MEMORANDUM

Date:	June 1, 2007

Subject:  	Summary of a verbal comment on the SAFETEA-LU transportation
conformity NPRM 

From: 		Rudolph Kapichak

State Measures and Conformity Group, OTAQ

		

To:		Docket EPA-HQ-OAR-2006-0612

	On May 29, 2007, I spoke with a representative of the Kentucky
Transportation Cabinet.  He asked if EPA had considered revising the
transportation conformity rule’s list of exempt projects contained in
40 CFR 93.126 to further clarify the types of projects that are either
exempt or non-exempt under “Transportation enhancement activities.” 
The commenter was concerned that some types of non-exempt projects
besides the two examples listed in 40 CFR 93.126 could be funded with
transportation enhancement funds.
