Petitions must be based only on objections to the permit that were raised with reasonable specificity during the public comment period provided by the state, unless the petitioner demonstrates that it was impracticable to raise these issues during the comment period or unless the grounds for the issues arose after this period.

On April 30, 2019, the EPA Administrator issued an Order denying the ten submittals, to the extent that these submittals are or could be considered petitions requesting an EPA objection. The Order explains the basis for the EPA’s decision.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The CAA affords the EPA a 45-day period to 
review and object to, as appropriate, operating permits proposed by 
state permitting authorities under title V of the CAA. Section 
505(b)(2) of the CAA authorizes any person to petition the EPA 
Administrator to object to a title V operating permit within 60 days 
after the expiration of the EPA's 45-day review period if the EPA has 
not objected on its own initiative. Petitions must be based only on 
objections to the permit that were raised with reasonable specificity 
during the public comment period provided by the state, unless the 
petitioner demonstrates that it was impracticable to raise these issues 
during the comment period or unless the grounds for the issues arose 
after this period.
    The EPA received eight petitions from: (1) The Westchester County 
Board of Legislators, dated September 4, 2015; (2) Grassroots 
Environmental Education, dated September 4, 2015; (3) Suzannah Glidden, 
dated September 4, 2015; (4) Berty Barranco-Feero, dated September 4, 
2015; (5) Paola Dalle Carbonare, dated September 4, 2015; (6) Lorenzo 
Auslander, dated September 4, 2015; (7) Simone Auslander, dated 
September 4, 2015; and (8) Cari Gardner, dated September 3, 2015. EPA 
also received an email message from Paula Clair dated September 3, 2015 
and a letter from Susan Van Dolsen dated September 3, 2015 relating to 
the Permits. The Clair and Van Dolsen Submittals do not appear to be 
petitions submitted under CAA Sec.  505(b)(2) asking EPA to object to 
the Permits. Nonetheless, without waiving any claim that the Clair and 
Van Dolsen Submittals were not properly filed, EPA responded to those 
Submittals, in connection with its response to the eight Petitions, as 
if the Clair and Van Dolsen Submittals were petitions to object under 
CAA Sec.  505(b)(2).
    On April 30, 2019, the EPA Administrator issued an Order denying 
the ten submittals, to the extent that these submittals are or could be 
considered petitions requesting an EPA objection. The Order explains 
the basis for the EPA's decision.
    Sections 307(b) and 505(b)(2) of the CAA provide that a petitioner 
may request judicial review of those portions of an order that deny 
issues in a title V petition. Any petition for review shall be filed in 
the United States Court of Appeals for the appropriate circuit no later 
than August 6, 2019.

    Dated: May 15, 2019.
