    The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has approved the Viejas Band of Kumeyaay Indians' application to build and operate the Viejas Pit Stop, a new gasoline station, on their reservation in California. This approval is part of the EPA's Tribal Minor New Source Review Program, which ensures air quality standards are met. The EPA determined that the proposed gasoline station met all necessary criteria and is eligible for coverage under the existing permit. This decision is a final agency action that can be reviewed judicially only to confirm if the station qualifies for the permit.

    Simple Explanation

    The EPA said yes to a tribe in California to build a new gas station, making sure it won't harm the air too much. This is like getting a green thumbs-up to start building it on their land.

    The Office of Tribal Justice, Department of Justice (DOJ) has announced a 60-day notice for public comments on extending a previously approved information collection. This request involves the procedure for Indian tribes under Public Law 280 to ask for concurrent federal criminal jurisdiction in their areas. The estimated number of respondents is less than 350, with each taking about 80 hours to respond, resulting in a total annual burden of 28,000 hours and a cost of $1,174,058. Public input is welcomed to help evaluate the necessity, accuracy, and potential improvement of this information collection.

    Simple Explanation

    The government wants to keep track of crime in certain special places, and they are asking for help from these areas, which will take a long time and cost a lot. People are worried it might be too hard and very expensive, so they want to make sure it's really needed and see if there's a better way.
