Gable at (206) 553–2582 or 

gable.jill@epa.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 

303(d) of the Clean Water Act (CWA) 

(hereinafter referred to as ‘‘Section 

303(d)’’) requires states to identify those 

waters within their jurisdiction for 

which effluent limitations are not 

stringent enough to implement 

applicable water quality standards, to 

establish a priority ranking for such 

waters, and to submit a listing of such 

waters to EPA (hereinafter referred to as 

a ‘‘303(d) list’’). 

EPA’s Water Quality Planning and 

Management regulations include 

requirements for implementation of 

section 303(d), at 40 CFR 130.7. 40 CFR 

130.7(d) requires states to identify water 

quality limited waters still requiring 

Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs) 

every two years. The list of waters still 

needing TMDLs must also include 

priority rankings and must identify the 

waters targeted for TMDL development 

during the next two years. See 40 CFR 

130.7(d). 

Section 303(d)(2) also requires that 

EPA approve or disapprove lists 

submitted by States. If EPA disapproves 

a list, EPA must identify waters in the 

state that do not meet water quality 

standards. After EPA has identified 

waters not attaining water quality 

standards, EPA must issue a public 

notice seeking comments on the list. See 

40 CFR 130.7(d)(2). 

On May 24, 2011, the Oregon 

Department of Environmental Quality 

(‘‘ODEQ’’) submitted Oregon’s 2010 

Section 303(d) list of water quality 

limited segments (‘‘WQLSs’’) (‘‘Oregon’s 

2010 303(d) list’’), to EPA, as part of the 

Integrated Report submitted by the state 

to meet the requirements of sections 

303(d), 305(b), and 314 of the CWA. On 

March 15, 2012, EPA sent a letter to 

ODEQ, in which EPA approved ODEQ’s 

inclusion of 970 water quality limited 

segments to Oregon’s 303(d) list and 

ODEQ’s removal of 927 water quality 

limited segments from Oregon’s 303(d) 

list. 

In the March 15, 2012 letter to ODEQ, 

EPA also disapproved Oregon’s 

decisions not to list 1004 water quality 

limited segments as impaired, including 

321 water quality limited segments that 

Oregon identified as impaired but failed 

to list on the Section 303(d) list. EPA 

has identified these additional water 

quality limited segment for inclusion on 

the State’s 2010 Section 303(d) list. 

These water quality limited segments 

and associated pollutants as proposed 

by EPA are identified in Enclosure 3 of 

the decision document available at the 

following Web site link: www.epa.gov/ 

region10/notices/oregon303d.html. 

EPA is providing the public the 

opportunity to review its proposed 

decision to list 1004 water quality 

limited segments to Oregon’s 2010 

Section 303(d) list. EPA will consider 

and respond to public comments in 

reaching its final decision on the 

addition of the referenced water bodies 

and pollutants identified for inclusion 

on Oregon’s 2010 303(d) list.

FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS 

COMMISSION 

[AU Docket No. 12–25; DA 12–355] 

Mobility Fund Phase I Auction GIS 

Data of Potentially Eligible Census 

Blocks 

AGENCY: Federal Communications 

Commission. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: In this document, the 

Commission’s Wireless 

Telecommunications and Wireline 

Competition Bureaus (the ‘‘Bureaus’’) 

announce the availability of geographic 

information system (GIS) data for the 

census blocks potentially eligible for 

Mobility Fund Phase I support to be 

offered in Auction 901. This data does 

not update or replace the list of 

potentially eligible blocks. Rather, it 

provides the same data in additional 

formats and thus just supplements the 

previously-released data files and 

interactive map. The Bureaus are taking 

this step to make the data accessible to 

more people and to make it easier to use 

for individual analysis. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Lisa 

