property may be used temporarily for project
purposes, or who own property within certain distances of aboveground
facilities, and anyone who submits comments on the project. We will
update the environmental mailing list as the analysis proceeds to
ensure that we send the information related to this environmental
review to all individuals, organizations, and government entities
interested in and/or potentially affected by the proposed project.
    If we publish and distribute the EA, copies will be sent to the
environmental mailing list for public review and comment. If you would
prefer to receive a paper copy of the document instead of the CD
version or would like to remove your name from the mailing list, please
return the attached Information Request (appendix 2).

Becoming an Intervenor

    In addition to involvement in the EA scoping process, you may want
to become an ``intervenor'' which is an official party to the
Commission's proceeding. Intervenors play a more formal role in the
process and are able to file briefs, appear at hearings, and be heard
by the courts if they choose to appeal the Commission's final ruling.
An intervenor formally participates in the proceeding by filing a
request to intervene. Instructions for becoming an intervenor are in
the User's Guide under the ``e-filing'' link on the Commission's Web
site.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[File No. 500-1]

Freedom Environmental Services, Inc.; Order of Suspension of
Trading

September 17, 2012.
    It appears to the Securities and Exchange Commission that there is
a lack of current and accurate information concerning the securities of
Freedom Environmental Services, Inc. (``Freedom'') because of questions
regarding the adequacy and accuracy of publicly disseminated
information by Freedom, and by others, in press releases to investors
and in filings with the Commission concerning, among other things: (1)
The identity of the persons in control of the company's operations and
management; (2) the company's current financial condition; and (3) the
misappropriation of corporate funds.
    The Commission is of the opinion that the public interest and the
protection of investors require a suspension of trading in the
securities of the above-listed company.
    Therefore, it is ordered, pursuant to Section 12(k) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, that trading in the securities of the
above-listed company is suspended for the period from 9:30 a.m. EDT, on
September 17, 2012 through 11:59 p.m. EDT, on September 28, 2012.

    By the Commission.

Jill M. Peterson,
Assistant Secretary.
