The benefits of the Disability and
Rehabilitation Research Projects and Centers
Program have been well established over the
years. Projects similar to the RRTCs have
been completed successfully, and the
proposed priorities will generate new
knowledge through research. The new RRTCs
will generate, disseminate, and promote the
use of new information that would improve
outcomes for individuals with disabilities in
the areas of community living and
participation, employment, and health and
function.

40 CFR Part 80
The EPA is announcing a
public hearing to be held for the
proposed rule ‘‘Regulation of Fuels and
Fuel Additives: 2013 Renewable Fuel
Standards,’’ which was published
separately in the Federal Register on
February 7, 2013. (78 FR 9282.) The
hearing will be held in Ann Arbor,
Michigan on March 8, 2013. EPA is also
extending the comment period on the
proposed rule to April 7, 2013. The
proposed rule would amend the
renewable fuel standard program
regulations to establish annual
percentage standards for cellulosic
biofuel, biomass-based diesel, advanced
biofuel, and renewable fuels that would
apply to all gasoline and diesel
produced in the U.S. or imported in the
year 2013. The proposal is based in part
on EPA’s proposed projection of
cellulosic biofuel production in 2013,
and its proposed determination that the
applicable volumes of advanced biofuel
and total renewable fuel specified in the
statute should not be modified in 2013.
DATES: The public hearing will be held
on March 8, 2013 at the location noted
below under ADDRESSES. The hearing
will begin at 9 a.m. and end when all
parties present who wish to speak have
had an opportunity to do so. Parties
wishing to testify at the hearing should
notify the contact person listed under
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT by
March 1, 2013. Additional information
regarding the hearing appears below
under SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION.
ADDRESSES: The hearing will be held at
the following location: National Vehicle
and Fuel Emissions Laboratory, 2000
Traverwood, Ann Arbor, Michigan
48105. A complete set of documents
related to the proposal is available for
public inspection at the EPA Docket
Center, located at 1301 Constitution
Avenue NW., Room 3334, Washington,
DC between 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m.,
Monday through Friday, excluding legal
holidays. A reasonable fee may be
charged for copying. Documents are also
available through the electronic docket
