Title: ●Extension of Compliance Deadline for Air Emission Testing Bodies (AETBs) 
Abstract: On January 24, 2008, final amendments to 40 CFR part 75 on competency requirements for air emission testing bodies (AETBs) was published in the Federal Register (See 73 FR 4365, 4367, and 4372). The AETB provision generally requires stack testers and stack testing companies to meet certain minimum competency requirements described in ASTM D 7036 by January 1, 2009. On March 25, 2008, the Utility Air Regulatory Group (UARG) filed a Petition for Review primarily claiming that EPA could not by the AETB requirement hold utilities responsible for something they cannot control. This action responds to that petition for review.
