ACTION: Notice. AGENCY: SUMMARY: On October 31, 2008, the Regional Administrator for the Environmental Protection Agency, Region 10 (EPA), approved the application by the State of Alaska to administer and enforce an Alaska version of the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) program, pursuant to section 402 of the Clean Water Act (CWA or ‘‘the Act’’). The State will administer the approved Alaska Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (APDES) program through the Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation (ADEC) regulating discharges of pollutants into waters of the United States under its jurisdiction. EPA has approved the State’s implementation plan that transfers the administration of specific program components from EPA to the State over a three year period from the date of program approval, subject to continuing EPA oversight and enforcement authority, in place of the NPDES program previously administered by EPA in Alaska. Upon approval of the Alaska program, the Regional Administrator notified the State, signed the Memorandum of Agreement between EPA and ADEC, and will suspend issuance of NPDES permits in Alaska in accordance with the State’s approved schedule to transfer NPDES program authority. EPA retains NPDES permitting authority and primary enforcement responsibility for: the biosolids program; facilities operating in the Denali National Park and Preserve pursuant to Alaska Statehood Act Section 11; facilities discharging in Indian Country as defined in 18 U.S.C. 1151; facilities operating outside state waters (three miles offshore); and facilities with CWA section 301(h) waivers. This approval includes an implementation plan that transfers the E:\FR\FM\07NON1.SGM 07NON1
