Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 23 / Thursday, February 4, 2010 / Proposed Rules 5715 

j. Executive Order 12898: Federal 

Actions To Address Environmental 

Justice in Minority Populations and Low 

Income Populations 

Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629) 

establishes federal executive policy on 

environmental justice. Its main 

provision directs federal agencies, to the 

greatest extent practicable and 

permitted by law, to make 

environmental justice part of their 

mission by identifying and addressing, 

as appropriate, disproportionately high 

and adverse human health or 

environmental effects of their programs, 

policies, and activities on minority 

populations and low-income 

populations in the United States. EPA 

determined that this proposed rule will 

not have disproportionately high and 

adverse human health or environmental 

effects on minority or low-income 

populations because it does not affect 

the level of protection provided to 

human health or the environment. EPA 

has assessed the overall protectiveness 

of designating the disposal Sites against 

the criteria established pursuant to the 

MPRSA to ensure that any adverse 

impact to the environment will be 

mitigated to the greatest extent 

practicable. We welcome comments on 

this proposed action related to this 

Executive Order. 

List of Subjects in 40 CFR Part 228 

Environmental protection, Water 

pollution control. 

Authority: This action is issued under the 

authority of Section 102 of the Marine 

Protection, Research, and Sanctuaries Act, as

Dated: January 25, 2010.

Responsibility Requirements Under 

CERCLA Section 108(b) 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Advance notice of proposed 

rulemaking (ANPRM); extension of 

comment period and correction of 

docket identification number. 

SUMMARY: EPA is extending, until April 

6, 2010, the comment period for the 

Advance Notice of Proposed 

Rulemaking (ANPRM) published in the 

Federal Register on January 6, 2010. In 

the ANPRM, the Agency identified the 

classes of facilities within three 

industries—the Chemical 

Manufacturing industry (NAICS 325), 

the Petroleum and Coal Products 

Manufacturing industry (NAICS 324), 

and the Electric Power Generation, 

Transmission, and Distribution industry 

(NAICS 2211)—as those for which the 

Agency plans to develop, as necessary, 

proposed regulations identifying 

appropriate financial responsibility 

requirements under section 108(b) of the 

Comprehensive Environmental 

Response, Compensation, and Liability 

Act (CERCLA). In addition, the Agency 

identified the Waste Management and 

Remediation Services industry (NAICS 

562), the Wood Product Manufacturing 

industry (NAICS 321), the Fabricated 

Metal Product Manufacturing industry 

(NAICS 332), the Electronics and 

Electrical Equipment Manufacturing 

industry (NAICS 334 and 335), as well 

as facilities engaged in the recycling of 

materials containing CERCLA hazardous 

substances as requiring further study 

before EPA decides whether to begin the 

regulatory development process. EPA 

also wants to clarify the proper Docket 

Identification Number for the January 

2010 ANPRM. 

DATES: Submit comments on or before 

April 6, 2010. 

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, 

identified by Docket ID No. EPA–HQ–

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On 

January 6, 2010, the Agency published 

in the Federal Register (75 FR 816) an 

Advance Notice of Proposed 

Rulemaking (ANPRM) that identified 

the classes of facilities within three 

industries—the Chemical 

Manufacturing industry (NAICS 325), 

the Petroleum and Coal Products 

Manufacturing industry (NAICS 324), 

and the Electric Power Generation, 

Transmission, and Distribution industry 

(NAICS 2211)—as those for which the 

Agency plans to develop, as necessary, 

proposed regulations identifying 

appropriate financial responsibility 

requirements under section 108(b) of the 

Comprehensive Environmental 

Response, Compensation, and Liability 

Act (CERCLA). In addition, the Agency 

identified the Waste Management and 

Remediation Services industry (NAICS 

562), the Wood Product Manufacturing 

industry (NAICS 321), the Fabricated 

Metal Product Manufacturing industry 

(NAICS 332), the Electronics and 

Electrical Equipment Manufacturing 

industry (NAICS 334 and 335), as well 

as facilities engaged in the recycling of 

materials containing CERCLA hazardous 

substances as requiring further study 

before EPA decides whether to begin the 

regulatory development process. 

Following publication of the ANPRM, 

several members of the public requested 

that the Agency extend the comment 

period. The Agency received extension 

requests for 30 days, 45 days, and 60 

days. In response to these requests, the 

Agency is extending the comment 

period for 60 days, until April 6, 2010. 

Members of the public also will be able 

to provide additional comments to EPA 

after it publishes any proposed rules. 

In addition, the Agency wants to 

clarify the proper Docket Identification 

Number (Docket ID No.) associated with 

the January 2010 ANPRM. The heading 

of the ANPRM included an incorrect 

Docket Identification Number. 

Subsequent references to the docket, 

within the text of the ANPRM, were 

correct; the correct Docket ID No. (EPA– 

HQ–SFUND–2009–0834) is included in 

this extension notice of the comment 

period. 

Dated: January 29, 2010.

Recovery.
