AGENCY: Environmental Protection

ACTION: Notice of availability. 

SUMMARY: EPA previously announced

discharges incidental to the normal 

operation of vessels, also referred to as 

the Vessel General Permit (VGP), in the 

Federal Register on December 29, 2008

on December 18, 2008 and became 

effective on December 19, 2008. EPA 

subsequently noticed final issuance of 

the VGP for the states of Hawaii and 

Alaska, after receipt of a certification 

pursuant to section 401 of the Clean 

Water Act (CWA) from Hawaii and a 

final response on the national 

consistency determination required by 

section 307(c)(1) of the Coastal Zone 

Management Act (CZMA) from Alaska, 

which was signed on February 2, 2009, 

with an effective date of February 6, 

2009. Today’s notice of availability 

provides notice of EPA’s deletion of 

specific State section 401 certification 

conditions from Part 6 of the VGP for 

the States of New Jersey, Illinois, and 

California.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

A. General Information 

Pursuant to Clean Water Act section 

401(a) and EPA’s implementing 

regulations, EPA may not issue a NPDES 

permit (including the VGP) until the 

appropriate State certifications have 

been granted or waived. 40 CFR 

124.53(a). Through the certification 

process, States were given the 

opportunity, before the VGP was issued, 

to add conditions to the permit they 

believe are necessary to ensure that the 

permit complies with the Clean Water 

Act and other appropriate requirements 

of State law, including State water 

quality standards. 

New Jersey Department of 

Environmental Protection issued its 

section 401 certification for the VGP on 

September 24, 2008, and modified its 

certification on February 2, 2009. This 

modification deleted certification 

conditions #1 and #2. Illinois 

Environmental Protection Agency 

issued its section 401 certification for 

the VGP on November 21, 2008, and 

modified its certification on February 4, 

2009. This modification deleted 

certification condition #9. California 

State Water Resources Control Board 

issued its section 401 certification for 

the VGP on December 17, 2008, and 

modified its certification on February 4, 

2009. This modification deleted 

certification conditions #1, #2, #5, #7, 

#8, #9, #10, #13, #14, #15, and 7.1 and 

7.2 from certification condition #16 and 

Attachments 4, 5, and 6 from 

certification condition #17. Pursuant to 

EPA’s implementing regulations at 40 

CFR 124.55(b), EPA may, at the request 

of a permittee, modify the VGP based on 

a modified certification received after 

final agency action on the permit ‘‘only 

to the extent necessary to delete any 

conditions based on a condition in a 

certification invalidated by a court of 

competent jurisdiction or by an 

appropriate State board or agency.’’ 40 

CFR 124.55(b). In accordance with this 

provision, EPA has removed these 

deleted certification conditions from the 

VGP.1 EPA’s letters notifying the 

requesting permittees that their requests 

to delete the permit conditions were 

granted, and a copy of the VGP 

reflecting those deletions, can be found 

in the docket for the VGP (Docket ID No. 

EPA–HQ–OW–2008–0055).2
