General Information 

A. What Should I Consider as I Prepare 

My Comments for EPA? 

1. Submitting CBI. Do not submit this 

information to EPA through http:// 

www.regulations.gov or e-mail. Clearly 

mark the part or all of the information 

that you claim to be CBI. For CBI 

information in a disk or CD–ROM that 

you mail to EPA, 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 claimed as CBI. In addition to one 

complete version of the comment that 

includes 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. Information so marked 

will not be disclosed except in 

accordance with procedures set forth in 

40 CFR part 2. 

2. Tips for Preparing Your Comments. 

When submitting comments, remember 

to: 

• Identify the rulemaking by docket 

number and other identifying 

information (subject heading, Federal 

Register date and page number). 

• Follow directions—The agency may 

ask you to respond to specific questions 

or organize comments by referencing a 

Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) part 

or section number. 

• Explain why you agree or disagree; 

suggest alternatives and substitute 

language for your requested changes. 

• Describe any assumptions and 

provide any technical information and/ 

or data that you used. 

• If you estimate potential costs or 

burdens, explain how you arrived at 

your estimate in sufficient detail to 

allow for it to be reproduced. 

• Provide specific examples to 

illustrate your concerns, and suggest 

alternatives. 

• Explain your views as clearly as 

possible, avoiding the use of profanity 

or personal threats. 

• Make sure to submit your 

comments by the comment period 

deadline identified. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under 

section 108(a) of the Clean Air Act 

(CAA), the Administrator identifies and 

lists certain pollutants which ‘‘cause or 

contribute to air pollution which may 

reasonably be anticipated to endanger 

public health or welfare.’’ The EPA then 

issues air quality criteria for these listed 

pollutants, which are commonly 

referred to as ‘‘criteria pollutants.’’ The 

air quality criteria are to ‘‘accurately 

reflect the latest scientific knowledge 

useful in indicating the kind and extent 

of all identifiable effects on public

health or welfare which may be 

expected from the presence of [a] 

pollutant in the ambient air, in varying 

quantities.’’ Under section 109 of the 

CAA, EPA establishes primary (healthbased) and secondary (welfare-based) 

national ambient air quality standards 

(NAAQS) for pollutants for which air 

quality criteria are issued. Section 

109(d) of the CAA requires periodic 

review and, if appropriate, revision of 

existing air quality criteria. The revised 

air quality criteria reflect advances in 

scientific knowledge on the effects of 

the pollutant on public health or 

welfare. The EPA is also required to 

periodically review and revise the 

NAAQS, if appropriate, based on the 

revised criteria. 

Air quality criteria have been 

established for particulate matter (PM) 

and NAAQS have been established for 

PM2.5 and PM10 to provide protection 

from fine and coarse particles, 

respectively. Presently, EPA is 

reviewing the air quality criteria and 

NAAQS for PM. The EPA’s overall plan 

and schedule for this review is 

presented in the Integrated Review Plan 

for the National Ambient Air Quality 

Standards for Particulate Matter.1 A 

draft of the integrated review plan was 

released for public review and comment 

in October 2007 and was the subject of 

a consultation with the Clean Air 

Scientific Advisory Committee (CASAC) 

on November 30, 2007 (72 FR 63177; 

November 8, 2007). Comments received 

from that consultation and from the 

public were considered in finalizing the 

plan and in beginning the review of the 

air quality criteria. 

As part of EPA’s review of the 

primary (health-based) and secondary 

(welfare-based) PM NAAQS, the Agency 

is conducting quantitative assessments 

characterizing (1) the health risks 

associated with exposure to ambient PM 

and (2) urban visibility impairment 

associated with PM. The EPA’s plans for 

conducting these assessments, including 

the proposed scope and methods of the 

analyses, were presented in two 

planning documents titled, Particulate 

Matter National Ambient Air Quality 

Standards: Scope and Methods Plan for 

Health Risk and Exposure Assessment 

and Particulate Matter National 

Ambient Air Quality Standards: Scope 

and Methods Plan for Urban Visibility 

Impact Assessment (henceforth, Scope 

and Methods Plans).2 These documents 

were released for public comment in 

February 2009 and were the subject of 

a consultation with the CASAC on April 

2, 2009 (74 FR 11580; March 18, 2009). 

