Public Hearing on the Proposed Redesignation of the Forest County 
Potawatomi Community to a PSD Class I Area; State of Wisconsin

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: On June 29, 1995 USEPA proposed to approve a request from the 
Forest County Potawatomi Community to redesignate portions of its 
reservation lands to Class I for Prevention of Significant 
Deterioration (PSD) purposes (60 FR 33779). In this proposal, USEPA 
established a public comment period and scheduled a public hearing. 
Notice is hereby given that USEPA is postponing the public hearing. The 
hearing was to be held at the Indian Springs Lodge on Highway 32 in 
Carter, Wisconsin at 2:00 pm CDT on August 2, 1995. USEPA is extending 
the public comment period indefinitely. The original public comment 
period was intended to close on September 5, 1995.
    The hearing is postponed because the Governors of the States of 
Wisconsin and Michigan have requested ``dispute resolution''. Under 
Section 164(e) of the Clean Air Act, dispute resolution may be 
requested if a governor disagrees with a proposed redesignation. The 
Governors' request means that USEPA will enter into negotiations to try 
to resolve the differences concerning the proposed redesignation 
between the Forest County Potawatomi Community and the States of 
Wisconsin and Michigan. If mediation is unsuccessful, USEPA will make a 
final decision.
    After the dispute resolution process concludes, one or more public 
hearings will be rescheduled, and USEPA will set a new deadline for 
submittal of public comments. The dates and location(s) of these will 
be provided in a future Federal Register document.

DATES: The public comment period is extended until further notice.

ADDRESSES: Written comments should be addressed to: Carlton Nash, 
Chief, Regulation Development Section, Air Toxics and Radiation Branch, 
United States Environmental Protection Agency, 77 West Jackson 
Boulevard (AT-18J), Chicago, Illinois 60604.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Constantine Blathras, USEPA Region 5 
(AT-18J), 77 West Jackson Boulevard, Chicago, Illinois 60604, (312) 
886-0671.
