IV. Request for Comment
EPA seeks comments on several
aspects in the implementation of the
expedited methods approval process.
The information and comments
submitted in response to this notice will
be considered in determining the final
details of the implementation process.
Specifically, EPA seeks comments on
the following:
1. EPA requests comment on whether
a comprehensive list of methods
approved under the expedited process
should be publicly maintained. If such
a list is desirable, then how should EPA
make it available?
• As an appendix in the CFR;
• On an EPA Web page;
• As a table or fact sheet available
from an EPA designated contact;
• Using a combination of these
approaches or other suggestions.
2. EPA requests comment on the type
of information that should be included
in the Federal Register notice when
new method approvals are published
using the expedited process. Is a list of
the methods being approved sufficient
or should the notice include additional
information? If additional information is
suggested, please indicate the types of
information that are desirable and why.
3. EPA requests comment concerning
the usefulness of amending future
regulatory text to describe where a list
of methods approved using the
expedited process can be obtained. If
such a change is desired, should a
reference to the list be included:
• With each methods table;
• In 40 CFR 141.27 under Alternate
Test Methods.
VerDate Aug<31>2005
15:22 Apr 09, 2007
Jkt 211001
• Is there a better suggestion?
4. EPA requests comment on the
format of the table that lists methods
approved using the expedited approval
process. Does the example provided in
this notice provide enough information
in a usable format or are there better
suggestions for listing the information?
5. EPA invites Primacy Agencies to
comment on how methods approved
under this new procedure will be
implemented in their programs and if
there are concerns that EPA can address
when implementing this new approval
process (in order to simplify or expedite
Primacy Agency acceptance of the
alternative methods).
