[[Page 12153]]

SUMMARY: On Thursday, January 4, 2007, the Environmental Protection 
Agency published a proposed rule entitled ``NPDES Permit Fee Incentive 
for Clean Water Act Section 106 Grants; Allotment Formula.'' Written 
comments on the proposed rulemaking were required to be submitted to 
EPA on or before March 5, 2007, (a 60-day public comment period). EPA 
has received several requests for additional time to submit comments on 
the proposed rule. Therefore, the public comment period is being 
reopened for an additional 60-day comment period.

DATES: Comments must be received on or before May 14, 2007.

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, identified by Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OW-
2006-0765 by one of the following methods:

    Instructions: Direct your comments to Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OW-2006-
0765. EPA's policy is that all comments received will be included in 
the public docket without change and may be made available online at 
http://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 e-mail. 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 e-mail comment directly to EPA without going through 
www.regulations.gov, your e-mail 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://www.epa.gov/epahome/dockets.htm.
    Docket: All documents in the docket are listed in the 
www.regulations.gov index. Although listed in the index, some 
information is not publicly available, e.g., CBI or other information 
whose disclosure is restricted by statute. Certain other material, such 
as copyrighted material, will be publicly available only in hard copy. 
Publicly available docket materials are available either electronically 
in http://www.regulations.gov or in hard copy at the Water Docket, EPA/
DC, EPA West, Room 3334, 1301 Constitution Ave., NW., Washington, DC.
