RIN 2120-AA64

Airworthiness Directives; Fokker Services B.V. Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: We propose to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2005-12-
16, for all Fokker Services B.V. Model F28 Mark 0100 airplanes. AD
2005-12-16 requires an inspection to determine the part number of the
passenger service unit (PSU) panels for the PSU modification status,
and corrective actions if applicable. Since we issued AD 2005-12-16, we
have determined that the required modification actions might not have
been implemented correctly. This proposed AD would require an
inspection of the PSU panels and the PSU panel/airplane interface
connectors for discrepancies, and corrective actions if necessary. This
proposed AD would also remove airplanes from the applicability. We are
proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.

DATES: We must receive comments on this proposed AD by December 18,
2017.

ADDRESSES: You may send comments, using the procedures found in 14 CFR
11.43 and 11.45, by any of the following methods:

     Federal eRulemaking Portal: Go to http://www.regulations.gov. Follow the instructions for submitting comments.
     Fax:<PHONE_NUMBER>.
     Mail: U.S. Department of Transportation, Docket
Operations, M-30, West Building Ground Floor, Room W12-140, 1200 New
Jersey Avenue SE., Washington, DC 20590.
     Hand Delivery: Deliver to Mail address above between 9
a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, except Federal holidays.
    For service information identified in this NPRM, contact Fokker

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Comments Invited

    We invite you to send any written relevant data, views, or
arguments about this proposal. Send your comments to an address listed
under the ADDRESSES section. Include ``Docket No. FAA-2017-0906;
Product Identifier 2017-NM-039-AD'' at the beginning of your comments.
We specifically invite comments on the overall regulatory, economic,
environmental, and energy aspects of this proposed AD. We will consider
all comments received by the closing date and may amend this proposed
AD based on those comments.
    We will post all comments we receive, without change, to http://www.regulations.gov, including any personal information you provide. We
will also post a report summarizing each substantive verbal contact we
receive about this proposed AD.

Discussion

    We issued AD 2005-12-16, Amendment 39-14132 (70 FR 34642, June 15,
2005) (``AD 2005-12-16''), for all Fokker Services B.V. Model F28 Mark
0100 airplanes. AD 2005-12-16 was prompted by reports of smoke in the
passenger compartment during flight. One of those incidents also
included a burning smell and consequently led to emergency evacuation
of the airplane. AD 2005-12-16 requires an inspection to determine the
part number of the PSU panels for the PSU modification status, and
corrective actions if applicable. We issued AD 2005-12-16 to detect and
correct overheating of the PSU panel due to moisture ingress, which
could result in smoke or fire in the passenger cabin.
    Since we issued AD 2005-12-16, we have determined that the
modification actions required by AD 2005-12-16 might not have been
implemented correctly.
    The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which is the Technical
Agent for the Member States of the European Union, has issued EASA
Airworthiness Directive 2017-0043, dated March 15, 2017 (referred to
after this as the Mandatory Continuing Airworthiness Information, or
``the MCAI''), to correct an unsafe condition for certain Fokker
Services B.V. Model F28 Mark 0100 airplanes. The MCAI states:

    Reports were received of burning smell and smoke in the
passenger compartment during flight as a result of overheating of
passenger service units (PSU). These were attributed to moisture
ingress into the interface electrical connectors of an unsealed PSU
panel.
    This condition, if not detected and corrected, could lead to
further incidents of smoke in the passenger compartment, possibly
resulting in injury to occupants.
    To address this potential unsafe condition, Grimes Aerospace
Company, the PSU manufacturer (currently Honeywell) issued SB 10-
1178-33-0040 and SB 10-1571-33-0041, and Fokker Services issued
SBF100-25-097, to provide instructions for installation of improved
sealing of the PSU and its interface electrical connectors.
Subsequently, CAA-NL [Civil Aviation Authority--The Netherlands]
issued AD (BLA) 2004-022 [which corresponds to FAA AD 2005-12-16] to
require modification, cleaning and sealing of the affected PSU.
    Since that [CAA-NL] AD was issued, following a new occurrence of
burning smell and smoke in the passenger compartment during
disembarking of the passengers, the investigation revealed that, on
several aeroplanes, the modification instructions of Honeywell and
Fokker Services (SB listed above) were not, or not correctly,
implemented. Prompted by these findings, Fokker Services published
SBF100-25-128, providing inspection instructions to detect non-
accomplishment and any discrepancy with the original modification
instructions.
    For the reasons described above, this [EASA] AD retains the
requirement of CAA-NL AD (BLA) 2004-022, which is superseded, and
requires a one-time inspection [for discrepancies] of the PSU panels
and their interface with the aeroplane, and, depending on findings,
the accomplishment of applicable corrective action(s).

