Hi Ragan,

With this accommodation there is no need for INGAA to file a request for 

hearing and we will not do so. Unless you advise otherwise, there also will 

be no need for INGAA to file a request to extend the comment deadline.

We sincerely appreciate the extension and everyone's efforts to handle this on 

short notice. I'm advising INGAA's members accordingly.

Thanks and best wishes for a great weekend,

Dan

Hi, Dan.

I have discussed your request with my clients and they will agree to

extend the deadline for comments until October 24. We do, however,

have to publish a notice in the Federal Register extending the deadline,

and because of publication schedules, will not be able to do that until

late next week at the earliest. Please let me know asap whether that

would result in your submitting a hearing request.

 Corrections Rule: Request for Hearing and Extension of

 Comment Deadline

Good morning Norman and Ragan –

My members are currently addressing a number of EPA matters and we need

an extension of the October 11 deadline for filing comments on the

technical corrections proposed rule. The proposed rule provides that

the comment deadline would be extended to October 24, which would be

adequate for our purposes, if someone requests a hearing. INGAA is

prepared to file a hearing request – according to this morning’s docket

no one has done so to date – but we are loath to put EPA, other parties

and ourselves to that trouble when our primary interest is obtaining

what, in the larger scheme of things, is a modest extension of the

filing deadline.

Please consult with your client to see if you are amenable to extending

the comment deadline to October 24 without INGAA submitting a hearing

request. If so, please let me know so I can prepare a request for

extension. If not, let me know so I can prepare a request for hearing.

As hearing requests must be submitted today (September 16) I would

appreciate hearing back from you as soon as possible. As I am sure you

can appreciate, if I do not hear from you I will be constrained to

request a hearing.

I appreciate you have not been given much time to respond to this, and I

sincerely appreciate your help.

Respectfully,

Dan Regan

INGAA
