Background 

On April 6, 2017, the Commission 

issued a Notice of Intent to Prepare an 

Environmental Assessment for the 

Proposed Projects and Request for 

Comments on Environmental Issues 

(NOI). The NOI was sent to affected 

landowners; Federal, state, and local 

government agencies; elected officials; 

environmental and public interest 

groups; Native American tribes; other 

interested parties; and local libraries 

and newspapers. In response to the NOI, 

the Commission received a total of five 

comment letters from the following: The 

Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, 

Union Pacific Railroad, Gary Pyraon— 

an adjacent landowner to the proposed 

Petronila Compressor Station site, John 

Young—an individual, and the 

Teamsters National Pipeline Labor 

Management Cooperation Trust. The 

comments addressed related and nonjurisdictional facilities, air quality/ 

greenhouse gas emissions, alternatives, 

biological resources, migratory birds, 

habitat and wildlife, water resources, 

hazards/safety concerns, stormwater, 

and general support for the Projects.

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION 

AGENCY 

[EPA–HQ–OAR–2017–0430; FRL–9966–07– 

OAR] 

Notice of Intent To Establish Voluntary 

Criteria for Radon Credentialing 

Organizations 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice of availability; opening 

of a 60-day public comment period. 

SUMMARY: Since 1988, the 

Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) 

has administered a statutorily-mandated 

program under the Indoor Radon 

Abatement Act to reduce exposure to 

indoor radon by promoting awareness, 

testing, installation of radon mitigation 

systems in existing homes, and use of 

radon-resistant new construction 

techniques. EPA works with state 

programs, industry and the public to 

reduce human exposure to radon and 

thereby reduce deaths due to lung 

cancer. Access to quality service 

providers responsible for measuring 

indoor radon levels and conducting 

mitigation when necessary is essential 

to this mission. Historically, EPA 

operated a program, the Radon 

Proficiency Program (RPP), to identify 

qualified radon service providers, a 

service to assist consumers and states 

receiving indoor radon grants. Upon its 

discontinuation, two organizations 

qualified to be designated as responsible 

parties for credentialing radon service 

providers in the absence of a state-run 

process established under a state’s 

regulatory requirements. Since that 

time, there has not been an ongoing and 

open evaluation process for 

organizations wanting to credential 

radon service providers. As the Federal 

agency responsible for implementing 

the national radon program, and in 

response to the needs of our state and 

private partners, EPA intends to 

establish voluntary criteria outlining a 

standard of competence for 

organizations that credential radon 

service providers. This notice provides 

interested parties with an opportunity to 

provide feedback on the Agency’s 

proposed approach. 

DATES: Comments must be received on 

or before October 23, 2017. 

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, 

identified by Docket ID No. EPA–HQ– 

OAR–2017–0430, to the Federal 

eRulemaking Portal: http://

www.regulations.gov. Follow the online 

instructions for submitting comments. 

Once submitted, comments cannot be 

edited or withdrawn. The EPA may 

publish any comment received to its 

public docket. Do not submit 

electronically any information you 

consider to be Confidential Business 

Information (CBI) or other information 

whose disclosure is restricted by statute. 

Multimedia submissions (audio, video, 

etc.) must be accompanied by a written 

comment. The written comment is 

considered the official comment and 

should include discussion of all points 

you wish to make. The EPA will 

generally not consider comments or 

comment contents located outside of the 

primary submission (i.e. on the web, 

cloud, or other file sharing system). For 

additional submission methods, the full 

EPA public comment policy, 

information about CBI or multimedia 

submissions, and general guidance on 

making effective comments, please visit
