SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Additional Information About the
Proposed Consent Decree
The proposed consent decree would
resolve a lawsuit filed by Donald van
der Vaart, in his official capacity as
Secretary of the North Carolina
Department of Environmental Quality,
and the North Carolina Department of
Environmental Quality seeking to
compel the Administrator to take an
action under CAA sections 110(k)(2)–(4)
to approve, disapprove, or conditionally
approve, in whole or in part, the portion
of North Carolina’s September 5, 2013,
SIP revision addressing the PM2.5 PSD
increments and implementing
regulations. Under the terms of the
proposed consent decree, EPA would
take certain specified action with
respect to this claim no later than
September 23, 2016. See the proposed
consent decree for specific details.
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
proposed consent decree should be
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 238001
withdrawn, the terms of the consent
decree will be affirmed.
II. Additional Information About
Commenting on the Proposed Consent
Decree
A. How can I get a copy of the proposed
consent decree?
The official public docket for this
action (identified by EPA–HQ–OGC–
2016–0190) contains a copy of the
proposed consent decree. The official
public docket is available for public
viewing at the Office of Environmental
Information (OEI) Docket in the EPA
Docket Center, EPA West, Room 3334,
1301 Constitution Ave. NW.,
Washington, DC. The EPA Docket
Center Public Reading Room is open
from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday
through Friday, excluding legal
holidays. The telephone number for the
Public Reading Room is (202) 566–1744,
and the telephone number for the OEI
Docket is (202) 566–1752.
An electronic version of the public
docket is available through
www.regulations.gov. You may use
www.regulations.gov to submit or view
public comments, access the index
listing of the contents of the official
public docket, and access those
documents in the public docket that are
available electronically. Once in the
system, key in the appropriate docket
identification number then select
‘‘search’’.
It is important to note that EPA’s
policy is that public comments, whether
submitted electronically or in paper,
will be made available for public
viewing online at www.regulations.gov
without change, unless the comment
contains copyrighted material, CBI, or
other information whose disclosure is
restricted by statute. Information
claimed as CBI and other information
whose disclosure is restricted by statute
is not included in the official public
docket or in the electronic public
docket. EPA’s policy is that copyrighted
material, including copyrighted material
contained in a public comment, will not
be placed in EPA’s electronic public
docket but will be available only in
printed, paper form in the official public
docket. Although not all docket
materials may be available
electronically, you may still access any
of the publicly available docket
materials through the EPA Docket
Center.
B. How and to whom do I submit
comments?
You may submit comments as
provided in the ADDRESSES section.
Please ensure that your comments are
PO 00000
Frm 00053
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
19601
submitted within the specified comment
period. Comments received after the
close of the comment period will be
marked ‘‘late.’’ EPA is not required to
consider these late comments.
If you submit an electronic comment,
EPA recommends that you include your
name, mailing address, and an email
address or other contact information in
the body of your comment and with any
disk or CD ROM you submit. This
ensures that you can be identified as the
submitter of the comment and allows
EPA to contact you in case EPA cannot
read your comment due to technical
difficulties or needs further information
on the substance of your comment. Any
identifying or contact information
provided in the body of a comment will
be included as part of the comment that
is placed in the official public docket,
and made available in EPA’s electronic
public docket. If EPA cannot read your
comment due to technical difficulties
and cannot contact you for clarification,
EPA may not be able to consider your
comment.
Use of the www.regulations.gov Web
site to submit comments to EPA
electronically is EPA’s preferred method
for receiving comments. The electronic
public docket system is an ‘‘anonymous
access’’ system, which means EPA will
not know your identity, email address,
or other contact information unless you
provide it in the body of your comment.
In contrast to EPA’s electronic public
docket, EPA’s electronic mail (email)
system is not an ‘‘anonymous access’’
system. If you send an email comment
directly to the Docket without going
through www.regulations.gov, your
email address is automatically captured
and included as part of the comment
that is placed in the official public
docket, and made available in EPA’s
electronic public docket.
