Availability of FY 02 Section 105 Grant Performance Reports for 
the Air Pollution Control Agencies of the States of Georgia, North 
Carolina, Tennessee and the Commonwealth of Kentucky, as Well as the 
Local Areas of Louisville, Kentucky and Forsyth County, NC

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 FY 02 end-of-year evaluations of four state 
air pollution control programs (Georgia Department of Natural 
Resources; North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural 
Resources; Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation; and 
Kentucky Department of Environmental Protection); and two local air 
pollution control programs (Louisville Metro Air Pollution Control 
District, KY; and Forsyth County Environmental Affairs Department, NC). 
The six 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.

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.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Marie Persinger (404) 562-9048, for 
information concerning the State of Kentucky and Louisville, Kentucky; 
Mary Fox (404) 562-9053, for the States of Georgia and North Carolina 
and Forsyth County, North Carolina; and Rayna Brown (404) 562-9093, for 
information concerning the State of Tennessee. They may be contacted at 
the above Region 4 address.

    Dated: November 18, 2003.
