Hi Phillip  -  I don't think there is any reason to meet. I believe I can answer your questions in an email. 

 The timetable/schedule for both NESHAPs rulemakings
 We have a court-ordered deadline for the final rule for December 26,2022. We are currently working on the proposal and hope to get it out in late winter/early spring.
 The availability of and access to any comments and information received in the Information Collection Requests (ICRs) associated with both NESHAP rulemakings
 The test reports received in the ICR are located in the docket. We have a summary of the information collected in the questionnaire in a spreadsheet and are working on memoranda that will explain the information. These memos will be available at proposal. I will check and see if the spreadsheet is available to the public at this time and get back to you tomorrow.
 The emission data obtained from the ICR was used to create a model file for risk modeling purposes. This file can be accessed on the rule website at the link below:

Dear Mr. Ali, 

My name is Philip Sebasco and I am a staff attorney with the Environmental Integrity Project. We are currently seeking information on the status of the rulemaking process for the NESHAP for Coke Oven Batteries (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart L) technology review and the NESHAP for Coke Oven Pushing, Quenching, and Battery Stacks (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart CCCCC) residual risk review. 

Specifically, we would like to schedule a call with the EPA lead for these rules to discuss the following: 

 The timetable/schedule for both NESHAPs rulemakings; and 
 The availability of and access to any comments and information received in the Information Collection Requests (ICRs) associated with both NESHAP rulemakings. 

If you are not the EPA lead for these rules, we would greatly appreciate it if you can connect us with the correct staff or send us in the right direction. 

Thank you!
