SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On April 29, 2026, the EPA published the 
notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) ``Air Plan Approval; Maryland; 
Reasonably Available Control Technology for Municipal Waste 
Combustors'' in the Federal Register (91 FR 23046). The NPRM specified 
that the comment period would end on May 29, 2026. However, due to 
technical problems with posting the docket on <a href="http://www.regulations.gov">www.regulations.gov</a> in 
the first week of publishing the NPRM, the EPA is extending the comment 
period by two weeks to June 12, 2026, to ensure the public and 
interested parties have sufficient time to review the associated docket 
materials and submit comments.
