\1\ None.
The Federal operating permits issued by EPA to the facilities
identified above incorporate all applicable air quality requirements
and require monitoring to ensure compliance with these requirements.
Submittal of periodic reports of all required monitoring, as well as
submittal of an annual compliance certification, are also required. The
Federal operating permits have a term not to exceed five years, and a
timely application for permit renewal must be submitted to EPA prior to
permit expiration in order to continue operation of the permitted
source.
The provisions of 40 CFR part 71 govern issuance of these permits.
EPA published a notice and opportunity to comment in a newspaper of
general circulation in the area of the facility for each permit issued.
The EPA received public comments on the Transwestern Pipeline Company;
El Paso Natural Gas Company; El Paso Field Services; and William Field
Services, Los Mestenios Compressor Station permits. In accordance with
the requirements of 40 CFR 71.11(j), EPA responded to all comments
received on these permits. The EPA received no comments on the permit
for William Field Services, Ojito. Pursuant to 40 CFR 71.11(i), EPA
provided copies of the final permits to the applicant and each person
who submitted written comments on a permit or requested notice of the
final permit decision. No one requested review of any of the final
permits by the Environmental Appeals Board within 30 days of receipt of
the final permits in accordance with 40 CFR 71.11(l). Thus, pursuant to
40 CFR 71.11(i) and (l), the permits became final on the dates
indicated in the chart above. A petition to the Environmental Appeals
Board under 40 CFR 71.11(l) is, under 42 U.S.C. 307(b), a prerequisite
to seeking judicial review of the final agency action. See 40 CFR
71.11(l)(4).
40 CFR 71.11(l)(7) requires notice of any final agency action
regarding a Federal operating permit to be published in the Federal
Register. This notice satisfies that requirement.
Dated: July 21, 2004.
Lynda F. Carroll,
Acting Regional Administrator.
