Underground Injection Control 

Program; Hazardous Waste Injection 

Restrictions; Petition for Exemption 

Reissuance—Class I Hazardous Waste 

Injection; DuPont Pontchartrain, 

LaPlace, Louisiana 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice of a final decision on a 

no migration petition reissuance. 

SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that a 

reissuance of an exemption to the land 

disposal Restrictions, under the 1984 

Hazardous and Solid Waste 

Amendments to the Resource 

Conservation and Recovery Act, has 

been granted to DuPont for three Class 

I hazardous injection wells located at 

their Pontchartrain site located in 

LaPlace, Louisiana. The company has 

adequately demonstrated to the 

satisfaction of the Environmental 

Protection Agency by the petition 

reissuance application and supporting 

documentation that, to a reasonable 

degree of certainty, there will be no 

migration of hazardous constituents 

from the injection zone for as long as the 

waste remains hazardous. This final 

decision allows the continued 

underground injection by DuPont, of the 

specific restricted hazardous wastes 

identified in this exemption reissuance, 

into Class I hazardous waste injection 

Wells 4, 7 and 8 until December 31, 

2050, unless EPA moves to terminate 

this exemption. Additional conditions 

included in this final decision may be 

reviewed by contacting the Region 6 

Ground Water/UIC Section. A public 

notice was issued August 19, 2015, and 

the public comment period closed on 

October 5, 2015. No comments were 

received. This decision constitutes final 

Agency action and there is no 

Administrative appeal. This decision 

may be reviewed/appealed in 

compliance with the Administrative 

Procedure Act. 

DATES: This action is effective as of 

October 22, 2015.

Release of Draft Integrated Review 

Plan for the Secondary National 

Ambient Air Quality Standard for 

Oxides of Nitrogen and Oxides of 

Sulfur 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice of availability and public 

comment period. 

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA) is announcing the

provide any technical information and/ 

or data that you used. 

• If you estimate potential costs or 

burdens, explain how you arrived at 

your estimate in sufficient detail to 

allow for it to be reproduced. 

• Provide specific examples to 

illustrate your concerns, and suggest 

alternatives.

deadline identified. 

II. Information Specific to This 

Document 

Two sections of the Clean Air Act 

(CAA) govern the establishment and 

revision of the NAAQS. Section 108 (42 

U.S.C. 7408) directs the Administrator 

to identify and list certain air pollutants 

and then to issue air quality criteria for 

those pollutants. The Administrator is 

to list those air pollutants that in her 

‘‘judgment, cause or contribute to air 

pollution which may reasonably be 

anticipated to endanger public health or 

welfare;’’ ‘‘the presence of which in the 

ambient air results from numerous or 

diverse mobile or stationary sources;’’ 

and ‘‘for which . . . [the Administrator] 

plans to issue air quality criteria . . . .’’ 

Air quality criteria are intended to 

‘‘accurately reflect the latest scientific 

knowledge useful in indicating the kind 

and extent of all identifiable effects on 

public health or welfare which may be 

expected from the presence of [a] 

pollutant in the ambient air . . .’’ 42 

U.S.C. 7408(b). Under section 109 (42 

U.S.C. 7409), the EPA establishes 

primary (health-based) and secondary 

(welfare-based) NAAQS for pollutants 

for which air quality criteria are issued. 

Section 109(d) requires periodic review 

and, if appropriate, revision of existing 

air quality criteria. The revised air 

quality criteria reflect advances in 

scientific knowledge on the effects of 

the pollutant on public health or 

welfare. The EPA is also required to 

periodically review and, if appropriate, 

revise the NAAQS based on the revised 

criteria. Section 109(d)(2) requires that 

an independent scientific review 

committee ‘‘shall complete a review of 

the criteria . . . and the national 

primary and secondary ambient air 

quality standards . . . and shall 

recommend to the Administrator any 

new . . . standards and revisions of 

existing criteria and standards as may be 

appropriate . . . .’’ Since the early 

1980’s, this independent review 

function has been performed by the 

Clean Air Scientific Advisory 

Committee (CASAC). 

Presently, the EPA is reviewing the 

secondary NAAQS for NOX/SOX.1 The 

draft document, announced today, has 

been developed as part of the planning 

phase for the review. This phase began 

with a science policy workshop to 

identify issues and questions to frame 

the review.2 Drawing from the 

workshop discussions, this draft IRP 

was prepared jointly by EPA’s National 

Center for Environmental Assessment, 

within the Office of Research and 

Development, and EPA’s Office of Air 

Quality Planning and Standards, within 

the Office of Air and Radiation. The 

draft IRP will be reviewed by CASAC at 

a teleconference on December 1, 2015. 

The final IRP will include consideration 

of CASAC and public comments 

received on this draft IRP. This 

document also presents the current plan 

and specifies the schedule for the entire 

review, the process for conducting the 

review, and the key policy-relevant 

science issues that will guide the 

review.
