BILLING CODE 6717-01-P ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY [EPA-HQ-OAR-2002-0036; FRL-9272-6] Completion of the Requirement To Promulgate Emission Standards AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). ACTION: Notice. SUMMARY: This notice announces that EPA has completed the emission standards required by sections 112(c)(3) and (k)(3)(B) and 112(c)(6) of the Clean Air Act (CAA).

(CAA)requires that, by November 15, 2000, EPA promulgate emission standards to assure that area sources accounting for 90 percent of the aggregate area source emissions of each of the 30 urban hazardous air pollutants

(HAP)are subject to regulation. 1 Similarly, section 112(c)(6) of the CAA requires that, by November 15, 2000, EPA promulgate emission standards to assure that sources accounting for not less than 90 percent of the aggregate emissions of each of the seven HAP enumerated in section 112(c)(6)are subject to standards. As a result of lawsuits filed by Sierra Club alleging that EPA has failed to complete these actions by the statutory deadline, EPA is under a court order to complete these obligations. Under the order, which was most recently amended on January 20, 2011, EPA must complete these obligations by February 21, 2011. 1 For a list of the 30 urban HAP, *please see* National Air Toxics Program: The Integrate Urban Strategy, 64 FR 38706 (July 19, 1999). The following two technical memoranda document the actions the Agency has taken to meet these requirements, Topham to Docket, *Emission Standards for Meeting the 90 Percent Requirement Under Section 112(c)(3) and Section 112(k)(3)(B) of the Clean Air Act* (found in Docket ID EPA-HQ-OAR-2002-0036); and Topham to Docket, *Emission Standards for Meeting the 90 Percent Requirement Under Section 112(c)(6) of the Clean Air Act* (found in Docket ID EPA-HQ-OAR-2004-0505). These documents are available in the dockets for these actions. Based on my review of these two documents, I conclude that EPA has completed sufficient standards to meet the 90 percent requirement under both sections 112(c)(3) and(k)(3)(B), and section 112(c)(6). Dated: February 21, 2011. Lisa P. Jackson, Administrator. [FR Doc. 2011-4489 Filed 3-18-11; 8:45 am]
