inappropriate, must raise all reasonably ascertainable

issues and submit all reasonably available arguments supporting their 
position by the close of the public comment period (including any public 
hearing) under Sec. 124.10. Any supporting materials which are submitted 
shall be included in full and may not be incorporated by reference, 
unless they are already part of the administrative record in the same 
proceeding, or consist of State or Federal statutes and regulations, EPA 
documents of general applicability, or other generally available 
reference materials. Commenters shall make supporting materials not 
already included in the administrative record available to EPA as 
directed by the Regional Administrator. (A comment period longer than 30 
days may be necessary to give commenters a reasonable opportunity to 
comply with the requirements of this section. Additional time shall be 
granted under Sec. 124.10 to the extent that a commenter who requests 
additional time demonstrates the need for such time.)