    Discrepancies include incorrect application of the sealant on the
PSU panels, uninstalled gaskets, inability to properly lock the
connectors, and incorrectly applied sealant on the connectors.
Corrective actions include restoring the sealing of the affected PSU
panel, repairing the PSU panel, or installing a new PSU panel with a
replaced receptacle, and installing gaskets; making sure the connecter
can properly lock; and applying sealant on the connector.
    The MCAI also revised the applicability by specifying specific line
numbers and excluding airplanes on which certain modifications were
done. You may examine the MCAI in the AD docket on the Internet at
http://www.regulations.gov by searching for and locating Docket No.
FAA-2017-0906.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    Fokker Services B.V. has issued Fokker Service Bulletin SBF100-25-
128, dated July 21, 2016. This service information describes procedures
for inspection of the PSU panels and the PSU panel/airplane interface
connectors for discrepancies, and for incorrectly applied sealant on
the connectors, and corrective actions.
    Grimes Aerospace has issued Service Bulletin 10-1178-33-0040, dated
October 15, 1993; Service Bulletin 10-1178-33-0040, Revision 1, dated
March 25, 1996; and Service Bulletin 10-1571-33-0041, dated October 15,
1993. This service information describes procedures for inspection of
the PSU panels and the PSU panel/airplane interface connectors for
discrepancies, and corrective actions. This service information is
distinct since it applies to different part numbers.
    This service information is reasonably available because the
interested parties have access to it through their normal course of
business or by the means identified in the ADDRESSES section.

FAA's Determination and Requirements of This Proposed AD

    This product has been approved by the aviation authority of another
country, and is approved for operation in the United States. Pursuant
to our bilateral agreement with the State of Design Authority, we have
been notified of the unsafe condition described in the MCAI and service
information referenced above. We are proposing this AD because we
evaluated all pertinent information and determined an unsafe condition
exists and is likely to exist or develop on other products of the same
type design.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this proposed AD affects 8 airplanes of U.S.
registry.
    The actions required by AD 2005-12-16, and retained in this
proposed AD take about 5 work-hours per product, at an average labor
rate of $85 per work-hour. Required parts cost about $6 per product.
Based on these figures, the estimated cost of the actions that are
required by AD 2005-12-16 is $431 per product.
    We also estimate that it would take about 13 work-hours per product
to comply with the basic requirements of this proposed AD. The average
labor rate is $85 per work-hour. Based on these figures, we estimate
the cost of this proposed AD on U.S. operators to be $8,840, or $1,105
per product.
    We have received no definitive data that would enable us to provide
cost estimates for the on-condition actions specified in this proposed
AD.

Authority for This Rulemaking

    Title 49 of the United States Code specifies the FAA's authority to
issue rules on aviation safety. Subtitle I, section 106, describes the
authority of the FAA Administrator. ``Subtitle VII: Aviation
Programs,'' describes in more detail the scope of the Agency's
authority.
    We are issuing this rulemaking under the authority described in
``Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart III, Section 44701: General
requirements.'' Under that section, Congress charges the FAA with
promoting safe flight of civil aircraft in air commerce by prescribing
regulations for practices, methods, and procedures the Administrator
finds necessary for safety in air commerce. This regulation is within
the scope of that authority because it addresses an unsafe condition
that is likely to exist or develop on products identified in this
rulemaking action.
    This AD is issued in accordance with authority delegated by the
Executive Director, Aircraft Certification Service, as authorized by
FAA Order 8000.51C. In accordance with that order, issuance of ADs is
normally a function of the Compliance and Airworthiness Division, but
during this transition period, the Executive Director has delegated the
authority to issue ADs applicable to transport category airplanes to
the Director of the System Oversight Division.

Regulatory Findings

    We determined that this proposed AD would not have federalism
implications under Executive Order 13132. This proposed AD would not
have a substantial direct effect on the States, on the relationship
between the national Government and the States, or on the distribution
of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government.
    For the reasons discussed above, I certify this proposed
regulation:
    1. Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive Order
12866;
    2. Is not a ``significant rule'' under the DOT Regulatory Policies

