Modified Sources,'' and ``Review of New Sources and Modifications in 
Indian Country: Federal Implementation Plan for Managing Air Emissions 
from True Minor Sources Engaged in Oil and Natural Gas Production in 
Indian Country.'' Two hearings will be held on September 23, 2015, 
simultaneously--one in Denver, CO, and one in Dallas, TX. One hearing 
will be on September 29, 2015, in Pittsburgh, PA.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The public hearings will be held to accept 
oral comments on all three proposed rulemakings listed in the summary 
section of this document. Commenters may choose to speak on one or more 
of the three proposed rulemakings.
    All three hearings will begin at 9:00 a.m. and will conclude at 
8:00 p.m. (local time). There will be a lunch break from 12:00 p.m. to 
1:00 p.m. (local time) and a dinner break from 5:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. 
(local time). To register to speak at the hearings, please use the 
online registration form available at http://www.epa.gov/airquality/oilandgas/registration.html. For questions regarding registration, 
please contact Aimee St. Clair at (919) 541-1063. The last day to pre-
register to speak at the Denver, CO, and Dallas, TX, hearings will be 
September 18, 2015. The last day to pre-register to speak at the 
Pittsburgh, PA, hearing will be September 23, 2015. Additionally, 
requests to speak will be taken the day of the hearings at the hearings 
registration desk, although preferences on speaking times may not be 
able to be fulfilled. Please note that registration requests received 
before the hearings will be confirmed by the EPA via email. We cannot 
guarantee that we can accommodate all timing requests and will provide 
requestors with the next available speaking time, in the event that 
their requested time is taken. Please note that the time outlined in 
the confirmation email will be the scheduled speaking time. Depending 
on the flow of the day, times may fluctuate. If you require the service 
of a translator or special accommodations such as audio description, we 
ask that you pre-register for the Denver, CO, and Dallas, TX, hearings 
no later than September 18, 2015, and the Pittsburgh, PA, hearing no 
later than September 23, 2015, as we may not be able to arrange such 
accommodations without advance notice. Please note that any updates 
made to any aspect of the hearing will be posted online at http://www.epa.gov/airquality/oilandgas/. While the EPA expects the hearings 
to go forward as set forth above, we ask that you monitor our Web site 
or contact Aimee St. Clair at (919) 541-1063 to determine if there are 
any updates to the information on the hearings. The EPA does not intend 
to publish a document in the Federal Register announcing any such 
updates.
    Oral testimony will be limited to 5 minutes for each commenter. The 
EPA encourages commenters to provide the EPA with a copy of their oral 
testimony electronically (via email) before the hearings and in hard 
copy form at the hearings.
    The hearings will provide interested parties the opportunity to 
present data, views, or arguments concerning the proposed actions. The 
EPA will make every effort to accommodate all speakers who wish to 
register to speak at the hearing venues on the day of the hearings. The 
EPA may ask clarifying questions during the oral presentations, but 
will not respond to the presentations at that time. Written statements 
and supporting information submitted during the comment period will be 
considered with the same weight as oral comments and supporting 
information presented at the public hearings. Verbatim transcripts of 
the hearings and written statements will be included in the dockets for 
each rulemaking. The EPA plans for the

[[Page 51992]]

hearings to run on schedule; however, due to on-site schedule 
fluctuations, actual speaking times may shift slightly.
    Because the Denver, CO, and Pittsburgh, PA, hearings are being held 
at United States government facilities, individuals planning to attend 
these hearings should be prepared to show valid picture identification 
to the security staff in order to gain access to the meeting room. 
Please note that the REAL ID Act, passed by Congress in 2005, 
established new requirements for entering federal facilities. If your 
driver's license is issued by American Samoa, Louisiana, Minnesota, New 
Hampshire or New York, you must present an additional form of 
identification to enter the federal building. Acceptable alternative 
forms of identification include: Federal employee badges, passports, 
enhanced driver's licenses, and military identification cards. For 
additional information for the status of your state regarding REAL ID, 
go to http://www.dhs.gov/real-id-enforcement-brief. In addition, you 
will need to obtain a property pass for any personal belongings you 
bring with you. Upon leaving the buildings, you will be required to 
return this property pass to the security desk. No large signs will be 
allowed in the buildings, cameras may only be used outside of the 
buildings, and demonstrations will not be allowed on federal property 
for security reasons.
    At all of the hearing locations, atttendees will be asked to go 
through metal detectors. To help facilitate this process, please be 
advised that you will be asked to remove all items from all pockets and 
place them in provided bins for screening; remove laptops, phones, or 
other electronic devices from their carrying case and place in provided 
bins for screening; avoid shoes with metal shanks, toe guards, or 
supports as a part of their construction; remove any metal belts, metal 
belt buckles, large jewelry, watches; and follow the instructions of 
the guard if identified for secondary screening. Additionally, no 
weapons (e.g., pocket knives) or drugs or drug paraphernalia (e.g., 
marijuana) will be allowed in the buildings. We recommend that you 
arrive 20 minutes in advance of your speaking time in Denver, CO, 
Dallas, TX, and Pittsburgh, PA, to allow time to go through security 
and to check in with the registration desk.

How can I get copies of this document and other related information?

    The EPA has established separate dockets for all three of the 
proposed rulemakings (available at http://www.regulations.gov). For the 
proposed rulemaking titled, ``Source Determination for Certain Emission 
Units in the Oil and Natural Gas Sector,'' the Docket ID No. is EPA-HQ-
OAR-2013-0685. For the proposed rulemaking titled, ``Oil and Natural 
Gas Sector: Emission Standards for New and Modified Sources,'' the 
Docket ID No. is EPA-HQ-OAR-2010-0505. For the proposed rulemaking 
titled, ``Review of New Sources and Modifications in Indian Country: 
Federal Implementation Plan for Managing Air Emissions from True Minor 
Sources Engaged in Oil and Natural Gas Production in Indian Country,'' 
the Docket ID No. is EPA-HQ-OAR-2014-0606. All three proposed 
rulemakings are posted at http://www.epa.gov/airquality/oilandgas/actions.html. If you need assistance in accessing any information 
related to these rulemakings, please contact Ms. Aimee St. Clair,
