copyrighted material, EPA will provide 

a reference to that material in the 

version of the comment that is placed in 

EPA’s electronic public docket. The

Comments?

You may submit comments 

electronically, by mail, or through hand 

delivery/courier. To ensure proper 

receipt by EPA, identify the appropriate 

docket ID number in the subject line on 

the first page of your comment. Please 

ensure that your comments are 

submitted within the specified comment 

period. Comments received after the

marked ‘‘late.’’ EPA is not required to 

consider these late comments. If you

follow the instructions in Unit I.D. Do 

not use EPA Dockets or e-mail to submit 

CBI or information protected by statute.

1. Electronically. If you submit an 

electronic comment as prescribed in this 

unit, EPA recommends that you include

information in the body of your 

comment. Also include this contact 

information on the outside of any disk 

or CD ROM you submit, and in any 

cover letter accompanying the disk or 

CD ROM. 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. EPA’s policy is that EPA 

will not edit your comment, and any 

identifying or contact information 

provided in the body of a comment will

included as part of the comment that is 

placed in the official public docket, and 

made available in EPA’s electronic

D. How Should I Submit CBI to the 

Agency?

Do not submit information that you 

consider to be CBI electronically 

through EPA’s electronic public docket 

or by e-mail. You may claim 

information that you submit to EPA as 

CBI by marking any part or all of that 

information as CBI (if you submit CBI 

on disk or CD ROM, mark the outside 

of the disk or CD ROM as CBI and then 

identify electronically within the disk or 

CD ROM the specific information that is 

CBI). Information so marked will not be 

disclosed except in accordance with 

procedures set forth in 40 CFR part 2.

In addition to one complete version of 

the comment that includes any 

information claimed as CBI, a copy of 

the comment that does not contain the 

information claimed as CBI must be 

submitted for inclusion in the public 

docket and EPA’s electronic public 

docket. If you submit the copy that does 

not contain CBI on disk or CD ROM, 

mark the outside of the disk or CD ROM 

clearly that it does not contain CBI. 

Information not marked as CBI will be 

included in the public docket and EPA’s 

electronic public docket without prior 

notice. If you have any questions about 

CBI or the procedures for claiming CBI, 

please consult the person listed under 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT.

My Comments for EPA?
