SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Additional Information About the 

Proposed Settlement Agreement 

On April 29, 2010, CBD filed a 

complaint in the northern district of 

California alleging that EPA had failed 

to perform mandatory duties related to 

PM–10 nonattainment areas, including 

attainment determinations (as of the 

applicable attainment date) for various 

areas, and promulgation of FIPs for the 

Paul Spur/Douglas and Nogales areas in 

Arizona. Center for Biological Diversity 

v. Jackson (No. 3:10–CV–01846–MMC) 

(N.D. Cal.). CBD has since agreed that a 

number of its claims have been resolved 

by EPA action. With respect to the 

remaining claims, EPA is agreeing to 

sign final rules by various dates, which 

rules would determine whether the 

following areas attained the PM–10 

standard by the areas’ applicable 

attainment dates: Hayden, AZ, Eagle 

River, AK, Columbia Falls, MT, Libby, 

MT, Nogales, AZ, Reno, NV, and Paul 

Spur/Douglas, AZ. EPA is also agreeing 

to sign final rules that promulgate 

Federal Implementation Plans for the 

Douglas portion of the Paul Spur/ 

Douglas (AZ) area and for the Nogales 

(AZ) area by July 27, 2012 unless EPA 

takes other final action by that date. 

(EPA has already completed certain of 

the actions described in the proposed 

settlement agreement.) 

The proposed settlement agreement 

provides that within 10 days of 

signature, the parties agree to file a joint 

motion in the district court to 

administratively close this case. CBD 

further agrees to file a motion for 

voluntary dismissal, with prejudice, 

with respect to all claims in the 

Complaint within 30 days after notice 

appears in the Federal Register of EPA 

taking the last rulemaking action 

required under the proposed 

Agreement. If EPA fails to meet its 

obligations under the proposed 

Settlement Agreement, CBD’s sole 

remedy is to reinstate its action. 

For a period of thirty (30) days 

following the date of publication of this 

notice, the Agency will accept written 

comments relating to the proposed 

settlement agreement from persons who 

are not named as parties to the litigation 

in question. EPA or the Department of 

Justice may withdraw or withhold 

consent to the proposed settlement 

agreement if the comments disclose 

facts or considerations that indicate that 

such consent is inappropriate, 

improper, inadequate, or inconsistent 

with the requirements of the Act. Unless 

EPA or the Department of Justice 

determines that consent to this 

settlement agreement should be 

withdrawn, the terms of the agreement 

will be affirmed. 

II. Additional Information About 

Commenting on the Proposed 

Settlement Agreement 

A. How can I get a copy of the 

Settlement agreement? 

The official public docket for this 

action (identified by Docket ID No. 

EPA–HQ–OGC–2010–1066) contains a 

copy of the proposed settlement 

agreement. The official public docket is 

available for public viewing at the 

Office of Environmental Information 

(OEI) Docket in the EPA Docket Center, 

EPA West, Room 3334, 1301 

Constitution Ave., NW., Washington, 

DC. The EPA Docket Center Public 

Reading Room is open from 8:30 a.m. to 

4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday, 

excluding legal holidays. The telephone 

number for the Public Reading Room is 

(202) 566–1744, and the telephone 

number for the OEI Docket is (202) 566– 

1752. 

An electronic version of the public 

docket is available through http:// 

www.regulations.gov. You may use the 

http://www.regulations.gov to submit or 

view public comments, access the index 

listing of the contents of the official 

public docket, and to access those 

documents in the public docket that are 

available electronically. Once in the 

system, key in the appropriate docket 

identification number then select 

‘‘search’’. 

It is important to note that EPA’s 

policy is that public comments, whether 

submitted electronically or in paper, 

will be made available for public 

viewing online at http:// 

www.regulations.gov without change, 

unless the comment contains 

copyrighted material, CBI, or other 

information whose disclosure is 

restricted by statute. Information 

claimed as CBI and other information 


srobinson on DSKHWCL6B1PROD with NOTICES
82010 Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 249 / Wednesday, December 29, 2010 / Notices 

whose disclosure is restricted by statute 

is not included in the official public 

docket or in the electronic public 

docket. EPA’s policy is that copyrighted 

material, including copyrighted material 

contained in a public comment, will not 

be placed in EPA’s electronic public 

docket but will be available only in 

printed, paper form in the official public 

docket. Although not all docket 

materials may be available 

electronically, you may still access any 

of the publicly available docket 

materials through the EPA Docket 

Center. 

B. How and to whom do I submit 

comments? 

You may submit comments as 

provided in the ADDRESSES section. 

Please ensure that your comments are 

submitted within the specified comment 

period. Comments received after the 

close of the comment period will be 

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

consider these late comments. 

If you submit an electronic comment, 

EPA recommends that you include your 

name, mailing address, and an e-mail 

address or other contact information in 

the body of your comment and with any 

disk or CD–ROM you submit. 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. Any 

identifying or contact information 

provided in the body of a comment will 

be included as part of the comment that 

is placed in the official public docket, 

and made available in EPA’s electronic 

public docket. If EPA cannot read your 

comment due to technical difficulties 

and cannot contact you for clarification, 

EPA may not be able to consider your 

comment. 

Use of the http://www.regulations.gov 

Web site to submit comments to EPA 

electronically is EPA’s preferred method 

for receiving comments. The electronic 

public docket system is an ‘‘anonymous 

access’’ system, which means EPA will 

not know your identity, e-mail address, 

or other contact information unless you 

provide it in the body of your comment. 

In contrast to EPA’s electronic public 

docket, EPA’s electronic mail (e-mail) 

system is not an ‘‘anonymous access’’ 

system. If you send an e-mail comment 

directly to the Docket without going 

through http://www.regulations.gov, 

your e-mail address is automatically 

captured and included as part of the 

comment that is placed in the official 

public docket, and made available in 

EPA’s electronic public docket.
