**Notice of Final Action**
On July 31, 2025, the EPA issued a final decision to issue a permit, Permit No. C-2025-5, to Agua Caliente Tribal Corporation, an instrumentality of the Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians. This permit pertains to the modification and operation of the Agua Caliente Fuel Rancho Mirage (“Source”), a gasoline dispensing facility with a convenience store, located on Agua Caliente Indian Reservation, in Rancho Mirage, California. The EPA issued the permit pursuant to the provisions of Clean Air Act sections 110(a) and 301(d) and the EPA's Tribal Minor NSR Program at 40 CFR 49.151-49.164. The EPA based its decision on its determination that the Source met the applicability criteria and submitted all required content in the permit application under the EPA's Tribal Minor NSR Program. Notice of the final decision was served on August 4, 2025, pursuant to 40 CFR 49.159(a). In accordance with 40 CFR 49.159(d)(1), permit decisions may be appealed under the permit appeal procedures of 40 CFR 124.19. In accordance with 40 CFR 124.19, within 30 days after service of notice of the final permit decision, any person who filed comments on the draft permit or participated in a public hearing on the draft permit may file a petition to the EPA's Environmental Appeal Board (EAB) for review. Additionally, any person who failed to file comments or failed to participate in the public hearing on the draft permit may petition the EAB for administrative review of any permit conditions set forth in the final permit decision, but only to the extent that those final permit conditions reflect changes from the proposed draft permit. The EPA did not receive any comment filed on the draft permit or hold, or receive a request for, a public hearing on the draft permit. In the EPA's permit issued in its final permit decision, the EPA did not change the final permit conditions from those of the proposed draft permit. The EAB did not receive a petition to review any condition in the permit decision under 40 CFR 124.19. Therefore, pursuant to 40 CFR 49.159(a), this permit became effective on July 31, 2025.
