SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
On August 1, 2025, EPA published a proposed rule titled "Reconsideration of 2009 Endangerment Finding and Greenhouse Gas Vehicle Standards" (90 FR 36288). The public comment for this proposed rule was scheduled to end on September 15, 2025. The public hearing on this rule is scheduled for August 19, 20, and 21, 2025. In EPA's Federal Register notice announcing the public hearing (90 FR 36125), EPA stated the agency would hold the public hearing on August 19 and 20, and EPA would consider adding a third day, August 21, if needed. EPA has now decided to add a third day (August 21, 2025) and is considering adding a fourth day (August 22, 2025). The Clean Air Act requires that the record of proceedings allowing oral presentation of data, views, and arguments on a proposed rule be kept open for 30 days after completion of the proceeding to provide an opportunity for submission of rebuttal and supplementary information. 42 U.S.C. 7607(d)(5). Because EPA plans to hold a third of public hearing for this proposed rule, and is considering adding a fourth day, the final "proceeding allowing oral presentation of data, views, and arguments," will be held on August 21, 2025, and potentially on August 22, 2025. For this reason, the public comment period for this proposed rule is extended and will now end on September 22, 2025.

Director, Assessment and Standards Division, Office of Transportation and Air Quality.
