SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Additional Information About the 

Proposed Settlement Agreement 

The proposed settlement agreement 

would resolve a lawsuit seeking to 

overturn EPA’s final action to approve 

SIP revisions submitted by California to 

provide for attainment of the 1997 8- 

hour ozone national ambient air quality 

standard in the South Coast. 77 FR 

12674 (March 1, 2012). The proposed 

settlement agreement requires that no 

later than August 13, 2014, EPA shall 

sign a notice or notices of the Agency’s 

final action or actions under Section 


emcdonald on DSK67QTVN1PROD with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 139 / Friday, July 19, 2013 / Notices 43201 

1Four of the five Petitioners have also noticed an 

appeal from dismissal of Physicians for Social 

Responsibility—Los Angeles v. EPA, No. 2:11–cv– 

05885–GW–SS, in the United States District Court 

for the Central District of California, currently 

docketed in the Ninth Circuit as Case No. 12–56175. 

Under the proposed settlement agreement, the four 

petitioners who are appellants in that case shall 

dismiss Physicians for Social Responsibility—Los 

Angeles v. EPA, No. 12–56175, upon receipt of 

written notice from EPA that the proposed 

settlement agreement is final. 

110(k) of the CAA on certain SIP 

revisions submitted by California on 

February 13, 2013, including a new 

attainment demonstration plan for the 1- 

hour ozone standard in the South Coast 

and new demonstrations intended to 

comply with Section 182(d)(1)(A) of the 

CAA, 42 U.S.C. 7511a(d)(1)(A), for the 

1-hour ozone and 1997 8-hour ozone 

standards. Thereafter, EPA shall send 

the notice(s) to the Office of the Federal 

Register for review and publication. 

After EPA fulfills its obligations under 

the agreement, the Petitioners shall 

dismiss this matter, but Petitioners 

reserve any rights they may have to 

challenge EPA final action or actions on 

the above described SIP revisions.1 If 

EPA does not take action by the 

deadline, then Petitioners’ sole remedy 

under the proposed agreement shall be 

the right to request that the Ninth 

Circuit lift the stay of proceedings and 

establish a schedule for briefing and oral 

argument. 

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 

settlement agreement 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 settlement agreement 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 settlement 

agreement should be withdrawn, the 

terms of the agreement will be affirmed. 

II. Additional Information About 

Commenting on the Proposed 

Settlement Agreement 

A. How can I get a copy of the 

settlement agreement? 

The official public docket for this 

action (identified by Docket ID No. 

EPA–HQ–OGC–2013–0484) contains a 

copy of the proposed settlement 

agreement. 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.
