Agency (EPA), the Pipeline and
Hazardous Materials Safety
Administration (PHMSA) and the
Bureau of Safety and Environmental
Enforcement (BSEE). Completion of the
PREP exercises will satisfy all OPA 90
mandated Federal oil pollution response
exercise requirements.
The four Federal agencies referenced
above published the PREP Guidelines in
1994 and revised them in 2002. The
2002 edition is available in the docket
as described in the ADDRESSES section
above. The agencies are now
considering revising the PREP
Guidelines again in order to reflect
agency reorganizations, preparedness
and response lessons learned, and new
regulations, including the Coast Guard’s
Salvage and Marine Firefighting
regulations. We invite public comment
on what changes, if any, should be made
to update or improve the PREP
Guidelines.
This notice is part of a two-stage
public comment process. The comments
received from the public on what, if
any, suggested changes would be
appropriate to the current version of the
PREP Guidelines will be used to inform
the revision process. After considering
all of the comments, we anticipate
making a revised draft of the PREP
Guidelines available for public review
and comment in the future.
This notice is issued under authority
of 33 U.S.C. 1321(j), 5 U.S.C. 552(a), and
33 CFR 1.05–1.
Dated: February 9, 2012.
