     Subject:  SBAR Panel for Non-Road Spark-Ignition
          Engines/Equipment

Dear Mr. Cristofaro:

     I have received your letter of May 24, 2006 regarding
the Small Business Advocacy Review Panel (Panel) for the
proposed Clean Air Act Control of Emissions from Nonroad
Spark-Ignition Engines and Equipment (NRSI).  We received
the formal notification electronically on May 26, 2006.
     
     Advocacy generally concurs with the preliminary list of
Small Entity Representatives (SERs) that EPA has identified
for the Panel process.  Advocacy believes that the following
additional SERs also need to be included in this Panel:
     
     James McNew
     Outdoor Power Equipment Institute
     (703) 549-7601
     jmcnew@opei.org

     George Kraemer
     Kracor
     (414) 355-6335
     gkraemer@kracor.com

     Richard Rowe
     Indmar Products
     (901) 353-9930
     drowe@indmar.com
     Robert Porter
     INCA Molded Products
     (615) 350-7290
     rporter@incaproducts.com

     Bill Shields
     Trident Rubber Inc.
     (724) 745-9311
     wfshields@tridentmarine.com


     We understand that EPA would like to have a pre-Panel
meeting with the SERs in June 2006 and convene the Panel the
following month.  We look forward to working with you
through this process.

                          Sincerely,
                              
                              
                                   /s/ ____________________
                              
                                  Thomas M. Sullivan
                                  Chief Counsel for Advocacy
