34702 Federal Register / Vol. 65, No. 105 / Wednesday, May 31, 2000 / Notices

EPA can revoke this CBC extension if

FMC fails to make a good-faith effort to

meet the schedule for completion, if

EPA denies or revokes any required

permit, if conditions certified in the

CBC extension application change, or

for a violation of any law or regulations

in Parts 260–266 and 268 (see 268.5(g)).

IV. Administrative Requirements

As discussed in the FR notice of

March 8, 2000, neither the requirements

of Executive Order 13084 entitled

Consultation and Coordination with

Indian Tribal Governments nor

Executive Order 13132, entitled

‘‘Federalism,’’ apply to this action.

Today, EPA is approving FMC’s

request for a one-year CBC extension of

the May 26, 2000, effective date of the

RCRA land disposal restrictions for a

facility located on Tribal Lands. This

action will significantly or uniquely

affect the communities of Indian tribal

governments by permitting this facility

to continue to treat, store, or dispose of

five waste streams as currently managed

in on-site surface impoundments

(located on Tribal Lands) until May 26,

2001.

In their comments, the Tribes stated

that by allowing FMC to continue to

treat, store, and dispose of hazardous

waste streams in the surface

impoundments, EPA is also allowing

the continued emissions of hydrogen

cyanide, phosphine, and other toxic

emissions onto the Fort Hall Indian

Reservation. The Tribes stated they

believe continuous monitoring of

emissions from the ponds is necessary

to assure compliance with Pond

Management Plan in order to protect

human health and the environment. The

Tribes asserted this would result in

direct compliance costs to the

Shoshone-Bannock Tribes.

Monitoring of emissions from the

ponds already is required of FMC under

the Pond Management Plan, as

incorporated into the RCRA Consent

Decree. FMC is responsible for the costs

of this monitoring until the ponds are

closed. Unless the Tribes actually do

their own additional monitoring, there

are no costs incurred by the Tribes. As

such, EPA concludes that this action

will not impose any direct compliance

costs on the Shoshone-Bannock Tribes

community.

This notice also does not have

federalism implications. It will not have

substantial direct effects on the States,

on the relationship between the national

government and the States, or on the

distribution of power and

responsibilities among the various

levels of government, as specified in

Executive Order 13132. Thus, the

requirements of this Executive Order

likewise do not apply to this action.

Authority: Sections 1006, 2002(a), 3001,

and 3004 of the Solid Waste Disposal Act, as

amended by the Resource Conservation and

Recovery Act of 1976, as amended (42 U.S.C.

6905, 6912(a), 6921, and 6924).

Dated: May 25, 2000.

Cliff Rothenstein,

Deputy Assistant Administrator, Office of

Solid Waste and Emergency Response.

Internet Availability of Evaluation

Report on the Sector Facility Indexing

Project and SFIP’s Future Expansion

AGENCY: Environmental Protection

Agency.

ACTION: Notice of availability of

evaluation report and future expansion

of the SFIP.

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection

Agency (EPA) is announcing the

Internet availability of an evaluation

report on the Sector Facility Indexing

Project (SFIP). Based upon the

evaluation results, the EPA is also

announcing the future expansion of the

SFIP. The EPA is now working to add

to the project a subset of federal

facilities. The SFIP is a communityright-to-know and data integration

project that currently provides

environmental performance data for

facilities within five industry sectors.

The industry sectors currently profiled

within the SFIP are automobile

assembly; petroleum refining; pulp

manufacturing; iron and steel; and

primary smelting and refining of

aluminum, copper, lead, and zinc

(nonferrous metals). On May 1, 1998,

the EPA released the Internet website

containing the SFIP data. (See 63 FR

27281, May 18, 1998). The SFIP website

is designed as an interactive tool that

allows users to customize the

information and delve into greater detail

to look at information that is too

voluminous to include in a hard copy

report.

DATES: The SFIP evaluation report is

currently available to the public on the

Internet. A limited number of hard

copies of the report are also now

available. EPA’s goal is to have the

expansion to federal facilities completed

and available on the website later this

year.

ADDRESSES: The SFIP’s data and the

evaluation report on the project may be

accessed electronically via the Internet

at the following address: http://

www.epa.gov/oeca/sfi. Requests for a

hard copy of the evaluation report may

be sent to: SFIP, 55 Wheeler Street,

Cambridge, MA 02138. Requests may

also be made to the SFIP telephone

hotline at: (617) 520–3015.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: When

EPA launched the SFIP website

(www.epa.gov/oeca/sfi) in May 1998,

the Agency was committed to

monitoring and evaluating the progress

of this project. Specifically, we wanted

to look at SFIP’s success in meeting the

two goals of providing greater public

access to accurate compliance and

facility-level information, as well as

improving multimedia facility profiling

and sector-based analysis.

For the evaluation, EPA obtained

input from user groups both inside and

outside the Agency, including the EPA

Regions, States, industry, environmental

groups, and trade associations. The

results have been positive. Extensively

used, SFIP has enhanced public access

to and knowledge of the environmental

performance of individual, regulated

facilities. The project has improved

multimedia facility profiling; provided

useful data in a ‘‘user-friendly’’ website;

improved data quality in underlying

databases; and served as an incentive to

achieve and maintain compliance.

The evaluation also identified

widespread interest for an expansion of

SFIP that would build upon its success

and make the project an even more

valuable analytical tool. Thus, EPA is

announcing that the SFIP will be

expanding to include a subset of federal

facilities. This expansion will encourage

greater accountability on the part of

federal facilities, and will allow the

public to obtain important

environmental information about these

facilities located in their communities.

EPA is working to arrive at a subset of

the federal facility universe that is both

manageable and provides useful

information. Our goal is to have the

expansion to federal facilities completed

later this year.

As SFIP expands, we will ensure that

we maintain the public’s confidence in

the integrity of the data. Once again

Regions, States and the affected

facilities will be given the opportunity

to review the data and resolve any data

quality issues through a coordinated

EPA/State effort prior to release.
