SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
NODA that is the subject of this notice,
and which was published in the Federal
Register on August 29, 2007 (72 FR
49714), announces the availability of
new information and data contained in
three documents that the Agency is
requesting public comments on,
concerning the management of CCW in
landfills and surface impoundments.
The three documents that the Agency is
requesting comments on are: A joint
U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and
EPA report entitled, Coal Combustion
Waste Management at Landfills and
Surface Impoundments, 1994–2004; a
draft risk assessment conducted by EPA
on the management of CCW in landfills
and surface impoundments; and EPA’s
damage case assessment. The Agency is
soliciting comments on the extent to
which the damage case information, the
results of the risk assessment, and the
new liner and ground water monitoring
information from the DOE/EPA report
should affect the Agency’s decisions.
EPA is also requesting direct comment
on the draft risk assessment document
to help inform a planned peer review.
In addition, the Agency has included in
the docket to the NODA a rulemaking
petition submitted by a number of
citizens’ groups. Furthermore, the
Agency has included in the docket to
the NODA two approaches regarding the
management of CCW, one prepared by
the electric utility industry and the
other prepared by a number of citizens’
groups. The Agency will consider all the
information provided through the
NODA, the comments and new
information submitted on the NODA, as
well as the results of a subsequent peer
review of the risk assessment, as it
continues to follow-up on its Regulatory
Determination for CCW disposed of in
landfills and surface impoundments.
The comment period for the NODA
was scheduled to end on November 27,
2007. However, a number of
environmental groups (Earthjustice,
Environmental Integrity Project, Clean
Air Task Force, Kentucky Resources
Council, Army for a Clean Environment,
and Delaware Riverkeeper Network)
have requested that EPA extend the
comment period by 75 days, noting that
PO 00000 Frm 00061 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703
additional time is needed in order to
comment meaningfully on the
information contained in the NODA and
to perform extensive analysis on several
documents, some of which are highly
technical. The commenters also noted
that, due to the length and complexity
of the draft risk assessment (‘‘Human
and Ecological Risk Assessment of Coal
Combustion Wastes’’), it will be
necessary to engage expert review that
will consequently increase the time
necessary to prepare their comments.
EPA believed that the 90-day public
comment period originally established
was reasonable. However, since the
Agency will be considering all the
information provided through the
comments and new information
submitted on the NODA, as well as the
results of a subsequent peer review of
the risk assessment, we believe it is
important that commenters have
adequate time to analyze the data
noticed in the NODA so that they may
provide informed and meaningful
comments to the Agency. Therefore, we
have decided to extend the comment
period by 60 days, thereby extending
the comment period to 150 days. We
believe an additional 60 days is
adequate for commenters to analyze the
data noticed in the NODA and available
in the docket to the NODA. Because the
60-day extension ends on January 26,
2008, which is a Saturday, the comment
period will actually be extended until
the following Monday, January 28, 2008.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Deborah Blue, Special Assistant to the
Designated Federal Officer (DFO) at
(202) 418–1466 or
Deborah.Blue@fcc.gov. The fax number
is: (202) 418–2345. The TTY number is:
(202) 418–0484.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Released
October 2, 2007.
The GSA has renewed the charter of
the North American Numbering Council
(Council) through September 27, 2009.
The Council will continue to advise the
Federal Communications Commission
(Commission) on rapidly evolving and
competitively significant numbering
issues facing the telecommunications
industry.
In October 1995, the Commission
established the North American
Numbering Council, a federal advisory
committee created pursuant to the
Federal Advisory Committee Act, 5
U.S.C., App. 2 (1988), to advise the
Commission on issues related to North
American Numbering Plan (NANP)
administration in the United States,
including local number portability
administration issues. The original
charter of the Council was effective on
October 5, 1995, establishing an initial
two-year term. Amended charters were
filed on October 5, 1997, October 5,
1999, October 5, 2001, October 5, 2003,
and September 26, 2005 each renewing
the term of the charter for an additional
two years.
Since the last charter renewal, the
Council has provided the Commission
with critically important
recommendations regarding number
administration, such as the
development and recommendation of
interim and permanent guidelines for
pseudo Automatic Number
Identification administration. In
addition, the Council developed and
recommended technical requirements
for a request for proposals associated
with a new Pooling Administrator (PA)
contract. The Council also provided
detailed evaluations of the North
American Numbering Plan
Administrator (NANPA) and the PA.
The Council will continue to evaluate
the NANPA’s and the PA’s
performances annually.
Moreover, the Council is presently
rwilkins on PROD1PC63 with NOTICES
considering and formulating
recommendations on other important
numbering-related issues that will
require work beyond the term of the
present charter. The term of the
VerDate Aug<31>2005 17:08 Oct 09, 2007 Jkt 214001
Council’s renewed charter begins
September 27, 2007 and runs through
September 27, 2009.
The value of this federal advisory
committee to the telecommunications
industry and to the American public
cannot be overstated. Numbers are the
means by which consumers gain access
to, and reap the benefits of, the public
switched telephone network. The
Council’s recommendations to the
Commission will facilitate fair and
efficient number administration in the
United States, and will ensure that
numbering resources are available to all
telecommunications service providers
on a fair and equitable basis, consistent
with the requirements of the
Telecommunications Act of 1996.
