Notice of Availability of Electronic
Reporting; Federal Air Rules for

Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
The Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) is notifying the public
that electronic emissions reporting is
now available for sources covered by the
Federal Air Rules for Reservations
(FARR). The FARR requires certain
sources of air pollution on Indian
Reservations in Idaho, Oregon, and
Washington to register and report
emissions to the EPA. Any person who
owns or operates a source of air
pollution with the potential to emit two
or more tons per year of an air pollutant,
with certain exceptions, must register
annually and report those emissions.
Registration and emissions reports are
due within 90 days of commencing
operations, and annually thereafter. The
EPA created the FARR Online Reporting
System (FORS) to help make registration
and emissions reporting easier. The
FORS, operated through the agency’s

PO 00000

Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

Central Data Exchange (CDX), is
CROMERR compliant, which means the
electronic signature meets the EPA’s
regulatory electronic signature
requirements.

ADDRESSES:
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Nancy Helm: Office of Air, Waste and
Toxics; 206–553–6908; or helm.nancy@
epa.gov.
As of
January 15, 2016, air pollution sources
covered by the FARR as provided in 40
CFR 49.138 may register and report
emissions electronically.
How to Access the System: The FORS
can be accessed at https://cdx.epa.gov.
New users will need to register and
select FORS as their program service.
The EPA intends to provide training to
affected entities on how to access,
register and use the system.
How to Get Help Using the System:
The EPA has provided the CDX user
guide to each source currently registered
under the FARR, and to tribal
governments in Idaho, Oregon, and
Washington. That guide is available at
https://yosemite.epa.gov/R10/tribal.nsf/
programs/farr. The CDX Help Desk is
available for technical support-related
questions between the hours of 8:00
a.m. and 6:00 p.m. (ET) at 1–888–890–
1995 or helpdesk@epacdx.net.
Confidential Business Information:
Regulated entities may assert a business
confidentiality claim covering any
portion of the submitted information as
provided in 40 CFR part 2, subpart B.
Information claimed as confidential
should be submitted on compact disk or
flash drive and mailed to the FARR
Registration Coordinator, EPA Region
10, AWT–150, 1200 Sixth Ave., Suite
900, Seattle, WA 98101. Confidential
treatment is automatically forfeited for
information submitted through the
FORS. Note that emissions data and
information necessary to determine
emissions is not entitled to confidential
treatment. Failure to assert a claim in
the manner described in 40 CFR part 2,
subpart B, allows the submitted
information to be released to the public
without further notice. Information
subject to a business confidentiality
claim may be disclosed by the EPA only
to the extent set forth in the above-cited
regulations.
