SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is hereby given that a petition has 
been received from the State of New York requesting a determination by 
the Regional Administrator, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency--
Region 2, pursuant to section 312(f)(3) of Public Law 92-500 as amended 
by Public Law 95-217 and Public Law 100-4, that adequate facilities for 
the safe and sanitary removal and treatment of sewage from all vessels 
are reasonably available for South Shore Estuary Reserve (SSER) and its 
harbors, bays and creeks within the following boundaries:

East Rockaway Inlet, approach to Reynolds Channel, flashing green buoy 
(N ``9'')
    N40[deg]-35.5'
    W73[deg]-44.9'
Jones Inlet, Jones Inlet red buoy (N ``8'')
    N40[deg]-35.2'

[[Page 31943]]

    W73[deg]-34.3'
Fire Island Inlet, Fire Island Inlet flashing red buoy (N ``10'')
    N40[deg]-37.5'
    W73[deg]-17.9'
Moriches Inlet, flashing red tower on east jetty terminus
    N40[deg]-45.8'
    W72[deg]-45.3'
Shinnecock Inlet, flashing green tower on west jetty terminus
    N40[deg]-50.2'
    W72[deg]-28.7'

    The SSER encompasses 110,720 acres of open water and intertidal 
area. The waterbodies included in the SSER are Shinnecock Bay (East and 
West), Quantuck Bay, Moriches Bay (East and West), Bellport Bay, 
Patchogue Bay, Nicoll Bay, Great South Bay (West, East and Great Cove), 
South Oyster Bay, East Bay Complex, Middle Bay Complex and Western 
South Shore Bay.
    New York has provided documentation indicating the SSER vessel 
population and the number of pumpouts for each embayment. Shinnecock 
Bay--East is serviced by 3 pumpouts and has a vessel population of 864 
(288 vessels per pumpout). Shinnecock Bay--West is serviced by 1pumpout 
and has a vessel population of 1841 (1841 vessels per pumpout). 
Quantuck Bay is serviced by 1 pumpout and has a vessel population of 
363 (363 vessels per pumpout). Moriches Bay--East is serviced by 2 
pumpouts and has a vessel population of 951 (476 vessels per pumpout). 
Moriches Bay--West is serviced by 5 pumpouts and has a vessel 
population of 1829 (366 vessels per pumpout). Bellport Bay is serviced 
by 2 pumpouts and has a vessel population of 336 (168 vessels per 
pumpout). Patchogue Bay is serviced by 11 pumpouts and has a vessel 
population of 2814 (256 vessels per pumpout). Nicoll Bay is serviced by 
6 pumpouts and has a vessel population of 1765 (294 vessels per 
pumpout). Great South Bay--East and Great Cove is serviced by 7 
pumpouts and has a vessel population of 1810 (259 vessels per pumpout). 
Great South Bay--West is serviced by 12 pumpouts and has a vessel 
population of 5066 (422 vessels per pumpout). South Oyster Bay is 
serviced by 5 pumpouts and has a vessel population of 1453 (291 vessels 
per pumpout). East Bay Complex is serviced by 4 pumpouts and has a 
vessel population of 747 (187 vessels per pumpout). Middle Bay Complex 
is serviced by 8 pumpouts and has a vessel population of 3392 (424 
vessels per pumpout). Western South Shore Bay is serviced by 2 pumpouts 
and has a vessel population of 705 (352 vessels per pumpout).
    The criterion established by the Clean Vessel Act regarding an 
adequate number of pumpouts per vessel population is 1 pumpout per 
300--600 vessels. All areas of the SSER meet or exceed this criterion 
with the exception of Shinnecock Bay--West, which has one pumpout per 
1841vessels. When facilities in this embayment are added to facilities 
in the adjacent waters (Shinnecock Bay--East and Quantuck Bay) a total 
of 5 pumpouts service a vessel population of 2492. The ratio is one 
pumpout per 498 vessels, which meets the criterion.
