SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Additional Information About the 

Proposed Consent Decree 

This proposed consent decree would 

resolve a lawsuit alleging that the 

Administrator failed to perform a 

nondiscretionary duty to grant or deny, 

within 60 days of submission, an 

administrative petition to object to a 

CAA Title V permit issued by the 

Arkansas Department of Environmental 

Quality to Southwestern Electric Power 

Company (a unit of American Electric 

Power) for the operation of the John W. 

Turk, Jr. Power Plant. Under the terms 

of the proposed consent decree, EPA has 

agreed to respond to the petition by 

December 15, 2009. In addition, the 

proposed consent decree states that 

within fifteen (15) business days 

following the signature of its response 

EPA shall deliver notice of such action 

to the Office of the Federal Register for 

prompt publication. The proposed 

consent decree states that, after EPA 

fulfills its obligations under the decree, 

and the Plaintiffs’ claims for costs of 

litigation have been resolved, the case 

shall be dismissed with prejudice. 

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 

consent decree from persons who were 

not named as parties or intervenors to 

the litigation in question. EPA or the 

Department of Justice may withdraw or 

withhold consent to the proposed 

consent decree 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, based on any comment 

submitted, that consent to this consent 

decree should be withdrawn, the terms 

of the decree will be affirmed. 

II. Additional Information About 

Commenting on the Proposed Consent 

Decree 

A. How Can I Get a Copy of the Consent 

Decree? 

The official public docket for this 

action (identified by Docket ID No. 

EPA–HQ–OGC–2009–0756) contains a 

copy of the proposed consent decree. 

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 

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.

BILLING CODE P 

FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION 

Public Workshops and Roundtables: 

From Town Crier to Bloggers: How Will 

Journalism Survive the Internet Age? 

AGENCY: Federal Trade Commission. 

ACTION: Notice Announcing Public 

Workshops and Opportunity for 

Comment. 

SUMMARY: The Federal Trade 

Commission (‘‘FTC’’ or ‘‘Commission’’) 

announces that it will hold two days of 

public workshops on December 1 and 2, 

2009, to examine the Internet’s impact 

on journalism in newspapers, 

magazines, broadcast television and 

radio, and cable television. The Internet 

has changed how many consumers 

receive news and altered the advertising 

landscape. Low entry barriers on the 

Internet have allowed new voices of 

journalism to emerge; the Internetenabled links from one web site to 

another have given consumers easy 

access to all types of news; efficiencies 

available through the Internet have 

substantially reduced advertising costs. 

These and other changes related to the 

Internet have benefitted consumers 

greatly. 

At the same time, however, lower 

online advertising costs have reduced 

advertising revenues to news 

organizations that rely on those 

revenues for the majority of their 

funding. The explosion in the number 

and types of web sites has increased the 

supply of advertising locations. As that 

supply has increased, advertisers now 

pay less for online advertising, and 

some advertising has moved from print, 

television, or radio to online sites. In 

addition, most online news is offered 

free, so online readers of news 

frequently do not contribute 

subscription revenues to news media. 

These developments are challenging 

the ability of news organizations to fund 

journalism. The workshops will 

consider a wide range of issues, 

including: (1) the economics of 

journalism on the Internet and in more 

traditional media; (2) how the business 

models of different types of news 

organizations may evolve in response to 

the challenges associated with the 

Internet; (3) innovative forms of 

journalism that have emerged on the 

Internet; (4) how competition may 

evolve in markets for journalism and 

advertising; and (5) changes in 

governmental policies that have been 

proposed as ways to support journalism. 

The Commission seeks the views of 

the news media and the legal, academic, 

consumer, and business communities 

on the issues to be explored at the 

hearings. This notice poses a series of 

questions on which the Commission 

seeks comment. 

DATES: The dates for the workshops are 

December 1 and 2, 2009. Comments 

must be received by November 6, 2009, 

to be considered in preparing for the 

workshops. 

ADDRESSES: The workshops will be held 

at the FTC’s Conference Center located 

at 601 New Jersey Ave., N.W., 

Washington, D.C. 20001. Those who 

plan to attend are encouraged to preregister by sending an email to 

(newsmediaworkshop@ftc.gov). This 

information will be used for planning 

purposes only. Interested parties are 

invited to submit written comments 

electronically or in paper form, by 

following the instructions in the 

Instructions For Filing Comments part 

of the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION

section below. Comments filed in 

electronic form should be submitted by 

using the following weblink: (http:// 

public.commentworks.com/ftc/ 

newsmediaworkshop) and following the 

instructions on the web-based form. 

Comments in paper form should be 

mailed or delivered to the following 

address: Federal Trade Commission, 

Office of the Secretary, Room H-135 

(Annex F), 600 Pennsylvania Avenue,
