ACTION: Notice; request for comments. AGENCY: SUMMARY: On behalf of the National Dredging Team, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is requesting comment on the National Dredging Policy and the National Dredging Team’s 2003 Action Agenda for Dredged Material Management. The National Dredging Policy was developed by a Federal Interagency Working Group, which was convened by the U.S. Department of Transportation in the early 1990s to investigate and recommend methods to improve the dredging review process. The Group identified the need for a unified national dredging policy to guide in the development of recommendations and to focus Federal agency commitments. The findings and principles described in the National Dredging Policy have been embraced by the Group’s participating agencies. The National Dredging Team (NDT), a Federal interagency group co-chaired by the EPA and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), published its Dredged Material Management: Action Agenda for the Next Decade in 2003. This Action Agenda lays out 22 recommended actions to guide the National Dredging Team and support implementation of the National Dredging Policy. At the request of the Cabinet-level Committee on the Marine Transportation System, the NDT is currently reviewing the National Dredging Policy, as well as the NDT’s Action Agenda, to reaffirm their adequacy in support of the U.S. Marine Transportation System. DATES: Comments must be received on or before August 6, 2007. ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, identified by Docket ID No. EPA–HQ– OW–2007–0357, by one of the following methods: • www.regulations.gov: Follow the on-line instructions for submitting comments. • E-mail: OW-Docket@epa.gov, Attention Docket ID No. EPA–HQ–OW– 2007–0357. • Mail: Review of National Dredging Policy, Water Docket, EPA Docket Center, Environmental Protection Agency, Mailcode: 2822T, 1200 Pennsylvania Ave., NW., EPA West Room 3334, Washington, DC 20460.
