SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On January 27, 2000, we solicited public
comment on a supplemental proposal for the Federal Rulemaking for the
FMC Facility in the Fort Hall PM-10 Nonattainment Area (65 FR 4466).\1\
In that supplemental proposal, we stated that we would accept written
public comments on the supplemental proposal until February 28, 2000.
We also stated that we would not hold a public hearing on the
supplemental proposal unless one was requested and a sufficient reason
for holding a hearing was provided.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ The supplemental proposal proposed to revise certain aspects
of the original proposal published in the Federal Register on
February 12, 1999 (64 FR 7308).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Based on letters we received prior to publication of the
supplemental proposal, we believe there is a significant public
interest in the supplemental proposal. We have therefore decided to
hold public hearings on the supplemental proposal in advance of a
specific request during the public comment period. The public hearings
will be held on:

Tuesday, February 29, 2000, 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m., Pocatello City
Council Chambers, 711 North 9th, Pocatello, Idaho
Wednesday, March 1, 2000, 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m., Shoshone-Bannock
Tribal Council Chambers, Agency Road and Bannock Drive, Fort Hall,
Idaho

    To accommodate the public hearings, we are also extending the
deadline for receiving written public comments on the supplemental
proposal to March 13, 2000. Interested persons are invited to attend
the public hearings and to comment on all aspects of EPA's supplemental
proposal. The January 27, 2000, supplemental notice also stated that
the docket for the supplemental proposal is available for public
