2013, requesting that the EPA object to the proposed CAA title V operating permit for Gateway issued by the BAAQMD, identified as Major Facility Review Permit, Facility #B8143. The Petitioner alleged that the permit was not consistent with CAA title V requirements because the EPA failed to obtain incidental take authorization and take other actions under the Endangered Species Act for ‘‘listed species affected by’’ the facility. The BAAQMD issued a final title V permit for Gateway on October 30, 2013.

On October 15, 2014, the EPA Administrator issued an Order denying the title V petition for Gateway. The Order explains EPA’s rationale for denying the petition.

Dated: October 29, 2014. Jared Blumenfeld, Regional Administrator, Region IX.

OPP is entrusted with responsibility to help ensure the safety of the American food supply, the education and protection from unreasonable risk of those who apply or are exposed to pesticides occupationally or through use of products, and general protection of the environment and special ecosystems from potential risks posed by pesticides.

The charter for EPA’s PPDC was established under FACA, Public Law 92–463 (5 U.S.C. Appendix), in September 1995, and has been renewed every 2 years since that time. PPDC’s charter was renewed October 25, 2013, for another 2-year period. The purpose of PPDC is to provide advice and recommendations to the EPA Administrator on issues associated with pesticide regulatory development and reform initiatives, evolving public policy and program implementation issues, and science issues associated with evaluating and reducing risks from use of pesticides. It is determined that PPDC is in the public interest in connection with the performance of duties imposed on the Agency by law. The following sectors are represented on the current PPDC: Environmental/public interest and animal rights groups; farm worker organizations; pesticide industry and trade associations; pesticide user, grower, and commodity groups; Federal and State/local/tribal governments; the general public; academia; and public health organizations.

Copies of the PPDC charter are filed with appropriate committees of Congress and the Library of Congress and are available upon request.

**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :**  EPA and NHTSA are sponsoring a technical workshop on December 10 and 11, 2014, at Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) in San Antonio, Texas. SwRI researchers will present technical work completed under the direction of EPA and NHTSAto assist in developing Phase 2 mediumand heavy-duty GHG and fuel efficiency standards.

This technical work includes testingconducted over-the-road and on heavyduty chassis dynamometers, powertrain test cells, and engine test cells. This work has been conducted to advance test procedure development and validate refinements that agencies have been considering for the greenhouse gasemissions model (GEM) used for heavyduty vehicle certification. Aerodynamic tractor testing via both coast-down and constant-speed test procedures will also be presented, in addition to results from recent heavy-duty engine and vehicle technology modeling. SwRI will also describe simulation studies to look at the potential fuel saving performance of numerous MD/HD engine and vehicle technologies.

This workshop will not include discussion of policy considerations such as Phase 2 program stringency or program structure. Rather, this workshop is an opportunity for interested stakeholders and individuals to learn more about recent EPA and NHTSA sponsored technical research, to engage directly with the SwRI researchers who have been conducting this work, and to provide initial feedback on work conducted to date.

All interested parties are welcome to attend. See http://epa.gov/otaq/climate/ regs-heavy-duty.htm for the agenda, schedule, and information regarding online registration. There is no registration fee.
