Subject: Milwaukee-Racine Redesignation Request- Supplemental Information 

Dear Ms. Hedman: 

The purpose of this letter is to notify you that the Wisconsin Department ofNatural Resources (WDNR) has 

completed the public comment and hearing process related to supplemental information for the Milwaukee-Racine 

Nonattainment Area fine particulate matter (PM2.5) redesignation request. The supplemental information was 

submitted to the U.S. EPA on May 30,2013 in draft form so the agency could begin its review. No public comments 

were received by the WDNR on the supplemental information. Therefore, the information submitted on May 30, 

2013 can be considered final. 

The WDNR originally submitted a redesignation request for the Milwaukee-Racine Nonattainment Area to the U.S. 

EPA on June 5, 2012 for the 2006 24-hour PM25 National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS). All of the PM25 

monitors in this area have been measuring attainment of the 2006 24-hour PM2.5 NAAQS since 201 0. We look 

forward to the U.S. EPA being able to approve ourredesignation request. Please feel free to call Joseph Hoch at 

(608) 267-7543 if you have any questions regarding this letter. 

Sincerely, 

c6cu:t
