Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plan: 
Kentucky; Approval Section 110(a)(1) Maintenance Plan for the 1997 8-
Hour Ozone Standard for the Paducah Area; Limited Reopening of Comment 
Period

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule; limited reopening of the comment period.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: EPA is announcing a 30-day reopening of the public comment 
period for the proposed rule entitled ``Approval and Promulgation of 
Air Quality Implementation Plan: Kentucky; Approval Section 110(a)(1) 
Maintenance Plan for the 1997 8-Hour Ozone Standard for the Paducah 
Area,'' for the purpose of limited public review and comment of 
supplemental information that was provided by the Commonwealth of 
Kentucky on July 15, 2009, in support of the Paducah Area 110(a)(1) 
maintenance plan. The Paducah, KY Area consists of Marshall and a 
portion of Livingston Counties. The proposed rule was initially 
published in the Federal Register on January 4, 2010. The reason for 
this limited reopening of the comment period is that EPA has learned 
that supplemental information relating to projected emissions for the 
Paducah Area that was referenced in the proposed rulemaking January 4, 
2010 (75 FR 97) was inadvertently omitted from the electronic docket 
when that proposed rulemaking was published. EPA has since made that 
information available in the electronic docket and wants to ensure an 
opportunity for the public to comment on that information. The July 15, 
2009 supplemental information can be viewed online at http://www.regulations.gov using docket ID No. EPA-R04-OAR-2007-1186-0043.
    Thus, EPA is reopening the comment period for an additional thirty 
days, for the limited purpose of providing an opportunity for public 
comment on the supplemental information added to the docket after 
publication of the proposed rulemaking.

DATES: The comment period for the proposed rule published on January 4, 
2010 (75 FR 97), is reopened. Comments must be received on or before 
March 29, 2010.

    Instructions: Direct your comments to Docket ID No. ``EPA-R04-OAR-
2007-1186.'' EPA's policy is that all comments received will be 
included in the public docket without change and may be made available 
online at http://www.regulations.gov, including any personal 
information provided, unless the comment includes information claimed 
to be Confidential Business Information (CBI) or other information 
whose disclosure is restricted by statute. Do not submit through http://www.regulations.gov or e-mail, information that you consider to be CBI 
or otherwise protected. The http://www.regulations.gov Web site is an 
``anonymous access'' system, which means EPA will not know your 
identity or contact information unless you provide it in the body of 
your comment. If you send an e-mail comment directly to EPA without 
going through http://www.regulations.gov, your e-mail address will be 
automatically captured and included as part of the comment that is 
placed in the public docket and made available on the Internet. If you 
submit an electronic comment, EPA recommends that you include your name 
and other contact information in the body of your comment and with any 
disk or CD-ROM you submit. If EPA cannot read your comment due to 
technical difficulties and cannot contact you for clarification, EPA 
may not be able to consider your comment. Electronic files should avoid 
the use of special characters, any form of encryption, and be free of 
any defects or viruses. For additional information about EPA's public 
docket, visit the EPA Docket Center homepage at http://www.epa.gov/epahome/dockets.htm.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The proposed rule was signed by the Acting 
Regional Administrator on December 22, 2009, and published in the 
Federal Register on January 4, 2010 (75 FR 97). The comment period for 
this proposed action closed on February 3, 2010. EPA did not receive 
any adverse comments during this public comment period. However, EPA 
noticed an inadvertent omission of the July 15, 2009, supplement that 
Kentucky provided from the electronic docket at http://www.regulations.gov. Since EPA referenced this supplement in the 
January 4, 2010, proposed rulemaking, EPA is reopening the comment 
period for this proposed action for the limited purpose of allowing the 
public the opportunity to review and consider this supplemental 
information in regards to EPA's proposed rulemaking. The July 15, 2009, 
supplement (which was included in the electronic docket on

[[Page 8575]]

February 4, 2010) contains updated emissions inventory projections for 
both the Paducah and Owensboro Areas.

    Dated: February 12, 2010.
J. Scott Gordon,
Acting Regional Administrator, Region 4.
