SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In response to a request from several

activities, the EPA is extending the public comment period from June
11, 1997, to July 11, 1997, on the Advanced Notice of Proposed
Rulemaking for listing research and development facilities on the
source category list. The EPA agrees that an extension of the comment
period will provide for more meaningful, constructive comments on the
ANPR. Having extended the comment period, the EPA nonetheless
encourages commenters to submit as many of their comments as possible
before July 11, this would assist the EPA in its considerations of the
issues raised. Due to the unique nature of R&D activities and the EPA'a
request in the ANPR for specific information and recommendations on how
to list R&D facilities, the extension to the comment period will
provide the EPA with more detailed comments that will result in future
time savings on the project.
