In response to this request, EPA is extending the comment period that would end on December 4, 2008, to
February 4, 2009.

If EPA cannot read your comment due to technical difficulties and cannot contact you for clarification, EPA may not be able to consider your comment. Electronic files should avoid the use of special characters, any form of encryption, and be free of any defects or viruses. For additional instructions on submitting comments, go to the
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section of this document.
