Clean Air Act Operating Permit
Program; Petition for Objection to
State Operating Permit for Camden
County Energy Recovery Associates
Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Notice of final order on petition
to object to State operating permit.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: This document announces
that the EPA Administrator has
responded to a joint citizen petition
asking EPA to object to the operating
permit issued to Camden County Energy
Recovery Associates (CCERA) by the
New Jersey Department of
Environmental Protection (NJDEP).
Specifically, the Administrator has
partially granted and partially denied
the petition submitted by the Rutgers
Environmental Law Clinic on behalf of
various New Jersey Environmental
Groups to object to the CCERA State
operating permit.
Pursuant to section 505(b)(2) of the
Clean Air Act (Act), Petitioner may seek
judicial review of those portions of the
petition which EPA denied in the
United States Court of Appeals for the
appropriate circuit. Any petition for
review shall be filed within 60 days
from the date this notice appears in the
Federal Register, pursuant to section
307 of the Act.
ADDRESSES: You may review copies of
the final order, the petition, and other
supporting information at the EPA
Region 2 Office, 290 Broadway, New
York, New York 10007–1866. If you

hours before visiting day. Additionally,

Environmental Planning and Protection,
EPA, Region 2, 290 Broadway, 25th
Floor, New York, New York 10007–
1866, telephone (212) 637–4074.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Act
affords EPA a 45-day period to review,
and object to as appropriate, operating
permits proposed by State permitting
authorities. Section 505(b)(2) of the Act
authorizes any person to petition the
EPA Administrator within 60 days after
the expiration of this review period to
object to State operating permits if EPA
has not done so. Petitions must be based
only on objections to the permit that
were raised with reasonable specificity
during the public comment period
provided by the State, unless the
petitioner demonstrates that it was
impracticable to raise these issues
during the comment period or the
grounds for the issues arose after this
period.
On February 17, 2005, the EPA
received a joint petition from Rutgers
Environmental Law Clinic on behalf of
various New Jersey Environmental
Groups, requesting that EPA object to
the issuance of the title V operating
permit for CCERA. The petition raises
issues regarding the permit application,
the permit issuance process, and the
permit itself. The petitioners assert that:
(1) The public was denied access to the
full administrative record during the
public comment period; (2) the public
notice announcement failed to include
the required information under 40 CFR
70.7(h)(2); (3) the permit lacks a
statement of basis; (4) the permit does
not include a signed compliance
certification that meets the requirements
of 40 CFR 70.6(c)(5)(iii); (5) the permit
does not include a compliance
schedule; and (6) the permit was issued
in violation of the state and federal
environmental justice executive orders.
On January 20, 2006, the
Administrator issued an order partially
granting and partially denying the
petition on CCERA. The order explains
the reasons behind EPA’s conclusion
that the NJDEP must reopen the permit
to: (1) Provide an adequate statement to
the public which provides
documentation to support the factual
basis for certain conditions,
applicability determinations for source
specific applicable requirements and

monitoring and recordkeeping
decisions; and (2) provide the rationale
for selected monitoring where the
underlying requirement does not specify
periodic monitoring. The order also
explains the reasons for denying the
petitioners’ remaining claims.

ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: The U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA or Agency)
Science Advisory Board (SAB) Staff
Office is soliciting nominations for
nationally recognized scientists to serve
on an SAB expert Panel or Panels to
conduct an evaluation of the complex
scientific and technical issues that affect
the causes, location, magnitude and
duration of the hypoxic zone in the
Northern Gulf of Mexico, as well as the
priority and feasibility of management
and control options in the Mississippi
River Basin and Gulf to reduce it.
DATES: Nominations should be
submitted by March 10, 2006 per the
instructions below.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For
information regarding this Request for
Nominations please contact Dr. Holly
Stallworth, Designated Federal Officer
(DFO), EPA Science Advisory Board
Staff, at stallworth.holly@epa.gov or
(202) 343–9867. General information
concerning the SAB can be found on the

continental shelf in the Gulf of Mexico

over activities in the Mississippi River
Basin and the Gulf of Mexico and
participates with other Federal agencies,
state and tribes in the Mississippi River/
Gulf of Mexico Watershed Nutrient Task
Force. In 2001, the Mississippi River/
Gulf of Mexico Watershed Nutrient Task
Force released the Action Plan for
Reducing, Mitigating and Controlling
Hypoxia in the Northern Gulf of Mexico
(hereinafter called the Action Plan,
available at: https://www.epa.gov/
msbasin/taskforce/actionplan.htm).
This Action Plan was informed by the
underlying science described in An
Integrated Assessment of Hypoxia in the
Northern Gulf of Mexico (hereinafter
called the Integrated Assessment,
available at https://www.nos.noaa.gov/
products/hypox_finalfront.pdf)
developed by the National Science and
Technology Council. Six technical
reports available at https://
www.nos.noaa.gov/products/
pubs_hypox.html provided the scientific
foundation for the Integrated
Assessment.
At the request of EPA’s Office of
Water, the Science Advisory Board
(SAB) is forming a Panel(s) to evaluate
the state-of-the-science regarding the
Gulf of Mexico hypoxic zone. The EPA
Science Advisory Board (SAB) was
established by 42 U.S.C. 4365 to provide
independent scientific and technical
advice, consultation, and
recommendations to the EPA
Administrator on the technical basis for
Agency positions and regulations. This
SAB Panel(s) will comply with the
provisions of the Federal Advisory
Committee Act (FACA) and all
appropriate SAB procedures. Upon
completion, the Panel’s report will be
submitted to the SAB for final approval
for transmittal to the EPA
Administrator.
The SAB Panel(s) will review all
available and relevant information,
including the Action Plan, the
Integrated Assessment, and any new
scientific literature that has appeared
since they were released. The Panel(s)
will address a variety of complex
scientific and technical issues that affect
the causes, location, magnitude and
duration of the hypoxic zone, as well as
the priority and feasibility of
management and control options to
reduce it. Such issues may include the
biological, chemical, and physical
characteristics of the Mississippi River
Basin and the Gulf of Mexico; the
sources, types, amounts, fate, transport,
and dynamics of nutrients [nitrogen (N),
phosphorus (P), carbon (C), silicon (Si)]
and oxygen in freshwater, estuarine, and
marine systems; factors affecting the
formation and persistence of hypoxia in
