FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jessica Winkler, U.S. Environmental 
Protection Agency, Region 10, Office of Ecosystems, Tribal and Public

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the ``Rules and Regulations'' section of 
this Federal Register, the EPA is correcting the currently codified 
coordinates for Site F at 40 CFR 228.15(n)(3) with the coordinates EPA 
inadvertently, through a typographical error, named 40 CFR 228.15(n)(4) 
at 71 FR 27396 (May 11, 2006). The EPA is also restoring the 
coordinates for Site H at 40 CFR 228.15(n)(4) which were overwritten 
through the EPA's typographical error. The EPA did not make a proposal 
prior to the direct final rule because we believe these actions are not 
controversial and do not expect comments that oppose them. We have 
explained the reasons for this action in the preamble to the direct 
final rule. Unless we get written comments which oppose this action 
during the comment period, the direct final rule will become effective 
on the date established in the preamble to the direct final rule, and 
we will not take further action on this proposal. If we get comments 
that oppose this action, we will withdraw the direct final rule and it 
will not take effect. We will then respond to public comments in a 
later final rule based on this proposal. You may not have another 
opportunity for comment. If you want to comment on this action, you 
must do so at this time. For additional information, please see the 
direct final rule published in the ``Rules and Regulations'' section of 
this Federal Register.

    Authority:  This action is issued under the authority of Section 
102 of the Marine Protection, Research, and Sanctuaries Act, 33 
U.S.C. 1401, 1411, 1412.

    Dated: June 3, 2010.
Dennis J. McLerran,
Regional Administrator, EPA Region 10.
