SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In today's action, EPA is providing
additional time to submit public comment on the following proposed
rules: Emissions standards for industrial, commercial, and
institutional boilers and process heaters located at major sources (the
major source boilers rule); emissions standards for industrial,
commercial, and institutional boilers located at area sources (the area
source boilers rule); and emissions standards for commercial and
industrial solid waste incineration units (the CISWI rule). In the
notices of proposed rulemaking for these rules, EPA established a
deadline of July 19, 2010, for submission of public comments. On June
9, 2010, EPA extended the public comment period to August 3, 2010. 75
FR 32682. Today, EPA is further extending the deadline for providing
comments on these proposed rules to August 23, 2010.
EPA also notes that certain additional materials relating to the
maximum achievable control technology (MACT) floors have been added to
the dockets for the major and area source boilers proposed rules and
the CISWI proposed rule since the date of publication of the proposed
rules. At the time of publication of the proposed rules, the docket
contained Adobe Acrobat(copyright) versions of the spreadsheets used in
the MACT floor calculations, as well as associated memoranda describing
in detail EPA's calculation of the MACT floor for each proposed set of
emissions standards. Since the publication date, EPA has added to the
docket the same spreadsheets in Excel format.
