Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) and Nonattainment
New Source Review (NSR): Inclusion of Fugitive Emissions; Final Rule;
Stay
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: In this final action, EPA is issuing a stay for 18 months of
the inclusion of fugitive emissions requirements in the federal
Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) program published in the
Federal Register on December 19, 2008, in the final rule entitled,
``Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) and Nonattainment New
Source Review (NSR): Reconsideration of Fugitive Emissions''
(``Fugitive Emissions Rule''). The Fugitive Emissions Rule under the
federal PSD program requires that fugitive emissions be included in
determining whether a physical or operational change results in a major
modification only for sources in industries that have been designated
through rulemaking under section 302(j) of the Clean Air Act (Act or
CAA). The existing stay is in effect for 3 months; that is, from
December 31, 2009 until March 31, 2010. This action puts in place an
additional stay for 18 months, which we believe will allow for
sufficient time for EPA to propose, take public comment on, and issue a
final action concerning the inclusion of fugitive emissions in the
federal PSD program.
DATES: The amendments to 40 CFR parts 51 and 52 in this rule are
effective from April 1, 2010 through October 3, 2011. Effective April
1, 2010, the following Code of Federal Regulations sections are
administratively stayed until October 3, 2011: 40 CFR

interested parties to present scientific and technical comments on
draft IRIS health assessments to EPA and other interested parties
during the public comment period and before the peer review meeting.
EPA welcomes the comments that will be provided to the Agency by the
listening session participants. The comments will be considered by the
Agency as it revises the draft assessment in response to the
independent SAB peer review and the public comments. All presentations
submitted to EPA according to the instructions below will become part
of the official public record.
EPA is releasing this draft assessment solely for the purpose of

facilities on the CERCLA NPL. Among these statutory requirements is a
mandate for the Administrator of ATSDR to prepare toxicological

Substances. This identifies 275 hazardous substances that ATSDR and EPA
have determined pose the most significant potential threat to human
health (http://www.atsdr.cdc.gov/cercla/07list.html). The availability