Stover of the Auctions and Spectrum 

Access Division at (717) 338–2868. To 

request materials in accessible formats 

(Braille, large print, electronic files, 

audio format) for people with 

disabilities, send an email to 

fcc504@fcc.gov or call the Consumer 

and Governmental Affairs Bureau at 

(202) 418–0530 or (202) 418–0432 

(TTY). 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This is a 

summary of the Mobility Fund Phase I 

Auction GIS Data for Potentially Eligible 

Census Blocks Public Notice (Public 

Notice) released on March 8, 2012. The 

Public Notice and related Commission 

documents may be purchased from the 

Commission’s duplicating contractor, 

Best Copy and Printing, Inc. (BCPI), 445 

12th Street SW., Room CY–B402, 

Washington, DC 20554, telephone 202– 

488–5300, fax 202–488–5563, or you 

may contact BCPI at its Web site: 

http://www.BCPIWEB.com. When 

ordering documents from BCPI, please 

provide the appropriate FCC document 

number, for example, DA 12–121. The 

Public Notice and related documents 

also are available on the Internet at the 

Commission’s Web site: http:// 

wireless.fcc.gov/auctions/901/or by 

using the search function for AU Docket 

No. 12–25 on the Commission’s 

Electronic Comment Filing System 

(ECFS) Web page at http://www.fcc.gov/ 

cgb/ecfs/. 

1. In the Auction 901 Comment Public 

Notice, the Bureaus concluded that they 

would identify census blocks eligible for 

the Mobility Fund Phase I support to be 

offered in Auction 901 based on an 

analysis of the most recent available 

American Roamer data, from January 

2012. A summary of the Auction 901 

Comment Public Notice was published 

in the Federal Register at 77 Fed. Reg. 

7152 (Feb. 10, 2012). With the Auction 

901 Comment Public Notice, the 

Bureaus provided, at paragraphs 15, and 

18–19, a preliminary list of such blocks 

using older American Roamer data and 

stated that they would provide an 

updated list of potentially eligible 

census blocks and related updated 

information upon completion of their 

analysis of the January 2012 American 

Roamer data. With the Auction 901 

Updated Potentially Eligible Blocks 

Public Notice, (77 FR 9655, February 17, 

2012), the Bureaus provided the 

updated list of potentially eligible 

blocks based on January 2012 American 

Roamer data in electronic format as 

‘‘Attachment A’’ files. 

2. Concurrent with the release of 

Auction 901 Updated Potentially 

Eligible Blocks Public Notice, the 

Bureaus announced the availability of a 

map of the updated potentially eligible 

blocks. The map is an interactive visual 

representation of data from the updated 

Attachment A files. The Attachment A 

files contain more information and 

generally more detail than is displayed 

on the map. The map is available at 

http://wireless.fcc.gov/auctions/901/and 

at http://www.fcc.gov/maps/. 

3. The data formats the Bureaus make 

available are additional formats of the 

data as shown in the interactive map. 

These formats, which are available at 

http://wireless.fcc.gov/auctions/901/, 

are the following: 

• Downloadable shapefile 

• Web mapping service 

• MapBox map tiles 

4. The shapefile format is actually 

four individual files (.dbf, .shp, .shx, 

and .prj) all with the same prefix. That 

information is available at: ‘‘Esri 

Shapefile Technical Description,’’ 

http://www.esri.com/library/ 

whitepapers/pdfs/shapefile.pdf. This 

format is generally recognized as a 

standard transfer file for GIS data. The 

shapefile is an accepted transfer in just 

about every GIS software package. 

5. Web mapping service (WMS) is an 

Open Geospatial Consortium standard 

for delivering geospatial data over the 

web. That information is available at 

http://www.opengeospatial.org/ 

standards. The WMS data service can be 

viewed in two ways. First, the data can 

be viewed by using the URL. Second, 

most GIS software allows you to add 

this service as a layer to your session or 

project. 

6. MapBox map tiles are cached map 

tiles of the data. With this open source 

software approach, these image tiles can 

be joined with other MapBox layers to 

make new maps. This information is 

available at http://mapbox.com/. 

7. For additional information about 

Auction 901, including an overview of 

requirements to participate in the 

auction and proposals for auction 

procedures, you should consult the 

Auction 901 Comment Public Notice. As 

set forth in that public notice, comments 

were due February 24, and reply 

comments were due March 9, 2012. As 

set forth in ‘‘Mobility Fund Phase I 

Auction; Limited Extension of 

Deadlines for Comments and Reply 

Comments on Census Block Eligibility 

Challenges,’’ comments and reply 

comments on census block eligibility 

challenges are due March 16, 2012, and 

March 26, 2012, respectively. Public 

notices and additional information 

about Auction 901 may be found at
