Procedure (18 CFR 385.214 or 385.211)
and the Regulations under the NGA (18
CFR 157.10). A person obtaining party
status will be placed on the service list
maintained by the Secretary of the
Commission and will receive copies of
all documents filed by the applicant and
by all other parties. A party must submit
5 copies of filings made with the
Commission and must mail a copy to
the applicant and to every other party in
the proceeding. Only parties to the
proceeding can ask for court review of
Commission orders in the proceeding.
However, a person does not have to
intervene in order to have comments
considered. The second way to
participate is by filing with the
Secretary of the Commission, as soon as
possible, an original and two copies of
comments in support of or in opposition
to this project. The Commission will
consider these comments in
determining the appropriate action to be
taken, but the filing of a comment alone
will not serve to make the filer a party
to the proceeding. The Commission’s
rules require that persons filing
comments in opposition to the project
provide copies of their protests only to
the party or parties directly involved in
the protest.
Persons who wish to comment only
on the environmental review of this
project should submit an original and
two copies of their comments to the
Secretary of the Commission.
Environmental commenters will be
placed on the Commission’s
environmental mailing list, will receive
copies of the environmental documents,
and will be notified of meetings
associated with the Commission’s
environmental review process.
Environmental commenters will not be
required to serve copies of filed
documents on all other parties.
However, the non-party commenters
will not receive copies of all documents
filed by other parties or issued by the
Commission (except for the mailing of
environmental documents issued by the
Commission) and will not have the right
to seek court review of the
Commission’s final order.
Motions to intervene, protests and
comments may be filed electronically
via the internet in lieu of paper; see, 18
CFR 385.2001(a)(1)(iii) and the
instructions on the Commission’s Web
site under the ‘‘e-Filing’’ link. The
Commission strongly encourages
electronic filings.

other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submission of
responses. EPA will consider the
comments received and amend the ICR
as appropriate. The final ICR package
will then be submitted to OMB for
review and approval. At that time, EPA
will issue another Federal Register
notice to announce the submission of
the ICR to OMB and the opportunity to
submit additional comments to OMB.
Abstract: Under the Clean Air Act
(CAA), EPA granted partial waivers that
allow gasoline containing greater than
10 volume percent (vol%) ethanol up to
15 vol% ethanol (E15) to be introduced
into commerce for use in model year
(MY) 2001 and newer light-duty motor
vehicles, subject to certain conditions.
EPA issued final rule establishing
several measures to mitigate misfueling
of other vehicles, engines and
equipment with E15 and the potential
emissions consequences of misfueling.
The rule prohibits the use of gasoline
containing more than 10 vol% ethanol
in vehicles, engines and equipment that
are not covered by the partial waiver
decisions. The rule also requires all E15
gasoline fuel dispensers to have a
specific label when a retail station or
wholesale-purchaser consumer chooses
to sell E15. In addition, the rule requires
that product transfer documents (PTDs)
specifying ethanol content and Reid
Vapor Pressure (RVP) accompany the
transfer of gasoline blended with
ethanol, and a survey of retail stations
to ensure compliance with these
requirements. The rule also modifies the
Reformulated Gasoline (RFG) program
by updating the Complex Model to
allow fuel manufacturers to certify
batches of gasoline containing up to 15
vol% ethanol. This ICR supporting
statement addresses associated
recordkeeping and reporting items.
Form Numbers: None.
Respondent’s obligation to respond:
Mandatory (40 CFR part 80).
Estimated number of respondents:
2,103 (total).
Frequency of response: On occasion.
Total estimated burden: 13,270 hours
(per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR
1320.03(b).
Total estimated cost: $1,340,292. $0
in annualized capital or operation &
maintenance costs.
Changes in estimates: We expect there
will be a decrease in the total estimated
respondents, responses and cost to the
industry compared to the ICR currently
approved by OMB. This change in
burden is due to no longer requiring the
programing of product transfer codes in
this collection. The respondent universe
decreased from 6,211 to 2,103, a
difference of 4,108 members. The

number of responses declined from
44,010,211 to 44,000,103, a difference of
10,108 reports. This reduced the
industry burden hours from 37,350 to
13,270. A contributing factor to the
lowering of the industry cost was the
salaries quoted in the ‘‘Bureau of Labor
Statistics, May 2013 National IndustrySpecific Occupational Employment and
Wage Estimates, mean wages.’’ The
salaries that assisted in calculating the
cost mix had slightly declined. This
change has caused a decrease in the cost
per report in this collection from $110
per report to $101 per report. The total
estimated cost to industry is $1,340,292
a year, the difference of $2,762,234
calculated from the prior collection
approved by OMB.

Fiscal Year (FY) 2015 Supplemental
Funding for Brownfields Revolving
Loan Fund (RLF) Grantees
Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Notice of the availability of
funds.
AGENCY:

The Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) plans to make available
approximately $5.8 million to provide
supplemental funds to Revolving Loan
Fund (RLF) capitalization grants
previously awarded competitively
under section 104(k)(3) of the
Comprehensive Environmental
Response, Compensation and Liability
Act (CERCLA). Brownfields Cleanup
Revolving Loan Fund pilots awarded
under section 104(d)(1) of CERCLA that
have not transitioned to section
104(k)(3) grants are not eligible to apply
for these funds. EPA will consider
awarding supplemental funding only to
RLF grantees who have demonstrated an
ability to deliver programmatic results
by making at least one loan or subgrant.
The award of these funds is based on
the criteria described at CERCLA
104(k)(4)(A)(ii).
The Agency is now accepting requests
for supplemental funding from RLF
grantees. Requests for funding must be
submitted to the appropriate EPA
Regional Brownfields Coordinator

(listed below) by April 23, 2015.
Funding requests for hazardous
substances and/or petroleum funding
will be accepted. Specific information
on submitting a request for RLF
supplemental funding is described
below and additional information may
be obtained by contacting the EPA
Regional Brownfields Coordinator.
DATES: This action is effective on March
24, 2015.
ADDRESSES: A request for supplemental
funding must be in the form of a letter
addressed to the appropriate Regional
Brownfields Coordinator (see listing
below) with a copy to Lisa Ruhl,
[email protected].
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Lisa
Ruhl, U.S. EPA, (202) 566–0180 or the
appropriate Brownfields Regional
Coordinator.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The Small Business Liability Relief
and Brownfields Revitalization Act
added section 104(k) to CERCLA to
authorize federal financial assistance for
brownfields revitalization, including
grants for assessment, cleanup and job
training. Section 104(k) includes a
provision for EPA to, among other
things, award grants to eligible entities
to capitalize Revolving Loan Funds and
to provide loans and subgrants for
brownfields cleanup. Section
104(k)(4)(A)(ii) authorizes EPA to make
additional grant funds available to RLF
grantees for any year after the year for
which the initial grant is made
(noncompetitive RLF supplemental
funding) taking into consideration:
(I) The number of sites and number of
communities that are addressed by the
revolving loan fund;
(II) the demand for funding by eligible
entities that have not previously
received a grant under this subsection;
(III) the demonstrated ability of the
eligible entity to use the revolving loan
fund to enhance remediation and
provide funds on a continuing basis;
and
(IV) such other similar factors as the
[Agency] considers appropriate to carry
out this subsection.
Eligibility:
In order to be considered for
supplemental funding, grantees must
demonstrate that they have expended
existing funds and that they have a clear
plan for quickly expending requested
additional funds. Grantees must
demonstrate that they have made at
least one loan or subgrant prior to
applying for this supplemental funding
and have significantly depleted existing
available funds. For FY2015, EPA
