NESHAP for Reciprocating Internal 

Combustion Engines; NSPS for 

Stationary Internal Combustion 

Engines 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency. 

ACTION: Notice of final decision on 

reconsideration. 

SUMMARY: On January 30, 2013, the 

Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) 

finalized amendments to the National 

Emission Standards for Hazardous Air 

Pollutants for Stationary Reciprocating 

Internal Combustion Engines and the 

Standards of Performance for Stationary 

Internal Combustion Engines. 

Subsequently, the EPA received three 

petitions for reconsideration of the final 

rule. On September 5, 2013, the EPA 

announced reconsideration of and 

requested public comment on three 

issues raised in the petitions for 

reconsideration. A summary of the 

public comments received on the

reconsideration and the EPA’s responses 

to those comments (Response to

Number EPA–HQ–OAR–2008–0708. 

After careful consideration of the public 

comments received on the September 5, 

2013, notice, the EPA has determined 

that it will not propose any changes to 

the regulations at this time related to the 

three petition issues, and is providing 

notice of this decision. The EPA is 

informing the petitioners of the decision 

in separate letters to the petitioners. The 

letters explain the EPA’s reasons for not 

proposing changes to the regulations for 

those three issues. Further discussion of 

the three petition issues can be found in 

the Response to Comment document. 

DATES: Effective August 15, 2014. 

Any petitions for review of the letters 

announcing the EPA’s decision not to 

propose changes to the regulations in 

response to the public comments 

received on the three issues under 

reconsideration described in this Notice 

must be filed in the U.S. Court of 

Appeals for the District of Columbia 

Circuit by October 14, 2014.
