I. General Information 

EPA is extending the public comment 

period for the draft Technical Guidance 

for Assessing Environmental Justice in 

Regulatory Analysis by 60 days. The 

public comment period will now close 

on September 6, 2013. EPA has been 

doing environmental justice 

assessments of its regulatory actions for 

years. This experience and body of work 

assessing regulatory actions provide the 

foundation for this draft guidance. This 

guidance begins to address the issue of 

how to analytically consider 

environmental justice in regulatory 

analyses. It provides a set of questions 

to guide analysts in evaluating potential 

environmental justice concerns in EPA 

rules, provides a set of 

recommendations and best practices for 

analyses, and defines key terms. No new 

risk assessment or socio-economic 

assessment methods are required, thus 

minimizing resource or analytical 

burdens. This guidance takes into 

account EPA’s past experience in 

integrating EJ into the rulemaking 

process and will enable EPA to conduct 

consistent, better analysis of regulations 

to inform the public and decision 

makers.

II. What should I consider as I prepare 

my comments for EPA? 

1. Submitting CBI. Do not submit this 

information to EPA through 

www.regulations.gov or email. Clearly 

mark the part or all of the information 

that you claim to be CBI. For CBI 

information in a disk or CD ROM that 

you mail to EPA, mark the outside of the 

disk or CD ROM as CBI and then 

identify electronically within the disk or 

CD ROM the specific information that is 

claimed as CBI). In addition to one 

complete version of the comment that 

includes information claimed as CBI, a 

copy of the comment that does not 

contain the information claimed as CBI 

must be submitted for inclusion in the 

public docket. Information so marked 

will not be disclosed except in 

accordance with procedures set forth in 

40 CFR part 2. 

2. Tips for Preparing Your Comments. 

When submitting comments, remember 

to: 

• Identify the rulemaking by docket 

number and other identifying 

information (subject heading, Federal 

Register date and page number). 

• Follow directions—The agency may 

ask you to respond to specific questions 

or organize comments by referencing a 

Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) part 

or section number. 

• Explain why you agree or disagree; 

suggest alternatives and substitute 

language for your requested changes. 

• Describe any assumptions and 

provide any technical information and/ 

or data 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. 

• Explain your views as clearly as 

possible, avoiding the use of profanity 

or personal threats. 

• Make sure to submit your 

comments by the comment period 

deadline identified.