Comments received from the CASAC 

consultation (Samet, 2009) 3 as well as 

public comments on the Scope and 

Methods Plans have been considered in 

developing the draft assessment 

documents being released at this time. 

The draft documents announced on 

September 10, 2009 (74 FR 46589) 

convey the approaches taken to assess 

exposures to ambient PM and to 

characterize associated health risks or 

urban visibility impairment, as well as 

present the initial key results, 

observations, and related uncertainties 

associated with the quantitative 

analyses performed. These draft 

documents were made available on 

September 8, 2009, through the 

Agency’s Technology Transfer Network 

(TTN) Web site at http://www.epa.gov/

ttn/naaqs/standards/pm/s_pm_

index.html. These documents may be 

accessed in the ‘‘Documents from 

Current Review’’ section under ‘‘Risk 

and Exposure Assessments.’’ The EPA is 

soliciting advice and recommendations 

from the CASAC by means of a review 

of the draft documents at an upcoming 

public meeting of the CASAC scheduled 

in Chapel Hill, NC. Information about 

this public meeting was published as a 

separate notice in the Federal Register 

on September 10, 2009 (74 FR 46586). 

Following the CASAC meeting, EPA 

will consider comments received from 

the CASAC and the public in preparing 

revisions to these assessment 

documents. 

In addition, on September 16, 2009, 

EPA made available a third draft 

document titled, Policy Assessment for 

the Review of the National Ambient Air 

Quality Standards: Preliminary Draft. 

The development of this document is a 

result of recent changes to the NAAQS 

review process. On May 21, 2009, 

Administrator Jackson called for key 

changes to the NAAQS review process 

including reinstating a policy 

assessment document that contains staff 

analyses of the scientific bases for 

alternative policy options for 

consideration by senior Agency 

management prior to rulemaking. This 

document, which builds upon the 

historical ‘‘Staff Paper,’’ will serve to 

‘‘bridge the gap’’ between the scientific 

information and the judgments required 

of the Administrator in determining 

whether it is appropriate to retain or 

revise the standards. In conjunction 

with this change, EPA will no longer 

issue a policy assessment in the form of 

an Advance Notice of Proposed 

Rulemaking (ANPR).4

The preliminary draft Policy 

Assessment (PA) builds upon 

information presented in the Integrated 

Science Assessment for Particulate 

Matter (Second External Review Draft) 5

and the two draft assessment documents 

described above. This preliminary draft 

PA includes several chapters but is not 

intended to be a complete draft PA 

document in that it does not include 

staff conclusions on a range of policy 

options that could be appropriate for the 

Administrator to consider concerning 

whether, and if so how, to revise the 

primary and secondary PM NAAQS. It 

is instead being released for 

informational purposes to facilitate a 

discussion with CASAC on the overall 

structure, areas of focus, and level of 

detail to be included in an external 

review draft of the document, which 

EPA plans to release for CASAC review 

and public comment later this year. 

The preliminary draft PA may be 

accessed online through EPA’s TTN 

Web site at http://www.epa.gov/ttn/

naaqs/standards/pm/s_pm_index.html. 

This document may be accessed in the 

‘‘Documents from Current Review’’ 

section under ‘‘Policy Assessments.’’ 

The discussion with CASAC on this 

preliminary draft PA will be held at the 

same meeting that CASAC will review 

the second draft Integrated Science 

Assessment (ISA) and the two draft 

assessment documents described above. 

The draft documents briefly described 

above do not represent and should not 

be construed to represent any final EPA 

policy, viewpoint, or determination. 

The EPA will consider any public 

comments submitted in response to this 

notice when revising the documents.
