AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: EPA is finalizing amendments to the National Emission
Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) from the Portland
Cement Manufacturing Industry and to the New Source Performance
Standards (NSPS) for Portland Cement Plants.
    The final amendments to the NESHAP add or revise, as applicable,
emission limits for mercury, total hydrocarbons (THC), and particulate
matter (PM) from new and existing kilns located at major and area
sources, and for hydrochloric acid (HCl) from new and existing kilns
located at major sources. The standards for new kilns apply to
facilities that commence construction, modification, or reconstruction
after May 6, 2009.
    The final amendments to the NSPS add or revise, as applicable,
emission limits for PM, opacity, nitrogen oxides (NOX), and
sulfur dioxide (SO2) for facilities that commence
construction, modification, or reconstruction after June 16, 2008. The
final rule also includes additional testing and monitoring requirements
for affected sources.

DATES: These final rules are effective on November 8, 2010. The
incorporation by reference of certain publications listed in this rule
is approved by the Director of the Federal Register on November 8,
2010.

ADDRESSES: EPA has established two separate dockets for these actions:

Drinking Water Strategy Contaminants as Group(s)--Notice of
Public Stakeholder Meeting

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: On March 22, 2010, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
Administrator Lisa P. Jackson announced the Drinking Water Strategy, a
new vision to expand public health protection for drinking water by
going beyond the traditional framework. The Drinking Water Strategy
includes the following four principles: Addressing some contaminants as
group(s) rather than one at a time so that enhancement of drinking
water protection can be achieved cost-effectively; fostering
development of new drinking water technologies to address health risks
posed by a broad array of contaminants; using the authority of multiple
statutes to help protect drinking water; and partnering with States to
share more complete data from monitoring at public water systems.
    The purpose of this notice is to announce that EPA will be holding
a public meeting on September 21, 2010, to engage stakeholders on the
first of the four principles, addressing contaminants as group(s). EPA
plans to discuss approaches to regulate contaminants as groups and
potential contaminant groups, share advantages and disadvantages of
various groups, identify issues needing further attention, and discuss
potential solutions. EPA invites the public and stakeholders to
participate in this information exchange on addressing contaminants as
group(s).

Date and Location:  The public meeting will be held on Tuesday,
September 21, 2010 (8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m., Eastern Daylight Savings
Time), at the EPA East Building, Room 1153, 1201 Constitution Avenue,
NW., Washington, DC 20460.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For technical inquiries, contact Shari
Bauman, Standards and Risk Management Division, Office of Ground Water
and Drinking Water (MC 4607M),
Environmental Protection Agency, 1200 Pennsylvania Ave., NW.,
Washington, DC 20460 at (202) 564-0293 or bauman.shari@epa.gov. For

Energy Conservation Program: Test Procedures for Walk-In Coolers
and Walk-In Freezers

AGENCY: Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy, Department of
Energy.

ACTION: Supplemental notice of proposed rulemaking.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) previously published a
notice of proposed rulemaking to adopt test procedures for measuring
the energy consumption of walk-in coolers and walk-in freezers,
pursuant to the Energy Policy and Conservation Act (EPCA), as amended.
DOE is continuing to consider those proposals, but is now soliciting
comments on several alternative proposed options. Once any final test
procedure is effective, any representation as to the energy use of
walk-in equipment must reflect the results of testing that equipment
using the test procedure. Concurrently, DOE is undertaking an energy
conservation standards rulemaking for this equipment. If DOE receives
data in this test procedure rulemaking that are pertinent to the
development of standards, it will use that data in evaluating potential
standards for this equipment. Once these standards are promulgated, the
adopted test procedures will be used to determine compliance with the
standards.

DATES: DOE will accept comments, data, and information regarding this
supplemental notice of proposed rulemaking (SNOPR) no later than
October 12, 2010. See section V of this SNOPR for details.

ADDRESSES: Any comments submitted must identify the SNOPR for Test
Procedures for Walk-In Coolers and Walk-In Freezers and provide docket
number EERE-2008-BT-TP-0014 and/or Regulation Identifier Number (RIN)
1904-AB85. Comments may be submitted using any of the following
methods:
    1. Federal eRulemaking Portal: http://www.regulations.gov. Follow
the instructions for submitting comments.
    2. E-mail: WICF-2008-TP-0014@hq.doe.gov. Include the docket number

ICLUS v1.3 User's Manual: ArcGIS Tools and Datasets for Modeling
U.S. Housing Density Growth

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice of availability.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is announcing
the availability of a final Geographic Information System (GIS) tool
and final user's guide titled, ``ICLUS v1.3 User's Manual: ArcGIS Tools
and Datasets for Modeling U.S. Housing Density Growth'' (EPA/600/R-09/
143F). The tool and its documentation were prepared by the National
Center for Environmental Assessment (NCEA) within EPA's Office of
Research and Development. The GIS tool can be used to modify land use
scenarios for the conterminous United States. ICLUS stands for
Integrated Climate and Land Use Scenarios, a project which is described
in the 2009 EPA Report, ``Land-Use Scenarios: National-Scale Housing-
Density Scenarios Consistent with Climate Change Storylines.'' These
scenarios are broadly consistent with global-scale, peer-reviewed
storylines of population growth and economic development, which are used by climate change modelers to develop projections of future climate.

DATES: The GIS tool and documentation will be available on or about
September 8, 2010.

ADDRESSES: ``ICLUS v1.3 User's Manual: ArcGIS Tools and Datasets for
Modeling U.S. Housing Density Growth'' and the geoprocessing tools will
be available to download via an ftp site on the NCEA's home page under
the Recent Additions and Publications menus at http://www.epa.gov/ncea.
A limited number of paper copies of the User's Manual are available
from the Information Management Team, NCEA; telephone: 703-347-8561;
facsimile: 703-347-8691. If you are requesting a paper copy, please
provide your name, your mailing address, and the final document title,
``ICLUS v1.3 User's Manual: ArcGIS Tools and Datasets for Modeling U.S.
Housing Density Growth'' (EPA/600/R-09/143F).

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For technical information, contact Dr.
Britta Bierwagen, NCEA; telephone: 703-347-8613; facsimile: 703-347-

SUMMARY: In this document, EPA is making a correction to the Action to
Ensure Authority To Issue Permits Under the Prevention of Significant

Implementation Plan; Public Hearing to be held on September 14, 2010
(published in the Federal Register on August 30, 2010, 75 FR 52916). We
inadvertently within the summary section of the document stated that

at the EPA Ariel Rios East building, Room 1153, 1301 Constitution
Avenue, Washington, DC 20460. The public hearing will convene at 9 a.m.

hour after the last registered speaker has spoken. The EPA will make
every effort to accommodate all speakers that arrive and register. A
lunch break is scheduled from 12:30 p.m. until 2 p.m. Because this
hearing is being held at U.S. Government facilities, individuals
planning to attend the hearing should be prepared to show valid picture
identification to the security staff in order to gain access to the

any personal belongings you bring with you. Upon leaving the building,
you will be required to return this property pass to the security desk.
No large signs will be allowed in the building, cameras may only be
used outside of the building, and demonstrations will not be allowed on
Federal property for security reasons. The EPA Web Site for the
rulemaking, which includes the proposal and information about the
public hearing, can be found at: http://www.epa.gov/nsr.