    Abstract: The New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for Calciners
and Dryers in Mineral Industries (40 CFR part 60, subpart UUU) apply
only to new calciners and dryers at mineral processing plants that
either process or produce either any of the following minerals and
their concentrates or any mixture of which the majority is any of the
following minerals or a combination of these minerals: Alumina, ball
clay, bentonite, diatomite, feldspar, fire clay, fuller's earth,
gypsum, industrial sand, kaolin, lightweight aggregate, magnesium
compounds, perlite, roofing granules, talc, titanium dioxide, and
vermiculite. Particulate matter (PM) is the pollutant regulated under
this subpart. Feed and product conveyors are not considered part of the
affected facility. Facilities subject to the NSPS for Metallic Mineral
Processing Plants (40 CFR part 60, subpart LL) are not subject to these
standards. There are additional processes and process units at mineral
processing plants listed at Section 60.730(b) which are not subject to
the provisions of this Subpart. New facilities include those that
commenced construction, modification or reconstruction after the date
of proposal. In general, all NSPS standards require initial
notifications, performance tests, and periodic reports by the owners/
operators of the affected facilities. They are also required to
maintain records of the occurrence and duration of any startup,
shutdown, or malfunction in the operation of an affected facility, or
any period during which the monitoring system is inoperative. These
notifications, reports, and records are essential in determining
compliance, and are required of all affected facilities subject to
NSPS.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: Owners and operators of calciners
and dryers at mineral processing plants.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 60,
subpart UUU).
    Estimated number of respondents: 167 (total).
    Frequency of response: Initially, occasionally, and semiannually.
    Total estimated burden: 6,630 hours (per year). Burden is defined
at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
    Total estimated cost: $805,000 (per year), includes $109,000 in
either annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is a small increase in the total
estimated burden currently identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved
Burdens. The adjustment in the burden occurred because this ICR assumes
all existing respondents will have to familiarize with the regulatory
requirements each year. Further, there is an increase of one response
due to a correction. The previous ICR did not account for the
notification of operational/physical change in calculating the number
of responses.

DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES

Food and Drug Administration

[Docket No. FDA-2011-N-0410]

Agency Information Collection Activities; Proposed Collection;
Comment Request; Premarket Notification for a New Dietary Ingredient

AGENCY: Food and Drug Administration, HHS.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is announcing an
opportunity for public comment on the proposed collection of certain
information by the Agency. Under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(the PRA), Federal Agencies are required to publish notice in the
Federal Register concerning each proposed collection of information,
including each proposed extension of an existing collection of
information, and to allow 60 days for public comment in response to the
notice. This notice solicits comments on the procedure by which a
manufacturer or distributor of dietary supplements or of a new dietary
ingredient is to submit information to FDA upon which it has based its
conclusion that a dietary supplement containing a new dietary
ingredient will reasonably be expected to be safe.

DATES: Submit either electronic or written comments on the collection
of information by August 2, 2011.

ADDRESSES: Submit electronic comments on the collection of information
to http://www.regulations.gov. Submit written comments on the
collection of information to the Division of Dockets Management (HFA-
305), Food and Drug Administration, 5630 Fishers Lane, Rm. 1061,
Rockville, MD 20852. All comments should be identified with the docket
number found in brackets in the heading of this document.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Denver Presley, Jr., Office of
Information Management, Food and Drug Administration, 1350 Piccard Dr.,
PI50-400B, Rockville, MD 20850,<PHONE_NUMBER>.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520), Federal
Agencies must obtain approval from the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) for each collection of information they conduct or sponsor.
``Collection of information'' is defined in 44 U.S.C. 3502(3) and 5 CFR
1320.3(c) and includes Agency requests or requirements that members of
the public submit reports, keep records, or provide information to a
third party. Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A))
requires Federal Agencies to provide a 60-day notice in the Federal
Register concerning each proposed collection of information, including
each proposed extension of an existing collection of information,
before submitting the collection to OMB for approval. To comply with
this requirement, FDA is publishing notice of the proposed collection
of information set forth in this document.
    With respect to the following collection of information, FDA
invites comments on these topics: (1) Whether the proposed collection
of information is necessary for the proper performance of FDA's
functions, including whether the information will have practical
utility; (2) the accuracy of FDA's estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information, including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used; (3) ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (4) ways
to minimize the burden of the collection of information on respondents,
including through the use of automated collection techniques, when
appropriate, and other forms of information technology.

