Subject: Supplemental Transport Rule 
 
 Christine:
  
 Please find attached an updated version of the Supplemental Transport Rule (in redline strikeout) for your consideration. We have made some changes to Oklahoma's state emissions budget and added an explanation of this, as well as added a small amount of state program regulatory language (for Oklahoma) for clarification purposes.
  
 Please call me to go over this in the morning.
  
 Best regards, 
  
 Sam

Christine:

Per our conversation, please find attached an updated redline strikeout version of subject preamble and rule and the TSD regarding the state emissions budgets.  I will have Jeb send you early tomorrow the original spreadsheets that led us to the budget tables in the TSD that you also requested.

Thank you very much for moving forward on the review of this regulatory package for us.

Best regards,

Sam

Christine:

Please find attached some further slight adjustments to the subject rule package that includes changes since December 6 that are clarifications of legal points regarding the Allegan receptor and the separate issue of the Kansas SIP Call.

I am including two versions in this email for OMB's convenience (they are identical but show different 'scopes' of edits based on what OMB may want to review).

      The file showing redline for all changes from the document as
      originally transmitted to OMB for review.  (See attached file: EO
      12866_SupplementalTransportRule_RIN
      2060-AR01_FRM_2011-12-9_redline to OMB_all changes since original
      OMB transmittal.docx)
      The same file, but showing only those changes made since the Dec 6
      version that were previously transmitted to you.(See attached
      file: EO 12866_SupplementalTransportRule_RIN
      2060-AR01_FRM_2011-12-9_redline to OMB_changes since Dec 6.docx)

Please call me if you have any questions.

Best regards,

Sam
