No. 28752 Notice of Public Hearing and Comment Period on Water Quality Standards Rulemaking Before the Montana Department of Environmental Quality On June 3, 2022, the Department of Environmental Quality (department) initiated rulemaking on proposed NEW RULE I which implements statute at 75-5-320, MCA. The statute at 75-5-320, MCA, provides the department authority to adopt rules which describe criteria and procedures to issue temporary variances to water quality standards, under certain conditions. NEW RULE I sets forth these criteria and procedures, as well as the applicable conditions. The statute at 75-5-320, MCA, was adopted during the 2019 Regular Session of the Montana Legislature and provides the means for dischargers to qualify for water quality standards variances under state law and as provided in federal law at 40 CFR 131.14 (the federal regulation for water quality standards variances). For purposes of consistency with federal law, NEW RULE I also adopts 40 CFR 131.14 by reference. A water quality standards variance is a time-limited water quality standard for a specific pollutant(s) or water quality parameter(s) that reflects the highest attainable condition during the term of the variance. When a variance is approved, the goal remains full attainment of the underlying beneficial use and criterion from which the variance is sought, and all other applicable water quality standards not specifically addressed by the water quality standards variance remain applicable. NEW RULE I may be used to seek a temporary variance from a variety of different Montana water quality standards, both narrative and numeric, including those found in Department Circular DEQ-7. Under NEW RULE I, a variance may be granted based on one of six factors referenced at 40 CFR 131.14(b)(2)(i)(A)(1). On August 18, 2022, at 10:00 a.m., a public hearing will be held in room 111 of the Metcalf Building, 1520 East Sixth Avenue, Helena, Montana, to consider NEW RULE I. You may also join the meeting virtually via Zoom. More information is available on the department's website, including instruction on how to attend remotely, at https://deq.mt.gov/public/publiccomment. The department will make reasonable accommodations for persons with disabilities who wish to participate in this rulemaking process or need an alternative accessible format of this notice (see the MAR notice on the website for details). You are invited to submit data, views, or arguments, either orally or in writing, at the hearing. Written data, views, or arguments may also be submitted to Loryn Johnson, Paralegal, Department of Environmental Quality, P.O. Box 200901, Helena, Montana 59620-0901; faxed to (406) 444-4386; or e-mailed to loryn.johnson2@mt.gov , no later than 5:00 p.m., August 22, 2022. To be guaranteed consideration, mailed comments must be postmarked on or before that date. July 10, 17, 24, 2022 MNAXLP __________________________

The Beneficiary has declared the Grantor in default of the terms of the Deed of Trust, amendments, and the promissory note ("Note") and its amendments, secured by the Deed of Trust and its amendments, because of the Grantor's failure to timely pay all monthly installments of principal, interest, and, if applicable, escrow reserves for taxes and/or insurance as required by the Note and Deed of Trust, and any amendments thereto.

The sale is subject to bankruptcy filing, payoff, reinstatement, or other circumstance that affects the validity of the sale.

The purchaser shall be entitled to possession of the property on the 10th day following the sale. The scheduled Trustee's Sale may be postponed by public proclamation up to 15 days for any reason, and in the event of a bankruptcy filing or other court-ordered stay, the sale may be postponed by the trustee for up to 120 days by public proclamation at least every 30 days.