Premarket Notification for a New Dietary Ingredient--21 CFR 190.6 (OMB
Control Number 0910-0330)--Extension

    Section 413(a) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the
FD&C Act) (21 U.S.C. 350b(a)) provides that at least 75 days before the
introduction or delivery for introduction into interstate commerce of a
dietary supplement that contains a new dietary ingredient, a
manufacturer or distributor of dietary supplements or of a new dietary
ingredient is to submit to FDA (as delegate for the Secretary of Health
and Human Services) information upon which the manufacturer or
distributor has based its conclusion that a dietary supplement
containing a new dietary ingredient will reasonably be expected to be
safe (part 190 (21 CFR part 190)) implements these statutory
provisions. Section 190.6(a) requires each manufacturer or distributor
of a dietary supplement containing a new dietary ingredient, or of a
new dietary ingredient, to submit to the Office of Nutrition, Labeling,
and Dietary Supplements notification of the basis for their conclusion
that said supplement or ingredient will reasonably be expected to be
safe. Section 190.6(b) requires that the notification include the
following: (1) The complete name and address of the manufacturer or
distributor; (2) the name of the new dietary ingredient; (3) a
description of the dietary supplements that contain the new dietary
ingredient; and (4) the history of use or other evidence of safety
establishing that the dietary ingredient will reasonably be expected to
be safe.
    The notification requirements described previously are designed to
enable FDA to monitor the introduction into the food supply of new
dietary ingredients and dietary supplements that contain new dietary
ingredients, in order to protect consumers from the introduction of
unsafe dietary supplements into interstate commerce. FDA uses the
information collected under these regulations to help ensure that a
manufacturer or distributor of a dietary supplement containing a new
dietary ingredient is in full compliance with the FD&C Act.
    Description of Respondents: The respondents to this collection of
information are firms in the dietary supplement industry, including
dietary supplement and dietary ingredient manufacturers, packagers and
re-packagers, holders, labelers and re-labelers, distributors,
warehouses, exporters, and importers.
    FDA estimates the burden of this collection of information as
follows:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                                               Number of                          Average burden per
                   21 CFR Section                          Number of         responses per       Total annual        response (in         Total hours
                                                          respondents         respondent           responses            hours)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
190.6...............................................                 55                   1                  55                  20               1,100
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ There are no capital costs or operating and maintenance costs associated with this collection of information.

    The Agency believes that there will be minimal burden on the
industry to generate data to meet the requirements of the premarket
notification program because the Agency is requesting only that
information that the manufacturer or distributor should already have
developed to satisfy itself that a dietary supplement containing a new
dietary ingredient is in full compliance with the FD&C Act. However,
the Agency estimates that extracting and summarizing the relevant
information from the company's files, and presenting it in a format
that will meet the requirements of Section 413 of the FD&C Act will
require a burden of approximately 20 hours of work per submission.
    The estimated number of premarket notifications and hours per
response is an average based on the Agency's experience with
notifications received during the last 3 years and information from
firms that have submitted recent premarket notifications. FDA received
77 notifications in 2008, 39 notifications in 2009, and 48
notifications in 2010, for an average of 55 notifications. Accordingly,
we estimate that 55 respondents will submit one premarket notification
each and that it will take a respondent 20 hours to prepare the
notification, for a total of 1,100 hours.

    Dated: May 26, 2011.

