Public Notice on the Internet of Region
7 Disapprovals of Clean Water Act
Impaired Waters Lists
Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Notice of change in procedures.

SUMMARY: EPA Region 7 is announcing
a change to its procedures for issuing a
public notice seeking comment on the
Region’s disapproval of a submittal by a
state of an impaired waters list under
Clean Water Act Section 303(d). We
intend to provide this public notice on
the Internet at https://www.epa.gov/
region7 rather than by publication in
newspapers of general circulation
throughout the state.
DATES: This change in procedures will
be effective on September 12, 2008.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Jeannette Schafer at (913) 551–7297 or
by e-mail at schafer.jeannette@epa.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This
notice announces a change to the
manner in which EPA Region 7 issues
a public notice seeking comment under
40 CFR 130.7(d)(2) on the Region’s
disapproval of a submittal by a state of
a Clean Water Act (‘‘CWA’’) Section
303(d) List.
Under Section 303(d)(1)(A) of the
CWA, each state is required to identify
and prioritize those waters within its
boundaries for which technology-based
effluent limitations and other required
controls are not stringent enough to
achieve the applicable water quality
standards. See CWA 303(d)(1); 40 CFR
130.7(b)(1). After a state develops its
CWA Section 303(d) List, the state must
then submit the list to EPA for review
and approval. See 40 CFR 130.7(d)(1).
Within 30 days of a state’s submission,
EPA must approve or disapprove the
state’s list. If EPA disapproves the
state’s CWA Section 303(d) List, it must
identify the impaired waters that should
be listed within 30 days from the date
of disapproval. EPA regulations provide
that the Regional Administrator must
promptly issue a public notice seeking
comment on EPA’s listing decision.
After considering public comment and
making appropriate revisions, the
Region transmits the list to the state. See
40 CFR 130.7(d)(2).
The CWA and applicable regulations
do not specify the type of public notice
to be issued for EPA listing actions. In
the past, EPA Region 7 has issued
public notices through publication in
newspapers of general circulation.
In light of the continuing
improvements in public access to the
Internet and EPA’ s ability to
disseminate materials on the Internet,
EPA Region 7 intends to notify the
public of listing actions under 40 CFR
130.7(d)(2) by placing notices on the
Internet rather than using publication in
newspapers of general circulation. The
Internet provides a more effective and
efficient means to provide notice. Using
the Internet makes the notice available
PO 00000
Frm 00026
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
to the public during the entirety of the
comment period, rather than only on the
day the notice is published in the local
newspaper. The Region believes the
Internet notice is likely to reach a larger
audience, since the Internet is generally
available through schools, work, and
libraries. Internet notice also enables the
Region to reach beyond the finite
distribution areas of local newspapers to
make interested persons aware of the
Region’s listing decision. We plan to
place the notices on the EPA Region 7
Web site at https://www.epa.gov/region7.
The Region also plans to issue news
releases notifying media outlets about
our listing decisions, as well as
notifications to elected officials and
interested parties. The letter
transmitting the final list to the state
will be accessible from https://
www.epa.gov/region7.
To the extent that this announcement
may be considered a rule, EPA
considers it to be a procedural rule
which is exempt from notice and
comment rulemaking requirements
under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(A).
Authority: 33 U.S.C. 1313(d); 40 CFR
130.7.
Dated: August 28, 2008.
