AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice of data availability: extension of comment period.

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

SUMMARY: Since publication of the notice of data availability (62 FR 
24212 (May 2, 1997)), EPA has received several requests to extend the 
comment period. Accordingly, the Agency is extending the comment period 
15 days to June 17, 1997.

DATES: The comment period is extended to June 17, 1997.

ADDRESSES: Commenters must send an original and two copies of their 
comments referencing docket number F-97-CS4A-FFFFF to: RCRA Docket 
Information Center, Office of Solid Waste (5305G), U.S. Environmental 
Protection Agency Headquarters (EPA, HQ), 401 M Street, S.W., 
Washington, DC 20460. Deliveries of comments should be made to the 
Arlington, Virginia address listed below. Comments may be submitted 
electronically through the Internet to: [email protected]. 
Comments in electronic format should also be identified by the docket 
number F-97-CS4A-FFFFF. All electronic comments must be submitted as an 
ASCII file avoiding the use of special characters and any form of 
encryption. For other information regarding submitting comments or 
viewing the comments received or supporting information, please refer 
to the proposed rule (61 FR 17358 (April 19, 1996)).
    Commenters should not submit electronically any confidential 
business information (CBI). An original and two copies of the CBI must 
be submitted under separate cover to: RCRA CBI Document Control 
Officer, Office of Solid Waste (5305W), U.S. EPA, 401 M Street, S.W., 
Washington, DC 20460.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On May 2, 1997, EPA published a notice of 
data availability. See 62 FR 24212. The Agency established a 30-day 
comment period and indicated that comments on the proposal would be 
accepted until June 2, 1997.
    To date, EPA has received requests to extend the comment period 
from Ash Grove Cement Company, Cement Kiln Recycling Coalition, 
Chemical Manufacturers Association, Coalition for Responsible Waste 
Incineration, Holnam, Molten Metal Technology, Safety-Kleen, and 
Solite. Commenters felt the complexity of some of the issues in the 
NODA and the availability of certain data fields within the emissions 
database warranted an extension. Accordingly, the Agency is extending 
the comment period 15 days to June 17, 1997 to provide for a 45-day 
comment period.
    Readers should again note that only comments about new information 
discussed in the May 2, 1997 notice will be considered by the Agency. 
Issues related solely to the April 19, 1996 proposed rule and other 
subsequent notices that are not directly affected by the documents or 
data referenced in today's Notice of Data Availability are not open for 
further comment.
