Expedited Approval of Alternative Test Procedures for the
Analysis of Contaminants Under the Safe Drinking Water Act; Analysis

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This action announces the Environmental Protection Agency's
(EPA's) approval of alternative testing methods for use in measuring
the levels of contaminants in drinking water and determining compliance
with national primary drinking water regulations. The Safe Drinking
Water Act (SDWA) authorizes EPA to approve the use of alternative
testing methods through publication in the Federal Register. EPA is
using this streamlined authority to make 12 additional methods
available for analyzing drinking water samples required by regulation.
This expedited approach provides public water systems, laboratories,
and primacy agencies with more timely access to new measurement
techniques and greater flexibility in the selection of analytical
methods, thereby reducing monitoring costs while maintaining public
health protection.
DATES: This action is effective June 8, 2010.

ANNOUNCEMENT 2
Subject: AIR - PR. EPA. Standards of Performance for Stationary Compression Ignition and Spark Ignition Internal Combustion Engines
[Federal Register: June 8, 2010 (Volume 75, Number 109)]
[Proposed Rules]

RIN 2060-AP67
Standards of Performance for Stationary Compression Ignition and
Spark Ignition Internal Combustion Engines
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: EPA is proposing revisions to the standards of performance for
new stationary compression ignition internal combustion engines under
section 111(b) of the Clean Air Act. The proposed rule would implement
more stringent standards for stationary compression ignition engines
with displacement greater than or equal to 10 liters per cylinder and
less than 30 liters per cylinder, consistent with recent revisions to
standards for similar mobile source marine engines. The action also
proposes to provide additional flexibility to owners and operators of
affected engines, and would correct minor mistakes in the initial
standards of performance. In addition, the action proposes revisions to
the requirements for engines with displacement at or above 30 liters
per cylinder to align more closely with recent standards for similar
mobile source marine engines, and for engines in rural portions of
Alaska that are not accessible by the Federal Aid Highway System.
Finally, the proposal would make minor revisions to the standards of
performance for new stationary spark ignition internal combustion
engines to mirror certain revisions proposed for compression ignition
engines, which would provide consistency where appropriate for the
regulation of stationary internal combustion engines. The proposed
standards would reduce nitrogen oxides by an estimated 1,100 tons per
year, particulate matter by an estimated 38 tons per year, and
hydrocarbons by an estimated 18 tons per year by the year 2030.
DATES: Comments must be received on or before August 9, 2010.
