policy.’’ A lead agency request to EPA 

to reduce time periods or another 

Federal agency (not the lead agency) 

request to formally extend a time period 

should be submitted in writing to the 

Director, Office of Federal Activities, 

and outline the reasons for the request. 

These requests can be submitted by 

email to: EISfiling@epa.gov. EPA will 

accept telephone requests; however, 

agencies should follow up such requests 

in writing so that the documentation 

supporting the decision is complete. A 

meeting to discuss the consequences for 

the project and any decision to change 

time periods may be necessary. For this 

reason, EPA asks that it be made aware 

of any intent to submit requests of this 

type as early as possible in the NEPA 

process. This is to prevent the 

possibility of the time frame for the 

decision on the time period 

modification from interfering with the 

lead agency’s schedule for the EIS. EPA 

will notify CEQ of any reduction or 

extension granted. 

6. Retention 

Filed EISs are retained in the e-NEPA 

Filing system for two years. After two 

years the EISs are sent to the National 

Records Center. After a total of twenty 

(20) years the EISs are transferred to the 

National Archives Records 

Administration (NARA). 

Please note that EPA maintains a Web 

site that will make available copies of 

the filed EISs to the public. The 

retention schedule does not affect the 

availability of these electronic copies.

paper copies or CDs of EISs for filing

the need to submit paper or CD copies

public review and comment. To begin 

using e-NEPA, you must first register 

with EPA’s electronic reporting site—
