SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The meeting is being convened to address the condition of the pink shrimp stock and over-wintering of white shrimp. Amendment 6 to the Fishery Management Plan for the Shrimp Fishery of the South Atlantic Region established a proxy for a minimum stock size threshold as a parent stock size capable of producing maximum sustainable yield (BMSY) the following year. The annual estimates of this BMSY proxy have been below the threshold value for more than two consecutive years. This situation may require future action by the Council, based on the findings and recommendations of its Shrimp Review Panel. If necessary, the Panel may also make a recommendation on closing the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) to protect over-wintering white shrimp if a closure is requested by the states. The Panel will prepare a report regarding its recommendations and forward it to the Council’s Scientific and Statistical Committee and the Shrimp Committee to determine if further action is needed. Although non-emergency issues not contained in this agenda may come before this group for discussion, those issues may not be the subject of formal action during this meeting. Action will be restricted to those issues specifically identified in this notice and any issues arising after publication of this notice that require emergency action under section 305(c) of the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act, provided the public has been notified of the Council’s intent to take final action to address the emergency.

This order constitutes final action on the four (4) petitions submitted by Georgia Center for Law in the Public Interest (GCLPI or the Petitioner), on behalf of the Sierra Club, Georgia Public Interest Research Group, and Coosa River Basin Initiative. Pursuant to section 505(b)(2) of the Clean Air Act (the Act), any person may seek judicial review of the Order in the United States Court of Appeals for the appropriate circuit within 60 days of this notice under section 307 of the Act. VerDate Aug<31>2005 15:58 Feb 07, 2007 Jkt 211001 Copies of the final Order, the petitions, and all pertinent information relating thereto are on file at the following location: EPA Region 4, Air, Pesticides and Toxics Management Division, 61 Forsyth Street, SW., Atlanta, Georgia 30303–8960. The final Order is also available electronically at the following address: https:// www.epa.gov/region07/programs/artd/ air/title5/petitiondb/petitions/ georgiapowerr renewals_decision 2005&2006.pdf. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Art Hofmeister, Air Permits Section, EPA Region 4, at (404) 562–9115 or hofmeister.art@epa.gov. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Act affords EPA a 45-day period to review and, as appropriate, to object to operating permits proposed by state permitting authorities under title V of the Act, 42 U.S.C. 7661–7661f. Section 505(b)(2) of the Act and 40 CFR 70.8(d) authorize any person to petition the EPA Administrator to object to a title V operating permit within 60 days after the expiration of EPA’s 45-day review period if EPA has not objected on its own initiative. 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. EPA received two (2) petitions each on December 22, 2005 (for Plants Bowen and Branch), and January 3, 2006 (for Plants Hammond and Scherer), requesting that EPA object to state title V operating permit renewals issued by EPD to Georgia Power for the aforementioned sources. The Petitioner maintains that the Georgia Power permit renewals are not in compliance with the Act because: (1) They failed to require compliance schedules to bring the sources into compliance with applicable opacity standards and (2) they were not accompanied by adequate statements of basis. Furthermore, related to Plants Bowen and Scherer, the Petitioner alleges that the permit renewals are not in compliance with the Act because they failed to require compliance schedules to bring the sources into compliance regarding prevention of significant deterioration requirements. On January 8, 2007, the Administrator issued an order denying the four (4) petitions. The Order explains the reasons behind EPA’s decision to deny the petitions for objection on all grounds.
