Mr.
Formica
called
to
inquire
about
EPA's
plans
to
move
forward
with
any
additional
rulemaking
on
the
issue
of
RMRR.
Specifically
he
wondered
whether
we
would
be
finalizing
the
allowance
approach
or
proposing
alternatives.
I
indicated
that
all
of
these
options
are
under
discussion.
We
received
a
substantial
number
of
comments
on
the
allowance
approach.
We
also
received
suggestions
on
other
approaches
which
would
either
build
upon
or
be
a
substitute
for
the
allowance
approach.
The
Agency
has
not
decided
how
to
proceed
but
I
expect
a
decision
within
the
next
3
months.
