scheduled a teleconference with 

representatives of the Confederated 

Tribes of Grand Ronde to discuss the 

proposed Jordan Cove Energy and 

Pacific Connector Gas Pipeline Projects. 

This meeting will be held on October 

24, 2017 at 12:00 p.m. (EDT).

archeological site or Native American 

cultural resource, the public will be 

excused for the portion of the meeting 

when such information is disclosed. 

If you would like to attend the 

meeting, please contact Mr. John 

Peconom, Environmental Project

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. General Information 

A. Does this action apply to me? 

This action is directed to the public 

in general. As such, the Agency has not 

attempted to describe the specific 

entities that this action may apply to. 

Although others may be affected, this 

action applies directly to the submitters 

of the actions addressed in this 

document. 

B. What should I consider as I prepare 

my comments for EPA? 

1. Submitting CBI. Do not submit this 

information to EPA through 

regulations.gov or email. Clearly mark 

the part or all of the information that 

you claim to be CBI. For CBI 

information in a disk or CD–ROM that 

you mail to EPA, mark the outside of the 

disk or CD–ROM as CBI and then 

identify electronically within the disk or 

CD–ROM the specific information that 

is claimed as CBI. In addition to one 

complete version of the comment that 

includes information claimed as CBI, a 

copy of the comment that does not 

contain the information claimed as CBI 

must be submitted for inclusion in the 

public docket. Information so marked 

will not be disclosed except in 

accordance with procedures set forth in 

40 CFR parts 2. 

2. Tips for preparing your comments. 

When preparing and submitting your 

comments, see the commenting tips at 

http://www.epa.gov/dockets/ 

comments.html. 

II. What action is the Agency taking? 

This document provides receipt and 

status reports, which cover the period 

from August 1, 2017 to August 31, 2017, 

and consists of the PMNs and TMEs 

both pending and/or expired, and the 

NOCs to manufacture a new chemical 

that the Agency has received under 

TSCA section 5 during this time period. 

III. What is the Agency’s authority for 

taking this action? 

Under TSCA, 15 U.S.C. 2601 et seq., 

EPA classifies a chemical substance as 

either an ‘‘existing’’ chemical or a 

‘‘new’’ chemical. Any chemical 

substance that is not on EPA’s TSCA 

Inventory is classified as a ‘‘new 

chemical,’’ while those that are on the 

TSCA Inventory are classified as an 

‘‘existing chemical.’’ For more 

information about the TSCA Inventory, 

please go to: http://www.epa.gov/ 

opptintr/newchems/pubs/ 

inventory.htm. 

Anyone who plans to manufacture or 

import a new chemical substance for a 

non-exempt commercial purpose is 

required by TSCA section 5 to provide 

EPA with a PMN, before initiating the 

activity. Section 5(h)(1) of TSCA 

authorizes EPA to allow persons, upon 

application, to manufacture (includes 

import) or process a new chemical 

substance, or a chemical substance 

subject to a significant new use rule 

(SNUR) issued under TSCA section 5(a), 

for ‘‘test marketing’’ purposes, which is 

referred to as a test marketing 

exemption, or TME. For more

information about the requirements 

applicable to a new chemical go to: 

http://www.epa.gov/oppt/newchems. 

Under TSCA sections 5(d)(2) and 

5(d)(3), EPA is required to publish in 

the Federal Register a notice of receipt 

of a PMN or an application for a TME 

and to publish in the Federal Register 

periodic reports on the status of new 

chemicals under review and the receipt 

of NOCs to manufacture those 

chemicals. 

IV. Receipt and Status Reports 

As used in each of the tables in this 

unit, (S) indicates that the information 

in the table is the specific information 

provided by the submitter, and (G) 

indicates that the information in the 

table is generic information because the 

specific information provided by the 

submitter was claimed as CBI. 

For the 42 PMNs received by EPA 

during this period, Table 1 provides the 

following information (to the extent that 

such information is not claimed as CBI): 

The EPA case number assigned to the 

PMN; The date the PMN was received 

by EPA; the projected end date for 

EPA’s review of the PMN; the 

submitting manufacturer/importer; the 

potential uses identified by the 

manufacturer/importer in the PMN; and 

the chemical identity.

Acid Rain Program: Notification of 

Annual Adjustment Factors for Excess 

Emissions Penalty 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Annual adjustment factors for 

excess emissions penalty. 

SUMMARY: The Acid Rain Program under 

title IV of the Clean Air Act provides for 

automatic excess emissions penalties in 

dollars per ton of excess emissions for 

sources that do not meet their annual 

Acid Rain emissions limitations. This 

document states the dollars per ton 

excess emissions penalty amounts, 

which must be adjusted for each 

compliance year commensurate with 

changes in the Consumer Price Index 

(CPI), for compliance years 2017 and 

2018.

Robert L. Miller, Clean Air Markets 

Division (6204M), U.S. Environmental 

Protection Agency, 1200 Pennsylvania

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Acid 

Rain Program under title IV of the Clean 

Air Act limits annual sulfur dioxide and 

nitrogen oxide emissions of fossil fuelfired utility units. Under the Acid Rain 

Program, affected sources must hold 

enough allowances to cover their sulfur 

dioxide emissions, and certain coalfired sources must meet an emission 

limit for nitrogen oxides. Under 40 CFR 

77.6, sources that do not meet these 

requirements must pay a penalty 

without demand to the Administrator 

based on the number of excess tons 

emitted times $2,000 as adjusted by an 

annual adjustment factor, which must 

be published in the Federal Register. 

The annual adjustment factor for 

adjusting the penalty for excess 

emissions of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen 

oxides under 40 CFR part 77.6(b) for 

compliance year 2017 is 1.9330. This 

value is derived using the CPI for 1990 

and 2016 (defined respectively at 40 

CFR 72.2 as the CPI for August of the 

year before the specified year for all 

urban consumers) and results in an 

automatic penalty of $3,866 per excess 

ton of sulfur dioxide or nitrogen oxides 

emitted for 2017. 

The annual adjustment factor for 

adjusting the penalty for such excess 

emissions under 40 CFR 77.6(b) for 

compliance year 2018 is 1.9705. This 

value is derived using the CPI for 1990 

and 2017 and results in an automatic 

penalty of $3,941 per excess ton of 

sulfur dioxide or nitrogen oxides 

emitted for 2018.
