Announcement To Extend the Recommended Determination Preparation 
Period for the Spruce No. 1 Surface Mine, Logan County, West Virginia

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice; Announcement of extension.

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

SUMMARY: EPA's regulations require that the Regional Administrator 
either withdraw the Spruce No. 1 Proposed Determination or prepare a 
Recommended Determination within 30 days after the conclusion of the 
public hearing (40 CFR 231.5(a)). However, in order to allow full 
consideration of the extensive record, including over 4000 public 
comments we received, EPA finds there is good cause to extend the time 
period provided in 40 CFR 231.5(a) until September 24, 2010. This time 
extension was made under authority of 40 CFR 231.8, which allows for 
such extensions upon a showing of good cause.

    Dated: June 29, 2010.
William C. Early,
Acting Regional Administrator, Region III.
