SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On April 24, 2009, EPA published a notice that the State of Maine had petitioned the Regional Administrator, Environmental Protection Agency, to determine that adequate facilities for the safe and sanitary removal and treatment of sewage from all vessels are reasonably available for the waters of Mount Desert, Southwest Harbor, portions of Cranberry Isles, and Tremont. One comment was received on this petition. The response to this comment can be obtained utilizing the above contact information. The petition was filed pursuant to Section 312(f)(3) of Public Law 92-500, as amended by Public Laws 95-217 and 100-4, for the purpose of declaring these waters a No Discharge Area (NDA). Section 312(f)(3) states: After the effective date of the initial standards and regulations promulgated under this section, if any State determines that the protection and enhancement of the quality of some or all of the waters within such State require greater environmental protection, such State may completely prohibit the discharge from all vessels of any sewage, whether treated or not, into such waters, except that no such prohibition shall apply until the Administrator determines that adequate facilities for the safe and sanitary removal and treatment of sewage from all vessels are reasonably available for such water to which such prohibition would apply. This Notice of Determination is for the waters of Southern Mount Desert Island. The NDA boundaries are as follows: Waterbody/general area
