SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Additional Information About the 

Proposed Consent Decree 

The proposed consent decree would 

resolve a lawsuit filed by Kentucky 

Environmental Foundation seeking to 

compel the Agency to take final action 

under sections 110(k)(2) and (3) of the 

CAA, 42 U.S.C. 7410(k)(2) and (3), on 

the State of Kentucky’s State 

Implementation Plan (SIP) submittals 

dated December 3, 2008. Specifically, 

the lawsuit seeks to compel the Agency 

to take final action, pursuant to section 

110(k) of the CAA, 42 U.S.C. 7410(k), on 

the 1997 P.M.2.5 nonattainment area 

requirements, including the attainment 

demonstrations, contingency measures, 

emissions inventories, and reasonably 

mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES

Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 49 / Tuesday, March 13, 2012 / Notices 14785 

available control measures/reasonably 

available control technology 

requirements in the CincinnatiHamilton SIP and the Louisville SIP. 

On March 9, 2011, and September 29, 

2011, respectively, EPA determined that 

the Cincinnati-Hamilton and the 

Louisville areas had attained the 1997 

annual PM2.5 NAAQS. See 76 FR 12860; 

76 FR 60373. On September 30, 2011, 

the State of Kentucky withdrew its 

previously submitted attainment 

demonstrations, contingency measures, 

and reasonably available control 

measures for the Cincinnati-Hamilton 

SIP and the Louisville SIP but did not 

withdraw any portions of its submittals 

for the Cincinnati-Hamilton SIP and the 

Louisville SIP that pertain to emissions 

inventories. On December 15, 2011, EPA 

approved the emissions inventory in the 

Cincinnati-Hamilton SIP. See 76 FR 

77903. 

The proposed consent decree requires 

that, no later than October 1, 2012, the 

appropriate EPA official shall sign a 

notice of final rulemaking approving, 

disapproving, or approving in part and 

disapproving in part the emissions 

inventory in the Louisville SIP. In 

addition, the proposed consent decree 

requires that, following signature, EPA 

shall expeditiously deliver the notice to 

the Office of the Federal Register for 

publication in the Federal Register and 

shall thereafter provide a copy of the 

notice to Plaintiff within ten (10) days. 

After EPA fulfills its obligations under 

the proposed consent decree, the 

consent decree may be terminated. 

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 were 

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 proposed 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–2012–0190) 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.
