Colorado, North Dakota, South Dakota, 

and Utah. The proposed consent decree 

would establish deadlines for EPA to 

take action on these submissions. 

DATES: Written comments on the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Additional Information About the 

Proposed Consent Decree 

The proposed consent decree would 

resolve a lawsuit filed by WildEarth 

Guardians (‘‘Plaintiffs’’) seeking to 

compel the Administrator to take 

actions under CAA sections 110(k)(2) to 

take action on several SIP submissions 

from the States of Colorado, North 

Dakota, South Dakota, and Utah. These 

SIP revisions were submitted to EPA 

between June of 2009 and June of 2011. 

Section 110(k)(2) requires EPA to take 

action on SIP revisions within twelve 

months of the submission of a SIP 

revision that has been determined to be 

or deemed to be complete. EPA did not 

take action on the SIP revisions listed 

above within the statutory deadline and 

this is the basis for the Plaintiffs’ 

mandatory duty lawsuit at issue in the 

proposed consent decree. 

The proposed consent decree would 

require EPA to sign a notice of final 

action to approve, disapprove, approve 

in part and disapprove in part, or 

conditionally approve the above-listed 

SIP revisions by the specific dates 

identified in the proposed consent 

decree. The proposed consent decree 

would also require EPA, following 

signature of the notices of final action 

on the SIP revisions, to promptly submit 

such notices to the Office of the Federal 

Register for review and publication in 

the Federal Register. After EPA fulfills 

its obligations under the proposed 

consent decree, the consent decree 

would be terminated and the case 

dismissed. In addition, the proposed 

consent decree contains a provision 

addressing Plaintiffs’ attorneys’ fees, 

costs, and expenses incurred in this 

litigation. 

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 are 

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 consent 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–2013–0702) 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 

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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Synopsis of the Public Notice 

With the assistance of a third-party 

contractor, and based on the record to 

date, the Media Bureau has developed a 

Catalog of Eligible Expenses that lists 

specific types of expenses within cost 

categories that broadcasters might incur 

following channel relocation. The 

Catalog of Eligible Expenses includes 

both ‘‘hard’’ costs, such as new 

equipment, and ‘‘soft’’ costs, such as 

legal and engineering services. The 

Notice seeks comment not only on the 

types of expenses listed in the Catalog 

of Eligible Expenses, but also on the 

prices of the equipment and services. 

Because the Spectrum Act limits the 

Broadcaster Relocation Fund to $1.75 

billion, the Commission also seeks 

comments on ways to mitigate costs. 

Specifically, the Notice seeks comment
