The southern boundary would match 

the southern boundary of South 

Timbalier blocks 29 and 28. 

The South Timbalier Anchorage East 

anchorage we are contemplating may 

also be represented may by drawing 

rhumb lines joining points at: 

Latitude Longitude 

29°2′0.492′′ N 90°20′3.299′′ W. 

29°2′0.492′′ N 90°15′0.287′′ W. 

28°57′13.895′′ N 90°15′0.287′′ W. 

28°57′13.895′′ N 90°20′3.299′′ W. 

We have also placed illustrations of 

the currently contemplated offshore 

anchorage grounds in the docket ( 

http://www.regulations.gov/

#!docketDetail;D=USCG-2014-1009). 

Look for a supporting document with 

‘‘Illustrations’’ in its title. 

In a letter to the National 

Oceanographic and Atmospheric 

Administration, the Coast Guard will 

request that the Office of Coast Survey 

ensure the suitability and safety of the 

contemplated anchorage grounds. 

Additionally, the Coast Guard is 

coordinating with the Bureau of Ocean 

Energy Management, the Bureau of 

Safety and Environmental Enforcement, 

and the State of Louisiana’s Department 

of Natural Resources to verify the 

location of existing pipeline corridors. 

The contemplated anchorage area is 

larger than the envisioned final 

anchorage. This advance notice of 

proposed rulemaking is intended to 

prompt discussion and gather input 

from the affected marine industries to 

determine the most appropriate 

anchorage within the contemplated 

area. 

E. Information Requested 

Public participation is requested to 

assist in determining the best way 

forward in developing a proposed 

rulemaking to establish these offshore 

anchorages. To aid us in developing a 

proposed rule, we seek any comments, 

whether positive or negative, including 

but not limited to the impacts anchorage 

areas may have on navigation safety and 

current vessel traffic in this area. 

Please submit any comments or 

concerns you may have in accordance 

with the ‘‘submitting comments’’ 

section above.

State of Tennessee Underground 

Injection Control (UIC) Program; 

Primacy Approval 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Proposed rule. 

SUMMARY: The U.S. Environmental 

Protection Agency (EPA) proposes to 

approve the State of Tennessee 

Underground Injection Control (UIC) 

Program for primacy to implement and 

enforce state regulations for all UIC 

injection wells located within the state, 

except for Class VI wells and all wells 

on Indian lands, as required by rule 

under the Safe Drinking Water Act 

(SDWA). The Agency determined that 

the state’s program is consistent with 

the provisions of the SDWA and is as 

stringent as all applicable federal 

regulations to prevent underground 

injection activities that endanger 

underground sources of drinking water. 

EPA requests public comment on this 

proposed rule and supporting 

documentation. In the ‘‘Rules and 

Regulations’’ section of this Federal 

Register, the Agency published EPA’s 

approval of the state’s program as a 

direct final rule without a prior 

proposed rule. If the Agency receives no 

adverse comment, EPA will not take 

further action on this proposed rule. 

DATES: Written comments must be 

received by May 6, 2015. 

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, 

identified by Docket ID No. EPA–HQ– 

OW–2011–0520, by one of the following 

methods, by mail to Water Docket, State 

of Tennessee, Underground Injection 

Control (UIC) Primacy, U.S. 

Environmental Protection Agency, 

Mailcode: 2822T, 1200 Pennsylvania

Comments may also be submitted

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Why is EPA issuing this proposed rule? 

EPA proposes to approve the State of 

Tennessee’s UIC Program primacy 

application for Class I, II, III, IV, and V 

injection wells located within the state 

(except all wells on Indian lands), as 

required by rule under the SDWA, to 

prevent underground injection activities 

that endanger underground sources of 

drinking water. Accordingly, the 

Agency proposes to codify the state’s 

program in the Code of Federal 

Regulations (CFR) at 40 CFR part 147. 

EPA will continue to administer the UIC 

Program for Class VI wells and wells on 

Indian lands, if any such lands exist in 

the state in the future. The Agency has 

published a direct final rule in the 

‘‘Rules and Regulations’’ section of 

today’s Federal Register, approving the 

state’s program because EPA views 

these actions as noncontroversial and 

anticipates no adverse comment. The 

Agency has provided reasons for the 

approval and additional supplementary 

information in the preamble to the 

direct final rule. If EPA receives no 

adverse comment, the Agency will not 

take further action on this proposed 

rule. If EPA receives adverse comment, 

the Agency will withdraw the direct 

final rule and it will not take effect. The 

Agency would then address all public 

comments in any subsequent final rule 

based on this proposed rule. The 

Agency does not intend to institute a 

second comment period on this action. 

Any parties interested in commenting 

must do so at this time. For further 

information, please contact the persons 

listed in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION

CONTACT section of this document.
