Agency Information Collection Activities; Proposed Collection and Request for Comment; Pollution Prevention (P2) Grantee Data Collection in Standard Electronic Format
In compliance with the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA), this document announces the availability of and solicits public comment on an Information Collection Request (ICR) that EPA is planning to submit to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB). The ICR, entitled: ``Pollution Prevention (P2) Grantee Data Collection in Standard Electronic Format'' (EPA ICR No. 2728.01; OMB Control No. 2070-NEW), represents a new ICR. Before submitting the ICR to OMB for review and approval under the PRA, EPA is soliciting comments on specific aspects of the information collection that is summarized in this document. The ICR and accompanying material are available in the docket for public review and comment.
Finding of Failure To Attain the 1987 24-Hour PM10
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to determine that the West Pinal County, Arizona nonattainment area did not attain the 1987 24-hour national ambient air quality standards (NAAQS or ``standards'') for particulate matter with a diameter of 10 micrometers or smaller (PM10) by its December 31, 2022 ``Serious'' area attainment date. This proposal is based on the EPA's calculation of the preliminary PM10 design value for the nonattainment area over the 2020-2022 period. If the EPA makes a final determination that West Pinal County has failed to attain the PM10 NAAQS by its attainment date, the State will be required to submit a revision to the Arizona state implementation plan (SIP) that, among other elements, provides for expeditious attainment of the PM10 standards and for a five percent annual reduction in the emissions of direct PM10 or a PM10 plan precursor pollutant in the nonattainment area.
Air Plan Limited Approval and Limited Disapproval; California; Eastern Kern Air Pollution Control District
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing a limited approval and limited disapproval of revisions to the Eastern Kern Air Pollution Control District (EKAPCD or ``District'') portion of the California State Implementation Plan (SIP). This revision concerns emissions of oxides of nitrogen (NOX) from Portland cement kilns. We are proposing a limited approval of a local rule to regulate these emissions sources under the Clean Air Act (CAA) because the rule would strengthen the current SIP-approved version of the EKAPCD's Portland cement kiln rule. We are proposing a limited disapproval of this revision due to the presence of exemptions for periods of startup, shutdown, and malfunction (breakdown), which are inconsistent with CAA requirements. We are taking comments on this proposal and plan to follow with a final action.
Request for Public Nominations of Experts To Serve on a Review Panel
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is seeking nominations for technical experts to serve as Special Government Employees (SGEs) on a review panel under the authority of the Board of Scientific Counselors (BOSC), a federal advisory committee to the Office of Research and Development (ORD). Selected experts will review ORD's draft documents detailing scientific studies supporting the development of transcriptomic-based toxicity values and their implementation as a new EPA Transcriptomic Assessment Product (ETAP). The ETAP is a proposed ORD assessment product that utilizes a standardized short-term in vivo study design and data analysis procedures to develop transcriptomic-based toxicity values for data poor chemicals. The review will take place between April and July 2023. Submission of nominations should be made via the BOSC website at: https://www.epa.gov/bosc.
Inventory of U.S. Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Sinks: 1990-2021
The Draft Inventory of U.S. Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Sinks: 1990-2021 is available for public review. EPA requests recommendations for improving the overall quality of the inventory report to be finalized in April 2023, as well as subsequent inventory reports.
