Subject: Summary of Updated Interagency Comments under EO12866 for EPA Draft Notice of Data Availabilities -- Oil and Natural Gas Sector: Emission Standards for New, Reconstructed, and Modified Sources: Stay of Certain Requirements and Three-Month Stay 

Attached please find the updated summary of interagency comments under EO 12866 for the EPA draft notice of data availabilities entitled, "Oil and Natural Gas Sector: Emission Standards for New, Reconstructed, and Modified Sources: Stay of Certain Requirements" and Three-Month Stay (RIN 2060-AT59 and RIN 2060-AT65) and related economics memorandum.

Due to the nominal nature of the comment, if EPA agrees to accept the comment, I believe that we can conclude review early next week (potentially Monday) on the NODAs. With respect to the process, if EPA accepts the comment, then EPA needs only to submit a final clean version and a RLSO version showing all of the changes made during the review process. I will then open ROCIS up for amendment and the clean version can be uploaded.  

Thank you very much and please let me know if you have any questions.
