Proposed Consent Decree, Clean Air Act Citizen Suit
In accordance with section 113(g) of the Clean Air Act, as amended (``CAA'' or the ``Act''), notice is given of a proposed consent decree in Citizens for Clean Air, et al. v. Andrew Wheeler, et al., No. 2:18-cv-01803-TSZ (W.D. Wa.). On December 18, 2018, Citizens for Clean Air, a project of Alaska Community Action on Toxics, and Sierra Club (``Plaintiffs'') filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the Western District of Washington, alleging that the Administrator of the United States Environmental Protection Agency and the Regional Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency Region 10 (``EPA'') failed to perform a non-discretionary duty to determine whether the State of Alaska has made an administratively complete state implementation plan (``SIP'') submission. The SIP submission at issue is required to meet the Serious nonattainment area plan requirements for the 2006 24-hour PM2.5 NAAQS for the Fairbanks North Star Borough area. The proposed consent decree would establish a deadline for EPA to determine whether the State of Alaska has made the required SIP submission.
National Oil and Hazardous Substances Pollution Contingency Plan; National Priorities List: Partial Deletion of the Shaw Avenue Dump Superfund Site
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region 7 is issuing a Notice of Intent to Delete the Operable Unit 1Chemical Fill and Contaminated Soil (OU1) of the Shaw Avenue Dump Superfund Site (Site) located in Charles City, Floyd County, Iowa, from the National Priorities List, or NPL, and requests public comments on this proposed action. The NPL, promulgated pursuant to section 105 of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) of 1980, as amended, is an appendix of the National Oil and Hazardous Substances Pollution Contingency Plan, or NCP. The EPA and the state of Iowa, through the Iowa Department of Natural Resources, have determined that all appropriate response actions at these identified parcels under CERCLA, other than operations and maintenance and five-year reviews, have been completed. However, this deletion does not preclude future actions under Superfund. This partial deletion pertains to the Operable Unit 1Chemical Fill and Contaminated Soil. The Operable Unit 2Groundwater will remain on the NPL and is not being considered for deletion as part of this action.

This is a proposed extension of the ICR, which is currently approved through May 31, 2019. Public comments were previously requested via the Federal Register on September 24, 2018 during a 60-day comment period. This notice allows for an additional 30 days for public comments. A fuller description of the ICR is given below, including its estimated burden and cost to the public. An agency may not conduct or sponsor and a person is not required to respond to a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number.
National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants: Surface Coating of Metal Cans and Surface Coating of Metal Coil Residual Risk and Technology Reviews
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing amendments to address the results of the residual risk and technology reviews (RTRs) that the EPA is required to conduct in accordance with the Clean Air Act (CAA) with regard to the National Emissions Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for the Surface Coating of Metal Cans and the NESHAP for the Surface Coating of Metal Coil. The EPA is proposing to find the risks due to emissions of air toxics from these source categories under the current standards to be acceptable and that the standards provide an ample margin of safety to protect public health. We are proposing no revisions to the numerical emission limits based on these analyses. The EPA is proposing to amend provisions addressing emissions during periods of startup, shutdown, and malfunction (SSM); to amend provisions regarding electronic reporting of performance test results; to amend provisions regarding monitoring requirements; and to make miscellaneous clarifying and technical corrections.
