McCarthy, Civil Action No. 3:12–cv–6472–CRB (N.D. Cal.). On December 21, 2012, Plaintiff filed a complaint alleging that Gina McCarthy, in her official capacity as Administrator of the United States Environmental Protection Agency (‘‘EPA’’), failed to perform a mandatory duty by not acting on 2006 PM 2.5 infrastructure state implementation plans (iSIPs) for six states and failed to promulgate transport federal implementation plans (FIPs) for an additional 20 states and the District of Columbia. The proposed consent decree would establish deadlines for EPA to take actions.

**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :** 
I. Additional Information About the Proposed Consent Decree

The proposed consent decree would resolve a lawsuit filed by the Sierra Club seeking to compel the Administrator to take actions on 2006 PM 2.5 infrastructure SIPs for six states and to promulgate transport FIPs for an additional 20 states and the District of Columbia. The proposed consent decree (1) agrees that no claim is stated as to an iSIP claim for Illinois and deems an iSIP claim as to California moot as EPA has acted on submittals relating to those claims, (2) agrees that no claim is stated for failure to issue transport FIPs for 10 states which were included in CSAPR as it is the transport FIP for those states, and (3) deems transport FIP obligations for 5 states (Alaska, Montana, North Dakota, Louisiana, & Utah) moot as EPA has acted on those transport SIPs.

Under the terms of the proposed consent decree, by November 30, 2015, EPA shall take final action to approve or disapprove a SIP on the remaining iSIP elements for California, Illinois, Michigan, Nebraska, South Dakota and Wisconsin. In addition, the proposed consent decree states that EPA shall take final action to promulgate a good neighbor FIP or approve a SIP regarding the transport obligations for 5 remaining states and the District of Columbia which final action must be signed for Colorado and Wyoming by July 31, 2015, for Oregon by September 30, 2015, and for the District of Columbia, South Dakota, and Idaho, by November 30,
2015.

The proposed consent decree requires EPA to send notice of each action to the Office of the Federal Register for review and publication within 15 days of signature. In addition, the proposed consent decree outlines the procedure for the Plaintiff to request costs of litigation, including attorney fees. When these obligations have been completed, the case shall be terminated and 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 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.

The comment period for the diclofop-methyl registration review docket was open for 60 days, from September 24, 2014 to November 24, 2014.
