(3) Have attached thereto copies of any relevant documents discoverable under the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and the Freedom of Information Act which contain data relied upon by the Administrator in making his decision to issue the notice;
(4) Have attached thereto a copy of this part; and
(5) Be sent to the State by certified mail, return receipt requested.
