On June 27, 2005, EPA proposed to disapprove provisions relating to opacity limitations contained in an Ohio submittal dated June 4, 2003. EPA is evaluating the public comments received in response to the proposed disapproval. Given the passage of time,


### 46384 Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 153 / Friday, August 8, 2014 / Proposed Rules

on June 26, 2014 (79 FR 36277), EPA solicited supplemental comment specifically with respect to whether
events subsequent to the prior comment period should alter EPA’s proposed disapproval of Ohio’s submission dated June 4, 2003, with respect to SIP opacity limitations. EPA did not solicit comments on Ohio’s submission or EPA’s proposed action of June 27, 2005, on that submission, except to the extent that events subsequent to the original comment period are relevant to EPA’s evaluation of the submission and EPA’s proposed action. This was not a reopening of the original comment period, but the opening of a supplemental comment period. In the supplemental proposal, we requested comment by July 28, 2014. We received a request from the Ohio EPA, on July 7, 2014, to extend the comment period an additional 90 days. We also received a similar request from the Ohio Utility Group on July 17, 2014. EPA has considered these requests and has decided to reopen the comment period for an additional 30 days. EPA considers a comment period extended by more than 30 days (including time between July 28, 2014 and today) to be more than sufficient to research and analyze any events subsequent to the original comment period which might be relevant to this supplemental comment period. Neither Ohio EPA nor the Ohio Utility Group identified any particularly time-consuming issues relevant to the supplemental comment period, nor is EPA aware of any. The comment period now closes on September 8, 2014.

Dated: July 29, 2014. Susan Hedman, Regional Administrator, Region 5.
