Date: 04/05/2011 11:20 AM Subject: Presentation materials for tomorrow's conference call on rulemakings related to the Utility GHG

Rulemaking Dear potential Small Entity Representatives, You have been selected to serve as a potential Small Entity Representative (SER) on EPA’s Small Busines s Advocac y Review (SBAR) Panel on the Utility GHG NSPS rulemaking. (The list of SERs is not finalized until the Panel is convened. Until that time, you are referred to as a "potential SER," but generally speaking everyo ne transitions from "potential SER" to "SER" at the convening date without the need to provide us with any further information. In fact, you probably won't notice the transition.) The SBAR Panel is composed of federal employees from the EPA, Small Business Administration, and Office of Ma nagement and Budget. Your role as a potential SER will be to provide advice and recommendations to the Panel via two meetings and written comments: **1) Panel Outreach Meeting** #1
-- This first meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, April 12 from 11:00 am to 1:0 0 pm (Eastern) in W ashington, DC. You have the option of attending in person, but you are not required to travel for this meeting; a toll
-free conference line will be provided. (If you were to choose only one meeting to attend in person, it would be the Panel Outreach Meeting (#2) and **not** this Panel me eting.) Please mark your calendars now; additional information and materials will be provided soon. The purpose of this meeting is to serve as an introduction to the rulemaking, describe your role as a SER, describe the types of information about the rulemaking that we're seeking from you, and solicit your initial advice and recommendations. **2) Panel Outreach Meeting** #2

– This second meeting will likely be Tuesday, April 26 from 1:00 pm to 4:00 pm (Eastern)

. It will be located in W ashington, DC, as well. You are not required to travel for this me eting either; a toll
-free conference line will be provided. But if you were to choose one of the two me etings to attend in person, this would be the appropriate m eeting. The purpose is to solicit your advice and recommendations on the regulatory information provided to you by the Panel. The Panel also seeks yo ur input on the potential impacts of the proposed rule on the entity or entities you are representing. **3 ) Written Comments** 

– Wewill ask you to provide written comments within two weeks of the second Panel Outreach Meeting. As a reminder, EPA is hosting a conference call for tomorrow, **Ap ril 6th from 1:00**  **- 2:30 pm**  eastern standard time. The **call in number is 1**  **- 866**  **- 299**  **- 3188, code: 202 566 2372** 

. Attached are the materials for tomorrow's presentations on EPA's Transport Rule and Toxics Rule.

Presentations on these three rules will be forwarded to you early next week, along with m ore information on serving as a Small Entity Representative (SER) to EPA's planned panel on the Utility GHG NSPS rulemaking.

- and Oil
-fired Electric Utility Steam Generating Units." EPA is conducting another outreach and requests your participation. As you're probably aware, EPA is under a settlement agreement that requires proposal of greenhouse gas (GHG) em issions standards for electric utility steam generating units (EGUs) by July 26, 2011. Although EPA is at this time unsure whether the proposed regulations for GHG emissions from EGUs would result in a significant economic impact on a substantial numbe r of small entities, the Agenc y wants to stay ahead of this issue and initiate outreach with potentially impacted small entities. Given the am ount of time between now and proposal, we want to get the outreach started quickly and would like to have more in teraction than we were able to have with respect to the Panel for the NESHAP for Coal
- and Oil
-fired EGUs. Specifically, EPA plans to propose new source performance standards (NSPS) for GHG emissions from new and modified fossil fuel
-fired EGUs and emissi on guidelines for GHG emissions from existing fossil fuel
-fired EGUs. The proposed regulations would apply to EGUs capable of combusting more than 250 mi llion British thermal units per hour (MMBtu/hr) heat input of fossil fuel. An “electric utility steam generating unit” is any steam electric generating unit that is constructed for the purpose of supplying more than one
- third of its potential electric output capacity and more than 25 megawatts electric (MW e) output to any utility power distribution s ys tem for sale. Fossil fuel means natural gas, petroleum, coal, and any form of solid, liquid, or gaseous fuel derived from such material for the purpose of creating useful heat. The regulations would not apply to natural gas combined cycle systems or station ary combustion turbines. The regulations would, however, apply to integrated gasification combined c yc le (IGCC, i.e, “coal gasification”) units. Weplan to schedule an informal conference call between EPA, the Small Business Administration (SBA), the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), and potential SERs either late next week (e.g., March 24 or 25) or early the week of March 28. This call would occur prior to formal outreach and its purpose would be to provide background on other recent actions affect ing EGUs (i.e., Transport Rule, Toxics Rule, 316(b) Rule).Thank you.
