Environmental Impacts Statements;
Notice of Availability
Responsible Agency: Office of Federal Activities, General
Information (202) 564-1399 or http://www.epa.gov/compliance/nepa/
Weekly receipt of Environmental Impact Statements
Filed 04/04/2011 Through 04/08/2011
Pursuant to 40 CFR 1506.9.
Notice
In accordance with Section 309(a) of the Clean Air Act, EPA is
required to make its comments on EISs issued by other Federal agencies
public. Historically, EPA met this mandate by publishing weekly notices
of availability of EPA comments, which includes a brief summary of
EPA's comment letters, in the Federal Register. Since February 2008,
EPA has included its comment letters on EISs on its Web site at: http://www.epa.gov/compliance/nepa/eisdata.html. Including the entire EIS
comment letters on the Web site satisfies the Section 309(a)
requirement to make EPA's comments on EISs available to the public.
Accordingly, on March 31, 2010, EPA discontinued the publication of the
notice of availability of EPA comments in the Federal Register.
