Extension of Public Comment Period for Proposed Rule on the 
Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans; Texas; Excess 
Emissions During Startup, Shutdown, Maintenance, and Malfunction 
Activities

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Extension of public comment period.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The EPA is announcing a 14-day extension of the public comment 
period for the proposed ``Approval and Promulgation of Implementation 
Plans; Texas; Excess Emissions During Startup, Shutdown, Maintenance, 
and Malfunction Activities.'' As initially published in the Federal 
Register on May 13, 2010 (75 FR 26892), written comments on the 
proposal for rulemaking were to be submitted to EPA on or before June 
14, 2010 (a 30-day public comment period). Since publication, EPA has 
received requests for additional time to submit comments. Therefore, 
the public comment period will now end on June 28, 2010. This extension 
is time-limited because the rule has to be finalized by October 31, 
2010 under the terms of a settlement agreement.

DATES: The public comment period for this proposed rule is extended 
until June 28, 2010.
