ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY I. Additional Information About the Proposed Consent Decree [FRL–9901–56–OGC] Dated: September 18, 2013. Joseph L. Dillon, Director, Center for Environmental Finance. Proposed Consent Decree, Clean Air Act Citizen Suit [FR Doc. 2013–23784 Filed 9–30–13; 8:45 am] AGENCY: The proposed consent decree would resolve a lawsuit filed by WildEarth Guardians (‘‘Plaintiffs’’) seeking to compel the Administrator to take actions under CAA sections 110(k)(2) to take action on several SIP submissions from the States of Colorado, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Utah. These SIP revisions were submitted to EPA between June of 2009 and June of 2011. Section 110(k)(2) requires EPA to take action on SIP revisions within twelve months of the submission of a SIP revision that has been determined to be or deemed to be complete. EPA did not take action on the SIP revisions listed above within the statutory deadline and this is the basis for the Plaintiffs’ mandatory duty lawsuit at issue in the proposed consent decree. The proposed consent decree would require EPA to sign a notice of final action to approve, disapprove, approve in part and disapprove in part, or conditionally approve the above-listed SIP revisions by the specific dates identified in the proposed consent decree. The proposed consent decree would also require EPA, following signature of the notices of final action on the SIP revisions, to promptly submit such notices to the Office of the Federal Register for review and publication in the Federal Register. After EPA fulfills its obligations under the proposed consent decree, the consent decree would be terminated and the case dismissed. In addition, the proposed consent decree contains a provision addressing Plaintiffs’ attorneys’ fees, costs, and expenses incurred in this litigation. For a period of thirty (30) days following the date of publication of this notice, the Agency will accept written comments relating to the proposed consent decree from persons who are not named as parties or intervenors to the litigation in question. EPA or the Department of Justice may withdraw or withhold consent to the proposed consent decree if the comments disclose facts or considerations that indicate that such consent is inappropriate, improper, inadequate, or inconsistent with the requirements of the Act. Unless EPA or the Department of Justice determines that consent to this consent decree should be withdrawn, the terms of the consent decree will be affirmed. BILLING CODE 6560–50–P Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). ACTION: Notice of proposed consent decree; request for public comment.
