SUMMARY: The EPA is announcing that the public comment period for the

required under CAA section 307(d)(5)(iv) to accept comments for at 
least 30 days after a public hearing. Two public hearings were held on 
the proposed rule; one on June 4, 2004, in Alexandria, VA, and the 
second on June 15, 2004, in Denver, CO. Because we held our second 
public hearing on June 15, 2004, the public comment period will remain 
open until July 15, 2004.

DATES: Comments must be submitted by July 15, 2004.

EPA electronically, by mail, by facsimile, or through hand delivery/
courier. Please refer to the BART rule for the addresses and detailed 
instructions.
