SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Additional Information About the 

Proposed Consent Decree 

The proposed consent decree would 

resolve a lawsuit filed by the Plaintiffs 

seeking to compel EPA to review the 

existing Kraft Pulp NSPS under CAA 

Section 111(b)(1)(B), 42 U.S.C. 

7411(b)(1)(B). 

Under the proposed consent decree 

EPA shall review no later than May 15, 

2013, the Kraft Pulp NSPS and sign for 

publication one or a combination of the 

following: (1) A proposed rule 

containing revisions to the Kraft Pulp 

NSPS, 40 CFR part 60, Subpart BB 

(‘‘NSPS Subpart BB’’), under section 

111(b)(1)(B) of the CAA, 42 U.S.C. 

7411(b)(1)(B); (2) a proposed 

determination under section 

111(b)(1)(B) not to revise NSPS Subpart 

BB; or (3) sign for publication a 

determination that review is not 

appropriate in light of readily available 

information on the efficacy of NSPS 

Subpart BB. The proposed consent 

decree also states that if EPA signs a 

proposed rule or a proposed 

determination then no later than March 

14, 2014, EPA shall sign one or a 

combination of the following: (1) A final 

rule containing revisions to NSPS 

Subpart BB under section 111(b)(1)(B) of 

the CAA, 42 U.S.C. 7411(b)(1)(B); or (2) 

a final determination under section 

111(b)(1)(B) not to revise Subpart BB. 

The proposed consent decree requires 

that, within 10 business days following 

signature of the proposed or final rules 

or determinations required in the 

proposed consent decree, EPA shall 

forward it or them to the Office of the 

Federal Register for publication in the 

Federal Register. After EPA fulfills its 

obligations under the proposed consent 

decree, the matter shall be terminated 

and the case 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 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decree should be withdrawn, the terms 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–2012–0730) 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 

www.regulations.gov. You may use 

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 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 email 

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 

mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES

56842 Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 179 / Friday, September 14, 2012 / Notices 

and cannot contact you for clarification, 

EPA may not be able to consider your 

comment. 

Use of the 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, email 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 (email) 

system is not an ‘‘anonymous access’’ 

system. If you send an email comment 

directly to the Docket without going 

through www.regulations.gov, your 

email 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.

FEDERAL MEDIATION AND

Labor-Management Relations 

Information Collection Requests 

AGENCY: Federal Mediation and 

Conciliation Service. 

ACTION: Submission for OMB Review: 

Request for Comments. 

SUMMARY: The Federal Mediation and 

Conciliation Service (FMCS) hereby 

announces the submission of the 

following public information collection 

request (ICR) to the Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB) for 

review and approval in accordance with 

the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 

(Pub. L. 104–13). The information 

collection request is the Notice to 

Mediation Agencies (Agency Form F–7), 

OMB control number 3076–0004. No 

comments were received pursuant to 

FMCS’s prior 60-day notice in the 

Federal Register on June 26, 2012. 

However, we would like to make a 

correction to that notice. The collection 

is actually being submitted to OMB as 

a reinstatement with change of a 

previously approved collection. The 

changes include modest streamlining 

and improvements for clarity. OMB is 

interested in comments on specific 

aspects of the collection. The OMB is 

particularly interested in comments 

that: (1) Evaluate whether the proposed 

collection of information is necessary 

for the proper performance of the 

functions of the agency, including 

whether the information will have 

practical utility; 

(2) Evaluates the accuracy of the 

agency’s estimates of the burden of the 

proposed collection information; 

(3) Enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and 

(4) Minimize the burden of the 

collections of information on those who 

are to respond, including the use of 

appropriate automated, electronic 

collection technologies or other forms of 

information technology. 

Burden: FMCS receives 

approximately 21,000 responses to the 

form Notice to Mediation Agencies 

(OMB No. 3076–004). 

Affected Entities: Private sector 

employers and labor unions involved in 

interstate commerce that file notices for 

mediation services to the FMCS and 

state, local and territorial agencies. 

DATES: Comments must be submitted on 

or before October 15, 2012. 

ADDRESSES: Submit written comments 

to: Email: 

oira_submissions@omb.eop.gov. Please 

include the FMCS form number, the 

information collection title, and the 

OMB control number in the subject line 

of the message. Comments may also be 

sent to fax number 202.395.5806 to the 

attention of Desk Officer for FMCS.

additional information, see the related 

60-day notice published in the Federal