27:28
[Jonathan Garoutte, Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services] Jonathan Garoutte: Hey all right, thank you very much and I thought I was going to give you one of those difficult names right off the bat so thank you, you got it right appreciate that.
27:36
Jonathan Garoutte: I'll just keep my comments short, of course, I see the clock running, I just wanted to really just wanted to say thank you to EPA for kind of creating this forum.
27:46
Jonathan Garoutte: To be able to hear from individuals throughout the Region, and specifically in Missouri on EPA draft draft lead strategy, I myself kind of appreciate the the opportunity to listen in.
28:00
Jonathan Garoutte: And so, my comments I suppose aren't as substantive or specific to the lead strategy as others might be more general.
28:09
Jonathan Garoutte: But I am of course interested in the focus on lead nationally and here in Region 7 and in Missouri, of course.
28:18
Jonathan Garoutte: As as you at EPA know Missouri both monitors child and adult blood lead levels and and we address those lead exposures from sources that are typical nationwide.
28:31
Jonathan Garoutte: Like lead based paint, through environmental risk assessments and case management for children with the EBLs -- elevated blood levels.
28:40
Jonathan Garoutte: and also for training and licensure of lead remediation professionals in the state, and then we also, of course, have traditional sources of lead in drinking water that is addressed by our partner agency at the Department of Natural Resources.
28:56
Jonathan Garoutte: And, and you know we also then have historic and both current
29:04
Jonathan Garoutte: lead issues, legacy risks from from lead industry within the state of Missouri that
29:12
Jonathan Garoutte: Regional Administrator McCollister alluded to earlier and and we've had a really good working relationship with EPA and other partners on addressing those lead industry legacy issues, so I just wanted to say that we appreciate this historical,
29:31
Jonathan Garoutte: the good relationship we've had with EPA and working on those. We look forward to continuing a approach on lead that's that's both science-based,
29:41
Jonathan Garoutte: driven by I guess I'd say big picture, a balanced approach and very focused on the community's needs. So really just wanted to say thank you for the opportunity, look forward to continuing to work with EPA in that way going forward so thank you.
30:22
[Karisa Gilman-Hernandez, Dutchtown South Community Corporation] Karisa Gilman-Hernandez: Wonderful. Thank you all so much for having this evening.
30:26
Karisa Gilman-Hernandez: I'm Karisa Gilman-Hernandez, my pronouns and she/her/hers and I work for Dutchtown South Community Corporation, and we serve the south side of St Louis.
30:35
Karisa Gilman-Hernandez: I wanted to share with you all, an experience I recently had by going to one of our public schools. There are signs on the fences, it says 'this fence may contain lead do not touch'.
30:48
Karisa Gilman-Hernandez: This is on a school with children. When I talked to teachers, they're concerned about the lead on the fences, they're concerned about the lead in the paint, and the water.
30:57
Karisa Gilman-Hernandez: All around them, the principals are concerned, parents, the school district itself, nobody doesn't take this seriously, however, there is a serious question about funds in order to
31:09
Karisa Gilman-Hernandez: address these issues. I'd like to see whatever plan the EPA comes forward with, include grants that school districts can apply apply to, to start working on the lead mitigation
31:23
Karisa Gilman-Hernandez: in these schools. I think that our public education is a great chance to just be of service to our children in this country and the best thing we can do for them is to ensure that they have a safe environment, and that means a lead-free environment.
31:41
Karisa Gilman-Hernandez: I don't have too much more to say than that, but I do appreciate this time and I hope
31:46
Karisa Gilman-Hernandez: whatever plans the EPA is making includes funding, because a lot of times we have things go forward, but without the money behind them, the school districts are just kind of stuck.
31:57
Karisa Gilman-Hernandez: Thank you.
32:20
[Gary Keller, Citizens Against Gillespie Expansion and Low Flying Aircraft] Gary Keller: Thank you Katie. I'm going to be talking about leaded aviation fuel. Currently there are about 20,000 general aviation airports in the US.
32:29
Gary Keller: All of these airports cater to planes still using leaded aviation fuel. A recent study by Dr Sammy Zahran at Reid-Hillview Airport in San Jose, California
32:41
Gary Keller: has proven not only that children who live near these airports have elevated blood lead levels,
32:47
Gary Keller: some of them higher than those found in the flint water crisis, but also that the 2008 EPA National Ambient Air Quality Standard for lead is 0.15 micrograms per cubic meter is still way too high.
33:04
Gary Keller: The childhood lead poisoning prevention branch of the California Department of Public Health has warned that children should not play or spend time near general aviation airports.
33:15
Gary Keller: Why isn't the EPA warning all parents with children who live near these airports?
33:21
Gary Keller: It is estimated that 16 million people, including about 3 million children, live within a kilometer of those airports. How many attend school or at daycare centers near these airports?
33:33
Gary Keller: Many or most of these children come from poor economic backgrounds.
33:38
Gary Keller: It doesn't really matter if a person breathes in, swallows, or absorbs lead particles, the health effects are the same. However, the body absorbs higher levels of lead when it is breathed in.
33:52
Gary Keller: Each year general aviation aircraft are responsible for 1 million pounds of lead emissions across the US.
34:00
