EPA is taking final action to extend the grace period before the MOtor Vehicle Emission Simulator (MOVES) model is required for regional emissions analyses for transportation conformity determinations (``regional conformity analyses''). This final rule provides an additional year to the previously established two-year conformity grace period. As a result, EPA is announcing in this Federal Register that MOVES must be used for new regional conformity analyses that begin after March 2, 2013.

For the most part, the Evansville Vanderburgh School Board operates in a positive atmosphere these days. The board has endorsed the many initiatives of Superintendent Vincent Bertram, who was brought to Evansville three years ago with a clear mandate to improve student performance. The board hired Bertram and endorsed his ambitious strategic agenda, as did the public in a $149 million referendum. At this point, the agenda's various parts - a new high school/ middle school, early childhood education centers, a high availability of personal computers for students and much more - are being put in place.
