ACTION: Notice of date change for public hearing and extension of comment period for the notice of proposed rulemaking. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY: EPA announces a change in the date for the public hearing on the notice of proposed rulemaking regarding emission standards for new gasoline spark-ignition and diesel compression-ignition marine engines. The Agency has decided on the new date (December 14, 1994) for the public hearing at the request of the National Marine Manufacturers Association. Additionally, EPA announces an extension of the public comment period until the end of January, 1995. EPA is extending the deadline for public comment in recognition of the December holidays that occur during the public comment period. Extension of the deadline will facilitate the submission of public comment by allowing a more flexible time frame. DATES: Comments must be received on or before Tuesday, January 31, 1995. A public hearing will be held Wednesday, December 14, 1994, at 10 a.m., extending to December 15, 1994 if necessary; requests to present oral testimony must be received on or before Friday, December 2, 1994. ADDRESSES: Interested parties may submit written comments (in triplicate, if possible) for EPA consideration by addressing them as follows: EPA Air Docket (LE-131), Attention: Docket Number A-92-28, Room M-1500, 401 M Street, S.W., Washington, DC 20460. Materials relevant to this rulemaking are contained in this docket and may be reviewed at this location from 8:00 a.m. until noon and from 1:30 p.m. until 3:30 p.m. Monday through Friday. As provided in 40 CFR part 2, a reasonable fee may be chaired by EPA for photocopying.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ken Zerafa, Office of Mobile Sources, Certification Division, (313) 668-4331 or Holly Pugliese, Office of Mobile Sources, Certification Divsion, (313) 668-4288. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Authority for the proposed new marine engine emission standards is granted to EPA by sections 203, 204, 205, 206, 207, 208, 209, 213, 215, 216, and 301(a) of the Clean Air Act (CAA) as amended. The notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) was published in the Federal Register on Wednesday, November 9, 1994 (59 FR 55930). The original public hearing date was Friday, December 9, 1994. The National Marine Manufacturers Association requested the public hearing date be changed to December 14, 1994, in order to facilitate the participation of key members of their association. The Agency wishes to promote participation of key stakeholders in this proposal and has rescheduled the public hearing for Wednesday, December 14, 1994, extending to December 15, 1994 if necessary. The original close of the comment period was Monday, January 9, 1995. EPA has extended the comment period to Tuesday, January 31, 1995, in recognition of the December holidays that occur during the comment period. Due to the holidays, many stakeholders may be unavailable, and extending the comment period will give stakeholders greater time to construct and submit comprehensive information. The Agency has an interest in examining comprehensive information from interested parties that may be useful in drafting the most appropriate final rule. Therefore, EPA has extended the comment period until Tuesday, January 31, 1995. Dated: November 23, 1994. Richard D. Wilson, Acting Assistant Administrator.