Gary Keller: On an average, general aviation aircraft makeup 70% of all new airborne lead emissions in the US each year.
34:09
Gary Keller: Region number 7 puts out close to 43,000 pounds of, or 21 tons of lead, through the exhaust of general aviation planes each year,
34:20
Gary Keller: all for the breathing pleasures of our children.
34:23
Gary Keller: The Federal Aviation Administration believe federal entity for these issues is simply not equipped to meaningfully address the environmental justice and health equity challenges of emissions.
34:36
Gary Keller: The 2021 National Academy of Sciences study on av gas is woefully short of getting real recommendations for fixing the problems.
34:46
Gary Keller: The recent proposal by the aviation industry to work eight more years on finding a miracle fuel will mean 8 million more pounds of lead on our children.
34:57
Gary Keller: We don't need any more testing. We already have compelling results of elevated blood blood levels in children.
35:05
Gary Keller: I was watching in the early 1970s when the Clean Air Act and the EPA helped take away from automobile feel the lead.
35:14
Gary Keller: I am still watching 50 years later, and there is still limited feel being used, please put the 'P' back into the EPA and put a stop to this continuous poisoning of our children. Finish the job your agency started, thank you.
36:13
[Saul J. Lopez, City of Omaha] Saul J Lopez, City of Omaha: Thank you, my name is Saul Lopez, and I work for the City of Omaha. Specifically the lead -- the City of Omaha lead Superfund Site which is famous around the country for being the largest residential site.
36:28
Saul J Lopez, City of Omaha: Just wanna-- I just want to take the opportunity to highlight the
36:33
Saul J Lopez, City of Omaha: importance of working with community-based organizations here at the city level, we have tried and we have connected with
36:41
Saul J Lopez, City of Omaha: neighborhood associations and we're currently working on making sure that we connect with community-based organizations and my only request would be that if you could consider and
36:52
Saul J Lopez, City of Omaha: free grant monies for small community-based organizations that can help disperse the information
37:00
Saul J Lopez, City of Omaha: about this topic which is very important, specifically for those those low and medium income families that live in houses where children are exposed to lead based paint or lead in soil. I believe that there is
37:16
Saul J Lopez, City of Omaha: that having knowledge and understanding of the impact of lead exposure will help these families have access and
37:25
Saul J Lopez, City of Omaha: resources to avoid that problem for their children, and I believe that, at the same time, we have to do it in a manner, where they can be confident that information they get is in a
37:38
Saul J Lopez, City of Omaha: way that they can fully understand. For instance, we have worked with a Latino Community here in Omaha.
37:46
Saul J Lopez, City of Omaha: We have a large immigrant community of refugees as well, and we just want to make sure that that we reach out to all of these communities, but
37:55
Saul J Lopez, City of Omaha: I think one of the biggest challenges, and what I have what I have learned is that community-based organizations, they lack the funding opportunities to do their work. I would just highlight how important it is to have
38:09
Saul J Lopez, City of Omaha: projects like the community health worker where you will have people from their own communities to go in and talk and educate families
38:17
Saul J Lopez, City of Omaha: about the importance of this topic. So I just want to thank the EPA for the great work that is being done in regards to
38:27
Saul J Lopez, City of Omaha: lead exposures and minimizing lead exposures for families here in Omaha and in the country, but at the same time, I also want to request that the community health worker model needs to be given more attention and empower the communities that need help.
38:45
Saul J Lopez, City of Omaha: That'll be it for now.
41:46
[Miki Barnes, Private Citizen] Miki: Hello, can you hear me?
41:50
Miki: Thank you so much, and thank you for hearing my comments I've offered comments at a number of these meetings about concerns over lead pollution
42:00
Miki: by airports and piston engine aircraft, but tonight, I want to look at a different issue and that is, I spoke with a pediatrician this morning, who talked about the difficulty he
42:15
Miki: encounters when he's doing blood blood level testing on his children, his patients and the problem is that a number of labs don't measure lead
42:30
Miki: beyond a certain level, maybe
42:35
Miki: three micrograms per deciliter but you know when it gets down to two or one, and we know even those very low levels of lead, can have a negative effect on children, and adults. There's concern about how are we going to get accurate information on the
42:57
Miki: the
42:59
Miki: scope of this.
43:02
Miki: Lead poisoning and lead exposure elevated blood lead levels, without that kind of testing. And I'm wondering if the EPA through this lead strategy could identify labs who will measure that will measure blood blood levels, even at very, very low levels.
43:24
Miki: And have it be uniform across the country so that the data bank is accurate and captures what is really going on in this country and how many children and adults are really being exposed to lead.
43:40
Miki: The second concern, I want to raise is there's a lot of inconsistency medicaid requires children to be tested at age 12 months and 24 months, but a lot of states don't do that.
43:54
Miki:That we don't have the data bank of the testing, so it seems like it needs to be a federal requirement, rather than a choice of a state.
44:06
Miki: And, and I, you know I don't begin to understand the funding issues involved but lead is a serious serious toxin with potentially irreversible impacts so getting a handle on this by,
