Proposed Settlement, Clean Air Act

Citizen Suit

AGENCY: Environmental Protection

ACTION: Notice of proposed consent

decree; request for public comment.

SUMMARY: In accordance with section

113(g) of the Clean Air Act, as amended

(‘‘Act’’), 42 U.S.C. 7413(g), notice is

hereby given of a proposed consent

decree which was lodged with the

United States District Court for the

Northern District of California by the

United States Environmental Protection

Agency (‘‘EPA’’) on April 5, 2001 to

address a lawsuit filed by the Bayview

Hunters Point Community Advocates,

Communities for a Better Environment,

Latino Issues Forum, Sierra Club,

Transportation Solutions Defense and

Education Fund, Urban Habitat

Program, a Project of the Tides Center,

and Our Children’s Earth Foundation.

This lawsuit, which was filed pursuant

to section 304(a) of the Act, 42 U.S.C.

7604(a), addresses EPA’s alleged failure

to meet a mandatory deadline under

section 110(k) of the Act, 42 U.S.C.

7410(k), to take final action to approve

or disapprove the 1999 San Francisco

Bay Area Ozone Attainment Plan.

Bayview Hunters Point Community

Advocates et. al. v. EPA, Civil No. C–

01–0050 THE (N.D. Cal.).

DATES: Written comments on the

proposed consent decree must be

received by May 31, 2001.

ADDRESSES: Written comments should

be sent to Jan Taradash, Office of

Regional Counsel, U.S. Environmental

Protection Agency Region 9, 75

Hawthorne Street, San Francisco, CA

94105. Copies of the proposed consent

decree are available from Jan Taber,

(415) 744–1341.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Clean

Air Act requires EPA to take action to

approve or disapprove a State

implementation plan revision within 12

months of a determination by the

Administrator that such revision is

complete. See section 110(k)(1)–(4), 42

U.S.C. 7410(k)(1)–(4). On August 13,

1999, the California Air Resources

Board submitted to EPA the 1999 San

Francisco Bay Area Ozone Attainment

Plan (‘‘1999 Plan’’) as a proposed

revision to the California State

Implementation Plan. EPA found the

1999 Plan to be complete pursuant to

section 110(k)(1)(B), 42 U.S.C.

7410(k)(1)(B), on October 28, 1999. On

March 30, 2001, EPA published a

proposed rule on the plan. 66 FR 17379.

The proposed consent decree provides

that the Administrator or her delegatee

shall sign no later than August 28, 2001,

a notice for publication in the Federal

Register taking final action pursuant to

section 110(k) of the Act, 42 U.S.C.

7410(k), and shall submit the notice by

September 4, 2001, to the Office of the

Federal Register for publication.

For a period of thirty (30) days following

the date of publication of this notice, EPA

will receive written comments relating to the

proposed consent decree from persons who

were not named as parties to the litigation in

question. EPA or the Department of Justice

may withhold or withdraw consent to the

proposed consent decree if the comments

disclose facts or circumstances that indicate

that such consent is inappropriate, improper,

inadequate, or inconsistent with the

requirements of the Act. Unless EPA or the

Department of Justice determines, following

the comment period, that consent is

inappropriate, the final consent decree will

then be executed by the parties.
