AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: On June 8, 2010, EPA proposed amendments to the standards of 
performance for stationary compression ignition and spark ignition 
internal combustion engines. In this

[[Page 47521]]

notice, we are announcing a 30-day extension of the public comment 
period for the proposal.

DATES: Comments must be received on or before September 8, 2010.

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, identified by Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-
OAR-2010-0295, by one of the following methods:
     http://www.regulations.gov: Follow the on-line 
instructions for submitting comments.
     E-mail: a-and-r-docket@epa.gov.
     Fax: (202) 566-9744.
     Mail: U.S. Postal Service, send to: EPA Docket Center 
(6102T), 1200 Pennsylvania Ave., NW., Washington, DC 20460. Please 
include a total of two copies.
     Hand Delivery: In person or by courier, deliver comments 
to: EPA Docket Center (6102T), EPA West, Room 3334, 1301 Constitution 
Avenue, NW., Washington, DC 20004. Such deliveries are only accepted 
during the Docket's normal hours of operation, and special arrangements 
should be made for deliveries of boxed information. Please include a 
total of two copies.
    Instructions: Direct your comments to Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OAR-
2010-0295. We also rely on documents in Docket ID Nos. EPA-HQ-OAR-2005-
0029 and EPA-HQ-OAR-2003-0190 and incorporate those dockets into the 
record for this proposed rule. EPA's policy is that all comments 
received will be included in the public docket without change and may 
be made available on-line at http://www.regulations.gov, including any 
personal information provided, unless the comment includes information 
claimed to be Confidential Business Information (CBI) or other 
information whose disclosure is restricted by statute. Do not submit 
information that you consider to be CBI or otherwise protected through 
http://www.regulations.gov or e-mail. The http://www.regulations.gov 
Web site is an ``anonymous access'' system, which means EPA will not 
know your identity or contact information unless you provide it in the 
body of your comment. If you send an e-mail comment directly to EPA 
without going through http://www.regulations.gov, your e-mail address 
will be automatically captured and included as part of the comment that 
is placed in the public docket and made available on the Internet. If 
you submit an electronic comment, EPA recommends that you include your 
name and other contact information in the body of your comment and with 
any disk or CD-ROM you submit. If EPA cannot read your comment due to 
technical difficulties and cannot contact you for clarification, EPA 
may not be able to consider your comment. Electronic files should avoid 
the use of special characters, any form of encryption, and be free of 
any defects or viruses.
    Docket: EPA has established a docket for this action under Docket 
ID No. EPA-HQ-OAR-2010-0295. All documents in the docket are listed in 
the http://www.regulations.gov index. We also rely on documents in 
Docket ID Nos. EPA-HQ-OAR-2005-0029 and EPA-HQ-OAR-2003-0190 and 
incorporate those dockets into the record for this proposed rule. 
Although listed in the index, some information is not publicly 
available, e.g., CBI or other information whose disclosure is 
restricted by statute. Certain other material, such as copyrighted 
material, will be publicly available only in hard copy. Publicly 
available docket materials are available either electronically in 
http://www.regulations.gov or in hardcopy at the EPA DocketCenter, EPA 
West, Room 3444, 1301 Constitution Avenue, NW., Washington, DC. The 
Public Reading Room is open from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday through 
Friday, excluding legal holidays. The telephone number for the Public 
Reading Room is (202) 566-1744, and the telephone number for the Docket 
Center is (202) 566-1742.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This document extends the public comment 
period established in the notice of proposed rulemaking published in 
the Federal Register on June 8, 2010 (75 FR 32612). That notice 
proposed revisions to the standards of performance for stationary 
compression ignition and spark ignition internal combustion engines.
    After publication of the proposed rule, EPA received requests from 
the American Petroleum Institute and the Alaska Department of 
Environmental Conservation for a 30-day extension of the comment period 
for the proposed rule. The requestors indicated that an extended 
comment period was necessary to allow time for a more thorough 
evaluation of the proposal and development of a complete set of 
comments.
    The letters requesting an extension to the comment period can be 
found in the docket. EPA is hereby extending the comment period, which 
was set to end on August 9, 2010, to September 8, 2010.
