26, 2011 and issue final regulations by May 26, 2012.

EPA’s policy is that all comments received will be included in the public docket without 

change and may be made available online at http://www.regulations.gov, including any 

personal information provided, unless the comment includes information claimed to be 

Confidential Business Information (CBI) or other information whose disclosure is 
restricted by statute. Do not submit information that you consider to be CBI or otherwise 

protected through http://www.regulations.gov or e-mail. The http://www.regulations.gov

Web site is an ‘‘anonymous access’’ system, which means EPA will not know your 

identity or contact information unless you provide it in the body of your comment. If you 

send an e-mail comment directly to EPA without going through 

http://www.regulations.gov, your e-mail address will be automatically captured and 

included as part of the comment that is placed in the public docket and made available on 

the Internet. If you submit an electronic comment, EPA recommends that you include 

your name and other contact information in the body of your comment and with any disk 

or CD–ROM you submit. 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. 

Electronic files should avoid the use of special characters, avoid any form of encryption, 

and be free of any defects or viruses. For additional information about EPA’s public 

docket, visit the EPA Docket Center homepage at
