National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants: Primary
Lead Smelting
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Extension of public comment period.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: On February 17, 2011, EPA proposed amendments to the National
Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants for Primary Lead
Smelting (76 FR 9410). The EPA is extending the deadline for written
comments on the proposed amendments by 19 days to May 8, 2011. The EPA
received a request for this extension from the Doe Run Company, the
sole covered facility. Doe Run Company requested the extension in order
to analyze data and review the proposed amendments. EPA finds this
request to be reasonable due to the significant changes the proposal
would make to the current rule.

any defects or viruses.
