VerDate Nov<24>2008 15:25 Jan 28, 2009 Jkt 217001 [Petition IV–2003–2; FRL–8769–3] Clean Air Act Operating Permit Program; Petition for Objection to State Operating Permit for Thoroughbred Generating Company, LLC—Thoroughbred Generating Station; Central City (Muhlenberg County), KY AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). ACTION: Notice of final order on petition to object to a state operating permit. PO 00000 Frm 00016 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 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. Petitioners submitted a petition on January 24, 2003, requesting that EPA object to a state title V operating permit issued by KDAQ to TGS. However, on December 15, 2008, Thoroughbred Generating Company relinquished the permit at issue in the petition. Therefore, on January 8, 2009, the Administrator issued an Order denying the petition as moot since no permit about which EPA could object existed. The Order further explains EPA’s rationale for denying the petition. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Kimberly D. Bose, Secretary. [FR Doc.
