Board, 1331 F Street NW., Suite 1000, 

Washington, DC 20004–1111. 

Telephone: (202) 272–0012 (Voice) or

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In this 

notice, ‘‘we,’’ ‘‘us’’ and ‘‘our’’ refer to 

the Architectural and Transportation 

Barriers Compliance Board (Access 

Board). 

In February 2013, we published a 

notice of intent to establish an advisory 

committee to make recommendations to 

the Board on matters associated with 

revising and updating our accessibility 

guidelines issued pursuant to the 

Americans with Disabilities Act for 

transportation vehicles that operate on 

fixed guideway systems (e.g., rapid rail, 

light rail, commuter rail, intercity rail, 

and high speed rail). See 78 FR 10581 

(February 14, 2013). 

For the reasons stated in the notice of 

intent, we have determined that 

establishing the Rail Vehicles Access 

Advisory Committee (committee) is 

necessary and in the public interest. We 

have appointed the following 23 

organizations as members to the 

Committee: 

• Alstom Transportation 

• American Council of the Blind 

• Association of Programs for Rural 

Independent Living 

• Bombardier Transportation 

• California Department of 

Transportation, Division of Rail 

• Center for Inclusive Design and 

Environmental Access 

• Community Transportation 

Association of America 

• Disability Rights Education & Defense 

Fund 

• Hearing Access Program 

• International Centre for Accessible 

Transportation 

• Maryland Transit Administration 

• Metra & Northeast Illinois Regional 

Commuter Railroad Corporation 

• National Association of the Deaf 

• National Association of Railroad 

Passengers 

• National Council on Independent 

Living 

• National Disability Rights Network 

• National Railroad Passenger 

Corporation (Amtrak) 

• Parsons Brinckerhoff 

• RailPlan International 

• Ricon Corporation 

• South West Transit Association 

• Talgo, Inc. 

• United Spinal Association 

The Federal Railroad Administration 

will serve as an ex officio member. 

We regret being unable to 

accommodate all requests for 

membership on the committee. It was 

necessary to limit membership to 

maintain balance among members 

representing different interests such as 

transportation vehicle manufacturers, 

transportation providers which operate 

fixed guideway systems, disability 

organizations, and other stakeholder 

organizations affected by the guidelines. 

The committee membership identified 

above provides representation for the 

interests affected by the issues to be 

discussed. 

Additional committee members may 

be added to achieve balance of points of 

view among committee membership. 

Additional committee members may 

only be added during the first meeting 

of the committee. A three-quarters vote 

of the committee and concurrence by 

the Chairperson of the Access Board is 

required. 

A notice of the first meeting dates will 

be published in the Federal Register 

after consulting with the committee 

members. Decisions with respect to 

future meetings will be made at the first 

meeting and from time to time 

thereafter. Meetings will be held at the 

Access Board’s offices, 1331 F Street 

NW., Suite 800, Washington, DC 20004. 

Committee meetings will be open to 

the public and interested persons can 

attend the meetings and communicate 

their views. Members of the public will 

have opportunities to address the 

committee on issues of interest to them 

during public comment periods 

scheduled on each day of the meeting. 

Members of groups or individuals who 

are not members of the committee may 

also have the opportunity to participate 

in subcommittees of the committee if 

subcommittees are formed. 

The meetings will be accessible to 

persons with disabilities. An assistive 

listening system, Communication 

Access Realtime Translation (CART), 

and sign language interpreters will be 

provided. Persons attending the 

meetings are requested to refrain from 

using perfume, cologne, and other 

fragrances for the comfort of other 

participants (see www.access-board.gov/ 

about/policies/fragrance.htm for more 

information).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the 

Final Rules section of this Federal 

Register, EPA is approving the State’s 

SIP submittal as a direct final rule 

without prior proposal because the 

Agency views this as a noncontroversial 

submittal and anticipates no adverse 

comments. A detailed rationale for the 

approval is set forth in the direct final 

rule. If no adverse comments are 

received in response to this rule, no 

further activity is contemplated. If EPA 

receives adverse comments, the direct 

final rule will be withdrawn and all 

public comments received will be 

addressed in a subsequent final rule 

based on this proposed rule. EPA will 

not institute a second comment period. 

Any parties interested in commenting 

on this action should do so at this time. 

Please note that if EPA receives adverse 

comment on an amendment, paragraph, 

or section of this rule and if that 

provision may be severed from the 

remainder of the rule, EPA may adopt 

as final those provisions of the rule that 

are not the subject of an adverse 

comment. For additional information, 

see the direct final rule which is located 

in the Rules section of this Federal 

Register.

Promulgation of State Implementation 

Plan Revisions; Infrastructure 

Requirements for the 1997 and 2006 

PM2.5 National Ambient Air Quality 

Standards; Prevention of Significant 

Deterioration Requirements for PM2.5

Increments and Major and Minor 

Source Baseline Dates; Colorado 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Proposed rule. 

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve 

the State Implementation Plan (SIP) 

submissions from the State of Colorado 

to demonstrate that the SIP meets the 

infrastructure requirements of the Clean 

Air Act (CAA) for the National Ambient 

Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) 

promulgated for particulate matter less 

than or equal to 2.5 micrometers (mm) in 

diameter (PM2.5) on July 18, 1997 and on 

October 17, 2006. The CAA requires that 

each state, after a new or revised 

NAAQS is promulgated, review their 

SIP to ensure that they meet the 

requirements of the ‘‘infrastructure 

elements’’ necessary to implement the 

new or revised NAAQS. Colorado 

submitted certifications of its 

infrastructure SIP for the 1997 and the 

2006 PM2.5 NAAQS on April 4, 2008 

and on June 4, 2010, respectively. 

Colorado also submitted revisions to 

Regulation 3 of the Air Quality Control 

Commission permitting requirements 

for the Prevention of Significant 

Deterioration (PSD) program on May 11, 

2012 and May 13, 2013 that incorporate 

the required elements of the 2008 PM2.5

Implementation Rule and the 2010 

PM2.5 Increment Rule. EPA proposes to 

approve portions of these two SIP 

revisions that bring Colorado’s PSD 

regulations up to date for regulated 

pollutants. EPA does not propose to act 

on the portions of the submission for the 

2006 PM2.5 NAAQS that are intended to 

meet requirements related to interstate 

transport of air pollution. EPA will act 

on the remainder of the submissions in 

a separate action.

Instructions: Direct your comments to 

Docket ID No. EPA–R08–OAR–2009– 

0810. EPA’s policy is that all comments 

received will be included in the public 

docket without change and may be 

made available online at 

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 www.regulations.gov 

or email. The 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 email 

comment directly to EPA, without going 

through www.regulations.gov your email 

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, 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 http://
