National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants; Permits

for Early Reductions Sources

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule; reopening of comment period.

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

SUMMARY: EPA is reopening the comment period for a proposed rule for

Early Reductions Permits published in the Federal Register of December

29, 1993 (58 FR 68804). Several persons who intend to submit comments

concerning the proposed rule for Early Reductions Permits requested

additional time to prepare their responses, beyond the 30 days

originally provided. In consideration of these requests, EPA is

reopening the comment period in order to give all interested persons

the opportunity to comment fully.

DATES: Comments. The comment period is reopened. Comments must be

received on or before March 3, 1994.

ADDRESSES: Docket. Docket No. A-93-08, containing supporting

information used in developing the proposed rule is available for

public inspection and copying between 8:30 a.m. and 3:30 p.m., Monday

through Friday, at EPA's Air Docket, room M1500, U.S. Environmental

Protection Agency, 401 M Street, SW., Washington, DC. A reasonable fee

may be charged for copying.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr. David Beck, Emission Standards

Division (MD-13), U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Research

Triangle Park, North Carolina 27711, telephone (919) 541-5421.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Comments on the proposed rule were to be

received on or before January 28, 1994 (a 30 day comment period). The

comment period is reopened until March 3, 1994. This extension of the

comment period is consistent with Executive Order 12866, which states

that ``each agency should afford the public a meaningful opportunity to

comment on any proposed regulation, which in most cases should include

a comment period of not less than 60 days.'' Reopening the comment

period until March 3, 1994 will provide the public slightly more than

the suggested 60 days.

Dated: February 4, 1994.

Mary D. Nichols,

Assistant Administrator for Air and Radiation.
