Abstract: Indoor airPLUS is aimed at forming public-private partnerships that help prevent various forms of indoor air pollution and their associated health risks. This ICR covers information collection activities under the EPA’s newly revised Indoor airPLUS program. Indoor airPLUS is a voluntary certification labeling program that represents value-added marketability that home builders, verification companies, and oversight organizations can use to distinguish themselves from competition, while homeowners see increased comfort and a healthier and safer home with improved indoor air quality (IAQ) by requiring construction practices and product specifications that minimize exposure to airborne pollutants and contaminants.

Abstract: Under the Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. 7521 et seq.) manufacturers and 49461 importers of on-highway motorcycles must have a certificate of conformity issued by EPA covering any vehicle they intend to offer for sale in the United States. A certificate of conformity represents that the respective vehicle conforms to all applicable emissions requirements. In issuing a certificate of conformity, EPA reviews vehicle information and emissions test data to determine if the required testing has been performed and the required emissions levels have been demonstrated. After a certificate of conformity has been issued, the Agency may request additional information to verify that the product continues to meet its certified emissions standards throughout its useful life.

ACTION: Proposed administrative action to revoke a grant; request for comments; and notice of opportunity for public hearing. AGENCY: Byron J. Bunker, Director, Compliance Division, Office of Transportation and Air Quality. The EPA is proposing to revoke the Fiscal Year 2019 Clean Air Act (CAA) section 105 grant awarded to the Puerto Rico Department of Natural and Environmental Resources (PRDNER) because it has failed to satisfy the statutory maintenance of effort (MOE) requirement for that year. The EPA is providing prior notice of its intent to revoke PRDNER’s Fiscal Year 2019 Clean Air Act section 105 grant. When the proposed action is final, PRDNER will be eligible to receive future CAA section 105 grants to support its air pollution control program.
