40 CFR Part 90
[FRL-5017-7]
Control of Air Pollution; Emission Standards for New Nonroad
Spark-Ignition Engines At or Below 19 Kilowatts
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking, reopening of comment period.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: EPA announces a reopening of the comment period for the
proposed nonroad engines at or below 19 kilowatts (25 horsepower)
emission standards rulemaking. The Agency has decided to extend the
comment period in response to engine and equipment manufacturers'
requests that EPA allow a longer period to enable sufficient
development of comments.
DATES: Written comments relating to the proposed rule must be submitted
on or before August 5, 1994.
ADDRESSES: Interested parties may submit written comments (in
triplicate if possible) for EPA consideration by addressing them as
follows: EPA Air and Radiation Docket, Attention: Docket Number A-93-
25, 401 M Street SW, Washington, DC 20460. Materials relevant to this
rulemaking are contained in this docket and may be viewed at this
location from 8:00 a.m. until 4:00 p.m. Monday through Friday. As
provided in 40 CFR part 2, a reasonable fee may be charged by EPA for
photocopying docket materials.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Lucie Audette, Office of Mobile
Sources, Certification Division, (313) 741-7878.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Authority for the proposed new spark-
ignition engine emission standards is granted to EPA by sections 203,
204, 205, 206, 207, 208, 209, 213, 215, 216, and 301(a) of the Clean
Air Act (CAA) as amended. The notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) was
published in the Federal Register on Monday, May 16, 1994 (59 FR
25399). The original close of the comment period was July 15, 1994. The
Engine Manufacturers Association (EMA) and the Outdoor Power Equipment
Institute (OPEI) approached EPA with requests for an extension of the
comment period in order to allow additional time to submit comments.
The Agency has an interest in examining comprehensive information
from interested parties that may be useful in drafting a more effective
final rule, and therefore has extended the comment period until August
5, 1994.
Dated: July 11, 1994.
Mary Nichols,
Assistant Administrator.
