We are sending and posting this update to notify stakeholders that we will be providing more time to comment on this request for scientific data, information, and comments. We will be extending the timeframe to comment until July 19, 2016. We are taking this action in response to maintenance on the Federal eRulemaking portal scheduled to take place from July 1 through July 5, 2016, to allow more time to develop and submit meaningful comments to the request for scientific data, information, and comments.
The original comment period was scheduled to close May 3, 2016. On April 21, 2016, in response to multiple requests from stakeholders, the agency extended the comment period to July 5, 2016. With this second extension, the comment period now closes July 19, 2016.