44:23
Miki: through required testing and through labs that can measure
44:29
Miki: lead even at low levels, I think is very important, so thank you so much appreciate your time.
44:51
[Madeline Middlebrooks, Great Rivers Environmental Law Center] Madeline (Great Rivers): Yes, thank you Hello everyone, my name is Madeline Middlebrooks and I'm a staff attorney at Great River Environmental Law Center based in St Louis, Missouri.
45:00
Madeline (Great Rivers): I work with various coalitions and community members, focusing on lead contamination issues in the State of Missouri, in the St Louis region, particularly.
45:08
Madeline (Great Rivers): I thank you for the opportunity to speak, and we will also submit written comments. The coalition I
45:13
Madeline (Great Rivers): work for, we really support funding for lead remediation in schools. Karisa spoke earlier, we work together.
45:19
Madeline (Great Rivers): And we hope that our communities can go to school and be protected from lead. We have instances in St Louis, Missouri where lead results have been as high as 800 parts per billion.
45:31
Madeline (Great Rivers): And I often talk to school districts, the main remediation practice is flushing, so we hope that the funding opportunity clearly states
45:39
Madeline (Great Rivers): which type of remediation practices are going to protect children and make it very clear and which terms are short term fixes and we specifically advocate for using filtration systems
45:50
Madeline (Great Rivers): and removing outdated plumbing fixtures, and so we hope that is expressed clearly.
45:55
Madeline (Great Rivers): We also support identifying communities with higher blood levels addressing their needs, first as the strategy poses.
46:03
Madeline (Great Rivers): And we hope that the identification process also takes into consideration communities with hyper vacancy problems.
46:09
Madeline (Great Rivers): St Louis City has over hundreds and hundreds of vacant buildings, that are more susceptible to demolitions, and these are
46:16
Madeline (Great Rivers): usually older homes, with a lot of lead based paint and materials in them and we get calls in the law Center all the time
46:23
Madeline (Great Rivers): about an old building going down. Communities are concerned about what's in their air, they're concerned that you know the Lead is covering their soil and also community gardens.
46:31
Madeline (Great Rivers): So we requested those places, along with the others that have been identified in the strategy, or taken into consideration with cities like St Louis with a hyper vacancy problem.
46:40
Madeline (Great Rivers): We also would like the strategy to include prioritizing communities with high levels of lead in drinking water by using the standard set out in the new LCRR
46:51
Madeline (Great Rivers): that requires testing for schools. We think, testing, we think testing results in schools, gives a better characteristics of the water quality in their area, for instance, our community always tests below
47:03
Madeline (Great Rivers): really three parts per billion under the Lead and Copper Rule standards, currently, but yet we see those elevated levels in our schools and older homes, and so we just hope that
47:13
Madeline (Great Rivers): the identification process goes further than the metrics of you know, did you did your water system have a violation under the
47:21
Madeline (Great Rivers): Lead and Copper Rule? And that concludes my comments like I said we're going to submit written comments and we just thank you for the opportunity to speak today.
48:09
[Amy Roberts, Kansas City Missouri Health Department] Amy Roberts: This is amy Roberts I apologize guys for being late, I was having some technical difficulties as I'm on my phone and not my desktop.
48:19
Amy Roberts: I'm the program manager for the Kansas city Missouri Health Department Lead Poisoning Prevention and Healthy Homes Program and we have a plan to to submit written recommendations.
48:34
Amy Roberts: But I just wanted to touch on a couple things since we're talking this evening.
48:39
Amy Roberts: We would like to see some recommendations for testing, not only at six months to 72 months but three months to nine years, because we are seeing some disparities, particularly in Latinx children, where we'll see a threefold increase in blood levels with children under six months.
49:06
Amy Roberts: And additionally our lead poisoned children we're seeing some
49:11
Amy Roberts: lead poisoned kids who have been exposed at younger ages, but continue to be significantly elevated at six, seven, eight, and nine years old.
49:24
Amy Roberts: We would also recommend funding for lead paint remediation for families.
49:31
Amy Roberts: That include children over five years of age. Right now HUD lead remediation programs require that kids --families have children under six and that doesn't include the sixth year and so that gap can be pretty significant when we're trying to help families with lead poisoned kids.
49:55
Amy Roberts: In addition, we definitely support everyone-- EPA and everyone else who has talked about strengthening lead regulations in the Lead and Copper Rule and the Clean Air Act.
50:06
Amy Roberts: And definitely we support programs to address plumbing and fixtures in remediation. That's something that in our current grant we have a minimal amount of funding that is available and it's just not enough and it is not -- it's included in our healthy homes funding, but not our lead funding.
50:30
Amy Roberts: Additionally, we support
50:33
Amy Roberts: updating safety procedures for demolitions, which somebody else
50:38
Amy Roberts: made a recommendation for as well, and again I agree with everyone else and appreciate the opportunity to speak and
50:47
Amy Roberts: appreciate the well organized and thorough
50:53
Amy Roberts: moderating.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

