AGENCY:
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION:
Notice of availability of grantee performance evaluation reports.
SUMMARY:
EPA's grant regulations (40 CFR 35.150) require the Agency to evaluate the performance of agencies which receive grants. EPA's regulations for regional consistency (40 CFR 56.7) require that the Agency notify the public of the availability of the reports of such evaluations. EPA performed end-of-year evaluations of the state air pollution control program at North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources, and the local program at Memphis-Shelby County Health Department, Tennessee. These evaluations were conducted to assess the agencies' performance under the grants awarded by EPA under authority of section 105 of the Clean Air Act. EPA Region 4 has prepared reports for each agency identified above and these reports are now available for public inspection. Evaluations for the other seven states and 15 local governments which have air pollution control programs were published November 18, 2002.
ADDRESSES:
The reports may be examined at the EPA's Region 4 office, 61 Forsyth Street, SW, Atlanta, Georgia 30303, in the Air, Pesticides, and Toxics Management Division.
