number of means are available to make this showing, including the visible signal indication mentioned above.

We are limiting this determination to the 2007

– 2009 model years for two reasons. First, we believe that the problem of redesigning the covered vehicles to accommodate DPFs, though a matter of technological necessity, arises largely from the time remaining before 2007, which precludes manufacturers performing an extensive redesign of these space-constrained vehicles to accommodate the DPFs. Given more time, the somewhat larger DPFs needed to achieve 150,000 mile cleaning intervals could be accommodated in vehicle designs without compromising mission objectives.

Second, the compliance strategies being chosen by the engine manufacturers generally entail a two step approach to meeting the new NO X standards, such that NO X aftertreatment devices will not be employed until 2010, and engine/vehicle designs will remain stable through the 2007

– 2009 phase-in period. Although the technology choices for 2010 NO X control have not yet been made, we think it likely that new exhaust system space requirements will be added to those entailed by the use of DPFs in 2007. Given that three additional years of leadtime are available before 2010, and that adjusting the DPF cleaning interval can contribute, at best, only modest relief to these space constraint problems, we expect manufacturers to rely on broader vehicle redesigns rather than on shorter cleaning intervals to resolve any such problems. Should that process identify applications in which shorter DPF cleaning intervals are still technologically necessary for 2010 and later heavy-duty vehicles, we would expect manufacturers to take this up with us in a timely manner.

**SUMMARY :**  Under the Federal Advisory Committee Act, P.L. 92463, EPA gives notice of a meeting of the Good Neighbor Environmental Board. The Board meets three times each calendar year at different locations along the U.S.-Mexico border and in Washington, DC. It was created by the Enterprise for the Americas Initiative Act of 1992. An Executive Order delegates implementing authority to the Administrator of EPA. The Board is responsible for providing advice to the President and the Congress on environmental and infrastructure issues and needs within the States contiguous to Mexico in order to improve the quality of life of persons residing on the United States side of the border. The statute calls for the Board to have representatives from U.S. Government agencies; the governments of the States of Arizona, California, New Mexico and Texas; and private organizations with expertise on environmental and infrastructure problems along the southwest border. The purpose of the meeting is to discuss the recommendations of the Board ’ s 9th Report on Air Quality and Transportation and Cultural and Natural Resources. The Board will also hear from speakers about the topic of its next report: Balancing Border Security and Environmental Protection. A copy of the meeting agenda will be posted at http://www.epa.gov/ocem/gneb.