FERC-725G1

    Title: Mandatory Reliability Standards for the Bulk-Power System:
Reliability Standard PRC-004-6.
    OMB Control No.: 1902-0284.
    Type of Request: Three-year extension of the FERC-725G1 information
collection requirements.
    Abstract: The Commission collects information under FERC-725G1 in
accordance with section 215 of the Federal Power Act (FPA) \1\ and 18
CFR parts 39 and 40. Section 215 of the FPA gives the Commission and
the North American Electric Reliability Corporation (as the Commission-
approved Electric Reliability Organization) to establish and enforce
reliability standards for all users, owners, and operators of the bulk-
power system.\2\ Once approved, the Reliability Standards may be
enforced by the Electric Reliability Organization subject to Commission
oversight, or by the Commission independently.\3\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 16 U.S.C. 824o.
    \2\ As defined at 16 U.S.C. 824o(a)(1) and 18 CFR 39.1, the term
``bulk-power system'' means facilities and control systems necessary
for operating an interconnected electric energy transmission network
(or any portion thereof), and electric energy from generating
facilities needed to maintain transmission system reliability. The
term does not include facilities used in the local distribution of
electric energy.
    \3\ 16 U.S.C. 824o(e).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Reliability Standard PRC-004-6 requires transmission owners,
generator owners, and distribution providers to identify and correct
causes of misoperations of certain protection systems for bulk-power
system elements. It also requires retention of evidence of
misoperations for a minimum of 12 calendar months.
    Types of Respondents: Transmission Owners, Generator Owners, and
Distribution Providers for FERC-725G1. Transmission Owners and
Distribution Providers for FERC-725G4.
    Frequency of Response: On occasion.
    Estimate of Annual Burden: The Commission estimates 703 responses
annually, and per-response burdens of 16.5 hours and $1,435.50.\4\ The
total estimated burdens per year are 703 responses, 11,599.5 hours, and
$1,009,156.50. These burdens are itemized in the following table:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ Using the May 14, 2021 NERC compliance registration
information for entities that are Generator Owners, Transmission
Owners, and Distribution Providers (in the U.S.), the number of
potential respondents is 1,405, taking into account overlap between
functions. However, not every entity will have a misoperation event
during a year. Based on our previous experience with this
information collection, we are estimating that approximately half of
the 1,405 potential respondents annually will have a reportable
misoperation, i.e., 703 responses per year for FERC-725G1.

FERC-725G4

    \5\ Commission staff estimates that the average industry hourly
cost for this information collection is approximated by the current
FERC 2021 average hourly costs for wages and benefits, i.e., $87.00/
hour.

    Title: Mandatory Reliability Standards: Reliability Standard PRC-
010-2 (Undervoltage Load Shedding).
    OMB Control No.: 1902-0282.
    Type of Request: Three-year extension of the FERC-725G4 information
collection requirements.\6\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ If OMB renews FERC-725G4, the Commission subsequently may
consider requesting that OMB combine that information collection
activity with FERC-725G1. Such action would be administrative only
and would not indicate the discontinuation of the information
collection requirements in FERC-725G4.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Abstract: The Commission collects information under FERC-725G4 in
accordance with section 215 of the FPA and 18 CFR parts 39 and 40.
Reliability Standard PRC-010-2 requires respondents to submit date-
stamped documentation of their compliance with the relevant UVLS
Program.\7\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ ``Load shedding'' means disconnecting consumers from the
grid to prevent demand from exceeding supply, which can cause
widespread grid collapse. A ``UVLS Program'' provides for automatic
load shedding, utilizing voltage inputs, in specific circumstances
and locations.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Types of Respondents: UVLS Entities.\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ ``UVLS Entities,'' as defined at the NERC website at https://www.nerc.com/pa/Stand/Reliability%20Standards/PRC-010-2.pdf, are
distribution providers and transmission owners responsible for the
ownership, operation, or control of UVLS equipment, as required by a
UVLS Program.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Frequency of Response: On occasion.
    Estimate of Annual Burden: The Commission estimates 25 responses
annually, and per-response burdens of 48 hours and $4,176.\9\ The total
estimated burdens per year are 25 responses, 1,200 hours, and $104,400.
These burdens are itemized in the following table:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ Using the May 14, 2021 NERC compliance registration
information for entities that are Transmission Owners and
Distribution Providers (in the U.S.), the number of potential
respondents is 494, taking into account overlap between functions.
However, not every entity has an undervoltage load shedding program.
Approximately five percent of the potential respondents have such a
program. Therefore, we estimate 25 responses per year for FERC-
725G4.

    Comments are invited on: (1) Whether the collection of information
is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the
Commission, including whether the information will have practical
utility; (2) the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden and
cost of the collection of information, including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used; (3) ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information collection; and (4) ways to
minimize the burden of the collection of information on those who are
to respond, including the use of automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.
