SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is extending the 
comment period for a proposed rule that published July 19, 2024. The 
current comment period for the proposed rule was set to end on August 
19, 2024. Due to a technical issue, some of the background materials 
for the proposed rule were not made available to www.regulations.gov 
until July 24, 2024. The EPA is therefore extending the comment period 
for the proposed action to August 26, 2024.

submissions (audio, video, etc.) must be accompanied by a written 
comment. The written comment is considered the official comment and 
should include discussion of all points you wish to make. The EPA will 
generally not consider comments or comment contents located outside of
