    These permits grant approval to the facilities identified in the 
permits to operate the air emission sources identified in the permits 
in accordance with the terms and conditions of the respective permits. 
This notice is published in accordance with 40 CFR 71.11(l)(7), which 
requires notice of any final agency action regarding a Federal 
operating permit to be published in the Federal Register.
    The Federal operating permits issued by EPA to the facilities 
identified above incorporate all applicable air quality requirements 
and require monitoring to ensure compliance with these requirements. 
Submittal of periodic reports of all required monitoring, as well as 
submittal of an annual compliance certification, are also required. The 
Federal operating permits have a term not to exceed five years, and a 
timely application for permit renewal must be submitted to EPA prior to 
permit expiration in order to continue operation of the permitted 
source.
    The provisions of 40 CFR part 71 govern issuance of these permits. 
EPA received public comments on the CFI, Three Rivers, and Northwest 
Pipeline permits. In accordance with the requirements of 40 CFR 
71.11(j), EPA responded to all comments received on

[[Page 6283]]

these permits. EPA received no comments on the permits for Empire 
Lumber and CIPV. Pursuant to 40 CFR 71.11(i), EPA provided copies of 
the final permits to the applicant and each person who submitted 
written comments on a permit or requested notice of the final permit 
decision. No one requested review of any of the final permits by the 
Environmental Appeals Board within 30 days of receipt of the final 
permits in accordance with 40 CFR 71.11(l). Thus, pursuant to 40 CFR 
71.11(i) and (l), the permits became final on the dates indicated in 
the chart above. A petition to the Environmental Appeals Board under 40 
CFR 71.11(l) is, under 42 U.S.C. 307(b), a prerequisite to seeking 
judicial review of the final agency action. See 40 CFR 71.11(l)(4). 40 
CFR 71.11(l)(7) requires notice of any final agency action regarding a 
Federal operating permit to be published in the Federal Register. This 
notice satisfies that requirement.
