Granting Petitions To Add n-Propyl Bromide to the List of Hazardous Air Pollutants
AGENCY:
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION:
Notice, extension of comment period.
SUMMARY:
On January 9, 2017, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) published a draft notice of the rationale for granting petitions to add n-propyl bromide (nPB), also known as 1-bromopropane (1-BP) (Chemical Abstract Service No. 106-94-5), to the list of hazardous air pollutants contained in section 112(b)(1) of the Clean Air Act. The EPA is extending the comment period on the draft notice that was scheduled to close on March 10, 2017, by 90 days until June 8, 2017. The EPA is making this interim extension as an initial response to allow adequate consideration of a request to extend the comment period by more than 6 months.
DATES:
The public comment period for the proposed rule published in the Federal Register on January 9, 2017 (82 FR 2354), is being extended. Written comments must be received on or before June 8, 2017.
ADDRESSES:
Comments. Submit your comments, identified by Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OAR-2014-0471, at http://www.regulations.gov. Follow the online instructions for submitting comments. Once submitted, comments cannot be edited or removed from Regulations.gov . The EPA may publish any comment received to its public docket. Do not submit electronically any information you consider to be Confidential Business Information (CBI) or other information whose disclosure is restricted by statute. Multimedia submissions (audio, video, etc.) must be accompanied by a written comment. The written comment is considered the official comment and should include discussion of all points you wish to make. The EPA will generally not consider comments or comment contents located outside of the primary submission ( i.e., on the Web, cloud, or other file sharing system). For additional submission methods, the full EPA public comment policy, information about CBI or multimedia submissions, and general guidance on making effective comments, please visit http://www2.epa.gov/dockets/commenting-epa-dockets.
