Pollution from Ships. The EPA has not
previously established adjudicatory
procedures for the assessment of civil
penalties under that statute.
Establishment of such procedures will
provide for the efficient and effective
adjudication, including administrative
appeals, of such proceedings consistent
with statutory requirements. This
proposed rule also revises the address
for the Environmental Appeals Board to
reflect its relocation to the William
Jefferson Clinton East Building.
In the ‘‘Rules and Regulations’’

making this same amendment as a direct
final rule. If we receive no adverse
comment, the direct final rule will go
into effect and we will not take further
action on this proposed rule.
DATES: Written comments must be
received by December 8, 2014.
