however, manufacturers and importers 

may routinely request EPA to make such 

determination to ensure that their 

determination does not differ from 

EPA's. Only needed information such as 

engine type, horsepower rating, 

intended usage, etc., is requested to 

make an exclusion determination. 

Responses to this collection are 

voluntary. The information is collected 

by the Engine Compliance Programs 

Group, Engine Programs and

Notice of Availability; Alternatives for 

New Source Review Applicability for 

Major Modifications Solicitation of 

Comment 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice of availability; extension 

of comment period. 

SUMMARY: The EPA is hereby extending 

by 45 days, the closing date of the 

public comment period regarding EPA's 

notice of availability published July 24, 

1998 at 63 FR 39857. The original 

comment period was to close on August 

24, 1998. The new closing date will be 

October 8, 1998. The EPA is soliciting 

comments on a specific alternative for 

determining the applicability of new 

source review (NSR) to modifications of 

major stationary sources under the 

prevention of significant deterioration 

and the nonattainment provisions of the 

Clean Air Act. This alternative would 

allow any source to legally avoid major 

NSR for a physical or operational 

change to an existing emissions unit by 

taking an enforceable temporary limit 

on an emissions unit from that unit for 

a period of at least 10 years after the 

change. In addition, the Agency is 

seeking comment upon when and under 

what circumstances permitting 

authorities should have to review the 

emissions level set under a plantwide 

applicability limitation (PAL) for any 

source. Industry groups have asked for 

an extension due to the complex issues 

addressed by the notice of availability. 

All comments received by EPA on or 

prior to October 8, 1998 will be 

considered in the development of final 

regulations. 

DATES: Comments. All comments 

regarding EPA's notice of availability 

issued on July 24, 1998 must be
